Chapter 1

The company party turned into a game of Truth or Dare. The loser had to reveal a secret.

Sarah’s assistant, Brooks, lost. He raised his glass, a smirk on his face.

"Sarah and I share a secret. After she had her baby, she came back to work, and she was really uncomfortable in the office. I was the one who helped her with it."

Soon, people started egging him on.

"Sarah has such a great figure! You got lucky!"

"Just helped her? Nothing else happen?"

Brooks licked his lips, savoring the moment. "Don't get the wrong idea. I’m her assistant, helping her is just part of my job!"

Sarah laughed, covering Brooks's mouth.

"Say one more word, and I'm docking your bonus this month."

My fists clenched in anger.

Soon, it was my turn to lose.

Facing everyone's stares, I calmly said, "I'll share a secret too. I'm planning to divorce Sarah."

A ripple of shock went through the employees.

"Will used to be so forgiving! He didn't even say anything when he saw Sarah and Brooks holding hands at the mall. What changed?"

"Will, Brooks was just helping Sarah out! Don't get mad!"

Sarah stared at me. "Will, it was just a joke. Are you really going to be this sensitive?"

I held back my fury. "It has nothing to do with sensitivity. I genuinely want to divorce you."

Brooks's eyes instantly reddened. "Will, I didn't mean it. I was just making a joke to liven things up. I didn't know you were so sensitive…"

I looked at him mockingly. "Then let me make a joke too. If I'm not mistaken, your sister has a red mole on her left thigh, and she also has a good figure…"

"You…"

Brooks's face flushed crimson. He looked tearfully at Sarah.

Slap!

Sarah raised her hand and slapped me across the face. "Will, are you going to keep this up?"

I clutched my stinging face, staring at her in shock.

She hit me, for an assistant?

"Will, you actually spied on Brooks's sister? Get down on your knees and apologize to him right now!"

I laughed, tears streaming down my face. "He jokes about me, and you want me to be understanding. I joke about him, and you want me to kneel and apologize?"

I turned to leave.

Sarah yelled after me, "If you walk out that door, if you don't kneel and apologize, I'll fire you from everything!"

"Fine, Sarah! I’ll wait for you to fire me! And the divorce papers will be on your desk."

I walked out. The door slammed shut behind me.

"Sarah, Will is such a jerk, isn't he? And he even insulted my sister!" Brooks whined, looking hurt.

"By his logic, if he knew we kissed in the office before, or that I helped you change when you were too drunk to yourself… he’d probably drop dead from anger!"

"But it's my duty as your assistant! Will is so narrow-minded; he sees everything as dirty."

Sarah patted him, comforting him. "He's just jealous. Don't take it to heart."

To comfort Brooks, she actually kissed him in front of everyone.

"I think Sarah and Brooks are actually a couple."

"Yeah, Brooks has brought in so many clients for the company!"

"Will hasn't signed any contracts lately. He's just a dead weight, can't do anything right."

A chorus of flattering voices filled the private room.

Brooks took the opportunity to pat Sarah's backside a few times!

Watching that scene, I froze just outside the door, unwelcome tears blurring my vision.

I went home to pack my things.

Just as I finished, my phone rang.

It was a SnapChat video from Brooks.

Sarah lay on a big hotel bed, her eyes hazy, two buttons of her top undone.

Then, Brooks's voice came through. "Will, Sarah's had too much to drink. I brought her to the hotel to rest. I'll leave after I help her get cleaned up. Don't be jealous, okay?"
