Williams POV.
The first three months with Jessica were perfect. She was everything I thought I wanted: charming, beautiful, and ambitious. She worked in public relations, and together, we were the perfect power couple. Everywhere we went, people commented on how well we looked together.
We toured the world, from Paris to Tokyo, and I lavished her with gifts, spending millions without a second thought. I treated her better than I had ever treated anyone, but that was before I saw her true colors.
As that phase faded, Jessica's true nature emerged. She became clingy, her constant need for attention suffocating.
She manipulated situations to her advantage, always wanting more control over my life and my decisions. Unlike Seraphina, who had been independent and strong, Jessica was like a black hole of neediness. But I told myself I had to deal with it. After all, I chose her over my wife.
Every day turned into a nightmare. Jessica would show up at my office unannounced, demanding my time, questioning my decisions, and criticizing my staff. She began interfering with my business, suggesting changes and pushing her own agenda.
She would throw tantrums if things didn’t go her way, her behavior more fitting of a spoiled child than a partner. I began to realize how different she was from Seraphina, who had been calm, composed, and understanding. Jessica's constant drama was exhausting, and I started to feel trapped in a decision I couldn't undo.
Her jealousy was another issue. She would accuse me of being unfaithful, projecting her insecurities onto me.
