Evelyn quickly covered her mouth. “I still have to study tonight…” she mumbled.Roman gently pried her hand away.“Baby, you’ve worked enough already,” he whispered, his voice soft, warm, grounding. “You’ve been through so much—the hospital, the stress, my father, Lena’s father… all of it.” He brushed a stray lock of hair from her face. “Let me take care of you tonight.”Her heart skipped. “I—”His lips brushed her forehead. “You can conquer the corporate world anytime. But tonight?” He pulled back just enough to meet her eyes. “Tonight, I want all of you.”Evelyn’s breath caught in her throat.She opened her mouth to protest, to remind him of her responsibilities, her studies… but before she could, her arms rose instinctively to wrap around his neck.“Fine,” she whispered. “But only because you asked so nicely.”Roman’s smile was slow, satisfied, utterly devastating.“Good answer.”He leaned down again, and in that moment, everything else faded.—-Much later, Evelyn lay curled agai

Soft morning light slipped through the curtains.Evelyn stirred slowly, her lashes fluttering open as warmth surrounded her.For a moment, she didn’t move.Roman’s arm rested over her waist, his chest rising steadily against her back as he slept.Her heart softened instantly.Carefully, she tried to slip out of his embrace so she could freshen up before starting the day.But the moment she shifted, Roman suddenly tightened his arm and pulled her back against him.Evelyn gasped softly in surprise.Her eyes widened. “You’re already awake?”Roman only responded with a sleepy groan, pulling her closer. His nose brushed along the sensitive curve of her neck, the warm breath tickling her skin.She laughed softly. “Roman, you’re tickling me.”Instead of stopping, he suddenly nipped lightly at her neck.At the same time, his body pressed closer, his morning arousal brushing against her thigh.Evelyn stiffened.Her breath grew heavier as warmth pooled low in her stomach.But she quickly steadi

Evelyn tilted her head slightly, her expression composed.“I wasn’t aware the company’s code of conduct includes addressing the CEO so… informally.”Her voice was not loud, yet it carried enough quiet authority to settle between them.For a brief second, the air shifted.Then Amelia scoffed, letting out a soft laugh.“How formal,” she said lightly, though her eyes sharpened. “You’ll find Sinclair Industries isn’t always that rigid.”She shifted her weight, crossing one arm loosely.“I’ve worked with Mr. Sinclair for years,” she continued smoothly. “Some habits tend to stick.”Evelyn held her gaze, unmoved.“I see,” she said calmly. “Then you should also know when to maintain them.”Something flickered across Amelia’s face quickly.The elevator continued its steady ascent, the quiet hum filling the brief silence between them.Amelia recovered quickly, her bright expression returning as though nothing had happened.“I can see you’ll adjust just fine here,” she said, her tone light aga

The mention of the Hayes corporation was enough to stir the room. Low murmurs spread across the table as a few executives exchanged glances.Evelyn’s fingers stilled against the edge of her document.“They have recently inserted themselves into the Westline Commercial Project,” Marcus continued, his voice measured. “A project Sinclair Industries has already heavily invested in.”“That’s ridiculous,” someone said immediately. “They barely survived their last financial crisis.”“They shouldn’t even have the capital for that level of involvement,” another added.Marcus allowed the reactions to settle before speaking again.“They have secured new backing,” he said. “And from the speed of their recovery, it is not a minor one.”His gaze shifted then, slow and intentional, landing directly on Evelyn.“And more importantly, they appear unusually confident.”The implication did not need to be explained.Several heads turned toward Evelyn almost at once.A senior executive leaned forward slig

Leo’s jaw dropped the moment the question left his boss’s mouth.Roman frowned slightly at his reaction. His gaze flicked upstairs unconsciously before returning to Leo.“What’s with that expression? Are you going to answer me or not?” he asked, irritation creeping into his tone.Leo was still staring.Roman’s eyes darkened. His grip tightened around the coffee box Evelyn had shoved into his hands. Slowly, he raised it.“I—boss, don’t!” Leo yelped, immediately grabbing a pillow and holding it up like a shield.Roman shot him a look.“Are you really joking right now, or—”“Leo.”That one word was enough.“Okay! Okay—boss…” Leo swallowed, lowering the pillow slightly. “Can you… maybe put your hand down first?”Roman stared at him for a second longer before lowering the box, though the glare didn’t leave his face.Leo let out a breath of relief.“Boss… do you really not know your secretary? Miss Kensington?” he asked carefully, still watching Roman like he might snap again. “Even while y
