Chapter 1

“Babe, you need to clear your weekend schedule right now. You’re taking me to that new French restaurant that just opened downtown.”

The moment I walked into my husband’s office, my jaw dropped.

Benjamin, the man who always prided himself on keeping a strict professional distance from the opposite sex, was holding the hand of our new intern, Nora.

Fury flared in my chest. I stormed over, my hand automatically raising to slap this homewrecker across the face.

But right before my hand made contact, a strange, robotic voice echoed in my head:

【Slap me! Come on, hit me hard!】

【The stream chat said that if she hits me, Benjamin will hate her even more!】

【What a brainless heiress. A cheap trick, and she totally fell for it.】

【Keep throwing your tantrum, honey. I’m the main character here.】

【Your ending is a one-way ticket to a mental asylum. Mine is a fairy-tale wedding with Benjamin.】

My hand froze mid-air.

I looked at Nora. Her eyes were wide with eager anticipation, practically begging for the slap.

Instead of hitting her, I lowered my hand, reached out, and gently patted her soft cheek.

“Nora, your skin is absolutely glowing,” I said, my voice dripping with honey. “No wonder Benjamin likes you so much. He just can’t seem to let go of your hand, can he?”
