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!

Falling on My Butt

As my body warmed, the shock wore off. I felt better. Hungry. A little antsy, but better.

I couldn't control King. I never could. I knew that as surely as I knew Jake was a good man. As I knew with my skills and connections, I had the potential to be this world's worst nightmare.

It was best to let go of what I couldn't control and focus on what I could—predominantly me.

Jake gave back my phone and laptop before heading out to pick up Davon. We were still going roller skating this morning. This afternoon, I'd keep my promise to Alec. I foresaw a very awkward afternoon, but it still felt important in a very organic way that some people might interpret as fated.

I wasn't sure I believed in fate. That seemed to take away the little control I had left, and I needed to retain at least some control otherwise I'd be tempted to waste away in my room as I waited for something to happen.
