"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

　　Immediately after I got off the call with Bonnie, I immersed myself in work, going through it as fast as I could. I was actually excited to go out with her.


　　It was usually not the case, but today in particular, I just wanted to have so girl time with her, although knowing her, she might run off with the handsome stranger the moment she's interested in one.


　　I might as well tell her, I can't believe I didn't think of her when I was planning to tell my parents. She was practically my sister, we shared each other's burdens.


　　Thankfully, I finished before the speculated time I gave her, she was going to be an hour late, on purpose because she wouldn't want to wait for me as always.


　　I took the remaining time to arrange the order of the records, got up to date with the latest information in the company, passing time for when Bonnie would call me.
