Dear Ex-wife Marry Me by Twin Bridge

He was distracted, barely aware that the mood in the private lounge had shifted. Someone was trying to catch his eye, subtly signaling something, but he couldn't decipher what they meant at least not until Athena's voice rang out behind him.

"Fifteen million dollars might not mean much to you, but that's no excuse to just hand out that watch to someone else."

Tyler froze, stunned. He whipped around and realized Athena had slipped into the lounge at some point, now standing directly behind him.

Did she hear everything he just said?

"Athena..."

He barely managed her name before shoving the woman beside him away.

Athena stared at him silently. The more she kept her composure, the more cold sweat prickled down Tyler's back.

He had never felt this guilty in his life. Desperate, he reached for Athena's hand. Her eyes were rimmed red-especially when she glimpsed the watch, her watch, gleaming on another woman's wrist. The humiliation crashed over her like a wave.

If it had been Kerwin, he never would have let her suffer like this.

Kerwin...

How could she ever have let Tyler stand in for Kerwin? He wasn't anything like him.

Athena leaned forward, grabbed a glass from the table, and doused Tyler with water.

The room fell into an uneasy hush. No one dared speak.

Tyler was infamous for his wild ways, always treating women as disposable. Yet now, right in front of everyone, his pampered canary had humiliated him, leaving him speechless.

He snatched some napkins and dabbed at his face, but the woman beside him leapt to her feet, her anger flaring. Without hesitation, she slapped Athena.

Athena's head snapped to the side, and in her peripheral vision, she saw the watch on the woman's wrist. She reached to rip it off.
