You trusted your wife Emma, loved her deeply, but something about her upcoming business trip stirred an unsettling feeling within you. She spoke eagerly about the trip, especially the time she would be spending with her boss. There was an excitement in her voice, but for some reason, it didn’t sit right with you.
