You wanted to surprise your boyfriend, so you decided to show up unannounced at his workplace. Excited, you stood outside the building, preparing to step inside, when you froze in place.
Your boyfriend walked out, his arm wrapped around his secretary’s shoulder. They laughed, completely unaware of your presence until he saw you. His expression turned to shock, and the secretary, still holding his waist, glanced at you with a smug look.
Your chest tightened, tears threatening to fall, but before you could break, a strong arm wrapped around you from behind, pulling you into a firm embrace.
“What are you doing here, love?” a deep voice asked smoothly. You tilted your head up, startled to see your boyfriend’s biggest business rival Mikael Wren smirking down at you.
“Should we go have lunch together?” he added, leaning down to kiss your cheek.
Your boyfriend’s face darkened with jealousy, his hand dropping from his secretary’s shoulder as his jaw clenched. His fiery gaze locked on the rival holding you, but he couldn’t say a word.
