When Cassidy Lorne told me what she wanted, I was stunned. I could never have imagined something this outrageous.Beneath her flawless makeup, her expression remained calm as she slowly said, "He cheated on me."I felt sorry for her, but I didn't want to get involved in someone else's marriage.I was just about to refuse when Cassidy interrupted, "Samantha, your ex-husband abandoned you and your daughter. Do you hate him?""You ran a background check on me?"Cassidy smiled. "Isn't that normal? I'll pay you 100 thousand dollars a month and 500 thousand more after the job's done. You and your daughter could finally have a stable life. What do you say?"Don't worry. He's perfectly healthy, and you won't actually have to sleep with him."I clenched my teeth but couldn't bring myself to say no. The money she offered was simply too much.Cassidy went on to explain. Jeremy Wyatt, her husband, was an ungrateful man who had built his fortune off her family's support.Now that he was ri

Jeremy was surprisingly patient. He didn't contact me for three whole days. On the fourth day, I received a call. He wanted to take me out for dinner.Cassidy was sitting across from me when I took that call. She urged me to reject him. I made up an excuse about a meeting and hung up the phone immediately."A man's pursuit of a woman is a process of conquest," Cassidy said. "If he gets what he wants too easily, he'll lose interest."I quickly caught on. "Play hard to get, right? I know how to do that!"Jeremy asked me out several more times. It wasn't until the third invitation that I agreed, but on the condition that I chose the location. He immediately agreed.Cassidy picked a high-end, members-only restaurant near a villa. Jeremy didn't doubt a thing, of course.I chose a well-tailored dress paired with a blazer to achieve a sophisticated elegance and finished the look with a pair of pearl earrings from TR Jewelry.When Jeremy saw me, a flash of admiration crossed his face. H

I declined Jeremy's offer to pay to leave him with the impression that I genuinely didn't care about money.Meanwhile, Yvonne clenched her teeth at my words. After swiping my card, she said, "Ms. Shepherd, I checked our system, and you don't seem to have a membership with us."Her words made my heart skip a beat, but I had prepared for this. "Is that a problem? These earrings were a gift from my ex. I'd never sign up for your membership. It's really annoying with all the promotional spam."Jeremy quickly jumped in. "Why are you even bringing this up? Aria is a VIP of luxury brands. Why would she even step foot in a place like this? Yvonne, do you even know how to serve clients?"Raising his voice, he added, "If you can't do your job, get someone else to do it!"The store manager, who had been watching from a distance, immediately stepped forward. "I'm terribly sorry for the inconvenience, Ms. Shepherd. I'll assist you right away."He then turned to Yvonne and barked, "Go to the b

But I had my principles.After taking Jeremy to the hospital to treat his wound, I looked him in the eye and said plainly, "I won't be the other woman.""Don't worry," he reassured me. "Cassidy and I have been done for a while. I'll handle everything. Just wait for me.""Okay. I don't want her showing up at my company causing trouble. As you know, with a multinational company like mine, especially a family business, any scandal leaking out could—""I promise. It won't happen," Jeremy said confidently.He leaned in and kissed me on the forehead. A chill ran down my spine, but I forced a smile and flirted back.After all, I was paid 100 thousand dollars a month. I should do my job diligently.After returning home, Jeremy sped up his actions and had a confrontation with Cassidy. She used that opportunity to present all the evidence of his asset transfers.Jeremy was stunned. He hadn't expected Cassidy to know everything and to be so well-prepared. Now, he had no choice but to comp

Looking haggard, Jeremy stumbled downstairs and saw Yvonne being escorted by the property manager.His eyes widened in shock."Goodbye, Ms. Hudson!" the property manager said.Yvonne put on her sunglasses and walked out of the building.Jeremy froze, then quickly grabbed the property manager. "Why did you treat her with so much respect?"The property manager shoved him off. "What's wrong with you? That's our lady boss, Yvonne Hudson, the only daughter of Sapphire Realty! Her family owns the entire building!"Jeremy stood frozen, but his eyes quickly widened with realization. He immediately chased after Yvonne while dialing her number.Yvonne answered. "What do you want?""I'm sorry, Yvonne! I shouldn't have broken up with you. Let's get back together!""Get back together? Scumbag! You trampled on my feelings. You deserve nothing but misery!" Yvonne ended the call and blocked him.Jeremy dropped to his knees on the sidewalk, crying uncontrollably. He searched for me franticall
