Adeline watched him suspiciously. "What are you doing now?"
Alex scrolled through his phone, his hands slightly trembling.
Soon, the CCTV footage from his office appeared on the screen.
Adeline stared at it, stunned.
"Oh," she said bitterly, "now you want to show me evidence of how openly you conduct affairs? With your mistress? With your so-called girlfriend?"
Her words felt like a blade.
Alex flinched as if stabbed. "Please," he said hoarsely. "Just give me five minutes. Watch the video. Then decide."
Adeline clenched her fists, anger still burning. Yet as she forced herself to watch, her rational mind slowly returned.
'If they were truly together,' she thought, 'why would Tanya hide it for months? Why appear only now?'
The footage continued.
She saw Tanya glance sideways before pretending to fall, her eyes briefly glimmering as though she had spotted someone outside the door.
Realization struck.
