Rosa’s POV

I knew his touch even when I was asleep. It was gentle, and sometimes, it was rough.

But I could always feel his touch and smell him.

And that morning, his famailiar hand was sliding over my arm and brushing down to my waist like it was trailing down a familiar path. I didn’t open my eyes immediately. Now when I wanted to revel in the warmth of his touch.

My lips curled into a satisfied smile before I opened my eyes.

“Good morning,” he murmured softly, his voice low that it felt lik

  • 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   190. The chase

    Alex's POV The moment I got to Baker Tech, I saw Charles’ car parked outside the building.He was there, just as Chelsea had said. And judging from the length of time he had stayed, I already suspected he had come to finalize the sale of his ownership of the company.I quickly texted Chelsea.Is he inside?A few minutes later, her reply came in.Yes. He’s in a meeting with the shareholders. It may take a couple of hours.I leaned back against the seat and exhaled slowly.I stayed there waiting. Minutes turned into an hour. Then another.At some point, Evelyn called.NThe moment I answered, her frustrated voice came through immediately.“Why did you leave the luncheon like that? People are asking questions. Are you okay?”I rubbed my forehead tiredly while keeping my eyes fixed on the company entrance.“I’m fine,” I muttered. “I’m onto something involving Rosa.”Immediately, her tone changed. “What do you mean? Have you seen her?”“I think Charles is finally leading me to her.”Silenc

  • In love with my boss   189. Where is Mr. Kane?

    Alex's POV The luncheon was supposed to be a celebration. Instead, it felt like another reminder of Rosa and all my fears.Kane Tech had organized the event to celebrate the new international partnerships we had secured after presenting the software design. The board was excited. The shareholders were excited. Even the media had been talking nonstop about how Kane Tech had survived the storm that nearly destroyed the company.But none of it mattered to me.Not when Rosa was still missing.That morning before leaving the house, I stopped by my father’s room.The curtains were half drawn, allowing faint sunlight to spill across the floor because he hated the lights and he didn't like complete darkness. He sat on the bed quietly with a cup of tea beside him, staring blankly at the ceiling like he had been doing for days now.The sight broke my heart. My father had once been the loudest man in any room. Now silence surrounded him constantly.I stayed by the doorway for a moment before

  • In love with my boss   188. Another Rosa

    Rosa's POV Ever since I saw Alex Kane on the television, I had not been able to stop thinking about him. His face stayed in my mind constantly like I was supposed to remember him and his name echoed inside my head like something my body recognized even when my memory refused to cooperate. Sometimes I caught myself repeating his name silently without even realizing it. Alex Kane. There was something about him, and it was driving me insane, because no matter how hard I tried, I still could not remember why. I wanted to turn on the TV and see if there would be something else about him. But Charles’ presence had started feeling suffocating. He was always around. He was always watching me. Always somewhere close enough to make me feel trapped, like he was trying to read my thoughts. The only time he truly gave me space was whenever he took his secret phone calls, and when he did, he always spoke in hushed tones or stepped far enough away that I could never hear what he was saying

  • In love with my boss   187. Tell me your dreams

    Rosa's POV A week after I started avoiding the coffee, I finally had a dream. Not an ordinary dream. It felt so real that when I woke up, I expected to wake up in the mansion I had been in my dream.In the dream, I had been standing inside a huge house that looked like a mansion. There were people around me. Faces I recognised and voices I knew.It had not felt like imagination. It had felt like a part of my memory.I sat upright immediately, trying to hold onto the details before they disappeared. My head throbbed lightly as I struggled to remember the faces I had seen.Someone had been smiling at me. Someone had called my name…And then the bedroom door opened. Charles walked in carrying the usual cup of coffee.The moment I saw it, my thoughts scattered because my mind started spinning with how to avoid the drink. Before I could even continue trying to remember the dream, Charles had already crossed the room and sat beside me, smiling softly while handing me the cup.By the time I

  • 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

    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
