Anyone could tell the watch was worth only a few thousand dollars, but Sean was still touched. He smiled as he reached for it and nodded, his eyes glistening with emotion."You really put a lot of thought into this, Hannah. But I'm supposed to be the one proposing. How could I let you spend that much money on me?"He immediately transferred 200,000 dollars to make up for what she had spent. He even sent someone out to buy a diamond ring so he could propose to her properly.Our coworkers squealed with envy and cheered them on. I was the only one who couldn't smile.Sean had always told me that office relationships were against company policy, especially between a boss and a subordinate.Every time I wanted to go public with our relationship, he gave me the same excuse. As the boss, he had to set an example.For seven years, I had put up with everything because I didn't want to get in the way of his career or his ambitions.Yet now, just so Hannah wouldn't be embarrassed, he had a

I turned sharply to Sean."Sean, weren't you the one who texted me saying you were going to propose at the annual party? You were the one who told me to wear a wedding dress. So why are you acting like you had nothing to do with it?"Sean froze. Then he looked at Hannah.I followed his gaze and saw the color drain from her face. That told us everything.Hannah had sent the message.Remembering how she had humiliated me earlier that day, I scoffed. "Wow. You really planned this whole thing out, didn't you? With acting skills like that, you picked the wrong career."Hannah bit her lip and stayed silent, looking as though she were the one who had been wronged.The moment Sean saw how upset she looked, his heart went out to her, and he immediately stepped in to smooth things over."Enough. Give her a break. She's—"I cut him off and finished the sentence for him."She's young and doesn't know any better. She only did it because she thought she was helping me. She can be a little

Sean gave me an incredulous look. Then he seemed to remember the seven years we'd spent together.He scoffed, his gaze shifting between Susan and me. "Wow, Cheryl. You even paid Susan to go along with this? What exactly do you think you're going to get out of this stunt?"Susan froze, then quickly tried to explain, "Mr. Conway, that's not what happened—"But Sean cut her off. "Enough. I've always treated you well, and this is how you repay me? Pack your things and leave. I don't need someone this ungrateful working for me!"Hannah immediately seized the chance to take another shot at me. "Cheryl, just look at yourself. You're obviously broke. Where do you get the nerve to pretend you're some wealthy heiress?"Most of my coworkers stayed quiet, but a few of Hannah's lackeys were quick to pile on."Exactly. She can barely afford a cup of coffee most days, and now she's pretending she's loaded."I wasn't going to waste my breath on them. I turned around and walked away.Susan was

Sean picked up the cake he had left on the floor. "I missed your birthday because I was busy with work, so I thought I'd make it up to you today."This was how he always handled things. Whenever he upset me, he would bring me something to eat as a peace offering.In the past, I always gave in. I figured that if we were going to stay together anyway, there was no point in dragging out an argument. But this time, I had no intention of letting him smooth things over.Before I could stop him, Sean had already opened the cake box. But the message on the cake wasn't for me at all. It read, "Happy 26th Birthday, Hannah!"That was when I remembered seeing Hannah's résumé. Today was her birthday. If none of this had happened today, Sean would have been celebrating with her right now.He was about to put the candles on the cake when he finally noticed the message written across the top.He quickly tried to explain. "The bakery must've mixed up the order. I'll get you another one right now.
