All Chapters of My Bossy Secretary: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

(Finn’s POV)“I’m Lexi, your secretary.”Her words were an ice bucket thrown at my head that woke me up, stopping me from kissing her. I cleared my throat and looked closer at her.“Are you okay? Did Colonel hurt you?” I glanced at my dog. However, I doubted if my St. Bernard dog would do such a thing. He was now calm, lying on the floor and looking bored at us. I must have disappointed him by taking away his new playmate, still in my arms.“It -” Lexi pointed at the dog, which raised its head and wagged its tail.“He,” I corrected. All my pet dogs were my children, who were never an ‘it’ to me but important family members.She closed her eyes for a brief second and looked at Colonel, shaking her head as she cried in silence.“Lexi,” I called her name, wanting us to be free from our still awkward position.It seemed my body was not cooperating with my heart, screaming that she was not Lexa. Even my head on top of my body could not convince the head below that she was my secretary, a d

(Frank’s POV) “I’ve never seen you this excited in coming to the office, Frank,” Sky glanced at me, grinning as he looked quickly at his wristwatch, then at the changing colors of the floor buttons in the elevator. This has been one of the things I considered my perks when I was with Sky; the elevator would never be crowded unless his kids were with us in the elevator. No employee would want to join the lift with the chairman of the company inside. I chuckled, checking the time. It was nine past fifteen already, reaching Sky’s goal after our business trip. He wanted us to arrive at the office before ten because he was hoping to see his wife, Angela, before starting his day. “I’m always this excited, Sky,” I muttered, half-smiling and cursing myself quietly that I could not hide my excitement in going to the office today. He scoffed at me. “I knew when you’re excited or not, Frank. Your only difference with Finn is that we may not be brothers by blood, but we’re family already.” I

(Lexi’s POV)I must be sick, repeatedly blinking at the document in my hand. Today was the third time I had seen my contract, the first was when I stupidly signed it without reading the contents, and the second was when Catherine and I reviewed the details.“You’re allowed to breathe, Lexi,” Finn grinned as he relaxed, leaning on the backrest of his executive chair.Frank heaved a sigh, his silent way of saying the same, so I inhaled and exhaled, doing it again as I thought, why on earth did I get trapped in this contract?Ah! It was my earnest hope that I would be able to help my twin sister in earning and saving money for Aliyah’s operation. She wasn’t even a year older than me, just a few minutes, but between us, she had a greater share in our expenses at home since she earned more from singing at the bar. I needed a good and stable job.I read the first part, nodding and agreeing that I would faithfully do the best of my ability to carry out my duties and responsibilities as his w

(Lexi’s POV)It was only before six in the evening when I got home.Exhausted, I sat on the couch, leaned on the backrest, and closed my eyes, replaying in my mind how my day had gone. Finn didn’t mind that I spent most of my day with Frank as he busied himself attending meetings. When he left his office this morning, he didn’t return, just sending me a message to learn everything I could from Frank.Frank was a real gentleman and a professional, teaching me everything I needed to learn for my job. He showed me how he and Catherine dealt with their everyday work, especially on busy days. He gave me tips and a little information about how Finn worked and how I should push my boss when he felt uninspired to do his job. He shared how Angela and Finn competed at work despite holding and managing different companies and told me funny stories about them.Angela seemed to be the one pushing or inspiring Finn, but I didn’t see it that way. Something about him intrigued me, but I remembered I

(Lexi’s POV)“Why does Sky want to talk to me?”My eyes widened, almost whispering as I asked Frank when we were done eating breakfast. He just received a call from Catherine to relay the message to me, and after he ended their conversation, he helped me clear the table.Frank chuckled amusingly, glancing at me and picking up the paper bag on the table. “Catherine didn’t say, but why do you look so worried?” He asked as he opened the door, stopped while his other hand held the doorknob, and waited for me. “He’ll probably just ask about your first day.”I nodded, thinking about what I should tell him when my first day as secretary was a mess. Should I say to him about Colonel? Complain about my dislike of dogs? Does he know about his relationship with Lexa? Did Finn tell him about the kiss?“You’re making me worry, Lexi,” Frank uttered, looking at me with concern. “You’re turning pale. White as a ghost.”“Sorry, but it’s like being called by the school principal.” I smiled at him ner
