"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

　　The weight of his head lay on me, it wasn't heavy but also not light, I could feel the pressure as his soft skin was in contact with mine.


　　The area where he rested his head burned with heat, the heat started just around there but soon enough it spread like wildfire throughout my whole body making me feel hot and clammy.


　　With that single act, the space between us was covered, we were practically squished together, making it very hard for me not to inhale his cologne. Unlike the first time he sat, the scent coming from his body now had a linger of alcohol.


　　It was his scent with a touch of whiskey, it made me wonder what he would taste like if we kissed if I risked it and our lips touched, the thought made me unconsciously lick my lips.


　　Only Albie had that power, he was the only man who could make the most unconventional things look attractive. It was part of him, he made you draw your attention to even the most flimsy of things about him.
