Too Good At Goodbye’s: The Architect’s Hidden heir
Omah Browne
"There’s a check in the envelope. Ten million. More money than you’ll ever be worth. It’s enough for you to disappear, find somewhere new, and start over. You’re smart, Zara..you’ll land another project. But the Sinclair Group doesn’t need brilliance anymore. It needs a wife with a name. And you don’t have one.
A girl from a broken home. That’s what he saw when he looked at me. He didn't see the woman who had saved his company from bankruptcy twice in the last year. He saw a tool that had outlived its usefulness.
"It's just business, Zara," he said, as if that explained everything. "Don't make this difficult. I’ve already had your things moved into the guest room for tonight, but I’d prefer if you were gone by morning."
I looked at the check. I picked it up, folded it slowly, and looked him straight in the eye.
"You're right, Mark," I said, my voice eerily calm. "It is just business. And you’ve just made the worst decision of your life. I hope you enjoy the view from up here. It’s a long way down.”
