At the company's victory party, my boyfriend of six years, Charles Grant, announced to the entire company that he was engaged to the new intern, Cheryl Quinn. He had his arm around Cheryl's waist, his tone full of contempt. "Cheryl's pregnant. Once the baby's born, I'll make it up to you." Everyone thought I'd cling to him, refusing to let go. After all, I'd been by Charles's side since he started the company, through every up and down. But that very night, I handed in my resignation and agreed to the arranged marriage my family had set up for me years ago. Three years later, my husband invited me to attend a business dinner with him. While I was waiting at the entrance for my husband, who was held up by work, I unexpectedly ran into Charles again. Charles snapped, "Oh, you finally decided to come back? Then go home and help Cheryl take care of the kid right away."
