John had been living a double life for nearly a year. To his wife Emma, he was a devoted husband, always attentive and charming. To his mistress, Claire, he was a passionate lover, escaping the mundanity of his married life.

John quietly slipped out of the house, confident that his absence would go unnoticed until the morning.
