When Enough is Enough Chapter 1
My stomach knotted with pain. I had just come home from the hospital and had barely stepped inside when Wayne Gale grabbed my wrist."So, feeling bold now, huh? Do you even know what Mr. Murphy said about me?" he demanded. "He thinks I've been spoiling you! Georgina Lawson, you messed up this contract, and you're going to apologize to him!"I yanked my hand free and replied flatly, "I'm not going. I don't need a disrespectful client. If the company insists on working with someone like that, fine. I'll resign."My words sent a surge of anger through him. He stared at me, as if he hadn't expected me to stand up to him like that.Ignoring him, I walked over to the coffee table, retrieved the medication the doctor had prescribed, and swallowed a pill. Then, I glanced back at him.At that moment, Wayne was glued to his phone. Whatever he saw on the screen made his lips curl into a smile."I've got to go. They need me at work.""Okay," I said indifferently.My calm demeanor seemed to

Wayne crossed his arms, completely unfazed. "Leave if you want. But once you walk out that door, don't expect another chance from me."I took a deep breath. "No need for any more chances. It's been eight years, Wayne. I'm exhausted. It's over."With that, I tossed him the keys and walked out without a backward glance.Behind me, he yelled, "Georgina, don't come running back when you regret this!"I never did things I'd regret. The only blemish in my life was the eight years I had spent entangled with him. After all that time, I was genuinely worn out.Now that it was time to leave, I felt no guilt.…After leaving the house, I checked into a hotel. In the silence, thoughts rushed in like a flood. I sorted out my affairs and submitted my resignation.When HR found out, the manager was stunned. She texted me, "What happened, Georgina? You were doing so well. Why leave so suddenly?"Is it because of Hannah? She's gone way too far, throwing her weight around just because she's c

I nodded. "Didn't you say it yourself, Mr. Gale? The company will do just fine without me. In that case, I'd love to see how you plan to turn things around."Wayne's expression darkened upon hearing that. With a dismissive wave, he ordered, "Hannah, keep an eye on her!"Of course, Hannah obeyed immediately.I carefully reviewed the handover document. After confirming everything was in order, I signed it and started packing up my things. But just as I was ready to leave with my personal items, Hannah blocked my way. "Sorry, Georgina, but we'll need to check your things. It's just to prevent any leaks of company secrets."I chuckled and met her gaze. "Who do you think you are to go through my things? The boss' wife?"Her cheeks turned red with embarrassment as several colleagues turned to look. She stood rooted to the spot, a hint of malice flashing in her eyes.Right then, a voice rang out behind me. "Her orders are my orders!"Wayne stepped forward, and Hannah's face brightene

Anger consumed me as I clenched my fists tightly. My nails dug into my flesh, yet I felt no pain. I never imagined that the man I once loved would humiliate me like this.I was about to strike when a voice cut through the tension. "I don't see her as your possession. In fact, her achievements are something you can only dream of."A man who rides on a woman's coattails and then tosses her aside when he makes it big is a real fool. Don't you agree, Mr. Gale?"At the sight of Logan, Wayne's eyes widened in surprise. "Mr. Quigley!" he exclaimed.Beside him, Hannah perked up. It was clear she was interested in Logan. Unfortunately for her, he would never be drawn to someone as pretentious as she was.Wayne began, "Georgina, why didn't you introduce us? When did you and Mr. Quigley—""Mr. Gale, I've joined Prime Net Technologies," I cut him off sharply. "From now on, we're on opposite sides, so please call me Ms. Lawson. And by the way, we've broken up."Wayne's expression hardened in

When I returned home, Wayne suddenly appeared outside my apartment. As soon as he saw me, he rushed forward, grabbed my wrist, and pulled me inside. Caught off guard, I found myself pinned against the wall. "What the hell are you doing?" I snapped."Georgina, you did it. I admit, I fell apart after you left. Please, come back to me."Wayne held my hand as he gazed into my eyes, as if this were a heartfelt moment. I couldn't help but laugh at his theatrics.He frowned at my reaction, trying to look charming. "What's so funny?""I'm really impressed by your acting skills. Has being with Hannah sharpened your game? Too bad you both come off like second-rate actors!"My words left him momentarily speechless. I pushed him away and flung open the door, demanding, "Get out! If you don't, I'll call the police. "Surely, you don't want to be trending on social media tomorrow? 'Bright Star's Wayne Gale Busted for Breaking into a Woman's Apartment!' How's that for a headline?"He froze

After giving it some thought, I said, "I remember that Wayne had mentioned something about participating in a party at a luxurious cruise ship. The party is hosted by some big foreign company. I didn't accept the invite because I thought it was too risky."It seemed like someone intentionally got Wayne to sign the contract. As for who the person was and why they did so, I had no idea. After all, it had nothing to do with me. But on second thought, I couldn't simply dismiss it. I reminded Logan to be prepared—Bright Star Technologies could be going bankrupt. Logan was surprised to hear that. "You don't seem to be surprised at all. Why?"I shrugged and said, "This has nothing to do with me after all. Business is business. I'm in this to make money. I have no intention of giving my competitors money."Besides, we'll only be able to compete with the large conglomerates if we acquire Bright Star Technologies.""Yeah, you're right. Let's allow them to keep doing as they please for no

I was disgusted by Wayne's voice. So, I walked around him to head upstairs, but he caught up to me."Stop hiding from me, Georgina. I've bought a unit right across from yours!" he shouted."You're out of your mind!" I turned around to look at him. "Wayne, we've broken up. Can you stay away from me?""Georgina, I know that the past eight years of our relationship have been unforgettable," he began. "I've only come to realize how hard negotiating is after you left."Hannah is nothing but a pretty face. I only hired her to look pretty. Why are you holding a grudge against her?"I only have feelings for you. It's been so long since you've worked under Logan, but you haven't accomplished anything. "Even if you managed to get a couple of deals, you didn't get them with your own abilities. Logan gave them to you to make you look good. "So, please, Georgina, you should come back to me. You'll run the household, and I'll run the company. Let's never be apart again, okay?"Wayne looked
When Enough is Enough Chapter 8
Hannah sent some profanities at me when she saw the video, and I blocked her account right away. Wayne was the only one who should be suffering her wrath. After about two months of effort from my team, we were able to poach almost all of Wayne's oldest clients.He didn't care about it because he thought the support of a foreign conglomerate would be more than enough. I didn't hesitate to poach all of his clients after their contracts with him expired. I was able to bring in billions of dollars of sales to Prime Net Technologies and became the best salesperson in the company. Logan gave me some shares and promoted me to vice president of the company. Then, I became a big shot in the company. Everyone knew I used to work for Bright Star Technologies. I was able to negotiate a deal with anyone I talked with, but Wayne was unable to see the true value of my skills. So, he drove me out for another woman. Since I was driven out, I didn't hesitate to bring all of my previous client
