At the far end of the hallway, by the floor-to-ceiling windows, Reese and I both stopped."Davis, you okay? You know Molly and I run the law firm together. We see each other a lot. Don't read too much into it.""Read too much into what? The someone you can't have, or the rose island?" I said flatly."Everything Molly said is true." He stepped closer. "You're just a regular employee at the Winchester Group. You don't have access to the upper circles, so you don't understand what a woman like Molly needs."Reese was smiling, but every word was ice. "She doesn't want some dull, lovesick puppy. She wants a knight, someone romantic and exciting."You should work on that. Stop being so rigid. Boring and dull."As he said all this, there was a knowing look in his eyes.He always did this, offering advice that sounded genuine on the surface.He'd told me the color scheme of our new apartment was too dreary and oppressive. By the time I came back from a business trip, all the walls had been rep

Over the next few days, I began packing, removing every trace of myself, along with my heart.Meanwhile, Molly sat in the living room video-calling Reese, her laughter flirtatious and sweet."Davis finally got rid of that ugly ornament." Molly held up her phone, grinning at the empty space where my things had been.Reese's smug laughter came through the speaker. "Davis really does do as he's told. From now on, don't even bother asking him. Just do it."I didn't react. I turned and went upstairs.That evening, Molly brought Reese home.Her excuse was that his apartment was being renovated and he had nowhere to stay.The second Reese walked in, he casually tossed his jacket onto the armchair where I always sat."Just crashing for one night. You don't mind, right?"I acted like I hadn't seen him and went upstairs to the study.The study was dark, lit only by the glow of the computer screen.I pulled up the security cameras. The screen split into multiple feeds.In the living room, Molly s

The next morning, Greene knocked and entered the study."Sir, we've discovered that Ms. Prescott has been transferring money to Reese's private accounts over the past three months."I glanced at what Greene handed me.Over the past ninety days, Molly had siphoned more than four million dollars through the card linked to my account.And that money had been routed through a chain of accounts and funneled to Reese under one pretext or another.Seeing those numbers, I suddenly recalled something. Early in our relationship, Molly's credit card had been lost and reissued, and she'd asked me to pick up the replacement from the bank.At the time, I'd felt bad that she could only qualify for a basic premium card, so I'd quietly linked it to my account.I never imagined she'd use it to shower money on Reese without a second thought.I handed the documents back to Greene, my voice flat. "Unlink her card from my account.""I'm curious to see how romantic they can be once the money's gone."Greene

Molly sat outside the gate all night. It never opened again.At dawn, she dragged her stiff body back to the apartment.The moment she pushed open the door, the living room was a wreck.The coffee table was overturned. Reese was standing at her vanity, dumping the contents of every drawer, jewelry piece by piece, onto the floor."What are you doing?" Molly's voice was raw, like sandpaper scraping across stone.Reese didn't even turn around. His left hand was still in a cast, but his right hand deftly snatched up a diamond necklace and stuffed it into his pocket. "What does it look like? Packing up anything valuable.""You've lost it!" Molly lunged to stop him. "Those are mine!""Yours?" Reese finally turned around, and the face that had once made her heart race was now twisted beyond recognition."What's yours is mine, isn't it? You said it yourself, Molly. You'd give me anything."Thanks to that fiancé of yours, all three of my law firms had their licenses revoked."The tax audit was
