His Affair, My Glue, Their Screams at 2 AM novel Chapter 4

"I thought you weren't coming tonight. You're so bold. Aren't you afraid she'll find out?"

A woman's voice came from the guest room.

My heart suddenly contracted.

Breathing became difficult.

This—

It was our postpartum nanny Lisa's voice.

Lisa was the nanny Mark had chosen for me.

She always dressed modestly, hair casually tied in a low ponytail, face almost bare of makeup.

Although about my age, she was always proper and respectful.

Besides caring for me and the baby, she mostly kept to her room, minimizing contact with Mark.

So I never suspected her.

The rustling sound of clothes being removed brought me back to reality.

Mark's voice was full of urgency, like a beast starved for too long.

"She's sleeping like a dead pig. Lisa, let me feel you, I'm dying here."

Lisa's tone held a hint of unease.

"I thought I heard her asking what if you were cheating? Is she suspicious?"

But Mark was completely unconcerned.

His tone was utterly confident, as if everything was under his control.

"Don't worry, she trusts me completely. I could climb into your bed every night and she'd only worry I'm working too hard."

"You're so bad..." Lisa's voice softened, mixed with moans.

"Isn't that why you like me?"

...

Their conversation was like a dull knife.

Cutting into my heart one slice at a time.

It hurt so much!

They dared to do this in my home!

Next to my child!

Such filth!

I wanted to rush in and stab them both!
