Regret

During my three-year secretive relationship with my boss, Zane Bender, we used 999 condoms. Before Zane dated me, he'd go through 20 partners per month. After he started dating me, he only bedded me and me only. He promised me that he'd give me a surprise on my birthday. I thought it was going to be a grand proposal. But the moment the clock struck 12, Zane called me. "Cassidy, buy a pack of condoms and deliver it to the 31st floor of Mavelon Hotel right now. Remember, I want the extra thin ones." At that moment, I couldn't believe my ears. Before I could react, Zane completely lost his patience. He urged, "Stop standing around! Hurry up and get over here! Lily and I are in the mood right now!" Lily Hubbard was the charming secretary who recently joined the company. My complexion turned pale instantly. "You're sleeping with her, Zane? Then… Then who am I to you?" Zane fell silent for a while. Then, he let out a soft chuckle. "You? You're just a bedwarmer who can help alleviate my urges. That's all." It turned out that the so-called surprise wasn't a proposal. It was just me fantasizing about a relationship that never existed in the first place. The pink bubbles of love and romance finally popped on my 25th birthday. After that, a car accident completely changed everything in my life. When I meet Zane again, he realizes that he can no longer win back the heart of his "pet".

Chapter 1
Cassidy's POVIn that moment, all the color drained from my face. My eyes burned red as words failed me.On the other end of the line, the amusement in the man's voice became unmistakable. He sounded like he was teasing his pet as he said, "Did you think we were a couple who were madly in love or something?"That mocking tone pushed me over the edge. I hung up without another word.The room fell back into a deathly silence, the stillness so stifling I could hardly breathe. Then, my phone lit up again.Zane Bender sent me a message. It was the location of a hotel.I stared blankly at the address for a long time, feeling as if a piece of my heart had been ripped out.That night, I didn't get a wink of sleep. Every time I closed my eyes, Zane's degrading remarks echoed in my mind.I'd met him three years ago. He was the CEO of Cosmo Group, while I had been just an intern back then.To be honest, it never even crossed my mind that I'd get into Cosmo Group, as it was one of the top

After I sat back down at my desk, I immediately saved that email address.Just then, someone knocked on my desk. I looked up and saw Zane. Instinctively, I snapped my laptop shut.Taken aback, he frowned. "Why are you so jumpy? Is there something I'm not supposed to see?"I shook my head, my tone distant. "You just startled me, Mr. Bender. What can I do for you?"My cold attitude clearly irritated him. But with other coworkers around, he held his anger back and said in a noticeably colder tone. "I wanted to ask you if you have the files ready.""I'm still working on them. I'll send everything to your email before I leave later.""Alright. Try to be quick. I'm having dinner with Lily tonight. I can't be late."With that, Zane said nothing more and headed back to his office.The moment the door closed, Kayla let out a long breath. "That scared the crap out of me. Mr. Bender looked terrifying just now. I'd never seen him act that way before."I gave a light chuckle. "What way?"

"Why didn't you call me when you got your fever?"Zane picked up a cup of warm water and handed it to me as he spoke with a tone of resignation. "Stop being upset. Take the medicine first."I turned my head away, not wanting to look at him.Zane frowned at my distant attitude. "Cassidy, have you forgotten what I told you?"I knew exactly what he was referring to. If I refused to behave, I'd be discarded by both him and Cosmo Group.Even as his expression darkened, I stuck to my stance, refusing to look at him. A scoff sounded by my ear. "Well, well. The kitten that has been cared for so long is starting to scratch people."He set the cup down on the table with a loud thud. "You refuse to reply to my messages, you ignore me, and now you won't even take your medicine. You hate me that much? Fine. If you don't take it, I won't leave."After saying that, he took off his coat and leaned back in the chair, looking prepared to wait me out.I couldn't understand him. If he didn't love

Chapter 4
There were still two days left before my interview at Vertex Group. I pushed all thoughts of Zane aside and concentrated on getting ready for the interview.After all, the interview would be conducted personally by Desmond Archer, the CEO of Vertex Group.I'd asked Kayla about him and found out that he was notoriously strict. Apparently, quite a few people had even come out of their interviews in tears.Nevertheless, I didn't have much time to prepare since Lily had dumped all her work on me.To avoid unnecessary conflict, I simply gritted my teeth and put up with it. I only needed to do it for two more days anyway.I quickly put together the slides she needed and sent them over, then barely paid attention during the meeting itself. Cosmo Group's affairs had long stopped being my concern.That was, until Lily started her presentation, and everyone in the room abruptly gasped. "What… That's ridiculous! How could someone show this in a serious meeting?""Oh my gosh! I've really se

