My Bossy Secretary Chapter 13 – The Good Sleep Thief
(Frank’s POV) “I’ve never seen you this excited in coming to the office, Frank,” Sky glanced at me, grinning as he looked quickly at his wristwatch, then at the changing colors of the floor buttons in the elevator. This has been one of the things I considered my perks when I was with Sky; the elevator would never be crowded unless his kids were with us in the elevator. No employee would want to join the lift with the chairman of the company inside. I chuckled, checking the time. It was nine past fifteen already, reaching Sky’s goal after our business trip. He wanted us to arrive at the office before ten because he was hoping to see his wife, Angela, before starting his day. “I’m always this excited, Sky,” I muttered, half-smiling and cursing myself quietly that I could not hide my excitement in going to the office today. He scoffed at me. “I knew when you’re excited or not, Frank. Your only difference with Finn is that we may not be brothers by blood, but we’re family already.” I
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 14 – One Step At A Time
(Frank’s POV)“Have you explained everything to her?” I asked Finn when Lexi left the room, not expecting him to answer me. Although we’re friends, I never bothered him in the workplace.“She signed the contract, Frank. What do you want me to do?” He grinned, glancing at me and then turning his eyes on the screen.I almost hissed at him, wishing we were drinking rather than talking in his office. It was easier to talk to Finn about women when we were holding glasses of alcohol than being here in the office. I chose just to heave a deep sigh rather than talk and reminded myself that desperation could be powerful, and Finn seemed to have won a prize for getting a secretary.A work wife.It was worse than the condition I signed a few years back.Finn turned his head toward the door and impatiently pursed his lips. “I only ask her to photocopy the contract. What’s taking her this long?”“I’ll check on her,” I muttered in a low voice, keeping my temper and standing up.“Thank you. The mach
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 15 – Beautiful But Not Attractive
(Lexi’s POV)I must be sick, repeatedly blinking at the document in my hand. Today was the third time I had seen my contract, the first was when I stupidly signed it without reading the contents, and the second was when Catherine and I reviewed the details.“You’re allowed to breathe, Lexi,” Finn grinned as he relaxed, leaning on the backrest of his executive chair.Frank heaved a sigh, his silent way of saying the same, so I inhaled and exhaled, doing it again as I thought, why on earth did I get trapped in this contract?Ah! It was my earnest hope that I would be able to help my twin sister in earning and saving money for Aliyah’s operation. She wasn’t even a year older than me, just a few minutes, but between us, she had a greater share in our expenses at home since she earned more from singing at the bar. I needed a good and stable job.I read the first part, nodding and agreeing that I would faithfully do the best of my ability to carry out my duties and responsibilities as his w
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 16 – Finn’s Shadow
(Lexi’s POV)“Well, Frank’s a good man,” Finn muttered, leaning again on the backrest and looking at me, but he avoided my eyes when I turned my head to him.“I know,” I said.“Ah, you know… Really?” He raised his eyebrows as if I had said something funny. He crossed his arms to his chest and looked at Finn, then me.“I know a good man when I see one, Finn,” I said, and Frank is one, but he seemed not ready to let it go, poking fun at me.He nodded, lifting the corners of his mouth, but his reaction did not convince me, annoying me more.“But…” He met my eyes. “Why him?”“I’m here, Finn,” Frank scoffed and waved his hand. “I’m the one she wanted to date. Do you have a problem with it? Can’t you accept that she wants to date me, not you?”“I know a good man when I see one, Finn,” Finn said the exact words I uttered a while ago, copying my tone and facial expression. “I don’t care if she wants to date you, Frank. She’s the one who started it.”“Me?” I rolled my eyes. “You’re the one who
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 17 – Frank Is Not A Cat
(Lexi’s POV)It was only before six in the evening when I got home.Exhausted, I sat on the couch, leaned on the backrest, and closed my eyes, replaying in my mind how my day had gone. Finn didn’t mind that I spent most of my day with Frank as he busied himself attending meetings. When he left his office this morning, he didn’t return, just sending me a message to learn everything I could from Frank.Frank was a real gentleman and a professional, teaching me everything I needed to learn for my job. He showed me how he and Catherine dealt with their everyday work, especially on busy days. He gave me tips and a little information about how Finn worked and how I should push my boss when he felt uninspired to do his job. He shared how Angela and Finn competed at work despite holding and managing different companies and told me funny stories about them.Angela seemed to be the one pushing or inspiring Finn, but I didn’t see it that way. Something about him intrigued me, but I remembered I
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 18 – Walking On Thin Ice
(Lexi’s POV)“Wait!” I shouted, running toward the elevator and telling the last one who entered to hold it open for me. I took my ID card, tapping it immediately on the small screen to open the turnstile, giving me access to enter the company. The employee held the button, waiting patiently for me while I ran toward them like zombies were chasing me. “Whew!” I breathed out, closing my eyes and stopping in front of the elevator for a second to catch my breath. I didn’t know why I had to run like nuts when I was still an hour earlier than my official working time, but I wanted everything to be ready before Finn arrived at the office.“Are you okay?” He asked.I nodded, opening my eyes. “Thank -” I bit my bottom lip, but my heart stopped beating when I saw who owned the finger still pressing the hold button.“Thank you,” I said in a panic, walking immediately inside. Frank only released his touch on the button when I was inside the lift.I stretched my lips, forcing a smile while I
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 19 – Small Favor
(Lexi’s POV)“Why does Sky want to talk to me?”My eyes widened, almost whispering as I asked Frank when we were done eating breakfast. He just received a call from Catherine to relay the message to me, and after he ended their conversation, he helped me clear the table.Frank chuckled amusingly, glancing at me and picking up the paper bag on the table. “Catherine didn’t say, but why do you look so worried?” He asked as he opened the door, stopped while his other hand held the doorknob, and waited for me. “He’ll probably just ask about your first day.”I nodded, thinking about what I should tell him when my first day as secretary was a mess. Should I say to him about Colonel? Complain about my dislike of dogs? Does he know about his relationship with Lexa? Did Finn tell him about the kiss?“You’re making me worry, Lexi,” Frank uttered, looking at me with concern. “You’re turning pale. White as a ghost.”“Sorry, but it’s like being called by the school principal.” I smiled at him ner
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 20 – Not A Playground
(Lexi’s POV)Did I hear it right?Sky wanted me to be more than a work wife to Finn. I cleared my throat, blinking my eyes at him and opening my mouth, but no words came out.He raised his index finger and chuckled. “Wait. I’m sorry for startling you with my words.” He placed his hands on his lap. “Let me clear that one.”I nodded. “Please,” I whispered and swallowed hard.I had no intention of becoming someone else in the Mars’ life, and even the possibility of becoming Finn’s future sister-in-law was still hard to visualize. Our lives were not only miles apart, but we were like heaven and earth.No… It was more like I was on earth, while the Mars were part of the universe.“Finn,” he sighed deeply. “Lexi, this is a difficult favor I am asking you,” he looked into my eyes and smiled. “But if you feel like leaving him because he is becoming difficult, stay with him.”I leaned my head forward, my eyes blinking as I wondered why the chairman of the Mars Group of Companies was asking me
