Lily's POV

My heart is racing. He dragged me out of the convenience store and I'm thankful that it's almost 1 AM. The people are sleeping.

"Let me go, Rogue!" I tried to pull my arm but he's too strong. My wrist is aching.

"I said let go! What the hell is your problem?"

He angrily let me go and faced me. "You! You are my problem, woman! You attention seeker wench!"

I gaped at him. I felt tears pooling in the corner of my eyes. I was never thirsty for attention.

I gritted my teeth and fought the urge to cry in front of him. I glared at him. "How dare you accuse me, Rogue? I was hungry so I went out to eat! What the hell is your problem with me? Showing up out of nowhere and calling me attention seeker? How dare you?!"

"How dare you!" He spat back and pointed at me. "How dare you ruin everything I have, woman? Don't you know? Mom woke me up in the middle of my fcking sleep saying you're not answering her calls and you're missing? How dare you include me in your terrible act? You just want attention, right? You want everyone's attention? You want my family's sympathy!"

"I never wanted your family's attention!"

He laughed sarcastically. "Is that how you got to convince my grandfather to make me marry you? Acting so innocent and all? Fck you and your dramas!"

"Don't you dare curse at me, Rogue!"

"Oh, I will curse at you whenever and however I want! You ruined my life!"

My lips trembled. "I did that for your grandfather!"

"Don't make me laugh, Lily! You did that for yourself. You manipulated my grandfather. You manipulated my family. You manipulated everyone to get their sympathy."

"I didn't!" I said with trembling lips. I hate him! I hate him for accusing me like that.

"You did! That's why my grandfather forced me to marry you. You ruined my life, Lily! You ruined my plans!" He shouted at my face and grabbed my arm to pull me closer to him.

"You'll regret forcing me, Lily. I'll make your life a living hell."

I balled my fists. I gave up. He's just too close minded. "Think whatever you want to think. I don't care."

I was about to leave when he grabbed my arm painfully.

"I'm not done with you, woman!"

"Well, I'm done, Rogue. And I'm leaving!"

I marched back to the tower and I felt him following me. When we rode the elevator, he pushed me against the wall and grabbed my jaws, making me face him.

I pressed my lips together, restraining my tears as I fought the flame in his eyes.

"I thought we're good, Lily? I thought you're content that I married you and you're using my family's wealth. I thought you're fine with my name and money but you are just so fcking selfish and thirsty for attention. You fcking gold digger deserves to be punished."

Anger gave me courage to push him away from me. Tears completely rolled down my cheeks because of his sharp words.

"How dare you, Rogue? My family may not be as rich as yours but I'm not a gold digger. I never wanted to use your money. I'm working to feed myself!"

"Yeah! You're working for my company." He growled. His neck was red and he's breathing ruggedly.

"Then I'll quit!" I said in frustration.

He chuckled without humor and shook his head. "You think I'll let you? Not now that I thought of a way to punish you. I'll make you suffer, Lily. You can't escape this devil. You woke this monster up anyway."

I dropped my body on the bed as tears rolled down my cheeks. I hugged my pillow and sobbed.

Grandpa… You didn't tell me your grandson is a devil.

I fell asleep after that with tears in my cheeks. When I woke up, it's already 7 AM. I rushed to the bathroom and took a bath.

I don't have a choice but to use my motorcycle to work or I'll be very very late. My superior will scold me if I reach the office at 8:01, so I rode my motorcycle.

Wearing jeans, boots and blouse, I wore my helmet and drove to the company. It's traffic so it's an advantage that I'm using my motorcycle.

"Miss Lily?"

The guard was shocked after he saw me riding my motorcycle.

I looked at him awkwardly. He's roaming around the parking lot. So he saw me when I parked.

I ran to the elevator after that and I almost lost my balance when I hit a hard body inside the elevator.

"Ahh!" I screamed and waited for my fall but a strong arm wrapped around my body, making me freeze.

My lips parted and my eyes widened after I met Rogue's sharp eyes watching my face.

I started panicking. Memories of how he angrily dragged me out of the convenience store last night flashed back in my memories.

Instead of the unusual and strange emotions, anger overpowered me.

His secretary is behind him, looking at me wide-eyed.

I immediately pulled myself up and stood beside him. No one's speaking but I could feel Rogue's glares. His jaws are constantly clenching and obviously, he doesn't like what happened.

I glanced at Rogue's secretary. She's glaring at me, signaling me to leave.

Oh right! Rogue doesn't share the elevator except with his secretary.

I bowed and quickly stepped out of the elevator. I clenched my jaws and cursed inside my head. It's already 7:58 AM. I'll be late and I'll get scolded later. Damn!

"Sorry about that, sir. She's a newbie in the production department."

I looked at Rogue's secretary. She's still glaring at me but I don't care. I ignored her.

The elevator slid close and I saw Rogue's sharp eyes still on mine. My lips parted when the corner of his lips suddenly rose and curved into a devilish smirk. I want to grab him out of the lift and punch him. I can still remember how he insulted me last night. He called me wench. He called me attention seeker.

I swallowed hard. I could hear my heart racing inside my chest. This heart doesn't really learn, huh? It's still beating for Rogue.

