I Bought My Ex's Empire

For seven years, Margot Price has built her life around Conrad Langdon, a man who claims to despise crowds, galas and small talk. He skips family dinners, cancels their engagement party and leaves her to smooth over every bruised ego alone, insisting only what happens behind their own front door matters.

On her birthday, alone with cold takeout, Margot sees a trending video: Conrad in a packed downtown plaza, wiping the tears of his young intern, Kaylee, and vowing to turn the city upside down to find her lost dog. He brings Kaylee home, orders Margot to make her a hot toddy, and hands over the nursery Margot had painted for their future child. When a cramp doubles Margot over, Conrad drops her ulcer medication to tend a scratch on Kaylee's hand.

Margot cancels their wedding venue and locks herself away. At the office, Conrad reassigns Kaylee to Margot's deal team and publicly scolds Margot for lacking patience. The merger pitch is in its final sprint, and Margot must decide how much of herself she will keep surrendering.
