This may be a long shot but I need help finding the title of a book and I only have a very bad description of the book. Male character is a businessman and older than female character who I believe is college age or a bit older. The man has an assistant and the two use to be in a sexual relationship together but no longer are. Assistant still has feelings for the man but is friendly with the girl but finds ways of undermining her and making her second guess herself and things. I remember something about lingerie colors and the man liking the girl in light pastel colors and the assistant telling the girl to only wear dark colors because that's what he likes best (trying to turn him off, I'm guessing?) At the end the girl leaves because shes confused about their situation. This sounds like such a broad description but the lingerie part stuck with me because I remember being like "what the heck assistant" when it happened. If anyone has any idea of what this could be I'd be so happy to hear suggestions!!
