All Chapters of Married to my boss: Chapter 1 - Chapter 7

“What are you saying?” Elara’s voice cracked as she half-yelled into the phone, her fingers trembling slightly around it. Today was her wedding day. She and her boyfriend are getting married, they're supposed to meet by 9am but this is almost twelve and he hasn't showed up."Henry we agreed to meet by nine and this is almost twelve o'clock." She complained on the phone.She was standing in front of the courthouse in her white gown, the delicate fabric clinging to her body, the veil resting lightly over her shoulders. Everything about her appearance screamed the bride except the panic rising in her chest. "Elara, we won't be getting married today again." Henry said from the phone. "What do you mean we won't be getting married today? We planned to meet and get married, and we'd be doing exactly that. I'm waiting for you please!" She said, her voice shaky. “I'm sorry, Elara, I can’t come today.” Henry’s voice came through the phone, coldly, nothing like the man she thought she knew

Elara gasped into his mouth softly, but it betrayed her completely.Their lips were locked warmly, unfamiliar in a way that made her heart stumble. Yet Alex didn’t deepen the kiss. He didn’t tilt his head, didn’t pull her closer, didn’t claim her the way a man in love would. And somehow, that made it even more overwhelming. Her fingers curled slightly against his chest, uncertain whether to push him away or hold on.Alex broke the kiss and Elara blinked, she pulled away from him instantly. “Why did you do that?” She complained. “Because of my family, they're here.” Alex replied, his eyes darted towards them as they entered one by one.“You could've stated it, you could've just said that you wanted to kiss me,” Elara whispered angrily.“It's just a kiss, nothing much.”He said nonchalantly, straightening his tie.Elara rolled her eyes, she noticed how cold he was but she's not expecting anything less than that, his bride didn't show up like the way Henry didn't.Alex smiled at his g

“No?” Genevieve(his grandmother) questioned. She noticed the awkward tension between them and noticed something we're wrong. Elara’s lips parted slightly,What has she done? Alex looked at her coldly. His grandmother is so smart, he's sure she's noticing already. “I mean he shouldn't kiss me, I will do that. Right baby?” Elara said quickly and Alex forced a smile. Genevieve nodded. “Kiss my grandson, it's your choice.” “She might be a shy granny.” One of the family members said. “Kiss! Kiss!” Elara glared at Alex who returned the glare. She's not shy, she hates the fact that he'd kiss her, because of how he kissed her unexpectedly. She grabbed him by the tie, Alex submissively moved closer to her, his family members screamed, Genevieve gasped with excitement. “Kiss him! Kiss him!” Elara rolled her eyes, her hands wrapped around his shoulder and their lips met. Alexander lost his mind immediately, he pulled her waist with his right hand and his other hand cupped her right ch

Back at Alex’s mansion. Alex stepped out of his room, already dressed in his nightwear. Exhaustion clung to him, but at the same time there was also a strange sense of relief settling in his chest.He didn’t fail his grandmother, he wasn’t humiliated because of anyone. Even if he didn't marry the woman of his choice, the best part was that he married someone. He sat at the edge of his bed, his mind replaying everything that had happened. He had left the Harrington mansion happily, believing he was finally about to marry the woman he loved. But she left him, she told him; “I’m twenty-four, I still have a long way to go. I can’t let marriage slow me down.” Her words echoed in his head, sharp and irritating. Alex let out a dry chuckle. She had a long way to go and he didn’t? He was only twenty-six. It wasn’t like he was desperate or trying to trap anyone into marriage. They have been together for good three years. Three years of building something he thought was real, only for it t
