I sat back in my chair and looked with satisfaction at the stack of magazines on my desk. They were the physical proof that everything I had worked so hard for over the past year had paid off.
Each one had a blurry photo of Tallon and a headline about his arrest.
I was finally getting everything that I wanted, everything that I deserved.
The family had done a good job of covering it up, so only seedy gossip magazines were running the story right now, but word of Tallon’s arrest was spreading quickly.
Soon, the trial would begin, and the family wouldn’t be able to hide the truth anymore. The public reputation Tallon had worked so hard to build was damaged for good. Now the world knew that he was nothing but a low life.
I smiled bitterly.
I didn’t want things to come to this, but he’d made his bed with that damned Russian, so there was no way around it. He had to pay for turning his back on his family, all for some woman.
