I flinched when Jace entered the room. I quickly hid the paper I was holding. I could feel him walking toward me.

"Hey, Babes!" He sat down on the floor beside me and wrapped his arms around my waist.

He glanced over my shoulder at the scattered files in front of me.

"What are you going to do with these?" he asked, referring to the documents.

"I was just going to sort them out. I want to organize the most important ones so they’ll be easier to find," I replied.

"Leave that for later. I’m hungry," he said in a playful tone before kissing my shoulder.

He must have noticed that something was bothering me. He turned me to face him.

"Is something wrong?" he asked, frowning.

I shook my head. I didn’t know how to tell him.

"Come on, let’s go downstairs. I’ll start cooking."

It's Friday. Meaning, today is my last day at work. Just thinking about staying home all day already makes me feel restless.

Jace and I arrived at the office earlier than usual. He said he had something important to finish

I don’t want you to look up at the name Jill since it's just the female lead’s second name, so just enjoy reading. I also accept both negative and positive reviews. Thank you! And also their call sign both using their name.

  • The New Boss Is My Husband   Chapter 65

    Arrienne’s POVI woke to the sound of silence—almost too perfect. It had been days since we last heard from our enemies, but the stillness felt off. I knew better than to believe we were safe just because things seemed calm. The world around us had been spiraling out of control, and I had the sinking feeling that it was only a matter of time before the storm hit again.I sat up in bed, clutching the sheets to my chest, the weight of the past few weeks still hanging heavily in my mind. Jace had been distant lately, though his eyes never left me when we were together. He wasn’t just worried about me anymore—he was afraid of what we’d become, afraid of losing more than we already had.I took a deep breath and pushed myself out of bed, forcing myself to move despite the exhaustion that clung to my bones. The baby was kicking, a gentle reminder of the life growing inside me. There was so much at stake. More than I ever imagined.As I stood in front of the mirror, I caught sight of the bruis

  • The New Boss Is My Husband   Chapter 64

    Arrienne’s POVThe air in the room felt thick, like the weight of our survival was pressing down on us, crushing everything we held dear. Every step I took, every breath I took, felt like it was an eternity. The sounds of the men approaching only made my heart race harder, my body stiff with tension. I kept my daughter close, her trembling form a reminder of how fragile this world could be.Jace moved ahead, his sharp instincts guiding him. He didn’t need to say a word, but I could see it in his eyes—the same determination that had always been there. He wasn’t just trying to survive; he was fighting to protect everything that mattered.I had seen him in countless battles, in situations where we should’ve been long gone, and yet he had always found a way. He was a master at keeping his composure, at seeing through the chaos. But this time… this time felt different. The weight of what we were facing was heavier, more immediate. The danger was close enough to taste.“Arrienne,” Jace’s voi

  • The New Boss Is My Husband   Chapter 63

    Arrienne's POVThe darkness in the panic room was suffocating. My breath came in sharp gasps as I clutched my son tightly to my chest. The weight of the situation crashed over me in waves. The fact that we were under attack again, that my family was in danger once more, felt like a nightmare I couldn’t wake up from.I kept my eyes on Jace. He stood rigid, his gun in hand, his face set in stone. The same cold determination I knew so well, the same strength that had kept us alive through every danger, was there—but it was different now. His eyes, normally filled with calculated resolve, were clouded with something far deeper. A raw, primal fear. Fear for us. For our children.I knew what he was thinking. He had seen me bleed before, seen me face down death, but this was different. This time, the enemy wasn’t just after me—it was after everything we had built, everything we held dear. And Jace wasn’t about to let that happen.I reached for his hand, pulling it to my stomach. "Jace," I whi

  • The New Boss Is My Husband   Chapter 62

    Arrienne’s POVThe house was too quiet.Too still.After everything that had happened—the ambush, the escape, the birth of our son—I thought the chaos would finally settle. But deep in my bones, I knew better. Peace, for us, was never permanent. It was a borrowed breath before the storm returned.I rocked our baby gently in my arms, his tiny body wrapped snugly in a soft blue blanket. Janna sat beside me, unusually quiet, hugging her favorite stuffed bunny while casting worried glances at the door. She was only five, but children like her—children born into war masked as family loyalty—grew up faster than most.“Mommy,” she whispered, “where’s Daddy?”I kissed the top of her head. “He’s making sure we’re safe, baby. He’ll be back soon.”She nodded, but the worry didn’t leave her eyes.Neither did mine.Jace had left hours ago, chasing a new lead—one that could end Nathan Vasquez’s trail once and for all. But something about the silence in the air, the way the security team paced the ha

  • The New Boss Is My Husband   Chapter 61

    Arrienne’s POVThe silence in the safe house was different now. Not peaceful—just… waiting. Heavy. Every ticking second felt like a countdown, but to what, I wasn’t sure.Janna sat quietly beside me, her small fingers braiding the hem of my shawl. Her eyes, so much like Jace’s, held a quiet awareness far beyond her years. Across the room, our newborn son slept soundly, his tiny chest rising and falling like nothing in the world could ever touch him.But we knew better.Jace stood by the window, arms crossed, his eyes scanning the dark horizon. He hadn’t spoken much since the night of the ambush. Not really. He was here—but somewhere else, too. His mind always moving, planning, fighting shadows I couldn’t see.“Any word from Aiden?” I asked quietly.He shook his head. “Nothing since his last check-in. They’re sweeping the last safehouses. If Dominic’s still moving, he’s doing it quietly.”I swallowed. Dominic.The name had once been synonymous with loyalty. With family. Now, it tasted l

  • The New Boss Is My Husband   Chapter 60

    Arrienne’s POVThe days that followed the attack blurred into a haze of pain, recovery, and quiet dread. The safe house was secure—for now. But security was no longer the illusion it used to be. I knew better. We all did.Jace barely left the side of our newborn son, who we named Elian, a name that meant “God has answered.” And maybe, despite the chaos, He had. Our baby was alive. Janna was safe. Papa Enrique was recovering. And I was breathing. That had to count for something.But every time I looked at Jace, I could feel the weight he was carrying. His eyes, once so quick to light up when Janna laughed or when I teased him, now held shadows that never left.He stayed awake long after I drifted off, fingers always tapping on encrypted files, watching surveillance footage, reading reports. Every move was calculated. Every breath, monitored.One evening, I approached him while he sat alone in the makeshift study at the far end of the safe house. He didn’t hear me come in, not until I re
