The Good Show Arranged by the Two-faced QueenChapter 1
After a video of me holding hands with a middle-aged man in Times Square went viral online, it was exposed quickly that the middle-aged man was a well-known married entrepreneur, while I was just his mistress.
Then, I was cyberbullied ruthlessly.
But I didn't care at all. Looking at the text message on my phone that just notified me that I received 5 million dollars, I knew the real show had just begun.
My name was Camilla Juarez, running a relationship consulting company. All of my employees were women, and our main job was to help those wronged spouses gain the maximum benefits when their husbands had cheated.
The specific actions we took depend on the client's needs. For example, some wronged spouses just wanted to drive away the mistresses and get back their husbands.
Others wanted to gather as much evidence as possible to secure more financial compensation.
These were just the most common services our company provides. If a client wanted more complex services, like us pretending to be another mistress to kick away the original mistress, it would be more expensive.
And if they wanted me personally involved, it cost a lot more.
One day a year ago, I received such a big order.
The client was Karina Schmitt, the youngest daughter coming from the the Schmitt Group, a well-known company around the country. She wanted me to investigate her second elder brother called Derrick Schmitt, who was the second son of the Schmitt family and vice president of the Schmitt Group.
It turned out that Derrick had a wife, who was the daughter of one of Derrick's father, Carter Schmitt's fallen comrades. To repay his comrade's kindness and to take care of the only daughter he left behind, Carter arranged for his unmarried second son to marry her.
Twenty years had passed, and Derrick and his wife had two children, living a happy and fulfilling life. Carter was very satisfied. Therefore, on his 69th birthday last year, he declared that in two years he would hand over the company to the next generation to manage.
It was well known that the Schmitt family had two sons and one daughter. The eldest son had been schemed against in business battles early on. Though he survived, he could no longer be involved in work and had to live as a wealthy idler for the rest of his life.
