My Bossy Secretary

(Finn’s POV)The president of Absolute Glam stopped at one table and talked to an important guest. Her lips curved a sweet smile at the country’s ambassador, and she nodded, probably acknowledging something he had said. For two years of running the company, she had truly made the shareholders happy with her performance, and with her lineup of perfumes and cosmetics innovations, the sales rose, something my father would have loved to see.I heaved a sigh, watching my brother walk toward her, giving her a quick kiss on her cheek, and despite being married, twice, she still blushed with just a peck.Where on earth would I find another woman like her? Not only was she an epitome of true beauty, but she has also become a symbol of the company and the genius behind Mars Group of Companies.“Don’t stare too much, Finn. People might think you’re jealous,” Frank teased me. “Who wouldn’t? Too bad I couldn’t add her to my collection.” I chuckled. I took the wine glass from the table without br

(Lexi’s POV)Luna made me more anxious as she followed me while I paced worriedly in the living room. I glanced at the time, wanting to scream at my twin sister. She promised me she would hurry back as soon as she got money from Aunt Becky, our mother’s sister and the only living relative we knew.We were in our last year of high school when our father, an underground mining operator, died in an accident at work. Some of my father’s coworkers and friends encouraged our mother to sue the company, but she did not push through with it because, first off, she was pregnant, and second, she was in her ninth month of pregnancy. Instead, Mom accepted the little amount she got from the company and used it to start again.Lexa was horrified by her decision, but she explained that she was only being practical, not wanting us to starve and not to stop studying. But Dad seemed sad in heaven without our mother, and just three months after his death, Mom died of hypothermia when a strong typhoon hit

(Lexi’s POV)I imagined a small eating place, but when we arrived, it was a fine dining restaurant, and I immediately recognized the two Michelin stars. I almost couldn’t enter the door because if it was one of Frank’s pranks, I have no money to pay for his lavish choice.It was not a date, but he led me to the far corner of the dining area, and the waiter came in a hurry to get our order as soon as we sat.“The usual, Ivan,” he said, smiling at him.He nodded and left us.I didn’t see the ‘usual’ menu, not even the menu card. If only I had known this was his plan, I should have just lied about having food allergies, like eating any kind of food gave me allergies.“This is not a date, right?” My eyes were wide as I looked at Frank, sitting across from me.He shook his head. “If this is a date, I will not bring you here and let my brother torture me twenty-four hours.”I made a quick look at the restaurant and leaned my head forward. “You own this restaurant?”He shook his head. “My br

(Finn’s POV)Lexa! Lexi!I should have known it from a person who was born with a twin. I was too mad at Lexa and stupid to realize they were two different people. Just like my nieces, it wasn’t easy to see the difference at first glance. Besides, when I met Lexa, it was not well lit on the rooftop, but somehow, I was caught with a need and her charm, binding me in her spell that I believed in her magic.Last night, I spent many hours deciding if I should call Lexa, but every time I asked myself for a good reason why I would do it, I could not think of a valid reason for doing so. I let Lexi use my cellphone yesterday, not because I wanted to catch her if she were lying to me, but I did it because if she weren’t that person I was hoping to see again, I would be able to get her number.I squinted as I stared at the hot woman singing on the bar’s small stage. She was singing beautifully that I never imagined I would get enchanted by a woman like this. If I knew she was so desperate to g

(Lexi’s POV)It was as if I would be sent to a lion’s den.I took a deep breath before entering the elevator to Sky Mars’ office to see Catherine or Frank, then report to Finn Mars. After my twin sister's news last night, I had to convince myself many times that everything would be fine.Lexa must be crazy, announcing to me last night that she and Finn were an official couple but must be kept secret in public. When I asked her for a reason, she told me it was her who begged him, and as she explained, I understood and agreed with her.“Lexi, Finn’s your boss, and he’s a billionaire,” she emphasized as we talked in the empty hallway before I went home.“Are we thinking the same way?” I asked her, wanting to know if she was having doubts about Finn’s feelings for her.One corner of her mouth lifted, and she scoffed at me. “Why would a billionaire whom we have just met fall for me? We started on the wrong foot, Lexi, and because of that, he almost sent you to prison.”“I know,” I said, lo
