NO SECOND CHANCE FOR THE RUTHLESS CEO
“Christian Blackthorne owns half of this city. If he finds out I prepared divorce papers for you, I could lose my license, my firm, and my reputation. I could disappear entirely for even thinking about it.”
I didn’t argue.
Instead, I opened my bag, pulled out a thick, heavy envelope wrapped in white paper, and slipped it onto the desk in front of him.
It landed heavily on the blotter with a solid thud.
Mr. Vance looked down at the envelope. He slowly opened one corner.
Stack after stack of crisp hundred-dollar bills.
A fortune.
“It’s not a bribe, Mr. Vance,” I said, resting my hands in my lap. “It’s a consultation f*e. You aren’t divorcing a Blackthorne. You’re saving a woman’s life.”
