I Was Hired To Seduce My Boss Chapter 124: Stranger in the Doorway
LiamThe woman standing in the doorway was not what I expected.She was thin, her body worn down to the bone, her grey hair pulled back in a hasty knot, strands escaping around her face. Her eyes were the same shade as Zoe's, that particular grey that reminded me of winter skies and cold water. She looked at Zoe like a woman who had been drowning and had finally seen the shore."I am sorry," Helena said again. Her voice was rough, scraped raw by years of disuse or grief or both. "I am so sorry."Zoe had not moved from the path. She stood with her back to me, her shoulders rigid, her hands clenched at her sides. I could see the tension in her spine, the way she was holding herself together by sheer force of will."You gave me up," Zoe said. Her voice was flat. I'm not angry. Not sad. Just flat. "You gave me away, and you never came back."Helena flinched. The movement was small, barely visible, but I saw it. I saw the way her hands trembled, the way she gripped the doorframe for suppor

LiamThe phone rang at midnight. I was not asleep. I had been sitting in the dark of the living room, staring at the wall, my mind turning over the same thoughts like stones in a river. When I saw Zoe's name on the screen, I answered before the second ring."Liam." Her voice was thin, stretched tight. "I need you to come. I am at a place called Rosewood Lane. Number fourteen."I did not ask questions. I simply pulled on my boots and grabbed the keys.The drive took an hour, the roads empty, the darkness pressing against the windshield. I found the house at the end of a narrow lane, its windows dark except for a single light in the front room. I parked and walked up the path, my footsteps loud in the silence.Zoe opened the door before I could knock. Her grey eyes were red-rimmed, her face pale, her hands trembling."Liam," she said. "I found something. Something I did not expect."She led me inside, past an old woman I did not recognize, into a small sitting room. A photograph lay on

ZoeThe letter arrived on a Tuesday, tucked between the electricity bill and a catalogue I had not ordered. It was addressed to me in handwriting I did not recognize the ink, a deep, deliberate black, the paper thick and expensive. I turned it over in my hands, searching for a return address, finding none.I opened it at the kitchen counter, my coffee going cold beside me.Zoe,My name is Margaret. I was your grandmother's closest friend. I have something that belongs to you. Something she asked me to keep safe until the time was right.I live at 14 Rosewood Lane. Come alone. Come soon. I am not well.MargaretI read the letter twice, my hands trembling. I had never heard of Margaret. My grandmother had never mentioned her. But the letter felt real, the paper, the handwriting, the sense of urgency that seemed to press through the ink.I folded the letter and tucked it into my pocket.The drive to Rosewood Lane took an hour, the roads winding through the countryside I had never seen.

I Was Hired To Seduce My Boss Chapter 121: Unfinished Letter
Liam The box sat on the workbench, its lid slightly ajar, a sliver of shadow peeking out from beneath the wood. I had found it in the back of the shed, tucked behind a stack of old paint cans, covered in a layer of dust that had settled over years. I hadn't opened it yet. I was not sure I wanted to. I pulled the lid back and peered inside. A stack of papers, yellowed with age, tied with a frayed ribbon. I lifted the bundle and set it on the bench, the ribbon falling away as I untied the knot. The first letter was addressed to me. Liam, I am writing this in the early morning, before the sun has risen. The house is quiet. The world is quiet. It is the only time I can think clearly. I want to tell you something I should have told you years ago. Something I did not have the courage to say. I was afraid of you. Not of who you were, but of who I might become if I let myself love you the way I wanted to. I read the words twice, the weight of them settling into my chest. The handwriti
I Was Hired To Seduce My Boss Chapter 120: House at the End of the Street
ZoeThe train pulled into the station with a hiss of brakes and the screech of metal against metal. I stood on the platform, my hands shoved into the pockets of my coat, and I watched the doors slide open. Passengers spilt out, a river of faces I did not recognize, each one carrying their own story, their own destination.I had not told Liam I was coming. I had not told anyone. I simply bought the ticket, packed a small bag, and boarded the train before I could talk myself out of it.The address was written on a scrap of paper, and the ink smudged from the rain. I had found it tucked inside the journal, a slip of paper I had missed the first time. A name. An address. A piece of the puzzle I had not known was missing.I stepped onto the platform and walked toward the exit, my footsteps echoing against the concrete. The station was old, the walls stained with years of grime, the lights flickering overhead. I had never been here before, but the address felt familiar, as if I had been car
I Was Hired To Seduce My Boss Chapter 119: Hand That Steadies
LiamThe wood groaned as I leaned into the plane, the blade shaving a thin curl of oak from the beam. Sawdust clung to my shirt, my arms, the back of my neck, and I welcomed the grit—the honest weight of work that left no room for thought.Marcus had called it a waste of time. "You could buy a new beam for less than the cost of your afternoon," he had said. But that was not the point. The beam had been here for sixty years and had held up the roof of the old mill through storms and neglect. It deserved to be saved.The shed door swung open, and I looked up, my hands still gripping the plane.Zoe stood in the doorway, her silhouette dark against the afternoon light. She had a letter in her hand, the paper creased, the edges soft from handling."Liam," she said. "I need to show you something."I set down the plane and wiped my hands on my trousers, the sawdust falling away like tiny scraps of time. She crossed to me and held out the letter."I found it in the box," she said. "The one fr
