---- The next day, during work hours, Lesley found me and asked what I meant by everything. "I've checked the medication. They said if I keep taking it, I won't be able to handle extreme emotions. I need to know what's going on." I showed her the surveillance footage, and her face turned pale as she watched. She started crying. "I thought maybe it was just that our feelings faded. He wanted a divorce, but I didn't. Joe said he liked the excitement and wanted me to seduce you, so he could sleep with Tess." I was stunned. I couldn't believe that Lesley, who seemed so smart, was so blinded by love. "So, you agreed?" I asked, shocked. Lesley nodded through her tears. "A divorce would bring shame to my family. As long as Joe doesn't ask for it again, I don't care what he does." I was furious. It felt like she had been playing games with me all along. "And now? Are you still helping him?" I asked, my voice sharp. ---- She shook her head, tears still welling up in her eyes. Seeing her so pitiful, I felt a rush of intense feelings. Too bad she was on her period; otherwise, I would've pinned her down and taken her. Perhaps people only ever want what they can't have. Joe and I were similar in a way, seeing as we both coveted someone else's wife. I felt that Lesley had a better figure than Tess, but it turned out that she was his type. "Well, we have evidence of their affair now, but you know, recording without consent couldn't really count as evidence. If we really want to do something about this, we have to catch them in the act. We need to get some things ready and liquidate our assets. When they have their little rendezvous again, we'll hit them where it hurts." Lesley hesitated. Seeing her like this, I felt anger rising within. What was she still hesitant about? To my surprise, she said, "Phil, I think you're much more reliable than Joe. After you and Tess divorce... could we... maybe be together?" She lowered her head, her voice quiet, "And I think ---- you're better than Joe in bed." I was taken aback. I had expected her to need time to process, but it seemed like she was already thinking ahead. I glanced at her cute, flushed face, and a part of me started to reconsider. Lesley was so much more gentle than Tess. "Let's handle the situation at hand first," I said, not wanting to give her any false hopes just yet. After all, she would lose her senses when it came to love, and I wasn't ready for that. We both proceeded with our plans, and now all we needed was the right timing.
