I had just opened my phone when a news article about me popped up. "The Handsome CEO Reuben Read Attends Charity Gala with His Beloved Wife, Donates Millions, and Can't Stop Showing Off Their Love!" But I had never attended any charity gala. Curious, I clicked on the link. In the video, my usually aloof husband Reuben was walking down the red carpet, fingers intertwined with his secretary's. He even lifted her in his arms to help her down the stairs. Even the host couldn't help but gush. "Mr. Read and Mrs. Read are so in love. It's like they're still in the honeymoon phase! We're all envious!" Reuben didn't bother to explain. He just smiled deeply, looking at his assistant, who playfully waved at the camera. A sharp pang hit my chest. It seemed like Reuben wanted to trade in his wife.
