She wanted Jack not to say anything about what happened last Wednesday between her and him that If I found out about it our relationship would be over. (context: The husband is saying this sentence with the doubt of his wife cheating on him)
Is the sentences correct? and is the would used as a second conditional or an indirect speech of 'will'? Thanks.

She wanted Jack not to say anything about what happened last Wednesday between her and him that If I found out about it our relationship would be over. It is incorrect at the highlighted area. The word "that" suggests that you meant to join the clauses somehow (though "that" alone will not do this), but the capital of "If" seems to indicate the intention to start a new sentence.
