I\u2019d had enough. My boss had been sneaking around with the new intern for weeks, thinking no one noticed. But everyone did \u2014 the late nights, the whispered conversations, the way he suddenly cared about \u201cmentoring.\u201d I was already planning to quit, but things hit a new level when his wife called, like she always did, asking if he was \u201cbehaving.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Normally, I\u2019d lie. I\u2019d cover for him just to avoid the drama. But this time, I snapped. I told her plainly, \u201cIf you want to know where he is, come see him yourself \u2014 he\u2019s right here with the hot new intern.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n There was silence. Then she laughed \u2014 not a nervous laugh, but one of pure amusement. \u201cOh darling,\u201d she said calmly, \u201cI know. She\u2019s our niece.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n I froze. The room spun for a moment as I realized just how twisted the situation really was. Turns out, the \u201cintern\u201d everyone whispered about wasn\u2019t just some random fling \u2014 it was a family secret hiding in plain sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n That was the final straw. I packed my things the next morning, leaving behind the office drama \u2014 and one scandal that would keep tongues wagging for years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u2019d had enough.
