chapter 41: His Hidden Obsession

The soft hum of machinery filled the air, low and almost hypnotic. Then, with a faint click, the chandelier above flickered to life, casting a silver glow over the space.For a moment, I thought it was just a passageway—a shortcut leading somewhere else. But as the light spread, the shadows melted away, revealing something far more striking.This wasn’t a passage.It was a restroom.No—more than that.My heart pounded as I took it all in. This wasn’t just a place to freshen up; it was a quiet display of wealth and power. Every inch of it felt intentional, untouched, as if nothing ever moved unless it was meant to.To the left, a long, sleek rack held an immaculate collection of tuxedos, each hanging with precision. Black, white, dark grey—every shade exuded elegance, the kind of suits worn by men who didn’t just follow rules but created themJust below, a row of polished dress shoes rested on a glass shelf, each pair lined up perfectly.

You’re leaving already?”I turned to see Linda standing a few feet away, arms crossed, her sharp eyes scanning my face like she could read every thought running through my mind.I forced a smile. “Yeah, I have to pick up my child from school—plus, I’ve got an appointment to get to.”She narrowed her eyes, stepping closer. “That’s it? You just suddenly have to go?”I tightened my grip on my bag strap. “Didn’t you hear me, Linda? That’s it. I have to go.”She studied me, her gaze piercing, like she could see right through my lie.
