The Ultimate Betrayal—And My Sweet Revenge My heart pounded as I walked down the office hallway, my heels clicking against the polished floor. This is it. After nearly a year of sleepless nights, endless drafts, and relentless effort, my project was finally ready. This wasn’t just any project—it was my masterpiece. The one that would change everything.
