Too Late For Regret: The Assistant's Revenge

About this story

Synopsis

For three years, Christina was Jackson Booker’s flawless executive assistant by day and his secret lover by night. That was until she overheard him planning his high-profile marriage to heiress Carson Wall, casually telling his partners that Christina would be easily disposed of. "Once the merger is finalized, I'll cut her a severance check. It's a non-issue." When she tried to resign, Jackson tore up her letter, forcefully assaulted her in his private elevator, and declared she was his property. The nightmare only escalated. At a corporate gala, Jackson literally handed her over to a sleazy, violent client just to secure a logistics contract. "Mr. Boggs is a VIP guest, Christina. Don't disappoint him." While Jackson walked away, the client dragged her into a hotel room and attempted to assault her. She barely escaped with her life, saved only by Jackson's powerful rival, Gaston Carter. But the ultimate humiliation came the next morning. Jackson's new fiancée, Carson, cornered Christina in the office. Carson knew everything. She deliberately pressed her manicured fingers into the fresh, dark bruises on Christina's shoulder, smiling sweetly. "You are a stress-relief toy, Christina. A dirty little secret he keeps on the payroll. And now that I am here, your playtime is over." Christina couldn't understand how the man she loved could treat her like a disposable animal, allowing his bride to torture her for sport. As she sat on the cold floor, her phone buzzed with a text from Gaston. "Let me know when you are ready to stop being a victim." The crushing despair in her chest ignited into a hot, burning fury. She picked up her phone and typed back. "I'm ready. Where do we meet?"
