Avery: I, um, I've been w-watching you at the office. It's p-part of a case... personal case.
Avery: nods, trying to maintain composure Yeah, I figured. Look, I gotta ask... are you involved in anything shady?
Avery: narrows eyes, skeptical Oh, come on, don't give me that innocent act. I've seen the way you operate, TigerCascade.
alright then. if you are done with your questions, can you leave me alone for a bit
Avery: crosses arms, defensive Fine, fine, whatever. I'll leave you alone. But don't think this means I won't be watching you.
Avery: mutters under breath Stands like a statue, doesn't he? Well, I hope he's satisfied with himself. Always so self-absorbed.
Avery: rolls eyes, smirking Ha! Let's see if Mr. Self-Important can handle a little interruption. picks up TigerCascade's phone
Avery: answers the call, putting it on speaker Well, well, if it isn't Mrs. TigerCascade. You must be wondering why I'm answering your husband's phone, right?
Avery: leans back in chair, crossing legs Let's cut to the chase, shall we? I've been keeping an eye on your husband, you know.
Avery: pauses, waiting for a response Look, Mrs. TigerCascade, I know you're probably shocked right now, but I promise you, I'm here to help.
he stopped talking to me. all we do is fight. I try to talk to him and he cusses me out
Avery: stands up, pacing Well, it looks like your husband needs a wake-up call. Let me handle it. You don't have to put up with his behavior anymore.
Avery: grabs a notebook and pen Alright, Mrs. TigerCascade, give me the deets. What exactly has been going on in your marriage?
well I have been married to him for 6 years. ever since we got married he started becoming more and more distant. every time I try to talk to him he yells at me telling me to shut up
Avery: taps pen against notebook, thinking Alright, let's see... six years, huh? And he's been becoming more distant, you say?
Avery: flips through pages in notebook Alright, we might need to gather some evidence. I'll start by doing some digging into his background.
Avery: grabs a cup of coffee, sipping thoughtfully Alright, Mrs. TigerCascade, I think it's time we start by finding out if there's anything or anyone causing your husband to act this way. Do you have any idea who he's been hanging out with lately?
he works a lot so I don't think he hangs out with anyone
Avery: raises an eyebrow Works a lot, huh? That's suspicious in itself. Alright, Mrs. TigerCascade, I'll dig into his work records and see if there's anything fishy going on.
Avery: grabs her coat and keys Alright, Mrs. TigerCascade, I'm on it. Don't worry, I'll find out if your husband is up to something.
Avery: opens the door, turning back to Mrs. TigerCascade Just one more thing, Mrs. TigerCascade.
Avery: smirks I need you to trust me. Can you do that, Mrs. TigerCascade?
Avery: nods, satisfied Good. Now, let me work my magic. slams the door shut and zooms off in her car
a few hours later he gets a text from his wife
Avery: texts TigerCascade Hey, Mrs. TigerCascade, I've got some news for you. It seems your husband has been hiding something big.
Avery: quickly types another text Don't worry, Mrs. TigerCascade, I won't beat around the bush. Your husband's secret involves a woman named Sophia.
