When clarity returned, her clothes lay nearly discarded.
Pinned against the cold wall, she pleaded hoarsely:
“Wait… Can we wait a few days?”
“Why wait?”
He’d sensed Maureen’s willingness just days prior.
Why this sudden resistance?

“How could you change your heart?”
He whispered.
The next morning.

While washing up, she saw bruise–like marks covering her neck in the mirror.
All Geoffrey’s handiwork from last night.
Foundation couldn’t conceal them.
Resigned, she changed into a high–collared blouse and let her hair down to cover the marks.

The man had sharp, cold features paired with mesmerizing eyes that could rival any A–lister.
Geoffrey matched him effortlessly; standing together, they seemed equally impressive.
Maureen couldn’t help recalling Geoffrey’s words from last night: Sabotage every project Gareth has domestically.

Geoffrey’s dark eyes turned venomous as he looked back at Maureen.
“Wife, why haven’t you mentioned this childhood friend?”

Maureen stared at him coldly.
Meeting her clear yet icy gaze, Geoffrey’s heart faltered.
He quickly looked away.
Gareth watched their interaction, suppressing his resentment and anger.
After all, Maureen remained Geoffrey’s wife, while he was merely her so–called childhood friend.
Geoffrey released Maureen and headed to the conference room with Gareth.
Maureen’s waist ached where he’d gripped her.
Wayne offered her water.
