Todos los capítulos de The Billionaire Replaced Me With My Assistant : Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 10

Sophia's POV I looked at him in disbelief. "What am I doing? You just announced your engagement to my assistant!""Lower your voice," he ordered, his tone cold and controlled. "You're making a scene.""A scene?" My voice trembled. "Three years, Alexander. Three years of promises, of 'just wait a little longer, Sophia.' And all this time you were cheating on me with Victoria?"He adjusted his tie, impassive. "Don't be dramatic. We never defined our relationship as exclusive."The cruelty of his words hit me like a slap. "You said you loved me.""And you believed that?" A cold smile curved his lips. "Sophia, you're too smart to be so naive. What we had was convenient, nothing more.""Convenient?" I repeated, feeling the tears I had held back finally overflow. "I gave you everything. My heart, my trust, my...""And I appreciated it," he interrupted, checking his watch as if the conversation bored him. "But Victoria is the woman I need by my side. She comes from a good family, understand

Sophia's POV I looked at the envelope as if it were a poisonous snake. "You can't be serious.""All the directors will be present," he replied calmly. "It would be strange if you, specifically, didn't attend.""Strange?" I repeated, my voice rising an octave. "What's strange is you inviting me to celebrate your engagement with the woman you cheated on me with!"Alexander stood up abruptly, circling the desk until he was inches from me. His familiar scent, woody, expensive, exclusive, invaded my senses, bringing back memories I was desperately trying to forget."Lower your voice," he ordered, his tone dangerously low. "There was no betrayal, Sophia. What we had was a convenient arrangement for both of us. You got promotions, recognition, a salary someone with your background could never have achieved so soon. I got... distraction."Distraction. The word echoed in my mind, destroying any shred of dignity I was still trying to maintain."You said you loved me," I whispered, hating the v

Sophia's POV Michael took a few steps toward me, stopping just an arm's length away. "Because it's the right thing to do. Because I can't stand seeing what they're doing to you. Because..." He didn't finish the sentence, but something in his eyes made my heart race in a way it hadn't since... well, since Alexander. "I need to think," I replied, too confused to make any decision at that moment. Michael nodded, understanding. "Of course. Take your time. But don't take too long. The restructuring starts on Monday." He walked to the door, pausing with his hand on the knob. "One last thing, Sophia. Whatever you decide, be careful. Victoria is more dangerous than she seems. And Alexander..." he hesitated, "Alexander isn't as simple as you think." With those somewhat enigmatic words, he left, leaving me there alone with my swirling thoughts and a new set of unanswered questions. I returned to the computer, trying to focus on the slides I needed to finish, but my mind was elsewh

Sophia's POVHe hesitated, the words coming out as if they were too heavy to carry. "Because I've seen Alexander destroy people before. Good people, Sophia. And I've always stayed silent, convincing myself it was just business. But with you..." He swallowed hard, his eyes shining with something that seemed like genuine remorse. "I can't stay silent."The vulnerability in his gaze almost made me believe him. Almost. But years of navigating the corporate world had taught me to distrust any offer that seemed too good to be true. Michael could be sincere, or he could be plotting something I didn't yet understand."I need to think," I replied, holding the box with my belongings, its weight a reminder of my downfall. "In any case, I have until tomorrow to decide."Michael nodded, his face softening. "Call me when you decide. Any time."I left the building for the last time, or at least for the last time as an employee of the marketing department. In the lobby, the security guard, with whom

Sophia’s POVPierce laughed, a short, humorless sound. "Love is too strong a word for men like Alexander. Let’s just say you represent something he's never had—authenticity, simplicity, affection without a hidden agenda. It fascinates and frightens him at the same time.""If that's true," I replied, still skeptical, "why is he engaged to your daughter?""Because it's the logical move," Pierce answered simply. "The merger between our companies makes financial sense. Victoria brings political connections, social status, an understanding of the world he inhabits. It's a strategic partnership.""A marriage of convenience," I murmured."Exactly," he nodded. "But you... you complicate things. Even now, after everything that's happened, you still have influence over him.""That's ridiculous," I protested. "He treats me like garbage.""And yet," Pierce continued, "he didn't let Victoria fire you, even when she insisted. He offered you an alternative position, however humiliating, instead of j
