My Wife is a Sassy Queen

Mariana went about her days in a mundane manner.

She would go to work and come home on time. She would often visit Liliana’s house and play with the kids.

James worked as her assistant and even asked for a valid contract for the role. She would be a fool not to take such an opportunity.

James was qualified to be the CEO. Because of him, her work improved tremendously, and she learned a lot.

He took care of her subtly and never overstepped his boundaries. He let her handle decisions and decide for herself. He only spoke up and taught her if she asked.

The entire office saw the change in their dynamics but did not comment on it.

The upper management and shareholders relaxed upon seeing this change. They had been worried about their future CEO having such an unusual dynamic with James Miller, the CEO of Miller Group. But now that James had resigned from Miller Group and legally worked as Mariana’s assistant, their fears proved unfounded.

On the other hand, James’s parents were getting restless. They were aware of James’s ongoing activities. A small part of them acknowledged their faults, but they were too proud to admit it.

Besides, James was their only child. He should have shown them respect and tried to gloss over the issue. If only James could grow a spine, they wouldn’t be in such a predicament.

But it was done and dusted, and they felt helpless. Mr. Miller was getting angrier by the day because James left without notice, and he had to take over all the work in the company.

Not that he wasn’t involved in it before. But now, he had to do everything by himself. It was very tiring as he was getting on age.

A woman came to them bringing gifts and a plan which provided them some respite.

The Millers did not like Mariana. They had approved of her previously because she was the heir of Jacobsens and had a good reputation. But seeing the hold she had on James, they changed their minds.

They did not want anyone challenging their authority.

Moreover, James had already chosen her over them. They couldn’t go to James with a tail between their legs.

When Mariana was enjoying her mundane life, a rumor broke that upended her life.

The internet went rife with the news that Liam Preston, the Colonel of the P City Military, was suspended for his illicit affair.

He had impregnated Andrew Jacobsen’s daughter, Mariana Jacobsen, and left her without taking responsibility after her miscarriage. Then, he threatened James Miller and forced him to take responsibility.

James’s childhood sweetheart – Alice Moss – was thrown in prison because Liam had led her to commit a crime. James, afraid of implicating his parents, had left his family and worked for Mariana Jacobsen to assuage Mariana when Liam did not want to take responsibility.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Mariana’s mother, Meredith, fainted on seeing the news.

Liam’s grandmother had a panic attack, and the butler quickly brought her to the hospital.

The doctors advised that they needed to observe her for two days because of her ill health.

At the same time, someone sent an anonymous letter to Liam’s superior and his superior’s superiors, which brought everything under scrutiny.

The final nail in the coffin came from the Millers. James’s mother admitted to the rumors on social media and begged for justice.

She repeatedly stressed that Liam had threatened James – and James was unwillingly taking the blame.

When Old Madam Preston came around, she analyzed everything and realized someone from her family, who knew the ins and outs of the Military, was the culprit behind everything.

She was utterly embarrassed and did not know how to show her face to Mariana or her parents.

Mariana was caught unaware!

She couldn’t wrap her head around the sudden disaster. She knew she would never come out of it unscathed.
