I Begged My Husband 99 Times to See Stardust’s Concert novel Chapter 11

William and Alexander were college classmates, and they never got along.

William hated Alexander so much that he once asked me what the hell I even saw in him.

When I gave him what he considered a completely ridiculous answer, he decided I was beyond saving and added me to his blacklist of people he couldn't stand.

Word on the street was that at every college reunion, William never missed an opportunity to roast both me and Alexander.

In his eyes, I was just a stubborn fool with terrible taste, willingly putting up with Alexander's condescending nonsense like some kind of masochist.

So, me leaving Alexander?

Yeah, no way in hell he'd believe that.

Which is why when I got an interview invite from his firm, I wasn't exactly thrilled.

I had a sneaking suspicion William just wanted to call me in so he could laugh in my face.

I mentally prepared myself, running through all possible comebacks to his inevitable insults.

But to my surprise, William wasn't even there.

The person interviewing me was one of his associates, a young lawyer he was mentoring.

By the time he got back, I'd already been at the firm for a week.

My coworkers were surprisingly nice to me.

At first, I didn't get why.

Then William came back.

And suddenly, the entire office was on edge.
