Chapter 8 Night had fallen as I finished the last document and prepared to leave the office . As I exited the building , a disheveled figure caught my attention . Brianna was being restrained between two security guards , her clothes rumpled , hair wild . When she spotted me , her struggles intensified , nearly breaking free from the guards ' grip . " MILA ! " she shrieked . " This is all YOUR doing ! YOU did this to me ! " " You destroyed my career ! You destroyed EVERYTHING ! " I maintained a safe distance , looking down at her with cold detachment . " Miss Winters , you seem confused about something fundamental . " " You were fired because you're incompetent . " " Your so - called ' strategies ' were nothing but plagiarized garbage from the internet - riddled with amateur mistakes . " Brianna's face fluctuated between ashen and flushed , her rage intensifying with every word I spoke . I continued , my voice calm and cutting : ' You became Chief Executive Assistant by exploiting Ryker's sympathy - playing victim to gain his pity . " ' You're nothing but a manipulative bitch without actual skills , climbing the ladder by sweet - talking men . That's your entire identity . " ' You bullied subordinates and deceived superiors , stealing company resources while nobody dared speak up - all because you hid behind Ryker , weaponizing his trust and protection . Isn't that right ? " ' You think you matter to me ? You're just a talentless homewrecker who sold sob stories and your body to get ahead . " My CEO Husband Gave My Office to His Intern ?

With a sudden burst of strength , she broke free from the guards and lunged at me . " SHUT UP ! I'LL KILL YOU ! " I didn't flinch . Just before she could reach me , the security guards tackled her to the ground . I stepped forward , placing my heel on her hand , and said : " Brianna , if you ever appear before me again , I'll make sure your end is excruciating . " " Killing you would be easier than crushing an ant . " " Pray you never cross my path again . " Brianna completely lost it , screaming hysterically : " You fucking bitch ! I'll kill you ! I swear to God I'll kill you ! " The guards immediately covered her mouth and dragged her away . That night , an anonymous account leaked compromising photos of Brianna working at a " gentleman's club . " The images showed her with an obsequious expression , entertaining elderly businessmen . This was quickly followed by security footage of her shoplifting , and chat logs showing how she'd scammed money from boyfriends during college . I hadn't ordered any of this , but there were plenty of people eager to curry favor with me . Those hungry for Sullivan Enterprises ' approval had taken initiative . The elder Mr. Hampton used his industry influence to blacklist Brianna , ensuring she couldn't find work anywhere reputable . Eventually , she had no choice but to return to the club where she'd started . Within a month , she reportedly died from illness after physically overexerting herself . 1931 My CEO Husband Gave My Office to His intern ?
