Semua Bab Sleeping With My Boss: Becoming Surrogate Mom For My Friend: Bab 21 - Bab 30

Sierra might truly have to admit that she had lost her mind. Perhaps she could say that she had lost control of her own thoughts and allowed herself to go into madness.However, thankfully, there was still one person who could keep his composure—the same person who had pushed her into the car and shocked her with a kiss.She didn’t know why Axton had kissed her in the car, but she was grateful he managed to stop all the chaos. Axton drove his car away from the house, and she hoped no one had seen her in that car—at least not in such a disheveled state, with her skirt pushed up to her stomach because Axton had messed everything up with his hands and fingers.Axton should have stopped the car somewhere farther from the house so they could continue what he had started. But Sierra was relieved when her phone rang, interrupting them before they could do anything more reckless."Yes, Damian. We’re on our way to the project site. Don’t worry." She turned her head, still panting, as Axton spe

Flashback 5 Years Ago…"Her name is Callie, Mom. She’s my girlfriend."Axton could feel Callie's nervousness as she clung to his hand that bright morning. His mother had unexpectedly shown up at his apartment and found Callie in his room.This wasn’t how Axton had planned to introduce Callie to his mother. Over the past month, he had considered several better ways—perhaps inviting Callie to a family dinner seemed like the most sensible option. But before he could put his plan into action, his mother had beaten him to it by showing up unannounced. There was no avoiding it now—he had to introduce Callie."Mrs. Scott, it’s nice to meet you." Callie extended her hand, wearing a sweet smile despite her obvious discomfort. Axton knew he'd have to spend the rest of the day making up for the awkward situation he'd put her in."Since when do you have a girlfriend, Axton?" His mother raised an eyebrow, her tone skeptical.Axton noticed Callie withdrawing her hand hesitantly.This wasn’t going w

Flashback 4 Years Ago…Sierra almost dropped her face when she saw a ring in the farthest corner—far from the attention of anyone looking because everyone would be focused on the dozens of large diamond rings placed in the center.“Do you think Callie will like this?” Axton asked, pointing to a solitaire ring with a large, sparkling gem.Exactly. Everyone would immediately notice that ring.“It looks good,” Sierra said to Axton—her boss, who was also Callie’s boyfriend and best friend.Among all the plot twists in her life, Sierra didn’t understand why Callie had to date a man who was her boss. But of course, it wasn’t a big deal because Sierra and Axton could still work professionally when they were in the office. She just hoped that the couple would never break up, or she would feel awkward with both of them. And it seemed her wish came true because a year after they started dating, Axton was now taking her to buy a ring for Callie since he planned to propose.“Come on, Sierra. You

Sierra closed her eyes as she turned to see Mr. Smith standing there—looking at her and Axton in an entirely inappropriate situation for a boss and his secretary.Sierra pulled her hand away from Axton, who finally let go. She stepped back, creating the proper distance that should always exist between a boss and a secretary."Can I have a copy of today’s meeting documents? I need to review them further," the man asked, without acknowledging the awkwardness of the situation.Sierra wasn’t sure whether to feel relieved or guilty."Of course, Mr. Smith. I’ll send the report to you," Axton replied. "If I may ask, could I send the report directly to you without going through your secretary?"Axton had clearly lost his mind.Sierra cleared her throat, giving Axton a signal to stop whatever he was about to say."Is there a problem, Mr. Scott?""No, none at all," Axton replied, shaking his head.Sierra sighed in relief."It’s just that I noticed your secretary often makes things difficult for

Sierra swallowed hard as she looked up and saw Damian sitting on Axton’s desk, frowning.A few seconds later, she glanced down, checking her appearance, relieved she had straightened up her outfit beforehand. She needed to think fast and say something to break their awkwardness.“Oh, hi,” she said with a quick smile, then turned her gaze to Axton, who was seated in his chair. “Thank you for letting me use your bathroom. I’m sorry for interrupting your time, Mr. Scott.”“Of course, Sierra. You’re welcome to use it,” Axton replied smoothly, playing along with her lie, much to Sierra’s relief.“Thank you,” she nodded. “Would you like me to get you some coffee or something else to drink? There are some new beverages in the kitchen. Maybe you’d like something, Mr. Damian?” She alternated her gaze between Axton and Damian. Truthfully, she glanced at Axton for less than a second, keeping her eyes mostly on Damian to avoid making direct eye contact with the former.“No need, Sierra,” Axton an
