Chapter 1

As I was washing Chloe’s underwear, I found a hole in it.

A cigarette burn.

But I quit smoking over a year ago.

There was a tiny hole on the lace trim of the underwear, so small you wouldn’t notice it unless you really looked.

With five years of smoking behind me, I instantly recognized that yellowish, charred circle. It was definitely a cigarette burn.

My heart lurched.

I’d quit smoking ages ago, and Chloe definitely didn’t smoke.

Could someone please explain what the hell was going on?

I stood there in the bathroom, holding the underwear, my mind racing.

The more I thought, the more wrong it felt.

And the more I thought, the more I felt my blood boil.

Just then, Chloe sent me a SnapChat message.

“Babe, I’m working late again tonight. You go to bed first~”