The moment I saw the text, I could hardly believe my eyes.Zane would go this far for Lily? Kayla had always performed well and had been with Cosmo Group for years, but he wanted to fire her just like that? The only reason he would do this was that Kayla was the closest to me at work. Zane truly was a businessman, willing to do whatever it took to achieve his goals."What's wrong, Cassidy?" Kayla leaned over, concerned. I immediately shut my laptop, said it was nothing, and left the office in a hurry. Even if I felt hurt, I didn't want Kayla to risk her future for me.It was just buying coffee anyway. Besides, there was only another day left until my interview.After a quick search, I learned that the nearest cafe was about a mile away. A round trip in half an hour would be tough.When I finally got the coffee, I started hurrying back. But in my rush, checking the time as I ran, I failed to notice the speeding car.A bang sounded, and the coffee cup in my hand hit the ground,

Third-person POVAt the moment, Lily was sitting on Zane's lap.With her arms around his neck, she acted flirty as usual, but he seemed distracted.Although the doctor had told him Cassidy had no life-threatening injuries, seeing her wrapped in bandages made his hands tremble with fear. But hadn't he always just seen her as a bedwarmer?"Zane, what's up with you today?"Zane snapped out of it upon hearing her voice. Letting out a soft chuckle, he shook his head. "It's nothing. You just look so seductive today that I got a little distracted."Lily didn't notice his half-hearted tone. With a smug smile, she lifted her skirt and boldly showcased her charm.As Zane felt her touch, he suddenly found the strong scent of her perfume a bit off-putting. It reminded him of a distinctly different scent.Cassidy hardly ever wore perfume, and the few times she did, it was always a light, floral scent.Suddenly, he wasn't in the mood anymore and moved her away. "I'm not feeling up for it to

"I can tell he's totally different with that woman. Ever since Cassidy got hurt, he's been distracted, and his attitude toward me has completely changed. Even so, he doesn't seem to realize it himself."Lily grumbled, running her hands through her hair, "If I'd known it would turn out like this, I would've been more ruthless. I should've just told the driver to kill Cassidy outright. I'd already paid him a fortune anyway."Who would've thought that all he had gotten rid of was a baby? And now Zane can't stop thinking about her because of it."Zane's hand tightened around the door handle, his body frozen. He lifted his head in disbelief.Then Lily let out a light laugh. "But hey, at least he lost something, all because he looked down on a lover like me. Sooner or later, I'll make him lose even more—his company, his career, everything."She laughed as she opened the door to head to the office, but the moment she opened it, she met Zane's dark, grim face.Lily's steps faltered, her

Cassidy's POVIt had been three days since I started working at Vertex Group. As soon as I got to the company, I quickly contacted Kayla to check in on her.I had my apology ready and even some money to help her out, only to hear that Zane had called off her punishment, wanted her back at the company, and even offered her a raise.I could still distinctly remember the mocking tone Kayla used when she said that. Before, she had begged Zane not to treat her that way, yet he still kicked her out of the company without a second thought.It was at that moment that Kayla's disappointment with Zane and Cosmo Group became no less than mine.Noticing my silence, Kayla asked, "Cassidy, are you touched by his actions?"I let out a small chuckle. "No way. Even if Zane were kneeling in front of me right now, I would never go back to him."Of course, that was also something that would never happen. Never mind kneeling. Even saying that he was sorry was already asking for too much.Still, I w

Zane's presence was just as intense as before, but I was no longer afraid of him.With a blank expression, I calmly asked, "Why are you here, Mr. Bender? Do you need something from me?"Zane frowned when he picked up the coldness in my voice. But with Desmond standing right there, he just grabbed my hand hard. "We need to talk."I immediately tried to shake him off, but he was ridiculously strong. He held me so tightly, it was as if he wanted to snap my wrist.At that moment, Desmond stepped in to pry Zane's hand off me. "Zane, it's been a while. Aren't you going to greet an old acquaintance?"Zane scowled at him, his tone sharp. "Step aside, Desmond. This has nothing to do with you."Tension filled the air, but Desmond didn't loosen his grip. He let out a chuckle. "You're forcefully dragging my subordinate away in front of me. How could this not concern me?"Seeing Zane scowl, I finally snapped, "Zane, there's nothing to talk about between us! Leave!"Zane's voice shook as he

Desmond and I walked out of the building together.Zane's expression was dark and stormy. Glancing at his watch, he sneered. "It's 11:00 pm. Cassidy, you've got some nerve, pretending to work late all these days.""Working late?" I laughed softly, wrapping my arm around Desmond's. "Mr. Bender, you've got it all wrong."Seeing our hands intertwined, Zane froze, frowning. "What is the meaning of this?""What she means is that she hasn't been working late. She has just been flirting with her boyfriend in the office," Desmond chimed in.Upon hearing that, Zane yelled in disbelief, "What the hell are you talking about?"He whipped his head toward me. "Cassidy, is this how far you'll go to avoid me? You'll even make up lies? I have to say, though, I've really underestimated you. I didn't think you could convince Desmond to help you."Grabbing my hand, he yanked me away from Desmond. "Come on. You're coming back with me right this instant."The next second, I shook off his hand hard a
