He’ll never do this to another woman again. I fell for the outer trappings.
Tall, dark, with piercing green eyes that bulge out like beacons. The penthouse in Manhattan overlooking Central Park.
I fell for it all. What a fool I was.
Never again!
An office romance never works out. And my boss, no less.
What was I thinking. I lost him and my job.
He won’t get away with it. I’ll ruin him.
No one will suspect me. I’ve always had access to the files.
I’ll get to them, copy his business and personal information.
Then, call his wife.
