All Chapters of Married To My Boss; I Swear I Still Hate Him.: Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

April's pov.If there was anything I hated more than my shit head boss, it was the excruciating sound of moans that I was forced to listen to while sitting outside his office. The only thing Rowan knew how to do was make my life miserable with his irrelevant tasks and torturous long hours at work. However, I had no choice because being his secretary paid just enough to sustain my mom and I. Plus, it was a good distraction from the fact that my boyfriend of four years had just gotten married a week ago and I was completely oblivious to the fact that I was the side chick. I didn't want to talk about it.After what seemed like forever, the blonde girl who had been moaning so loudly finally stepped out of his office, her hair disheveled and her make-up smeared all over her face. She flashed me a grin, barely able to walk, and I rolled my eyes at her. “He wants you in there to clean up..” she paused to giggle. “Things got kinda messy.” My eyes followed her as she left, and then I got

Rowan's pov.I had woken up that morning with my phone already blown up with calls, texts and emails.

I was successful on my own, even if his conglomerate was bigger than my company. However, mom would have my head if I ever let my father give the company away. Stepping out of the shower, I caught my reflection in the mirror, and for a moment, just for a tiny moment, I felt so

The lawyer arrived within an hour, and Rowan laid out the papers on the desk in front of me. “Separate rooms, work comes first, no jealousy, and the contract lasts for only a year. We'll end the marriage once the dust settles.” He uttered, leaning against his desk with his arms crossed. I sighed, flipping through the pages of the contract. “I have conditions too. No touching in private, and I'd like it very much if we stayed out of each other's businesses.” “You don't have to worry about that.” His eyes swept over me with disgust, and I scrunched my nose at him. “It’s settled then. Sign the papers and I'll send you the first half of our agreed payment.” I took a deep breath before moving to grab the pen. I knew I was about to make a horrible decision, one that I would definitely regret, but I had no choice. Mom was in need of surgery, and I had nowhere to go.I signed it and pushed it over to him. He s
