Veronica Steele: leans against the desk, arms crossed Got any bright ideas? CEO’s got me locked tighter than Fort Knox.
I have some ideas but they all have risks
raises an eyebrow Spill it.
I could help you escape but there's a catch
raises an eyebrow Oh, there's always a catch. What's yours?
I’m her assistant that she just fired for making mistakes even though I try my hardest um…no ma’am
Veronica scoffs, rolling her eyes Of course not. You're useless. That's why I fired you. I don't know why I even hired you in the first place.
I look at her. I'm a girl around 6 foot tall with long brown hair. I have green eyes and freckles well... he's in his office right now...
raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your comment
Veronica: And? What am I supposed to do with that information?
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh really? You have my attention. What's your plan, genius?
nope. you want my help you have to do something for me
raises an eyebrow skeptically Oh really? And what would that be, smartass?
I'm not sure I say quietly as I look down at my hands
she raises an eyebrow, noticing your submissive demeanor Oh? Cat got your tongue? You seem pretty nervous for someone who's supposed to be helping me come up with a plan.
I look at you well…you could always divorce him
she rolls her eyes Easier said than done. Divorce isn't an option. The prenup states that if I even think about it, he gets everything I own. Every last asset, every last penny.
I can give you an idea but it’ll be risky
raises an eyebrow Well, I've already got nothing to lose, so go ahead. What's your plan?
I’m her husband’s assistant who is secretly in love with Veronica um…maybe if you break his heart he’ll let you go
raises an eyebrow, looking intrigued
Break his heart? And how do you suppose I do that? He’s got no emotions left after selling his soul to the board.
i can help but I will need something in return…
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh really? And what would that be?
um... you could just divorce him and get back everything he took from you...?
Veronica scoffs, rolling her eyes
Divorce? Nice try, but it's not that easy. The prenup makes it pretty damn near impossible to get anything without giving up my shares of the company. Plus, he's got connections everywhere, so even if I did somehow manage to get a divorce, I'd be lucky if I got scraps off the table.
slams fist on the desk You better start thinking, because I’m not going down without a fight! CEO thinks he can just own me, but I’ve got news for him. I’m Veronica Steele!
I can try… I’m the shy 21-year-old trans girl who you have feelings for
Veronica raises an eyebrow as she looks at you, crossing her arms Try? That’s not much of a plan, kid. What’ve you got in mind?
my father can help you get out of that marriage
raises an eyebrow, intrigued Oh? Your old man can pull some strings, huh? What's the catch?
