"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

　　"Elsie I'm sorry I didn't tell you, I just didn't want to sound like I didn't care about your divorce."


　　"Bonnie, don't take it the wrong way, I'm not accusing you, I just wanted to know okay."


　　She nodded as she hugged me, she held me tight and I knew it wasn't just to make me feel better, it was also to calm herself from the emotion surging through her.


　　"Trust me I wanted to, I wanted to but I also didn't want to make you feel bad."


　　"No it's not, let me explain myself, especially when you said you don't want Albie and just wanted to be alone."


　　That's right, I didn't want Albie but at the moment, he took my mind off things and kept me occupied so I wouldn't mind letting him distract me. At least till I was over this whole Daniel's infidelity.


　　"Bonnie, I'm sorry if my mood made it hard for you to share your happiness with me, I should be happy for you regardless of my situation."
