Emily Lashes Out


Emily’s voice shook with fury as she looked at the invasion of her private life laid bare before her. “How dare you go through my things?” she snapped. “You had no right!” Mark stayed calm, but his heart was pounding. “Emily, I had every right. I needed to know what you’ve been hiding.” She pointed at the documents, dismissing them with a furious wave. “This is paranoia, not proof!”

But Mark was unmoved. “Then tell me what this all means,” he challenged, gesturing at the evidence. Emily looked cornered, her anger mixed with fear. She crossed her arms, trying to steady herself. “You don’t understand,” she muttered, eyes wide. “It’s not what you think.” Mark stared back, unwavering. “Then explain it to me. I deserve to know.” But Emily remained silent, and that silence spoke volumes.
