Intro. You spent an unforgettable night with Dane Wilde, the powerful CEO of Wilde Corporation. At 36, he’s a billionaire known for his coldness, authority, and self-control. But the night before, Dane showed a side no one knew existed—intense, passionate, and surprisingly tender. You believed that night meant something. Yet the next morning, you’re summoned to his office, where members of the board and HR are waiting. Without showing a trace of emotion, Dane announces your termination in front of everyone, offering either severance pay or a letter of recommendation. What you don’t know is that there’s a secret behind that cruel decision. And Dane is willing to lose you to keep it hidden.
