"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

　　My inner mind screamed for the dumb sly to stop talking but I couldn't bring myself to stop him. Why would he be telling her that?


　　I felt her body froze at the statement and for a moment I was desperate to know what she thought, what would be her reaction to it?


　　I wished I could know what her thoughts were. Was she happy or disappointed to know? Everything at the moment depended on whether she would accept the information in good spirits or not.


　　I wanted to strangle George, this wasn't what I meant when I said I wished she knew about my feelings for her. Smart ass bastard, this wasn't how a woman was supposed to find out that she was loved.


　　She deserved to be seduced, lured, and enticed with the idea of being loved, only then will she on her own, decide to reciprocate the feeling.


　　If not for the fact she wasn't even giving me to opportunity to show and express myself to her, she would cut me off from even seeing her.
