A Great Cheaters Story!!

I received a call from a guy who thought his wife was cheating on him. He asked if I would follow his wife after he left to go to work and see what she was up to while he was at work.
The man was convinced that as soon as he left for work she was meeting her lover and returning home just before he did in the evenings.
I took the case. The next morning I was set up on their house. As I was told, the husband left for work, the dutiful wife following him to his car, kisses him goodbye and sent him on his way.
Within an hour she was out of the house, all dressed up and in her car. I pulled out behind her and began following.
Out of the neighborhood, down the street, straight into four lane traffic and stopped by a traffic light. Two cars back I could only watch her as she pulled away. I lost her. I searched the area, checked out a couple hotels, she was gone.
That afternoon, an hour before her husband was due home from work, she pulls in, goes inside and according to the husband has dinner waiting for him. Quite the little planner.
I decided to try again the very next morning. Next day, same thing. Husband leaves and one hour later the wife was dressed and out the door. I began to follow her. This time onto the four lane I paralleled her, several blocks traveled and all is going well. Suddenly, out of no where a car stops right in front of me and blocks the road as I stop and my target keeps on going. I can not believe I have lost her again. I decide to peel off for a while and check back just before time for her to return home. Just as the day before, she arrives an hour before the husband, goes inside and makes dinner. I'm thinking, she has got it made!
A new day, determined that no matter what has to happen, I will not lose her today. Same as before, the husband leaves for work, one hour later the wife is dressed and out the door. This morning all goes well. Traffic moves in my favor, lights all green and she is positioned one car in front of my vehicle, things couldn't be more perfect.
Ten miles up the road she takes a right, ah! I think we are closing in. She takes another right and passes by a hotel but pulls into a small office complex next door. I'm thinking, she's going to stash her car and he's going to pick her up. I've seen this too many times! I park where I can observe and get some pictures.
She gets out of her vehicle and goes into the small office. Ah ha! she's going to meet someone inside.
She hangs up her coat and puts her purse in a desk drawer. What's going on? She sits down at the desk and answers the phone! Unbelievably she stays all day! End of the day, she gets up leaves the office, gets into her vehicle and drives home. She starts dinner and happily meets her husband. I am confused. I go home to think things over and decide to watch her again the next morning and see what happens.
Next day, very same thing. Husband leaves, one hour later she leaves and drives to the same office complex, gets out and goes inside, sits at the same desk and appears to be answering calls. Only thing for me to do at this point, go in. I get out and go inside, deciding to act as a customer and see what I can find out. My target greets me warmly. She explained that they are a new travel agency office and she is planning a surprise trip for her husband. He doesn't know she is working and especially doesn't know about the trip planned. She is very sweet, serious and not doing anything wrong.
I return to my office, work up a report and let the husband know what is going on. He felt really bad that he blew her surprise and suspected her of cheating. Case closed, it's good to work a case with such a happy ending!
