I Was Hired To Break Up My Own Relationship

I had a unique profession. I was a breakup specialist.

I did not need to go to court or write any contracts for that. That was a lawyer’s job.

Everyone kept saying that love was priceless, but a couple who professed their love to each other for an entire night could be paying me tons to break their relationship up the following day.

I was shaking my head upon those matters when I received a message from my husband, Matthew Grant, asking me to pick our wedding anniversary’s destination.

A few seconds after that, a beautiful woman walked into my office.

She appeared timid and had to take a lot of time to summon the courage to speak. “I’d like to hire your services for my boyfriend. He has decided to divorce his wife.”

I made no comment as I picked up the documents she had handed me, only to see Matthew’s name on the paper.

I froze, while the woman sitting in front of me ducked her head and continued, “My boyfriend says that his wife is a good person and that he doesn’t want to hurt her.”

She lacked experience in life, but she had received a good education, at least, because when she mentioned that she was the mistress, she looked shifty, as if she were feeling awkward.

“Do you have any good plans for my situation, Ms. Clark? My boyfriend mentioned that it’s best for his wife to ask for a divorce on her own. After all, they’ve been together for a long time, so it’s embarrassing for him to ask for one.”

She pursed her lips and put on a bashful smile.

If it were not for the fact that I was certain that she had not recognized me, I would have thought that she was challenging me.

I put on a professional smile. “Miss Xander, how long have you been with your boyfriend?”

Claudia Xander was stunned. She had not managed to follow my line of thinking. “What?”

I spoke louder as I explained, “Before offering you any plans, I need to know all the details about how you got together.”

Understanding bloomed on Claudia’s face, and she spoke with a voice as soft as a dove’s. With every sentence she uttered, my smile dimmed a little more.

“I’ve been with my boyfriend for three years. We first met at a hospital. Someone from his family needed a surgery
