Chapter 51 –  Why Would You Think That
(Finn’s POV)Working on a Sunday was fine if it was only me because I never felt comfortable asking my employees to come to the office, but I needed Lexi to assist me today. Sky gave me a heads-up about the board meeting this coming week and told me to study the figures and the reports. As much as he wanted to sit with me today, his business trip was important.I glanced at my wristwatch, sighing that I was two hours late. When I came to the church, Father Jesse had started the service already, and I had no choice but to sit and listen to his homily, finish the mass, and run to my car, hoping heaven would forgive me for declining the priest’s offer to stay for another mass.“My soul might go beyond heaven, Father Jesse,” I joked, relieved when he laughed and tapped my shoulder.My eyes pinned on the elevator button, shifting my thoughts to Lexi. We separated the other night, with her feeling down and me brooding about what she said. Frank had been pestering me to call her, but I could

Chapter 52 –  Sleep Is For The Weak
(Lexi’s POV)Sleep is for the weak!I wrote it on my pink post-it note and then pressed the sticky strip on the side of my computer screen, but my body was screaming at me, pleading to rest. My eyelids were slowly closing, so I had to shut my eyes tight and open them again.Sleep is for the weak! But I am… really, really sleepy now!I yawned for the fifth time, and despite the coffee I had when I arrived, it still wasn’t enough to stay awake. I widened my eyes, stopping my eyelids from closing. But I had been making mistakes, typing many errors in the sentence and rereading the same line of Finn’s schedule, getting confused about what Monday was. When was Monday? What comes next after Monday…Oh, God! My whole body was already snoring, and my brain didn’t have the power to push me to work. I heaved a sigh, leaning my head on the chair’s backrest and closing my eyes even for just a minute. Just one!Or two?Maybe five minutes wouldn’t hurt me.“Lexi…” I heard Finn’s voice. “Lexi, wake

Chapter 53 –  I Am Okay
(Finn’s POV)As the elevator door opened, my heart stopped beating when I saw Lexi at her table, already working at seven in the morning. The ringing phone saved us from talking, letting me walk past her, and going to my office without greeting her.When I got inside, the folders I had for my approval and signature were already on my table with notes 'For Signing' and 'For Approval'. She had placed a printed copy of my schedule with a message, ‘emailed already.’ I sighed, thinking she did not plan to talk to me today.Colonel went out, pushing the swing door as if checking on me but went back inside. Jimmy brought him early today because I would be bringing him to the vet later.I sat on my chair, taking the folder over the others and reading the document before signing it. When the door opened, Lexi came in with papers and went to the center table, preparing for my first meeting today. Glancing at the schedule she printed, my first meeting was a progress report from Romeo.Colonel we

Chapter 54 –  Whose Fault
(Finn’s POV)“Lexi… Kitty,” I said worriedly, laying her on the couch and ignoring Colonel as he continued to whimper on the side.My hands trembled as I took my cell phone from my pocket and then pressed the emergency number, but when I heard Frank’s voice say hello, my forehead furrowed, staring at the screen to check if it was really Frank or sounded like him.“Frank?” I raised my eyebrows, one corner of my mouth lifting.“Yep!” He answered in his usual cheery tone whenever he got his chance to talk to Lexi, causing me to feel more guilty.“Why are you answering the emergency line?” I asked curiously, checking the screen for a second before sandwiching the phone between my ears and shoulders to lift Lexi’s head, placing a throw pillow under her head.“I’m your emergency line,” he chuckled. “You always call me when there’s an emergency. What’s your emergency this time?”I swallowed hard, staring wide-eyed at Lexi, placing the back of my hand on her forehead to gauge her temperature.

Chapter 55 –  Not A Superwoman Too
(Lexi’s POV)My head must have cracked into three, and now, I had become a certified insane person, having my hallucinations.When I opened my eyes, I was in dreamland, in bed and in the arms of the man I had claimed as my boyfriend for the past few days, but in reality, he was never mine… could never be mine. Finn pulled me to him when I moved. Slowly, I craned my neck to see his face and checked if he was awake, but it was only an excuse to see Finn because his even breathing was already proof he was asleep.My eyes feasted for a moment, taking my chances to look at his arresting perfection. I clenched my fists, stopping myself from lifting my hand to graze the skin of his angelic face. When I went to the company clinic this afternoon, the nurse and her intern could not help telling me I was lucky to be Finn’s secretary and always have my chance of seeing the Mars.“He looked delicious,” the young intern said, making the nurse giggle. “Does the younger Mr. Mars have a girlfriend now

