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!

Realization

Rosie met us at the door. She gave me a huge hug.

"What happened? What can I do to help?" Rosie asked.

"Help Min. I've got King," I said.

Ben said, "Not necessary. Min is mine."

I did a double take, but I couldn't tell for sure if he meant Min was his problem or his man, or both. It didn't matter as long as Min's injuries were addressed. That, I trusted to Ben.

Rosie helped me get King into the bedroom before I sent her to prep for dinner.

When we were alone, I helped King change into pajamas in silence.

I was buttoning his top when King finally spoke, "I'm tired. So tired."

"You have a right to be tired. We all do."

"I want to sleep," King said.

"Me too."

I helped King into bed and gave him a painkiller. Four times a day, King would forget, at least for a little while. Lucky man.

"Are you staying?" King asked.

"For a while, then I need to go to the church. I've got unfinished work to do."
