All Chapters of Falling For My Arrogant Boss: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Rose didn’t open the email immediately.She just stared at the notification.Her name.No subject.No sender.Just… there.Something about it felt wrong.Not urgent.Not accidental.Intentional.Her fingers hovered over the screen for a second longer than necessary.Then she clicked it.The message was short.Too short.Stop digging if you want to keep your job.Rose’s breath stilled.No signature.No trace.Nothing.For a moment, the noise of the office faded into the background.The clicking keyboards.The distant conversations.The movement.All of it blurred.Her grip on the mouse tightened slightly.This wasn’t a joke.It didn’t feel like one.And it didn’t feel random either.Someone knew.Knew she was looking into the report.Knew she hadn’t let it go.Slowly, she leaned back in her chair, her mind racing.Sophia?No.That didn’t feel right.Sophia was calculated, yes—but emotional.Impulsive.This?This was controlled.Cold.Different.Rose closed the email without replying.N

The office was quieter than usual.Not completely silent—phones still rang, printers hummed, keyboards clicked—but the energy had shifted. Every glance felt longer, every movement a little slower. It was subtle, but Rose noticed immediately.People were watching. Waiting. Whispering.And she couldn’t help but feel… like she was at the center of it all.Rose sat down at her desk, her fingers hovering over the keyboard. The moment she touched it, her pulse quickened. Every email she sent, every file she opened, could be traced. She knew someone was watching, and she couldn’t afford a misstep.Her eyes flicked toward the corner of the office. Jason hadn’t arrived yet, but she could almost feel his presence—like a shadow standing just beyond her vision, steady, assessing.When he finally appeared, he leaned against the edge of her desk for just a moment. His expression was unreadable. Calm, collected, but beneath it… sharper than she’d ever seen.“No one else knows?” he asked quietly.Ros

Rose didn’t touch the keyboard again for a while.She just stared at the message.You’re getting closer.It sat there, plain and quiet… but it felt louder than anything else in the room.Jason moved first.“Log everything,” he said, voice steady but low. “Screenshots, backups—anything before it disappears.”That snapped Rose back into motion.Her fingers moved quickly, almost automatically now. Capture. Duplicate. Export. She saved copies in places she hadn’t even told Jason about—habits she didn’t realize she’d built until now.“You think he’ll wipe it?” she asked.Jason gave a short nod. “He’s been cleaning everything else. No reason he’d stop now.”Across the office, the normal workday continued.Phones rang.Someone laughed.A chair rolled across the floor.And somehow, that made it worse.Because whatever was happening between them and Daniel… no one else could see it.Rose finally leaned back, exhaling. “Okay. I’ve got copies.”Jason glanced at her screen, then at her. “Hidden?”

The lights went out.Not a flicker.Not a warning.Total darkness.Rose’s breath caught in her throat.For a split second, the entire office went silent—like even the machines didn’t know how to respond.Then—Alarms.A low, pulsing sound filled the building, sharp and disorienting.Emergency lights kicked in, washing everything in dim red.“What just happened?” Rose whispered.Jason was already moving.“Power cut,” he said quickly. “Not external. This is internal.”Rose’s heart started pounding.“You think it’s him?”Jason didn’t hesitate.“I know it is.”Somewhere down the hall, a door slammed.Voices rose—confused, unsettled.But none of that mattered.Because this wasn’t random.This was targeted.“Your system,” Jason said, turning back to her. “Can you access it?”Rose rushed back to her desk, her hands moving fast despite the adrenaline shaking through her.The screen flickered weakly under backup power.“Come on… come on…” she muttered.The system loaded—slow, glitching—but ali

The door clicked.Rose’s breath stopped.Jason’s grip on her hand tightened—instinct, not permission.The handle turned slowly.Deliberately.Then—The door opened.Daniel stood there.Calm.Composed.Like he hadn’t just locked them in, shut down the system, and threatened them through a burner phone.His gaze moved between them.Then dropped briefly—To their hands.Something unreadable flickered in his expression.“Interesting,” he said.Jason didn’t move.Didn’t let go.“What do you want?” Jason asked, voice cold.Daniel stepped inside, closing the door behind him with a soft click.Too soft.Too controlled.“I could ask you the same thing,” he replied.Rose’s pulse spiked.He was playing this like a conversation.Like none of this was happening.Jason shifted slightly, placing himself just a bit more in front of her.Subtle.But intentional.“We’re done with games,” Jason said.Daniel tilted his head.“Are you?”Before either of them could respond—The lights went out again.Darkn