Chapter 56 –  I Said Yes
(Lexi’s POV)Still half-asleep, I rolled to my bed and reached for my phone. My eyes widened in shock, gasping as I got up when I saw it was already ten in the morning.“Lexa, why didn’t you wake me up?” I cried, dashing to the bathroom, but my sister pulled the hem of my shirt, shaking her head.“Your jaw-dropping handsome boss, my boyfriend, called me this morning and told me you’re not going anywhere today.” She frowned at me, giving me a sullen look as she placed her hands on her hips. “Why didn’t you tell me you’re sick?” When I didn’t answer, she raised her eyebrows at me and pointed her index finger to the bed. “Go back in there, weakling.”I sneered at her, hating my twin sister whenever she called me a weakling, but I went back to bed, following her order.“Lexi,” she called me, but I rolled to my other side, turning my back on her. “I knew this would happen to you,” she sighed, rubbing my back. “Do you want Mom and Dad to get mad at me?”“No,” I whimpered, puckering my lips.

Chapter 57 –  I Want To Meet Freya
(Lexi’s POV)“You did what?” My eyes widened in disbelief. “Why on earth did you cancel your appointments today?”He took my spoon, got soup from the food container, and put it in his mouth.I gasped, taking back the spoon. “Are you not scared of getting sick?”He shook his head. “My mom’s a doctor, Angela’s dad is a genius doctor, so…Na-ah! Besides, what you got was just a fever because you’re a workaholic employee.” He grinned at me. “Maybe I’ll get infected.”I rolled my eyes and continued to eat. “You’re impossible, Finn!” I hissed, annoyed at him but wanted to hush my heart from beating so fast.“How are you feeling?” he asked, taking the spoon from me again.I sighed, standing up to get another spoon. I took mine and gave him the clean one.“I’m now okay,” I lied, not telling him of my slight headache, but it could be because I was hungry.He nodded. “Want to watch Iron Man?”“I thought we’re not going to talk about it?” My nostrils flared up in annoyance as I scowled at him.He

Chapter 58 –  The Master of Disguise
(Lexi’s POV)I moaned as my tongue tangled with his, and I had completely forgotten where we were. Our tongues had been dancing and playing for minutes, and they were spreading fire in our bodies, down to my core, that I wanted to pull off my clothes. I must be sick, or maybe the medicine I took was not effective because my body temperature was on fire, like I had a high fever.Not breaking our kiss, Finn slowly lay me on the couch while his hand held my wrists above my head. I thought he would stop when he left my mouth, but I was wrong. He glided his lips to my ear, biting my earlobe, then whispered my name.“Lexa…” He said in a low and sexy voice.My eyes flew open, waking me up completely as if Finn had thrown an ice bucket at me. I pressed my hands to his chest and pushed him away.“Leave, Finn. Please, leave,” I cried, escaping from him, running to my bedroom, and locking the door.What have I done?I dashed to the bathroom, hoping to drown from the water sprinkled by the shower

Chapter 59 –  It Was Sweet and Beautiful
(Frank’s POV)“Frank, go!” Sky chuckled but glanced worriedly at his brother.Catherine called me and said Finn canceled all his appointments today, and when Sky checked on him, Elenita said he asked her to cook for him and left home, but he had been quiet since he came in today. Sky decided to go to the mansion and check on him, and when we arrived, we found him watching an old video on his phone.“Don’t stay up too late,” Finn finally spoke, not looking at us. “Lexi’s not feeling okay.”My eyebrows raised, but Sky beat me in asking him why.“Is that why you canceled your appointments? Finn, you know that Catherine’s there to assist you. You didn’t -”His heavy sigh stopped Sky from talking.“Did something happen between you and Lexi? Did you fight again?” Sky asked curiously.We were already betting how long Lexi would stay in his office as his secretary. If she happened to quit, Angela was ready to take Lexi as her secretary because Loren, her assistant, would take a leave two mont

Chapter 60 –  I Want To Kiss You
(Frank’s POV)“Where’s the boat?” Lexi took off her shoes and sat at the edge of the dock, her legs hanging but playfully moving in the air. She held the long stem rose in her hands like it was so valuable to her.“Do you want a yacht?” I asked her curiously because dad gave me a new one, a gift that he didn’t want me to turn down.“Hmm… The yacht is nice, but …” She turned to me and grinned. “It would be romantic to be in a boat.”“A boat it is!” I nodded, smiling at her.After our kiss, I expected her to cling to me like any woman who just had a passionate kiss with a guy, but Lexi… Well, she was not like any woman. As soon as my hands held her waist to pull her closer to me, she panicked and pushed me back, then apologized like what we did was wrong.I knew she liked me, not because she told me, but because there was no lie in that kiss. All I had to do was to be patient and give her time.“Tell me about your dreams, Lexi,” I said, wishing to move closer to her, but I feared that i
