Woman stumbles upon romantic messages between married mother-in-law and 22-year-old stranger while snooping on her work laptop, wrestles with how to proceed: “I have been spiraling all weekend”

Have you ever come across something that you were not supposed to see? As a really small child, I discovered a terrible secret while snooping on my parents around the holidays: Santa isn't real. I was five years old – well within the range of still believing. I found it rather suspicious how they rushed me out of the room to go play with my cousins, and when I peaked through the keyhole, I saw them wrapping presents that were later claimed to be brought by Santa Claus. I kept this secret to myself so I could receive "extra" gifts, and so that I would not break the heart of any of my still-believing friends. 

In our story today, our protagonist uncovers something a bit more spicy. She finds romantic messages in her mother-in-law's laptop – messages between her and a 22-year-old intern. To make matters worse, MIL is not just her husband's mom; she is also our protagonist's boss. Scroll down below to read all the juicy details in this story.
