I Loved Your Money More Than Your Soul

Synopsis

Everyone in my social circle knew I was a professional gold digger. I married Sean Howard for his money, plain and simple. To him, I was just a convenient stand-in. To me, he was a walking ATM. So, when his one true love, his stepsister, Emily Grant, finally returned from abroad, I knew my cue. I was supposed to step aside gracefully. But suddenly, I realized I didn't really want to let go. After all, a sugar daddy who is both drop-dead gorgeous and insanely generous is hard to find. Just as I was mentally drafting a shameless, tear-jerking speech to beg him to let me stay, I walked into our bedroom and caught Sean doing the unthinkable. To appease Emily, he was using a tool to physically pry the main gemstone out of my mother's ring, the only keepsake I had left of her. Sean caught the sudden shift in my expression. Clearly annoyed by the incoming drama, he whipped out his checkbook. "Just name your price," he said coldly. "I'll pay you double." When I stared into his indifferent eyes, reality slapped me awake. "Fuck the feelings. Get your money up," I murmured. I immediately tilted my head up, flashing him a cheeky grin. "Make it triple. Deal?"
