FLASH MARRIAGE: His Revengeful Wife

“That bitch, Lauren! She thinks she is all that but she won't know what hit her when we’re done with her!”

“Don’t stress yourself, honey. She isn't worth your anger. And as for her, I’ll make sure she can't stand up again when we take everything from her.”

Outside the office, a woman stood there trembling like she had been soaked in ice for days. Her eyes were bloodshot and the back of her clothes was soaked in her cold sweat.

She stood outside the office but could hear everything that was said about her. She didn't need to strain her ears to listen as the couple inside wasn't even trying to lower their voices as if they didn't care if she heard.

Yes, the woman outside is the Lauren that was mentioned, and the couple inside the office are the two people she thought were as close as family to her—Her fiance and her best friend from college days.

Lauren felt her head spin as she listened to the mockery that came from inside the office. She felt like she wanted to disappear from that place, she wished it was all a dream, but as she stood there, the couple’s voices still rang out as if telling her how stupid she was.

“But, Julian, when will all this end? When can we take everything from her? Especially the designs? And when will you break up with her?” She whined, then continued, “That dumb bitch stole my man!

Lauren couldn't believe the words she heard.

What did Celine mean by Lauren stealing her man? How ridiculous!

Lauren had met Julian when she was 19 years old and in college. That moment was the darkest moment of her life—the period when she lost her mother who is said to have committed suicide.

At that time, Lauren had considered Julian who had burst into her life as a light she could hold onto. Julian had pursued her for months, and he stayed with her when she fell ill due to the news of her father bringing in a new wife just days after her mother’s death.

She had thought he was the best man she would ever meet and when she heard he missed his exams for her which made him repeat another year,
