Chapter 51 The Wife
The Wife
I took the day off work today and am sitting outside his office building, waiting for him to leave.
When he does, I go inside carrying lunch for him and tell his assistant I came to surprise him.
She apologizes and says he’s not in. I ask if I can leave it for him in his office and she says yes, although she looks at me a bit suspiciously and tells me she doesn’t know when he’ll be coming back.
I rarely come to the office, and I’ve never brought him lunch.
But I’m getting desperate for answers, and this was the only plan I could come up with to see if he’s hiding anything here.
I shut the door and go straight for his laptop.
I quickly scan his email, but it all looks like business emails.
He is a stickler for cleaning out his inbox, so there aren’t too many.
Next, I open some folders on his desktop here and there, one eye on the door, hoping she doesn’t come barging in to see what’s taking me so long.
I open his browser and search the history.
I scroll down and stop when I see the link for the marketing firm.
I click it, and the company address comes up.
I write it down. I go down the rest of the list, and my hand freezes.
He’s been searching legal statutes for custody.
If he thinks he’s going to take our son away from me, he’s crazy.
