"You feel so f**king good." a deep voice, one I knew all too well, grunted.
I watched my husband Daniel and my assistant Esme banging each other right on my table. My hands flew to my mouth as realization dawned on me, the shock from seeing and hearing them made me shift back, stumbling against the table, and I pushed the chair backward.
"Did you hear that?"
I quickly dodged and stepped back from the glass view.
"What?" Daniel hissed impatiently.
"I think I heard-" Esme trailed off, "Never mind, just hurry up already."
"No need to rush, there is still time before the b*tch lands." His statement was like a slap to my face, my ears were ringing.
"Really?"
"Yes, baby, a few more rounds for us."
"Once she's back, I can't have you." 
"I know, but it's just for a while, you know it's you I love, it's her money that's keeping me."
Their mixed chuckle ran across the room, traveled up my nerves, and made my heart sink to my stomach. 
***
When Elsie uncovers the affair between her husband and her trusted assistant, her world shatters. The dual betrayal by the man she loved for years and the assistant she relied on leave her devastated and nearly hopeless.
But after the initial shock, Elsie regains her strength. She contacts a lawyer to prepare for divorce and makes a bold move- switching jobs and joining the company of her longtime rival, Albie.

What starts as a search for solace turns into something much more dangerous. Albie's relentless pursuit leaves Elsie feeling increasingly drawn to him, despite her resolve. Will she lose herself in a passion she never expected, or find a new path to healing?

Divorced My Cheating Husband and Remarried My Rival

　　Stopping in my tracks, I held my breath and relaxed my shoulders. Why didn't I just go back to the room? Now it was going to be hard to get away.


　　"Oh Hi." I forced a fake smile and turned to face the direction that called my name.


　　To the least of my surprise, I saw my colleagues, who were seated at a table at the far end of the bar. They all looked excited and happy to see me as they joked together.


　　With a bit more cheering from the group with smiles and encouragement to join them, I had no choice but to do so. Despite my issue with Albie, the group was a cheerful bunch who were fun to hang out with, and refusing to join might come off in the wrong way.


　　"Come on let's go join them, they aren't your co workers?" Bonnie asked as she held my hand.


　　"Then why are you finding it so hard to accept."
