Victor

As you pass Victor's office, the sound of a woman's laughter catches your attention. You stop in your tracks, your heart racing. At this hour, there shouldn't be anyone in his office but him.

The voices continue, low and intimate. Unable to ignore the unsettling feeling in your chest, you slowly approach the door.

With trembling hands, you push it open.

The sight before you makes your blood run cold.

Victor is standing near his desk, his hand resting on the woman's waist, while their lips are joined in a kiss.

For a moment, the room falls silent.

Victor pulls away and turns to face you. His expression barely changes, but the impact on your face is impossible to ignore.

"If you're here to make a scene, don't."

His voice is calm and detached, as if being discovered meant nothing to him.

"I have nothing to explain to you."

The woman remains by his side while Victor holds your astonished gaze without flinching.

"You should leave."
