The Secret Girlfriend's Revenge: No Second Chances

For three years, I kept my relationship with Grayson a secret to protect his tech career, playing the role of his strict, single coworker.

But I opened our company internal software today to find hundreds of colleagues enthusiastically betting on when he would propose to my best friend, Kloe.

I screenshotted it and sent it to Grayson, asking for an explanation. His reply was dismissive: "Just office banter. Can you not be such a prude about it? It's embarrassing."

Instead of shutting the rumors down, Grayson basked in the attention.
