...should have seen it coming. Selene's always had her eye on him."

Anya's hands clenched into fists at her sides, her blood boiling at the insinuation. Even though she believed their words were not true, she did not like their assumptions about Daniel. He was still her husband. How dare they speak of her husband in such a manner? How dare they spread lies about him without a shred of evidence? She felt her blood boil.

But as quickly as Anya's anger flared, it was replaced by a sense of calm.

So what if he was her husband? Many people had never seen her before, as Daniel never took her out with him. Why wouldn't there be rumors about them?

"...heard they were spotted together at that new restaurant downtown..."

Anya's mind raced, her thoughts spinning with the absurdity of it all. It still did not stop her from being angry. She could not say she was jealous, but she was definitely dissatisfied that her husband was being tied to some random woman.

With a deep breath, Anya pushed open the door and stepped into the main area of the spa, determined to put the gossip out of her mind and enjoy her day with Wendy.

Wendy greeted her with a warm smile, oblivious to the turmoil raging within Anya. "Are you ready for your massage, dear?" she asked, her voice filled with maternal concern.

Anya forced a smile, nodding as she tried to push aside the nagging doubts that lingered at the back of her mind. "Yes, Wendy," she replied, her voice steady. "I'm ready."

As they made their way to the massage rooms, Anya felt a sense of calm wash over her. She knew she couldn't control what others said or thought about her marriage, but she could control how she reacted to it.

He recalled the days when he suddenly became obsessed with working and got irritated by the mention of his wife's name. He himself had admitted to him that he had gotten divorced.
