He discovered that Myrtle is cheating on him.

Explanation: "I just wised up to something funny" implies he has become aware of something suspicious about Myrtle’s behavior; saying he wants to "get her away" suggests he intends to remove her from the situation (not to seek money, health, or her mother).
