Giving Him Up

Summary

Within the circle, everyone knew I had been Leo’s most devoted, submissive admirer.

For thirteen years, I chased him relentlessly, transforming myself from an uneducated, middle-school-dropout, illegitimate child of a wealthy family into an Ivy League economics master’s graduate.

Only then did his mother finally acknowledge me, and I became Mrs. Smith.

However, after the wedding, I no longer meddled in Leo’s company, cooked, or served him.

While he stayed up late planning strategies for his first love, I traveled the world with friends.
