A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 236

Lisa was very sure Mary would give in since Tom was her Achilles' heel. It was enough to destroy her.

It felt so good to be in charge of other's destiny.

After Lisa left, Mary nearly collapsed on her chair. She was astound. Her affair was indeed her biggest mistake ever. Being with Tom was like being an addict; she could not get herself to stop. But, now she had to find a way to make up for everything.

Mary and Tom were childhood sweethearts. Mary had assured him that she would marry him.

They lost contact with one another during college. Mary worked hard and achieved an excellent academic result. Her abilities made her the prime candidate for secretary to the CEO of the Mu Group.

But Mary knew she wanted more. With her current job, there would be no higher salary. She wanted to live a good life, and so she thought of settling down with a wealthy husband. Someone who could provide more.

She was an attractive woman with a beautiful figure to flaunt.

With careful planning, she became acquainted with Frank Han, the Chief Designer at Mu Group.

Their relationship went well and it was an easy decision for Mary to marry Frank. He loved her deeply and bestowed her with expensive gifts. Mary got used to this lavish lifestyle with him, though she never really felt the same way about him.

Despite her lack of feelings for Frank, she refused to leave him. He had the means to support her ideal lifestyle.

Mary was living a good life with Frank, just as she had planned for herself. All this was until she bumped into Tom two years ago. She realized she was still madly in love with him. As for Tom, he was devastated by the fact that Mary was married. Emboldened by their mutual feelings, they decided to rekindle their friendship. At first, they met weekly for a casual meal. Things got complicated when they got drunk at one such tryst.

One thing led to the next. Mary had never felt such passion with Frank.

She was in a fix. She knew that if she gave into Lisa's demands now, then it would not be the end of them. At no cost did she want Lisa to start controlling her life.

Yes, she cheated! But if she stole the designs, she would be breaking the law. She could go to prison for stealing trade secrets.

Mary had been going through every detail and conversation over and over again. After weighing the implications, she decided to comply with Lisa's request. There was no other way out. If Frank found out, he would divorce her.

So Mary decided to steal the design for Lisa, but she would also tell her that this would be the first and only time.
