Her Husband's Secret Affair novel Chapter 58

Adam leaned back in his chair, exhaustion finally catching up with him. The weight of the day was pressing down on his shoulders, but his phone buzzed, pulling him out of his thoughts. He glanced at the screen: Emilia.

“Hey, Emilia,” he greeted, forcing some energy into his voice.

“Adam!” Emilia’s cheerful tone was like a burst of sunshine. “I just wanted to check in and see how you’re holding up. That was one hell of a day.”

He chuckled softly. “You can say that again. And thanks for having my back. I don’t think I could’ve done it without you.”

“Of course,” she replied warmly. “By the way, did you see the interview? It’s everywhere. The comments are pure gold. You should check them out when you have time. They’ll give you a good laugh.”

Adam rubbed his temple. “I haven’t had a chance yet. What are people saying?”

“Everything from calling Brenda a wannabe soap opera villain to praising Sophie for standing by you. It’s hilarious. Trust me, you’ll enjoy it,” Emilia said with a laugh.

Adam smiled faintly. “I’ll check it out later. Thanks again, Emilia.”

“Anytime. Take care of yourself, okay?”

“You too,” he said before hanging up.

The phone barely hit the table before it rang again. This time, it was his private investigator. Adam’s demeanor shifted instantly, his posture straightening.

“Tell me you’ve got something,” he said as he answered.

The PI’s voice was calm but firm. “I’ve got him. The guy you wanted me to find? The one you suspected might be the father of Brenda’s baby? He’s in custody.”

Adam had figured the man he once met at Brenda’s place would have a thing or two to say to help with Brenda’s case. And he had a feeling he was the father of Brenda’s baby.

So he asked his PI to track him down.

Adam’s grip on the phone tightened. “Are you sure it’s him?”

“Positive. He matches the description, and some… let’s just say, personal details line up. You’ll want to talk to him yourself to be sure.”

“Good,” Adam said, a sharp edge to his voice. “Hold him there. I’m on my way.”

The PI hesitated for a moment. “Just so you know, he doesn’t seem cooperative. Be prepared.”

Adam’s jaw tightened. “I’ll handle it.”

He grabbed his keys and headed out, determination blazing in his eyes. The drive to the hideout was tense, his mind racing with thoughts of how to handle the situation. If this man was the father, Adam needed him on their side.
