Taking Down My CEO Husband
The day the company was exposed for accounting fraud, my CEO husband did the unthinkable.
To protect his favorite assistant, Ivy Kane, he called a press conference and publicly pinned all the blame on me, vowing to make sure I paid the price.
Ivy put on a heartbroken expression and said, "Olivia, I warned you a long time ago not to misuse company funds, let alone falsify financial records. Why wouldn't you listen?"
My coworkers stared at me in shock, expecting me to defend myself.
Instead, I smiled, accepted every accusation, and voluntarily resigned.
My husband thought I had finally learned my lesson.
He lowered his voice and promised, "When this is all over, I'll make sure you get your job back. And when the time comes, I'll make our relationship public. Consider it my way of making it up to you.”
What he didn't know was that, to protect the company's interests, the chairman instructed me on opening day to install monitoring software on every computer in the office.
The moment those system logs were retrieved, their lies would fall apart on their own.
And when that happened, what awaited them wouldn't just be massive financial penalties, it would be prison.
