Rosa’s POV

I stared at my phone until it fell off my grip.

This was the kind of PR that could be damaging, and somehow, I was in the centre of it.

I thought of Alex’s reaction. How was he going to handle it? Was he going to barge on the door, yelling at me? Would this be the end of my stay in this place?

I knew how much Alex loved his father from the few days I have stayed here. And I knew how wild the public would be. That was why he never wanted his father’s health status to be out.

And now, it was on every news outlet like an alarm no one could silence.

Maybe it was time I discussed sharing an apartment with Patra. Leaving on my own will would be more dignifying than Alex kicking me out. It would break my stupid heart that was already falling for him.

“Did you see it?” I heard Patra’s voice the moment the line connected.

“Alex is going to kick me out,” I said instead. “He warned me.”

I felt bad for Old man Kane. Gossip blogs were tagging him all sorts of cruel names. They cal

  • In love with my boss   Two could play the game

    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 forgive. The moment I stepped back into my office, I retrieved the document from the desk. There was only one place I could go right now. The lab smelled like antiseptic when I stepped in. I hated the smell of antiseptic but I ignored the tangy taste it left on my tongue because I was determined to find out the truth. While I sat in the corridor, the technician handled the contract, fingers gloved, lifting the pages of the documents like they were evidence in a murdere trial.Because they were. Whoever did it wanted my company dead. “Multiple fingerprints,” the technician said eventually, adjusting his glasses. I had heard that before. “There are a few clear enough to isolate.”That was

  • In love with my boss   Hit the pause on drama

    Rosa’s POVAlex kept assuring me that everything would be alright. But I had seen scenes like this in many movies to know that I should be scared. I didn’t need to be an executive to know that being summoned by the board was a serious matter. And they were holding an election of ‘no confidence’ against Alex.The sun barely pierced the city skyline before I woke up. My heart was racing. I didn’t even care if I lost the job. I was worried that I had dragged Alex Kane with me. I barely concentrated when Old man Kane gave his usual ‘tea’ over tea. All I could think of was how to exonerate Alex. I knew the meeting had to do with the Valis contract. Even Alex was yet to say anything about it to the company but I was sure they had heard about how I flopped it.They must have designed a six-feet cake just to bury me in it. Alex insisted on driving in the same car to work. Of all days!I disagreed and told him I was fine handling my steering wheels. After much back and forth, we settled on h

  • In love with my boss   A storm in corporate suit

    Rosa’s POVI couldn’t sleep that night. Alex’s words kept circling around my head like vultures. There was an insider in Kane Tech. That insider had walked into Alex’s office, wiped the prints on the documents, and he had walked into my room too.The thought made me shudder.All along, I thought it was Charles. But Alex said it himself: he had been with Charles all through. And now, every time I closed my eyes to sleep, I saw Alex’s face. I knew it was eating him so badly that he was losing control of his company. The media didn’t help matters. Everything he did, didn’t seem to be perfect in their eyes —at least, not as perfect as Old man Kane had handled it. Whoever was doing this knew exactly where to hit him because he had gotten Alex’s attention. And then, there was William Bush, another contender. I had looked him up after Alex casually mentioned his name and William Bush was more than a wealthy man, he was the son of the city. Men like him did not wage petty wars and steal s

  • 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 had control over something.The moment my door opened and Rosa stepped in, all rational thoughts evaporated. It was that evening, once again, when she had stepped into the office where I sat, lost, drunk, and out of control. And she had given me something to control that night after I had learnt that my father had progressive dementia and a few years left.She shut the door softly behind her and watched me keenly. I hadn’t told her about the meeting at Baker Tech or the little gamble I played with William Bush. I wanted to talk. But the moment my name slipped from her mouth, everything changed. I crossed the room in three strides.Her gasp barely had time to exist before my hands were on her,

  • In love with my boss   Invisible

    Patra’s POVMy heart beats so hard that it hurts. I almost got caught. Never did I imagine that Alex Kane would barge into the conference room when I was presenting.I was standing barely five feet from him and for one terrifying second, I thought he would look at me. But his attention had been fully focused on Mr. Bush and Charly, like by some miracle, gravity was pulling his eyes away from my direction. I was invisible again. Lucky me. I kept my head slightly bowed while the brawl continued. And now, Alex was asking for a fingerprint test. I knew what that meant. Not only Charly would be implicated, I would be too even though Charly had handled the document and doctored it. All I did was give Charles the key to my apartment and tell him about the document sitting in Rosa’s bag, including a copy of her software codes. That was enough to get me into big troubleI was hurrying out of the building when my phone vibrated. It was a message from Charles:We’re heading towards Kane Tech

  • In love with my boss   Perfect recipe for disaster

    Rosa’s POVI was nervous. Alex wanted a date. A fucking private date…in public!As much as it made me excited that he wanted to commit to me alone, I was scared of the public's judgement. A boss-employee relationship?That was the perfect recipe for disaster.Especially when it looked like she was an underqualified staff getting high end jobs. Nepotism would be a kinder way the public would call it. But Alex Kane was damning the consequences as though his entire world had narrowed to me alone. But amidst the storm, I was looking forward to having a date with him. The last time I had been on a date was when I was still friends with Charly, when I held a secret crush for him, and would do anything to be in his space. But the moment he suggested we got married, our lives became more private than a billionaire’s offshore account. Chales never took me out to the public. He was always giving the excuses, and even when I set private dining experience in the house, he was always tired. Thi
