There was obvious relief in Mark’s smile now. He kissed Sandra on the cheek, told her he’d probably go straight to the launch after work, and asked her not to wait up for him. Sandra left the office, knowing Mark was definitely hiding something from her.Sandra parked her sedan in her minimalist home’s garage and entered her home. “You’re back!” Janet appeared, descending the stairs. “How did it go?” “The girl with Mark is his secretary. They looked cozy,” Sandra replied, troubled. Janet frowned and shared more bad news, showing Sandra a receipt for a custom-made pair of daisy-shaped diamond earrings. “Don’t ask me how I got this.” “Oh my God.”
Sandra put a hand to her mouth. “This is for the earrings Eliza was wearing! She looked me right in the eye and told me those earrings were from her father!” Sandra crumpled the receipt into a ball and threw it down the hallway. “That brazen little witch!””We’ll confront him at his presentation tonight,” Sandra suggested. Janet arched her eyebrows .”Are you sure you want to do this at a work function?” “It seems fitting since he’s banging his secretary!” Sandra snapped.
