Tiger asked, noticing her discomfort. She took a deep breath and decided to dive in. "Tiger, I need to talk to you about something. Something that's been on my mind for a while now."

She tried to shake off the feeling of jealousy that was creeping up inside her, but it was hard.She had always known that her ex-husband had a lot of female friends, but this one was different.

Christiana nursed her whiskey, feeling its warmth spread through her body as she replayed the events of the night in her mind. She knew she had overstepped a line, and pushed things too far, and the burden of her actions was weighing heavy on her conscience. Her eyes drifted to the corner of the room, where Joseph sat nursing his own drink. Joseph, a casual acquaintance at best, had become an unwitting pawn in her reckless game.
