Revenge Of The Wife They Sold
My husband, Brock, wanted to sell me out. Literally.
His plan was to drug me and deliver me to his boss, all for the sake of a promotion.
But what he didn't know was that my boss, Gill Webb, was gay. He was interested in my husband, not me. He looked me in the eye and asked, “Adeline, you don't want to lose your job, do you?”
I sighed, weary to my bones. I really needed this job.
After my husband fell into a drugged stupor, my boss appeared at the bedroom door.

Adeline Carter's POV:
Gill delivered his final ultimatum. “Adeline, this is your last chance. If you keep being this stubborn, you're out. Fired.”
Fired. Blacklisted. No job in New York. We'd lose everything.
“Adeline, you don't want to lose your job, do you?” Gill sneered.
I walked through the bustling streets of Manhattan, lost.
Brock and I were from a remote small town. we had worked so hard to get here. We both had to work; there was no other option.
And now, everything was at stake. I couldn't lose this job. I simply couldn't.
The thought of losing our home filled me with a cold, paralyzing dread.