  • My Secret Husband Is a CEO   Chapter 26- Darkness

    Lily's POVI did not bother opening the lights when I entered my condo unit like a walking dead. My eyes were puffy. My lips were sealed. My messy hair was down as I hugged the picture of my mother.The depressing darkness enveloped the whole unit and my heart. The sudden death of my mother was still hard to accept. Her last memory in my head was the time she talked to me about divorcing Rogue. I didn't even talk to her about the things she wants to do and she misses to do. I was too confident that she'd make it since her doctors are the best in their field.I should've talked to her often. I should've told her stories about my life. I should've hugged her when she can still hug me back. I should've held her hand when she can still hold mine.“M-Mom…” Tears rolled down my cheeks again as I sat behind the couch and rested my back on it.The pain of losing loved ones is so unbearable. My heart felt like breaking into a million tiny pieces and I couldn't find a way to put it back togethe

  • My Secret Husband Is a CEO   Chapter 25- Loss

    Lily’s POV“What’s wrong with you?” I asked angrily after I pushed Rogue against the wall. I dragged him to the warehouse where no one would see us or listen to us. I don’t know what his deal is but I really hate it when he interferes with my life. He just won’t stop manipulating me, huh?He clenched his jaws and stared at me darkly, “I should be the one asking you that, Lily. What’s wrong with you? Why are you talking to that man?”I shook my head in disbelief, “Not because you’re my husband doesn’t mean you can completely control me. I am not your possession, Rogue. I will talk to anyone I want to talk to and you have no say in that.”His eyes sharpened even more, “Why do you even want to talk to him, huh? Are you interested in him?”“Can you hear yourself?” I asked angrily. “You unjustly fired the person and now you’re thinking ill of our friendship? Josh, I don’t have the time to be interested i

  • My Secret Husband Is a CEO   Chapter 24: Possessive

    Lily’s POV“Carry the table inside.”I gritted my teeth and pressed my palm against the table. I turned to Rogue and shot him sharp gazes. He looked at me with furrowed eyebrows when I stopped the two male employees he called to transfer the table inside his office.“What? You want a new table?”I hissed, “I want my previous position, Rogue! I don’t want to be your secretary!”I could feel the employees around watching us. They seemed curious, shocked and scared especially when Rogue’s expression darkened.He clenched his jaws, “I fired my secretary, Lily!”“It’s your problem! I want my previous position not this.”He took a deep breath as if he’s restraining his anger. I was glaring at him while he’s looking at me with a cold expression on his face. His lips were in a thin line and I can feel the tension that’s making the employees around us stiff.If he really wants us to get along, he should know that manipulating me would only intensify the cold war between us.He clenched his jaw

  • My Secret Husband Is a CEO   Chapter 23- The Bomb Has Exploded

    Lily’s POV I was drinking coffee while massaging my aching head when someone entered my kitchen. Obviously, it’s Rogue. I should really change my passcode so he won’t be able to come here whenever he pleases. “Let’s go to work together.”I didn’t react to what he said. I continued sipping on my coffee while staring at the island counter. Right! I have to work today and surely, everyone in the company heard about what happened at the party. “Lily, I said let’s go to work together.”I lazily lifted my arm. “No need to repeat. I heard it the first time. It’s just that…I’m not interested.”He clenched his jaws as he stared into my eyes. “I’ll appoint you as my secretary.”That’s when I lifted my face and looked at him. “What did you say?”“I think you heard me the first time, Lily.”I gritted my teeth and glared at him. “I will resign if you do that!”He tilted his head and took his phone out. He called someone and said… “Hello? You’re fired.”My eyes widened. “Who’s that?”He smirked.

  • My Secret Husband Is a CEO   Chapter 22- Confession

    Lily’s POVI angrily sat on the stool of the bar and ordered a drink. The female bartender smiled after pushing the glass of drink in front of me., “Men problems?”I scoffed, “A devil problem, I’d say.”She chuckled, “I hope he’s better than the British devil in Armani Lucifer Morningstar or the expensive drink won’t be worth it.”I sighed and my forehead creased when I saw Rogue entering the club. Oh shit! Did he just follow me after I walked out of the party? I still can’t believe what he did, alright? He introduced me to everyone as his fiancee. A fiancee? Really? Not that I want him to introduce me as his wife. It’s just that his confession will surely change my life—oh especially in the office.“Speak of the devil,” I whispered as I stared at the man who immediately spotted me among the crowd.The female bartender chuckled which made me look at her. She shrugged her shoulders and grinned, “Hotter. The drink is on the house, babe.”My forehead creased as she turned her back and le

  • My Secret Husband Is a CEO   Chapter 21- Fiancee

    Lilys’ POV The slit of the dress that Rogue sent was too high. It’s almost showing my groin. I rolled my eyes and shook my head realizing I don’t have another dress to wear so I have to put up with this. Sighing, I put some light makeup on and curled my hair. I grabbed my pouch and looked at the door when I heard it open and closed. I’m inside my room so I couldn’t see who opened the main door but there’s only one person who knows my passcode. “Lily.” Right! The impatient Rogue Harrison couldn’t wait for anyone. Especially me. I lazily opened the door and caught him looking at his wristwatch. My lips parted after I saw him in a black suit. He looked dashing now that his hair was fixed properly. I looked at him from head to foot and when I looked at his face again, I realized he’s also checking me out. His lips parted when his eyes landed on my face after roaming his eyes all over my body. He cleared his throat as his eyes burned with desire. “Are we late? Let’s go,” I said as I a
