I persistently rang the doorbell for an extended period before Riley finally emerged to answer the door

“Debra? When did you get out of the hospital?”
Riley’s eyes appeared reddened and slightly swollen, suggesting that she had been crying for a considerable duration.
“Riley, what happened?” I inquired with genuine concern in my voice.

Debra’s POV:
Riley shook her head, pursed her lips, and didn’t answer me. She simply ushered me into the house.
After she sat me down, she poured me a cup of coffee. Even though her head was lowered, I could see the tears at the corners of her eyes.
“I’m afraid we don’t have dessert. Have some coffee first,” Riley said in a low, shaky voice.
When she was pouring the tea, I noticed that her hands were trembling uncontrollably, so I quickly reached out to stop her.
“Riley, just tell me. What happened?”
I looked at Riley with concern, trying to convey with my eyes that she could talk to me.
Riley bit her lip and seemed to be fighting back her tears. What I said seemed to remind her of something terrible. In the end, she lost the battle and burst into tears.
I quickly reached for a napkin and began to dab at Riley’s tears for her.
‘m so sad, Debra.” Riley sobbed uncontrollably. “Adam has a new mistress. He even took her home when I was away.”

“What?” I was so shocked that my eyes went as wide as saucers. “He cheated on you? And he brought his mistress home?”
God damn it all! Adam had gone too far! He didn’t take his wife seriously at all.
Riley nodded tearfully. “I know because I found her earring when I got home.”
As she spoke, she shakily took out an earring from her pocket and handed it to me.
Upon a closer look, I saw that it was an orange diamond earring, which sparkled under the Light.
Somehow, the earring looked familiar to me, as though I had seen it somewhere.
“After I found the earring, I showed it to Adam and questioned him, but he refused to admit to his infidelity and even beat me.” Riley frowned and cried bitterly.
Only then did I notice the faint, blue bruises on Riley’s shoulder and neck. There were so many, and they looked terrible. It could be seen that whoever assaulted her did not show any mercy.
Adam was a terrible husband. Not only did he cheat on his wife, but he even took his Lover home when Riley wasn’t around. And when Riley went to confront him, he beat her. What a shameless bastard!
I was so angry that I couldn’t stand it anymore.
With gritted teeth, I held Riley’s hand tightly and said, “Riley, things can’t go on like this. It will only make Adam worse.”
