Jared suspected me, but he probably had no evidence, so there was nothing he could do.
Being a proud man, Jared knew | had loved him hopelessly for six years and only recently started behaving oddly.
Before this, | was always obedient and sweet towards him.
Jared believed | wouldn't dare cheat on him. He likely thought his neglect had upset me, causing a rebellious
streak.
He knew exactly how to soothe my emotions-ssweet talk, a bit of money, sgrand promises, and extra
attention at night would keepcompliant.
But now, it seemed | wasn’t as easy to pacify anymore. He needed to put in more effort, which annoyed him.
“Victoria, you're a married woman with a child. Behave with the dignity expected of you. The company’s eyes
are watching. You won't embarrass me, will you?” Jared stated sternly, explicitly remindingnot to break
marital laws.
My emotions had been stable, but now, | couldn’t hold back. | immediately fired back. “You want peace of mind,

go to a hotel, choose one far away. That's my biggest concession.”
Without waiting for his response, | prepared to leave. But the next second, Jared angrily grabbedback. My

“There won't be in the future either,” Jared said, breathing heavily, his eyes blazing as he glared at me. “Stop
fantasizing aboutcheating; it’s really tedious.”
His grip on my arm hurt, and | struggled to break free. Suddenly, Jared lowered his head and kissedfiercely.
| froze, realizing what was happening, and tried to push him away. But Jared, seemingly fueled by anger, became
more relentless and pinnedto his desk, continuing to kiss me.
| wanted to scream at him, thinking, ‘What kind of forced romance is this? Who enjoys that?"
“Hey, you two-“The half-open office door swung wide as Tracy stood there, eyes wide in shock. Behind her, two
high- ranking executives looked equally stunned.
