I’m the Other Woman

For fifteen years, I poured my blood, sweat, and tears into building a business empire from nothing with Robert. I thought our happily-ever-after was finally here. Instead, on the eve of our company's IPO, I discovered he had secretly married another woman. While he gaslit me into staying "simple" and frugal, he was dripping his pregnant new wife in diamonds and luxury properties bought with my hard-earned money.

He thought I would quietly step aside, or that I loved the company too much to destroy it. He thought my fifteen years of sacrifice made me weak. He was wrong.

I won't be the tragic, discarded woman. If Robert thinks he can build his perfect new family on the foundation of my life's work and walk away unscathed, he's dead wrong. I am taking everything back. I will gladly burn down the very empire I almost died building, just to watch his deceitful dreams turn to ash.
