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.

Shut her up

"What did he say?" She asked when Desmond hung up the call. She was nervous even though she tried not to be.

"He retrieved the contact number of the person who blackmailed your dad." He shared the good news, making her let off a sigh of relief at the fact that she would no longer have to ask Lucy or Zeus to help her trace the culprit. It was not that she didn't want to, but they were more or less suspects too.

His tone and gaze confirmed that he had suspicions too. Perhaps the identity of the caller was too shocking.

"And?" She probed.

"It's the butler of the Su family."

Her jaw moved but for a while, she was unable to say a word. She stared at him in shock before she finally managed to fumble a few syllables out.
