3AM Betrayal With The Neighbor Novel – Chapter 2
I smiled and waved goodbye to David.
But the moment I turned away, ice flooded my veins.
The man I’d loved for over ten years was cheating on me.
And it wasn’t recent.
It had been going on for months.
I’d been completely blind.

After finishing work, I asked my boss for a half-day and took a cab to David’s law firm.
I didn’t go see David.
I went to find his car.
I used my spare key and checked the dash cam.
Most footage had been deleted, except for this morning’s drive.
After David dropped me off, he took a call.
From an old friend.
“You fighting with your side piece?”
“What’s up?”
“She couldn’t reach you, so she called me.”
David’s voice stayed calm:
“I told her not to bother Claire, but she deliberately showed up this morning when I was driving Claire to work.”
His friend sounded exasperated:
“What the hell are you thinking, man? If you don’t want Claire finding out, why’d you move your affair partner into the apartment upstairs?”
David went quiet for a moment, then said softly:
“Claire’s still recovering from her leg injury.”
“I… can’t trust anyone else to take care of her.”
His friend sighed.
“You know what Claire went through with her parents, how sensitive she is… Whatever, just watch yourself.”
“Yeah. I know.”
I stared at the blank screen, my mind numb.

That evening, I called David and told him I’d be staying at my friend Maya’s place. He didn’t need to pick me up.
He still offered to drive me there.
I declined.
David’s voice carried a hint of hurt:
“Why?”
“Baby… don’t you need me anymore?”
“I’ll just drop you off and leave. I promise I won’t bother you two.”
“Maya’s already coming to get me.”
“Okay… but promise you’ll come home early? I can’t sleep without you next to me.”
My chest tightened. I forced myself to agree.
Before getting out of the cab, I hid a voice recorder under his car seat.

Midnight
David’s car finally returned.
The passenger door opened. A girl stepped out.
She reached for David’s sleeve, smiling up at him as she spoke.
Then David pulled her into his arms, pressed her against the car door, and kissed her hard.
Her hand slipped inside David’s belt. His body tensed, and the next second he carried her into the apartment building.
I stood frozen, my heart crushed in someone’s fist. I could barely breathe.
I opened the car door. Everything inside looked… clean, normal.
I found the recorder and hit play.

After work, David had called the girl, telling her to wait at school.
The moment she got in the car, he asked:
“What do you want for dinner tonight?”
Her voice was syrup-sweet:
“I want to eat you.”
“Behave. I’m driving.”
“David, I wore the lingerie you bought me today. Do you like it?”
“Yes.”
“Liar! You didn’t even look properly!”
David sounded helpless:
“I’m driving!”
“Then pull over! I’ve been thinking about you all day, and you won’t even glance at me.”
David said nothing.
Soon, the car stopped.
Click—David’s belt buckle opened.
He roughly tore off her bra. Her full breasts bounced in the air.
The man bit down on her pink nipple.
She gasped loudly.
Then came the static of clothes rubbing together.
“Your body missed me, didn’t it?”
The girl was now naked, straddling David’s lap.
She giggled and moaned.
David said nothing—
Only heavy breathing.
Then her voice trembled with moans:
“I’m sorry, David. I won’t appear around your wife again, ah… I promise I’ll behave… just please don’t ignore me.”
David’s thrusts became more violent, his voice turning low and rough:
“Good.”
