Dirty Affairs With Asher Williams

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

Chapter 1

Adelie POV

After having a long day at the company today, I can finally go home.

"Are you going home already, Adelie?" My boss, Mr. Raymond asks me as he walks in on me packing up the files on my desk, and getting ready to go home.

Turning to glance at him, I pull a puzzled look, wondering what kind of question he just asked. Of course, where does it look like I'm about to go? Besides, I've closed for the day, so what's next if it's not to go home?

"Yes, Sir," I still reply to him, regardless, and he slowly nods his head. The look on his face tells me that he has something to say, but there's no way I would know what he wants to say if he doesn't spill it out, yeah?

"Uhm... Adelie..." He pauses and I turn to face him fully, giving him the look that literally asks him to go ahead and speak up. I don't have all day, and I really need to get back home and get something to eat. I'm so famished.

"Hmm?" I still reply to him when he doesn't acknowledge my expression.

"Are you free tonight? There's a new movie playing at the cinema today, was thinking we could watch it together if you're free," He says, looking extremely nervous like one talking to his crush. What am I saying? I'm his crush.

Mr. Raymond is the son of the CEO of Walmart group of company, but the company was willed to him recently by his dad who is now aged and can't do office work anymore. I can't deny the fact that he's handsome, and also the way he has been looking at me since past few months I have been working with him. He has a crush on me, and same with me, but I can't possibly show it to him, right? That's how much ego I have.

"Yes, but it depends on my body when I get home. For now, I'm exhausted and need some rest, but who knows, I may be fine later tonight," I shrug, and he nods his head.

"Alright. I'll get the ticket for us. I'll pick you up later by 8pm," He says to me, and I nod my head. As much as I'm excited that I'm going out with Mr. Raymond, I try not to show it to him. Because why should I?

"Alright. See you later," I say to him, and with that, I pick my back and stride out of the office, closing the door behind me.

Arriving at the parking lot later, I hop inside my car and finally drive out of the company, heading home.

My name is Adelie Williams, twenty-five years old daughter of one of the wealthiest businessmen in New York. After I finished college four years ago, I got a job in Walmart group of company, declining an offer to work in my father's company. Well, my brother is handling the company, and for some reason, I do not want to be stuck with him there.
