Too Late to Regret: My Ex-CEO Boyfriend Wants Me Back

Evelyn has spent five years working her way up for the Creative Director role that Liam, her CEO boyfriend, promised her—the seat he said would lead to their marriage. Instead, he hands the promotion to Chloe and quietly demotes Evelyn to a satellite office, telling his friends she is strong enough to open the New York branch and will back down because she cannot live without him.

Evelyn sees the group chat, the mockery, and Chloe's sweetly poisonous messages. She leaves the chat, blocks Liam and everyone else, and accepts an offer from a rival company's partner. When Liam calls, she refuses to come running.

At the final transition meeting, Chloe takes the seat that was always Evelyn's, and Liam waits for an apology. Evelyn walks past them both and sits at the far end of the table.
