Rosa’s POV

Milo stepped closer. He looked bigger than the last time I had seen him. He now had a beard which made him look older…and rougher. His hands were buried deep in his pockets and my heart jumped when I noticed. I thought he was holding a gun.

I had seen him handle a gun before and he had pointed it at me. I tried to push the memory away as he stood just a few breaths from where I stood. The smell of cigarette smoke and alcohol glued to him an unpleasant smell that made me want to retch

  • In love with my boss   199. Isolated

    Alex's POV “What do you know?”I stared at my father from across the car, my mind still struggling to catch up with everything he had just said.Christopher Kane leaned back against the leather seat calmly, looking completely in control of the situation “Recently, I discovered that a package had been directed into Baker Tech’s account under Charles Baker’s final requests before selling Baker Tech,” he started. “Whatever the package was, it had consumed an absurd amount of money and company resources…enough to catch my attention immediately.”He continued, “That was when I discovered it was a phone,” he said smoothly.I frowned immediately.“Baker Tech doesn’t even produce phones.”“Exactly.”His eyes rested on me carefully.“That was what made me interested in whatever Charles Baker was planning.”At that point, my patience was already thinning. “Okay,” I said sharply. “How does this answer my question? Do you know where Rosa is or not?”My father looked at me for a few seconds befo

  • In love with my boss   198. The confrontation

    Alex's POV “How did you do it?”My voice came out rough and impatient as I strode toward my father’s car the moment the luncheon finally ended.Evening shadows stretched across the parking lot outside Kane Tech, but Christopher Kane looked untouched by exhaustion. The reporters had nearly worshipped him after that performance inside, and now he stood beside the open car door like a man who had just conquered a nation instead of walking out of a press conference.The chauffeur held the door open silently, waiting for him to slide in.My father did not look at me immediately. He merely rested one hand on the roof of the car and kept his gaze ahead, as though he had expected me to come running after him.“You underestimated me,” he said calmly.The words irritated me instantly.His voice carried that same cold confidence I had grown up hearing all my life. The voice that had ruled boardrooms, ruined competitors, turned powerful men into nervous wrecks, and told me I wasn't good enough.

  • In love with my boss   197. Fixing us

    Rosa's POV I desperately wanted tonight to fix everything.The moment I told Anne that I wanted to prepare a surprise dinner date for Charles, she immediately became excited and started helping me plan everything.Together, we moved around the house gathering anything that could make the room feel warm and romantic. We found scented candles hidden in one of the cabinets, soft rose petals, fancy wine glasses, silk sheets, and decorative lights that Anne insisted would make the bedroom look beautiful.For the first time in days, I actually felt hopeful.Even while helping me arrange the room, Anne kept smiling and teasing me softly about how Mr. Baker was going to lose his mind when he saw everything.I laughed along with her, but deep down, my body still refused to relax whenever I thought about Charles.That frightened me.Because mentally, I had already convinced myself that I had been wrong about him.The internet had confirmed everything. That Charles was my husband. And Alex Kane

  • 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   She was there

    Alex’s POVThe cameras were set when I stepped behind the curtain. It was just two minutes before the press conference. Two minutes before I either steady the company and survive the media attacks or let everything my father had built for years crumble in my hands. I was supposed to feel ready. I

    Rosa’s POVI didn’t mean to remain curled on the couch after Alex walked out but my body felt too heavy to move. The weight of the day settled like a heavy rock in my chest.
