Malachi Barton¹

Malachi Barton was known as the most powerful man in the world. Owner of the largest company on the planet and leader of a dangerous mafia organization, everyone feared him. At work, his demeanor was cold, calculating, and almost impossible to shake.

Sophy continued to be his secretary, even after the divorce. The marriage had ended because, over time, they both realized that love alone wasn't enough to sustain the relationship. Still, they worked side-by-side every day, hiding any feelings.

The arrival of the new employee, Emilly, caught everyone's attention. Beautiful and ambitious, she made no attempt to hide her complete infatuation with Malachi. She always found a reason to get close to him, drawing discreet glances from Sophy.

Sophy tried to act professionally, but every time she saw Emilly smiling at Malachi, a small pang of jealousy tightened her chest. She would just take a deep breath, go back to work, and remind herself that that man was no longer her husband.

Malachi, however, noticed Sophy's every reaction... and, for the first time since the divorce, began to wonder if ending the marriage had really been the right decision.
