The day I discovered Zac was cheating, I smashed everything in the house. The maid frantically called him multiple times.

"Mr. Saunders, Mrs. Saunders is having another fit at home."

I stood there in a daze, then slumped onto the carpet. When Zac rushed back, his face bore deep weariness.

"Sammi, what's wrong with you again?" he asked as he loosened his tie with a tired hand.

Seeing the knot he held, I had a moment of confusion. In the morning, I had tied a Windsor knot for him. But now, it was a complicated Eldredge knot - the only knot style Jemma Jacobs, his former secretary, could tie.

Back when she was still his secretary, she was always clumsy with her tasks. Yet, Zac was unusually patient with her. I had asked him the reason once, and he explained to me, "Sammi, she has that same determination you do."

At that time, I didn't think much of it, assuming he just wanted to give a newcomer in the workplace a chance.

Things only started to change when Zac began talking about her more often. Even though he kept complaining about her mistakes, there was a hidden fondness in his expression.

One day, we had a big argument, and I insisted that he should fire Jemma. He looked at me with a furrowed brow and a cold tone.

"Sammi, you always like making a big deal out of nothing."

Eventually, he reluctantly agreed. At that moment, I felt a triumphant satisfaction, as if I had won a battle. But I forgot one important thing—when a man decides to cheat, there's no way to stop it.

Zac did, in fact, replace Jemma at the company, but he also brought her into his bed and pampered her until now. He coldly watched as I remained oblivious, like a fool.

I sat on the carpet, looking up at him. "Where did Jemma go after quitting?"

In a moment, Zac's face darkened. "Is this why you had a meltdown today, being suspicious and all?"

I knew him too well, easily seeing through his anger that concealed guilt. So, I placed the photos I had received in front of him, one by one. Each picture vividly showed the intimacy between them, leaving no room for denial.
