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.

Things aren't always the way they seem

"What are you trying to say?" Desmond was shocked too. He had a feeling that his mother was not just bluffing to cause trouble.

"It's Lucy." She cried. "She tried to kill your brother before but failed. I thought he was safe but she really murdered him this time. Honey, you cannot be with the daughter of the woman who wants to harm your family."

Zaria blinked when she realized that although she didn't want to admit it, Alyssa could be telling the truth. The accident on that day…

"Zaria!" Desmond ran after her when she suddenly dashed out through the door and headed for the parking lot.

"It was her!" Tears fell down her cheeks as soon as Desmond grabbed her hand. "She caused the accident that harmed my dad."

"What?" He didn't expect such a twist either.

"Let me go. I have to confront her." She tried to pull away. She finally understood the message she had been sent before, which warned that not every accident was actually an accident.
