They Took My Uterus While She Took My Place in His Bed novel Chapter 9

While I was away, Olivia had been interning at the company.

Liam had her set up in my office—to learn from me, apparently.

Except I wasn't there.

Lately, Liam had been personally mentoring her.

But according to my assistant, he had been working until three in the morning every night.

Not even Olivia could persuade him to leave.

The entire company had been swept into his overdrive, and everyone was exhausted.

"The missus is still so young."

"Keeping up with Mr. Bennett's pace like this… it's really wearing her down."

I froze for a second.

Then it hit me—she was calling Olivia ‘the missus.'

I wasn't sure if it was Olivia's doing or Liam's.

But in everyone's eyes, that girl was already his fiancée.

And me?

It was only then that I realized—

After ten years of building this company with him, of standing by his side—

Not a single person here knew that I was his wife.

I grabbed my resignation letter and walked straight to Liam's office.

The hallway outside was packed with department heads waiting for meetings.

Clearly, my assistant hadn't been exaggerating.

With me gone, Liam had to handle everything himself.

Managers bustled in and out, while Olivia hovered at his side, serving coffee and playing the perfect assistant.

I walked right up to Liam and handed him the papers.

"Have you signed the divorce papers yet?"

A wave of murmurs spread through the crowd.

Everyone's eyes darted to Olivia, and whispers reached our ears.
