Her Husband's Secret Affair novel Chapter 10

Adam couldn’t stop himself from grinning as he strolled out of the office early. Today was going to be different.

Today, he was going to make things right with Sophie. She deserved better than what he’d given her lately, and he was determined to fix it.

In his pocket sat the bracelet he had picked out earlier—a simple yet elegant piece adorned with tiny diamonds. It was perfect for Sophie, understated but meaningful, much like her.

Adam imagined her reaction, her smile softening the tension that had clouded their home lately.

The memory of their argument replayed in his mind as he got into his car. She had every right to be upset, but today, he was going to show her that he was all in, that she mattered more than anything.

His phone buzzed, interrupting his thoughts. Brenda.

Adam scowled, his good mood faltering. He didn’t want to deal with Brenda’s antics right now. Whatever it was, it could wait. Sophie was his priority.

The phone buzzed again, then again, each notification gnawing at his resolve. He sighed and reached for his phone, scrolling through the messages.

“If you care about Sophie, you’ll come to my house. Now.”

Adam frowned, unease creeping into his chest. Why would Brenda bring up Sophie? Why would she demand he come to her house?

His first instinct was to ignore it, to brush off whatever game she was playing. But something about the message felt different.
