The Doormat Wife’s Ultimate Glow-Up novel Chapter 209

Tara had just gotten a message from the Ratcliff family. She figured Reese must be up to her neck dealing with their drama, way too busy to care about anything else. Perfect, she thought, she’d finally have a chance to talk to Zach about taking over the BlackOak market.

But then she overheard something she never saw coming. Zach had been digging into Reese behind her back, and he’d even found out it was Dylon who drugged her all those years ago.

Now he was actually planning to team up with the board and push her out of the company—all for Reese. All she’d done for him these past years—did that mean nothing?

How could he be so cruel? She was carrying his child right now!

Tara staggered back a step, her heart pounding. She knew Zach too well. If there was anything he hated, it was betrayal and lies. That’s why he’d held a grudge against Reese for so long.

Now that he knew the real story, there was no way he’d ever let her or the Ramos family off the hook.

No. She wasn’t just going to sit here and wait for her world to fall apart. She needed to throw Zach off his game, buy herself some time, and come up with a plan.

As Zach’s assistant finished up with the lawyers, Zach grabbed his coat and walked out. Tara spun around and hurried back to her own office.

She held her belly, pacing the office in a panic.

Maybe she could get the Ratcliff family to believe Reese was the one who hurt Mr. Ratcliff. If Zach and the Ratcliffs went at each other, that would give her extra time, and if things went her way, she could even take Reese down for good, brand her as a murderer.

The thought sent a cold glimmer through her eyes. She pulled out her phone and dialed Leslie.

Rosie had mentioned before that Leslie had been given Mr. Ratcliff’s nurse schedule. Now that Mr. Ratcliff was in trouble, Leslie would be involved too. Getting Reese thrown in jail would only help Leslie, so she’d have every reason to go along with it.

The phone rang. Leslie picked up, sounding almost in a good mood. “Hello? Who’s this?”
