Hiring a private detective
Driven by his rising paranoia, Mark hires a private investigator to monitor Emily and uncover the truth. He discovers an investigator through an internet search, quickly arranging to meet at a nearby café. At the café, Mark voices his suspicions, sharing details about Emily’s strange attitudes and her late-night phone calls. The investigator, an elderly man named Tom, listened carefully and wrote down his observations. Mark felt a spark of hope when he discovered that yet another individual was now investigating Emily’s actions.
Strange discoveries reported
The researcher presented a report full of intriguing findings, including his interactions with various strangers and the persistence of large monetary deposits. Mark listened attentively as Tom organized photos and notes on the kitchen table. Each image showed Emily in different situations, whether exchanging envelopes or conversing in low tones. Tom presented bank records showing frequent and unexplained deposits. Mark broke out in a cold sweat as he realized how intense Emily’s hidden life seemed to be.
