Alex’s POV

My hands tightened around the steering wheel as I drove, my eyes fixed on the road even though my mind was nowhere near it.

Every second felt wasted.

I was supposed to be looking for Rosa. That was the only thing that should matter. But instead, I was driving in the opposite direction, chasing another problem that could not wait.

As I turned into the next street, my gaze caught something for a brief moment. A familiar figure stepping out of a bar.

Charles Baker.

  • In love with my boss   196. Checkmate, Baker

    Alex's POV Christopher Kane walked into the hall like a storm that had finally decided to show itself. The entire room fell silent immediately. I stood near the podium watching my father move through the crowd with the same commanding presence I had grown up fearing. His expression was hard, sharp, and unforgiving. The deep frown on his face made him look exactly like the man I remembered before the dementia. The man I had vowed to stay away from.I had once wished for this.I had actually wished for my father to return to being the cruel, ruthless man he used to be because I thought that version of him was better than the fragile man staring blankly at ceilings.Now that he was standing here again, fully himself, I realized how much I had hated him.The atmosphere in the hall shifted completely the moment he stepped onto the stage. The luncheon was no longer mine. It belonged to Christopher Kane now.And part of me almost felt relieved. If my father was truly back, then he would ta

  • In love with my boss   195. Truth and lies

    Rosa's POV The search result loaded slowly, and for a moment I sat there holding my breath so tightly that my chest hurt. I wanted so badly to see the results. Then the screen finally filled with results. My fingers tightened around Anne’s phone as I stared at the face on the screen. Alex Kane. The same man I had seen on television. The same man who had looked familiar in a way I could not explain. I leaned closer, my heartbeat uneven as I began scrolling through article after article. Most of them talked about him being the CEO of Kane Tech, one of the biggest tech companies in Manhattan, New York. There were photographs of him leaving buildings, attending conferences, standing in front of cameras with that same sharp expression I had seen on television…that expression that seemed to tug at my memory. But none of that was what caught my attention. It was the headlines beneath them. Alex Kane searching for missing wife. Businesswoman Rosa Kane missing after accident Rosa F

  • In love with my boss   194. Who is Alex Kane?

    .Rosa's POV Dinner that evening felt like we were mourning. The silence sitting at the table with us was heavier than the food itself.Charles barely looked at me throughout the meal. He answered the questions I asked absentmindedly, checked his phone repeatedly, and seemed distracted by something far away from the dining room.It hurt more than I wanted to admit. Because despite all my suspicions, and despite everything that felt wrong about him lately, a part of me had grown used to his attention.He used to hover around me constantly, kiss me a lot, and show concern if I was not eating. Now it suddenly felt like he could barely tolerate sitting across from me. And that I was a burden.Halfway through dinner, Charles suddenly turned toward Anne, who was standing somewhere in the corner like she wanted to disappear.“You should join us,” he said casually.I looked up immediately, surprised. Anne looked equally startled.Charles glanced toward me before speaking again. “Anne is pract

  • In love with my boss   193. An unwelcomed guest at luncheon

    Alex's POV I was done protecting Christopher Kane.Completely done.After the conversation I had with my father the previous night, part of me actually wanted the world to know the truth. Let them know Christopher Kane was sick.Let them know the mighty chairman of Kane Tech was slowly losing his mind. Because maybe then he would finally understand what I had been trying to tell him all along.The public was ruthless and the media was ever ready to feast on us. The moment they sensed weakness, they attacked like vultures.And despite everything happening around us, despite Rosa being missing, despite the pressure crushing me from every direction, my father still cared more about appearances than anything else.That night after leaving his room, I could not even stay in the house. I drove straight to a bar. I drank far more than I should have. The last time I was in such a state was the day I returned to Manhattan and couldn't face my father so I stayed in the office and got drunk.Th

  • In love with my boss   192. A girl named Anne

    Rosa's POV Breakfast had become the most awkward part of my day. Not because of the food. Charles made sure the dining table looked like something from a luxury lifestyle magazine. Like we were in a set for the perfect family.There was always fresh juice, warm pancakes, coffee, and fruits, and enough food to feed a small village. Charles always took his time to make a sumptuous breakfast.But none of it mattered when your mind felt like a battlefield.I sat quietly at the table, forcing myself to eat while my thoughts spun endlessly around everything happening in my life.Alex Kane.That name kept ringing in my head like it was something I was not supposed to discard. Charles had said he was my ex, and the Rosa he was looking for was a different Rosa. But my mind refused to settle.I stabbed my fork into a pancake and tried convincing myself I still had control over something.Then the doorbell rang.My brows furrowed immediately. For the past two weeks, nobody visited the house exc

  • In love with my boss   191. Dementia or not

    Alex's POV My father sat upright slowly, adjusting the blanket over his legs like a man who had merely woken from a nap instead of months of dementia.I stared at him, stunned.Not because he sat up. But because he looked fine. His eyes were sharp and focused in the way I remembered it. There was no confusion swimming in them. No emptiness.Just my father in full terrifying clarity.For a moment, I thought I had finally lost my mind or I was dreaming.My throat tightened. "What the hell is going on?"He sighed heavily and leaned back against the pillows. "It started with the headaches," he said. His gaze was less intense but it still carried disappointment it always did. "Months ago. They became frequent, so I went for a medical checkup.My entire body had gone rigid. I knew that my father was about to confess to something bad."The doctors noticed some mild memory issues caused by stress and exhaustion. Age catches up eventually, Alexander.” He chuckled despite the growing tension i

  • In love with my boss   Into the lion's den

    Rosa’s POVThe first thing I felt when Charles stepped into my office was shock. Then, fear registered. He was not supposed to be here. No one here knew that we had been together and I was pissed that he was now walking into my office. I moved fast. Closing the door wasn’t enough, so I locked it.

  • In love with my boss   No one likes to see the men in blue

    Charles’ POVI woke up feeling proud of myself. Now, there was no proof that I had tampered with the Valis document. And the icing on the cake? Bush and Alex were at loggerheads. I didn't care why they couldn’t stand each other, all I needed was for William Bush to continuously be by my side…until

    Alex’s POVWhen I stepped out of the boardroom, I knew I was going to prove to the company that Rosa had been the best candidate to handle the Valis project. Whoever had tampered with the documents hadn’t just tried to steal it, they had tried to make me look like a fool. And that part, I wouldn’t

  • In love with my boss   Losing control

    Alex’s POVI wasn’t calling her to touch her. That was the lie I told myself as I stood by my desk, sleeves rolled up, and tie loosened. The city hummed below but it wasn’t enough to silence the storm in my head. Everything was strangely slipping out of control and I needed to feel like I still ha
