I Laughed When My Wife Hugged Her Assistant

Winona clenched the divorce papers tightly. “Jared Strathmore, must you pick a fight over nothing?” she snapped.When I did not respond, she sneered. “Fine. Keep going then.”She strode to the door, pulled Corey inside, and pressed herself against him. “Carry me back.”“Miss Quinton, what are you doing?” Corey asked, chuckling lightly. “What if someone sees us?”Winona slipped her arms around his waist. Her cheeks tinged red. “My stockings are torn. Take me back to the office and help me change them.”Then, with a sideways glance at me, she deliberately looped an arm around Corey’s neck. “Let’s go, Corey. Don’t let anyone ruin our mood.”I stood frozen and with my fists clenched.As I left the office, I noticed people gathered around, talking over their phones and occasionally casting strange looks my way.I pulled out my phone and discovered a glaring post at the top of my social feed.Corey had uploaded a nine-photo collage just a minute ago, and every shot featured Winona

My phone screen displayed an email from the company’s second-largest shareholder. It listed evidence of Corey’s misuse of power for personal gain, along with resignation letters from all department managers and technical staff.I explained, “People have been asking me for a long time whether I plan to go independent. They all have been wanting to follow me. Winona has been blinded by Corey’s sweet talk, and the shareholders have already had enough.”My close friend stared at me with admiration. “I knew it. You secured all those sponsors. Winona never deserved that CEO position. This time, she could try rebuilding from the ground up with Corey by her side.”Meanwhile, the company was in complete chaos.Winona stared at the thick stack of resignation letters in front of her. Confusion was written all over her face. “What is this? If you have any concerns, you can speak up. Be it salaries or vacation days, we can work it out.”A major shareholder stepped forward, looking troubled.

After Corey left, Winona swept everything off her desk, sending the items crashing to the floor.‘Jared, since you insist on believing that I cheated on you with Corey, I’ll make it real. As you wish!’ she thought.Several reports across major media suggested that Winona and her assistant were on the verge of becoming a couple.She brought him to multiple business galas and openly declared him her only date, leaving many people curious about my whereabouts.Meanwhile, details about me were leaked online.[I heard that Jared Strathmore betrayed Miss Quinton and poached a large number of her core staff.][During the company’s hardest days, Mr. Marsh stayed by her side throughout. That’s true loyalty.][I support Miss Quinton and Mr. Marsh being together. This is true love forged through hardship.]Rumors flooded the internet, and I did not need to guess who was orchestrating them.When every company began returning all our products, I realized that those rumors were already stra

Cameras swarmed us as the media demanded answers about our relationship.Corey explained, “I’m just Miss Quinton’s assistant. As for the rumors, it was all part of her plan to win Mr. Strathmore back, and she asked me to help her with it.”Then, amid the reporters’ confusion, Corey produced his so-called evidence: an audio recording.“Corey, after the shoot, keep your distance from me. I don’t want Jared to misunderstand.“Don’t cross the line, Corey. Just stir Jared up a little. That’s enough.“Remember, you’re just my assistant. Don’t get any ideas.”A wave of realization swept through the reporters.“So this was all Miss Quinton’s way of getting Mr. Strathmore’s attention. It had been her strategy to win him back.”“A wealthy heiress going all out to win her husband back? This is pure drama. I’m so invested!”“It looks like Miss Quinton really does care about Mr. Strathmore. She’s been pulling little stunts in private.”Seeing their reaction, Corey smiled at me. “Mr. Strat
