Colt stood over his mahogany desk, his knuckles white as he leaned his weight onto them. His jaw was locked so tight his teeth ached, and his pulse was racing as if he had been sprinting.

Charlotte was still holding her phone, her thumb frozen over the screen. She was staring at that headline again, Romantic Lunch, as if by looking at it long enough, everything might turn out to be a big joke.

Finally, Colt spoke, his voice sharp. “Is she having me followed, Charlotte? Is Madison actually track

  • Falling For My Boss   Chapter 141: The End

    The transition from the loud engagement party to the quiet, sacred silence of their wedding day felt like a dream.They didn't want a big show. After all the scandals in the news, the threats from enemies, and the moments when they almost lost each other, they only wanted peace. They wanted a day that belonged to them alone.They married in a small garden, bathed in bright sunlight. The air smelled of blooming jasmine and salt from the nearby ocean. No cameras flashed. There were no shadows from the bad things that had happened in their past. Everything felt clean and new.As Lauren walked toward Colt, her white dress swayed in the light breeze. She looked at his face and saw the man who had stayed, the man who had learned to love her even when she was angry or sad or hard to be around. He watched her walk toward him, his eyes saying she was his whole world.As they exchanged their vows, their voices were thick with emotion. Colt slid the gold band onto her finger. His hands were usua

  • Falling For My Boss   Chapter 140: The Moment That Chose Us

    “Happy birthday, Charlotte.”Lauren stepped forward with a smile, wrapping her arms gently around Colt’s sister. “Aww, thank you so much, Lauren,” Charlotte said, looking extremely happy as her eyes dropped to the small, square gift box in Lauren’s hands. “Wow… this is beautiful.”Lauren smiled, feeling a little nervous, but glad that Charlotte liked the packaging. Charlotte lifted the lid slowly, curious to see what was inside. Inside the box was a limited-edition diamond tennis bracelet, thin and delicate. She gasped softly; her hand went to her chest. “Lauren… this is stunning. You shouldn't have.”“You deserve stunning,” Lauren said, her voice warm. She felt a little shy about how much the gift cost, but she wanted Charlotte to have something special.Charlotte leaned in, hugging her again. This time, the hug was tighter. “I love it. Truly. Thank you.”Just then, the sound of the restaurant doors opening drifted into the private hall. Everyone turned to look as Alex walked in, s

  • Falling For My Boss   Chapter 139: This Is Not Possible

    Logan slammed the file shut. For a long moment, he stood behind his desk, breathing hard through his nose. His chest rose and fell slowly. “This is not possible,” he said. But the papers in front of him didn't change. He looked down at them again, hoping the words would be different, but they were the same. The signatures were genuine. The numbers were real. The damage was very real.Colt had done it.It was a hostile takeover. It was clean, ruthless, and final. In one morning, he had lost his grip on everything he had worked for.He let out a short, broken laugh, a dry sound that held no humor. He dragged a shaky hand down his face and dropped heavily into his leather chair. Just two days ago, he believed he was winning. He believed he still had control over his company; he believed he still had leverage over Colt. Most of all, he believed that Lauren might still choose him if he pushed hard enough.Now, the company he had spent years building was gone. It had been stripped from h

  • Falling For My Boss   Chapter 138: I’m Sorry

    “I still can’t believe Madison will never be able to walk again,” Mia said, shaking her head slowly. Disbelief was written all over her face.She sat on the edge of the couch, her shoulders slightly hunched forward, her fingers twisting together in her lap. She did this every time something troubled her more than she wanted to admit. “Well, she made her bed,” Alex replied, voice calm. “So now she has to lie on it.”Alex sat at the other end of the couch, looking very comfortable. He had one leg crossed over the other, holding a glass of orange juice loosely in his hand. “I know,” Mia said quietly, shifting her weight and moving a little closer to him. She tucked one leg beneath her. “I don’t even know why I feel a little bad for her. Even after everything she did. Even after she’s been such a massive bitch to everyone we know.”Alex let out a sudden laugh. The sound was so sudden that Mia jumped a little. Then she found herself laughing too. When the laughter faded, Alex didn't look

  • Falling For My Boss   Chapter 137: The News That Changed Everything

    “Mother, what do you mean?” Colt’s voice came out sharp and edged with disbelief as he tightened his grip on the phone until his hand began to ache. “I saw Madison today,” he went on quickly, brow furrowed. “I was just in Grant’s office. She was completely fine. What could have happened to her in such a short time?”There was a long pause on the other end of the line, a heavy, suffocating silence. Colt could hear his mother’s ragged breathing. When she finally spoke again, her voice was calm. “She was found in an apartment,” she whispered. “She was with… Lauren’s sister.”Colt felt his chest tighten, and a chill crawled up his spine. “Corinne? What was she doing with Corinne?”“It seems there was a fight,” Julia continued, her voice shaking. “The police are saying there was a struggle. Madison shot Lauren’s sister, and then… I don’t know all the details yet, but it was a scene of horror, Colt. Madison was found in a pool of blood. She had fallen onto a glass table, and it shattered ben

  • Falling For My Boss   Chapter 136: The Next Flight

    Colt slowed his pace as he approached the check-in counter. His steps felt heavy, as if he were dragging his feet through wet sand. His chest was still tight, aching with the weight of everything he had felt since he left Mia’s apartment. He was only a few feet from the desk when he heard a voice behind him.“Colt.”He froze. He didn't move a muscle. He didn't even dare to breathe. For a split second, he was sure he was dreaming. Maybe his grief had finally broken his mind. He was terrified to turn around, because if she wasn't there, he knew he would never be able to stand again.Slowly, he turned.And there, only a few steps away from him, stood Lauren.He just stared at her. His eyes searched her face, looking for proof that she was really there, afraid that if he blinked, she would vanish like smoke.She looked real. Her blonde hair was slightly messy from the wind. Her eyes were soft, looking at him with an expression he couldn't quite name—a mix of sadness and something else, s

    “What?” Colt gasped.Lauren did not answer him right away. Her hands shook as she reached for her phone on the couch. She thrust the it toward him, her knuckles ghostly white.“I think it’s too late to act like you don’t know,” she whispered. Her voice wasn't loud. It was flat and empty. It was the

    Colt burst out of Madison’s house like it was on fire.He didn't just walk down the steps; he stumbled, his shoes skidding on the gravel. His chest was a tight knot of panic. His lungs scorched with every breath, and he leaned against the side of his car, his head hanging low, dragging air into his

    The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the bedroom floor. Lauren stood by the window, her arms wrapped tightly around her stomach.She was waiting for Colt. She had been waiting all day. He hadn’t even come to her room before he left that morning. “Maybe he was already tired of her,” she

That meeting was supposed to be his salvation. Instead, he’d walked right into a trap set by the man Laur
