The Tyrant's Wife

"The harder I try to hate you, the deeper I fall for you." His presence irked her to the core, but whenever he got out of her sight, she missed him?! …. A tyrant, known to be the city's infamous playboy. As an executive assistant, she was forced to work under him by the most cruel twist of fate. If losing her job overnight was a nightmare, then working under a boss like Desmond Fort was hell. He was an arrogant narcissist with an ego bigger than the whole of Imperium city, but that was not what angered her the most. The most infuriating fact was that despite his constant assholery, her heart seemed to stupidly skip a beat every time he gazed at her with those devilishly charming eyes. She knew she was making a mistake but that didn't stop her from sinking deeper and deeper into his charm. All she wanted now was to leave! But leaving hell was not nearly as easy as getting in.

Since you like her, I won't try to win her over

"Stop right there! How could you say this to your mother?" Alyssa called after Desmond who was making his way towards the staircase.

He turned with a slight frown on his face. "Let's not argue about this—or anything else for that matter. I'm in too good of a mood to ruin it over meaningless chatter. You can go to sleep in the guest room, mother."

Alyssa gritted her teeth as he really walked out on her. Her hands clenched to fists, knowing that there wasn't anything she could do to change his attitude.

It irked her to the core. How could he not see that their troubles began the second Zaria started investigating their family? It was uncertain what exactly she wanted but she was making the Fort family fall apart with everything she did.

Even though she had told the truth in court in the end, she was only doing so to gain Desmond's trust.
