She grabbed my chin, her fingers digging in, forcing my mouth open.

"You want to be a whore so badly? Then eat it!"

A piece of chicken, dripping with red-hot chili sauce, was shoved against my face.

An agonizing sting shot through my eyes and nose, and a scream tore from my throat.

Jessica clapped her hands together lightly, her face a mask of disgust. "Ugh, so greasy. You almost ruined my new manicure."

She looked down at me. "Don't tell me you actually believe that old saying about the way to a man's heart being through his stomach."

"What gives a low-class nobody like you the right to even look at Mr. Sterling?"

I tried to explain, but the chili in my mouth made me choke and cough.

It was in my windpipe; I couldn't speak.

Just then, there was a knock at the conference room door.

"Jess? What's that noise in there?"

A wave of relief washed over me; I was saved.

But Jessica just smirked and casually opened the door.

"This woman was trying to seduce Mr. Sterling. I'm just teaching her a lesson."

The other assistants at the door looked at me with contempt.

"Mr. Sterling is just too handsome. These desperate sluts are always crawling out of the woodwork."

"Don't you worry, Jess. You've been by his side for five years. He only has eyes for you."

Jessica snorted. "Obviously."

She turned back to me, her eyes full of venom as I lay helpless on the floor. "Some people just have to learn the hard way."

My hand trembled as I fumbled for my phone, trying to call my husband.

Suddenly, Jessica’s eyes went cold, fixing on my phone.

In the next second, she snatched it away.

Her eyes lit up with a green, jealous fire as she stared at the back of my phone.

"You've got some nerve. Bold as brass, using a matching phone case with Mr. Sterling."

She smashed my phone on the ground, shattering it to pieces.

"Bitch!"

Jessica was like a furious lioness, grabbing a fistful of my hair and slapping me again and again.

"I was going to let you go, but I've changed my mind."

"A cheap whore like you needs to be taught a lesson you'll never forget."

She threw me to the floor like a dirty rag.

"Girls, this tramp was trying to seduce the boss. Should we strip her naked?"
