Chapter 3

Later, I turned on the camera in Patricia's car.

"I told you not to call me today," she said sharply.

The man chuckled, "I missed you."

"Ugh, you're so smooth-talking," Patricia replied, her tone playful. "I'm heading to the office. Wait for me there."

"We could go to a hotel," the man suggested.

"It's too risky. Leopold has friends around here. Fine. I'll make it up to you later," Patricia cooed him for a while before hanging up.

Her car pulled into the project department.

I went to a café across the street and sat in a booth by the window. From there, I could see her in her office through the window.

At some point, a man appeared in her office. His face wasn't clear, but I knew he was the one.

Patricia called me.

"Honey, are you asleep?"

I forced myself to stay calm, and I knew this wasn't the right time to confront her. "Not yet."

"Ugh, something went wrong with the handover this morning. I'll have to work late tonight."

"Don't overwork yourself," I replied, pretending to be understanding as usual.

"Okay, I'll bring you some late-night snacks when I get back. Go sleep now."

After hanging up, I watched through the window as the man grabbed her phone and tossed it aside. He pushed Patricia against the desk.

In one swift motion, he lifted her onto the desk, positioning himself between her legs.

Patricia resisted weakly, but the man walked to the window and pulled the curtains closed.

Even with the curtains drawn, their silhouettes were cast clearly against the fabric.

A sudden clap of thunder shook the sky, and heavy rain poured down.

Raindrops pelted against the windows, making a loud, rhythmic sound.

My wife was cheating on me with another man on a desk.

I sat in a private booth, holding up my phone to record the scene.

I wanted to rip them apart!

I wanted everyone to see these two despicable cheaters.

But I knew that blurry footage wouldn't be enough.

I needed to calm down and plan my next move.

As I stared at the glowing city lights outside, my mind drifted back to five years ago.
