His Claims Novel

When the protagonist discovers her coworker Klaus has bought her lingerie in her exact size, she confronts him about the inappropriate gift. Klaus seems surprised by her negative reaction and asks if she doesn't like them. Attempting to deflect his attention, she claims to have a boyfriend who wouldn't approve. Klaus responds by laughing uncontrollably at her statement, as if she's told an absurd joke. His demeanor then shifts dramatically to something stern and threatening. He declares that if she truly had a boyfriend, that person would already be dead, and warns that if he discovers such a relationship exists, he won't hesitate to kill him in front of her. Shocked by his disturbing proclamation, she calls him sick while continuing her futile attempts to escape his grip.
