YOUR BUSINESS RIVAL IS MY NEXT, DEAR EX!

Kira married her best friend and high school crush, Carlos Blackwood, and gave up her rising career to become a good housewife — all to support the man she loved.

For five years, she stood by his side, only to be repaid with silence, distance, and ultimately, betrayal. One night, hoping to surprise him at the office, she walked in on him tangled up with his secretary who also happened to be her middle school friend.

That’s when something inside her snapped.

She divorced him on the spot. And the very next move? Walked straight into the office of Jake Milano — Carlos’s most dangerous business rival.

Cold. Handsome. Ruthless in the boardroom. And now Kira’s new weapon for the success of her revenge.

“Why would you date your husband's business rival?" Jake asked, watching her with a calculating gaze.

“Ex-husband,” Kira corrected, chin lifted high. “He lost that title a few hours ago. And what’s wrong if I find his rival handsome... and boyfriend material?”

“You’re playing with fire, woman,” Jake warned, his smile sharp and dangerous.

Kira twirled a strand of her short brown hair, unfazed. “Oh? Didn’t you know my last name is Fuego? Playing with fire is my favorite game.”

Jake stood up, closing the distance in one step, gripping her waist firmly.

“I love confident women,” he murmured, voice low and rough. “You’ve definitely caught my eye, Miss Fuego. Now, tell me again what is it that you want?”

She leaned in, her breath brushing his ear.
“I want you. I want my revenge to work. I want to destroy Carlos Blackwood... and I want to help you destroy him too so you can be the only business King of the country.”
