Wife’s Bitter Revenge Against Neglectful CEO Husband

Teela married King Heavenly because she loved him, but life in the Heavenly household was anything but euphoric. Lettie, her hard-as-nails mother-in-law, treats her like an unpaid servant. The family treats her like an outsider. King treats her like a shadow, transparent and forgettable. When Lettie presses Teela to prove her value to the family or get out, Teela has a decision to make. But she’s not leaving without a fight. King Heavenly rules Heavenly Industries with an iron fist, but he leaves his home life to his mother to manage, and that includes the management of his boring little wife. Teela has never complained. She’s never done anything interesting, for that matter. She’s just one more responsibility in a long line of responsibilities that King shoulders on a daily basis, and that is exactly how he treats her — as a responsibility that he’s delegated to his mother. Suddenly Teela steps out of the shadows and into a fight with him and his whole family, and King is baffled by the ruthless actions of his now daring wife. He’d always heard that vengeance is a dish best served cold, but Teela is coming in hot!

King and Jake were in the middle of a stare-down when King's phone rang. When he didn't pick up, Min's phone rang. Min answered his.

After what was very much a one-sided conversation, Min stepped forward. He said something next to King's ear. King took the phone and listened, his face betraying nothing about the call.

King spoke to me from over Jake's shoulder. "I don't have time to deal with you right now Mom's had a stroke."

I doubted it. This felt more like a tactic Anya cooked up to draw King home. Right now, I didn't care as long as King let us go without a fight. I didn't want to see anyone hurt.

"You can take your friends and go. I have other priorities. But, Teela, make the therapy appointment tomorrow. You missed today."

"Whose fault was that?"
