"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

　　As we stepped into the bar, I was positive that I made a good choice by accepting to follow her here. The atmosphere was chill, it was a respectable bar with prestigious customers.


　　As the music played softly, we found ourselves a spot in the drinking area, it had a calm undertone that felt relaxing. Bonnie always knew the best places to hang out. Ordering ourselves our respective drinks, we settled back and looked around.


　　The bar was full but because it was very big and spacious, it made the place look scanty. The place had numerous entertaining sections, including a lounge, a bar, a gambling arena, and of course the dance floor.


　　"So tell me about Granville, how was today?"


　　Albie jumped right into my mind, I wanted to mention him and how we met but I held that part from her. If she knew I even fancied him in the smallest bit, she wouldn't let me off the hook.
