Because nearly everyone in the room knew their story. Elena sat with effortless composure. Navy tailored suit. Minimal jewellery and of course, no wedding ring. She greeted the other speakers politely before placing her notes on the table. Adrian sat two seats away. He acknowledged her with a respectful nod and she returned it.

One that no longer surprised anyone.Adrian Carter stepped out of the elevator on the eighteenth floor. His office overlooked the eastern side of the city. Comfortable. Professional.
