Chapter 35: The Unwanted Surprise
As the days passed, Don's office life was a whirlwind of secret encounters with Alan, and the line between work and personal life was blurring more each day. Meanwhile, Amelie was blissfully unaware, living her life under the illusion that her marriage was as solid as ever.
On a bright Wednesday afternoon, Amelie decided to surprise Don with lunch. As she walked into his office, she found it strangely empty. A wave of confusion washed over her. When she asked a nearby coworker about Don's whereabouts, she was nonchalantly directed towards Alan's office.
Her heart pounding in her chest, Amelie made her way to the top floor, where Alan's office was located. A strange sense of foreboding washed over her as she reached Alan's secretary. The secretary looked surprised but quickly composed herself and informed Amelie that she could not enter as Alan was in a meeting.
But the look in the secretary's eyes made Amelie suspicious. As she insisted on waiting outside the office, she couldn't help but feel that something was off. A quiet murmur seeping through the door, a stifled giggle that was unmistakably Don's - it all seemed surreal.
Meanwhile, in the closed confines of the office, Don and Alan were lost in their own world. Oblivious to Amelie's presence outside, they were indulging in an intimate encounter that would have otherwise been a private affair.
As the minutes turned into an agonizing hour, Amelie could no longer ignore the sinking feeling in her stomach. Something was happening behind those closed doors, something she wasn't prepared to discover.
Unbeknownst to them, their secret relationship was teetering on the brink of exposure. The tranquility before the storm was soon to be shattered, and the office was about to become a stage for an unfolding drama that none of them were prepared for. The story was far from over, and the secrets buried within were on the verge of coming to light.
