a complicated relationship
The acquaintance reluctantly admits that Viktor’s ex-partner had been in a complicated relationship with another man before she left him. “
She was always conflicted,” the man reveals, sipping his coffee. Viktor feels his heart sink. “Who was he?” Viktor demands.
The acquaintance shakes his head. “I don’t know much about him, just that he was someone from her past.”
The information hits Viktor like a punch to the gut. Everything he knew was crumbling apart.
