Patra’s POV

We raised our glasses, the crystals clinking softly as laughter followed from my mouth. “I still can’t believe it,” I said. “Kane Tech is falling.”

Charles dropped his glass cup on the table. “This is only the beginning," he said. “By the time I’m done with Alex Kane, no one in this city will remember the Kanes ever existed.”

Saying that made Charles look so irresistible. I stood up and crossed to the side slowly as he trained his eyes on me. This was the perfect time to win Charly’

  • In love with my boss   153. Playing tricks

    Alex's POV I was looking forward to tonight.Three days away from Rosa had felt like three years. The moment the plane touched down, I texted her and waited for a reply. But none came.Knowing her, she would be planning something dramatic for my return.But all I wanted tonight was her.I stopped on the way to get her favorite flowers and chocolates before stepping into the car. As we drove off, I kept glancing at my phone, waiting for her reply..I smiled to myself. She was probably too busy setting up whatever surprise she had in mind that she hadn't seen my text message.Well, I couldn't wait to surprise her with my arrival too.When the car finally pulled into the compound, someone stepped out of the house.It was Evelyn and not Rosa.She rushed toward the car before I even stepped out. But her face wasn't excited. She looked worried. “It’s Rosa,” she said quickly as I stepped out of the car. “Something’s wrong.”My chest tightened instantly. Only Rosa had that kind of effect on

  • In love with my boss   152. No happy ending

    Rosa's POV I shut the door and somehow found my way to the bed. I was no longer looking forward to Alex’s return. Not with the truth spilling out before I could tell him myself.I reached for my phone. The moment I got online, everything hit me at once.I was trending.Every platform talked about me and every headline carried my namePatra had taken the 1.5 million, and still went live. She called me a spy for Baker Tech. She exposed my past with Charles. And she showed proof I did not even know existed. Then, she called me a con artist.My heart pounded so hard I could barely hear anything else as I stared at the screen. It felt like a nightmare —the kind you would wish was a nightmare and you'd wake up from. But there was no waking up from this.Nightmares didn't feel this way.My stomach twisted and it suddenly felt horrible to be me. I hated my own skin…because somehow, I thought Patra was right to call me a con artist. Who wouldn't after hearing the story she had narrated about

  • In love with my boss   151. A turning point

    Rosa's POV I heard clapping.“You know why I was drawn to you, Rosa,” Charles said. “Because you’re smart. Very smart. Now tell me, what do you want?”I steadied my voice, even though my heart was racing. This was the moment I took control back. Once I was done with him, I could finally breathe. I could finally feel like I deserved the life I had now.“You always wanted me to be a secret,” I said. “It didn’t matter how much I did for you. The designs, the effort to look perfect —everything. But I was never good enough for you. You kept me in the background.” I paused. “That’s exactly where I want to stay now.”I stopped to catch my breath.“I want nothing to do with you, Charles,” I continued, my voice tighter. “No one should ever know we had a past. We were never even married. And this baby is not yours. Stay away from me, and I’ll do the same.”I tightened my grip on the phone.“As for Taylor, she’s gone. I’ve fired her. And I’ll find every other person you planted in my company. I

  • In love with my boss   150. No more lies, Charles

    Rosa's POV The next two days passed in a blur. I was not myself. Because the betrayal still lingered, sharp and unbearable in my chest.I woke up the morning after discovering who Patra truly was, feeling sick and unable to get out of bed. At some point, I drifted back to sleep. When I woke up again, it was midday, and my phone was ringing. I peeked at my phone on the nightstand and saw it was a call from Alex.He was calling to remind me to eat.If only he knew I had not even had breakfast.I forced myself to eat something small, but the disgust I felt toward myself made everything difficult to swallow. I could not even bring myself to shower until evening, when I could no longer stand the way I felt in my own skin.The rest of the day passed with me lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, the pristine walls, and the chandelier. I kept asking myself the same question.Was I even worthy of any of this?Sleep eventually claimed me again until a knock on my door woke me sometime in the e

  • In love with my boss   149. A princess in a bubble

    Taylor's POV I didn’t even realize she had called me by my real name until I saw the smirk on her face.“Wh—?”“You can stop the act, Taylor,” she said. “I know who you are.”Oh, blessed perfect.So I could finally drop the act? I had been waiting for this moment for years.I let out a scoff. “You must be really slow, Rosa. What did it take? Fucking six years? Seven? Before you figured it out?”“You snake!”I raised a hand. “On please. Save the insults.”I didn’t even care how she found out. “It was you all along…”I spread my arms with a smile. “Surprise... I’m Taylor Casatelli.”She looked like she had seen a ghost. She stepped back and sank into the chair, her face pale. Good, let it sink in.“Rosa,” I continued, “you are the biggest fool I’ve ever met. Do you really think knowing my name makes you smart? You have no effing idea.”She shook her head. “No… Taylor. I know more than your name. I know you’re working for Charles Baker, spying for him.”I laughed.“You’re not any bette

  • In love with my boss   148. Fool of the year

    Rosa's POV I couldn’t breathe.Everything crashed into place at once. The shock was sharp and electrifying, and the betrayal cut deep into my heart. Patra was Taylor Casatelli all along. All this time.Memory followed memory as I sat down there, staring at the blurred photo. I remembered the day she told me Charles was cheating, the quiet way she had said it, like she had been so certain. All along, it had been her.It had been fucking her.My hands trembled as I held the phone. It took everything in me not to drop it. I had suspected she was hiding something, but never this. Never something this terrible.My vision blurred with tears. I lifted my head and stared at the street leading to her house and my chest ached.I had trusted her.All this time, she had been working for Charles. Sleeping with him long before he ever came near me. Our meeting had probably been arranged. Nancy, Charles, and her…they had all fooled me.For a moment, I almost told the driver to turn back. I wanted

    Rosa’s POVI grabbed my robe and pulled it tightly around me as I slid off the bed. “I need to answer this,” I said. Alex hesitated, his hands lingering in the air before he finally stepped back. I couldn’t take the call with him there—not when I had no idea what the caller was about to say. I clu
