Plus-Size Secretary: A Contract Marriage with My Boss Chapter 35
The hands of the clock on the CEO's office wall had long passed two in the afternoon, yet the tension on the thirty-sixth floor had not eased in the slightest.Kael repeatedly loosened the knot of his gray tie, which seemed to be tightening around his strong neck with every passing minute. His thoughts were a complete mess. Not a single word from the market analysis document displayed on his computer monitor for the past hour had managed to register in his mind. Every time he tried to focus, the image of Hellena's face and her luscious lips would force its way into his thoughts without permission.Knock! Knock! Knock!The steady knock on the door instantly severed the thread of Kael's wandering thoughts.The man straightened his back and cleared his throat briefly to steady the hoarseness that had suddenly crept into his voice.“Come in.”The large oak door swung open, and Hellena stepped inside with graceful, composed strides. In her small hands, she carried a black leather folder co

The thirty-sixth floor of the Willian Group building was shrouded in an atmosphere far more oppressive than usual that morning. The moment the private elevator doors chimed open, Kael stepped out with his jaw firmly set, his gaze fixed straight ahead, as cold as ice untouched by sunlight. The dark gray suit Hellena had chosen for him earlier that morning fit perfectly against his tall frame, yet his aura radiated a sense of danger that prompted the staff in the corridor to lower their heads immediately, unwilling to invite trouble.Kael deliberately quickened his stride as he passed the secretary cubicles. Without sparing a single glance toward the curvy woman seated there, he pushed open the door to his office with a forceful shove.Click.As soon as the door closed, Kael released a long breath through his nose, trying to calm the erratic pounding of his heart. He tossed his work bag onto the marble desk before walking toward the large window overlooking the city skyline. Gripping th

"Mr. Kael?"A confused voice broke the silence that had suddenly frozen inside the master bedroom.Kael jolted violently, as if he had just been forcefully pulled back from an unimaginably deep abyss. His dark eyes blinked rapidly, struggling to regain focus after his vision had momentarily blurred. The moment his senses returned completely, the sight before him made his heart pound twice as hard, slamming painfully against his chest.Hellena was still standing right in front of him. Her small hands were still raised in the air, holding the knot of his gray tie at the collar of Kael's shirt while keeping a very proper distance. There was no bed, no body thrown backward onto the mattress, and no intoxicating kiss."Mr. Kael, why are you spacing out?" Hellena asked again, her brows knitting together as she noticed how pale her boss had suddenly become and how uneven his breathing was. "Are you alright? Is your dizziness coming back?"Kael was stunned, standing frozen like a wax statue i

The bathroom door, which had remained closed for quite some time, finally opened. Hellena stepped into the master bedroom with the initial intention of retrieving several work documents she had left on Kael's desk. However, her footsteps came to an abrupt halt near the bedpost when she saw that Kael was already standing in front of the large mirror, struggling with the gray silk tie Hellena had chosen for him earlier that morning.Kael seemed to be having a little difficulty. His large hands, which were usually accustomed to gripping contract papers and pens, now appeared stiff as he tried to form the perfect Windsor knot, the lingering weakness in his muscles after last night's fever still affecting him.Seeing that sight, the instincts of a secretary who had served the man for five years suddenly took over Hellena's body. She let out a short breath before striding forward and closing the distance between them."Let me help you, Sir," Hellena said softly, stopping Kael's hands with a

The thin morning sunlight slowly streamed through the gap in the curtains of the master bedroom, casting a golden glow across the marble floor. Hellena had been awake since before the clock struck six. Her curvy body moved in a steady rhythm, making no noise that could disturb the peace of the man still sleeping soundly on the king-size bed.As Kael's personal secretary who had worked by his side at Willian Group for five years, Hellena naturally knew every detail of her boss's preferences by heart. Without needing any instructions, she walked into the spacious dressing room and skillfully selected his clothes. Her fingers settled on a dark gray tailored suit, paired with a crisp white shirt made of smooth fabric and a silk tie adorned with subtle diagonal stripes in matching shades.Hellena returned to the bedroom and carefully placed the perfect combination of work attire at the foot of the bed, right beside Kael's feet. After finishing, her steps came to an abrupt halt. She stood m

Kael's breathing gradually became heavier and more regular beneath the thick wool blanket.Hellena had just been about to stand up and tidy the empty porridge bowl on the bedside table when three soft knocks sounded on the master bedroom door.Before Hellena could take a step, the teak door slowly opened, revealing Mrs. Hansel with an expression etched with a mother's concern.Mrs. Hansel closed the door very carefully before walking toward the bedside without making much noise with her footsteps."Hellena," Mrs. Hansel whispered, her voice trembling softly as her eyes caught sight of the compress resting on her only son's forehead. "How is Kael doing, dear?"Hellena forced a gentle smile, trying to reassure the middle-aged woman."His temperature was very high earlier, Mom. But I just fed him some porridge, and he's already taken his fever medicine."Hearing the whispers nearby, Kael's eyelids fluttered faintly.The man slowly opened his eyes, blinking his still-reddened and weary ga

"Mr. Kael chose me not because of my clothing size," Hellena interrupted swiftly, her voice rising slightly as she cut Cindy off mercilessly. "He needs a professional who can prepare financial reports without being off by a single cent, manage meetings with foreign investors across three different

Hellena adjusted her maroon blouse in front of the large mirror in her room, making sure there were no awkward wrinkles in the fabric. The faint dark circles beneath her eyes were undeniable proof of how poorly she had slept last night. Sleeping on the floor atop a thick carpet, only a few meters a

The soft sound of water splashing against the marble floor echoed faintly from behind the frosted glass bathroom door. Inside the damp space now filled with swirling warm steam, Hellena stood beneath the shower with her eyes closed. She allowed the streams of warm water to cascade over her body, tr

The luxury sedan cut through the capital's main thoroughfares at a steady speed before finally turning into an elite residential district closed to the public. The neighborhood was wrapped in an expensive silence, where each property was separated by vast gardens worth a fortune. Hellena gazed out
