Previously, the neighbor crossed a line with the man next door — a man with a wife, a camera, and a secret side nobody was supposed to see. That one late-night hookup turned into a quiet addiction neither of them could stop. Now, nine months later, Claire’s pregnant, the neighbor’s casually dating, and the secret is still very much alive. When Claire reads a string of messages and immediately goes into labor, things unravel fast. While she’s in the hospital, her husband comes home for a few things — and ends up giving in one more time. This chapter picks up where the confetti settled… and shows just how far they’re willing to go before it all explodes.
