Did Publishers Release An English Translation Of Stay Away, Mr. CEO!?

If you've been hunting for English versions of 'The CEO Is Obsessed With Me', I’ve done the same scavenger-hunt and can tell you what turns up. Most of what I found are fan translations: people posting chapter-by-chapter translations of the novel or scanlations of the comic on aggregator sites and forum threads. Those are usually free, uneven in quality, and sometimes drop mid-story when the team burns out. On the bright side, fan translators often move faster than official channels, and you can at least get the gist of plot arcs, character beats, and the spicy CEO energy that hooks readers. Official English releases are rarer. A handful of titles like this sometimes get licensed and show up on places like Webnovel’s international app, Amazon Kindle as self-published translations, or niche publishers if the series gains traction. My rule of thumb: check 'NovelUpdates' for translation indexes, look for an ISBN or publisher note before you buy, and support official releases when they appear so more series get licensed. Personally, I usually read fan translations while keeping an eye on official drops — that way I get my fix and still support the creators when I can.

Every time that episode popped up I grinned — episode 5 of 'Stay Away, Mr. CEO!' actually pulls material from roughly chapters 13 through 18 of the source comic, and it’s one of those stretches where the pacing gets delightfully brisk. The episode opens on the aftermath of the misunderstanding that began earlier: the protagonist tries to confront the CEO about the accidental exposure and the rumors, which corresponds to the tail end of chapter 13 and the beginning of 14. You get the escalating tension, snappy dialogue, and that awkward dinner scene that the show leans into for both comedy and emotional teeth. Chapters 15 and 16 are where the episode leans into quieter beats — the flashback to the protagonist’s tougher days, a brief hospital visit that’s more heart-tugging in the comic, and the little domestic scenes that deepen their dynamic. The show condenses some internal monologue into visuals, so if you loved the introspection in the comic, flip back to those chapters for the full texture. Then chapters 17–18 deliver the episode’s latter half: the boardroom ripples, a public confrontation that forces the CEO to act, and the cliffhanger that leads into the next episode. If you’ve been reading the comic, you’ll notice the adaptation trims a few side beats — a short scene with a secondary character and an extra day-in-the-city slice are condensed to keep the episode runtime tight. I liked how the animators translated the comic’s little facial ticks; it keeps the scene energy intact even if some small scenes vanish. Personally, these chapters are some of my favorites for balancing humor and genuine emotional stakes, and the episode captures that well — it left me eager to read those exact chapters again to savor the bits the show skimmed over.

I got curious about this one a while back and did a proper sweep: there doesn’t seem to be a widely distributed, officially licensed English release of 'Mr. CEO You Lost My Heart Forever' that you can buy on mainstream stores. What you will find, though, are community translations and partial chapter uploads by fans. Places where readers collect these sorts of things—forums, reading aggregators, and social groups—often host chapter-by-chapter fan versions, sometimes unfinished or sporadically updated. If you want readable English now, your safest bet is fan translations or browser-based machine translation of the original. Fan translations vary a lot in quality and completeness; some translate faithfully and polish the prose, others are rough but convey the plot. If supporting creators matters to you, keep an eye out for any announcements of official releases—sometimes publishers pick up popular web novels later. Personally, I prefer polished fan translations while waiting for an official edition, but I always feel a little protective of the original text and its author when relying on informal sources.

I get a little excited whenever someone asks about tracking down translations, so here’s what I dug up from my own hunt. I’ve seen people refer to 'Caught in the CEO's Longings' under a few slightly different English renderings, and that’s the first hurdle: titles get tweaked between platforms and fan posts. If you search only the exact phrase you might miss variants like 'Caught by the CEO' or 'The CEO's Longing', so try a few searches. From what I’ve seen, full official English releases are rare for niche romantic/manhwa-style works unless a big digital publisher picks them up. Fan translations do exist in pockets—scanlation communities, Tumblr/Blogspot archives, and Discord servers sometimes host chapter-by-chapter translations, but availability is patchy and quality varies. I usually look at MangaDex for manhua/manga, NovelUpdates for novels, and the major stores (Webtoon, Tapas, Tappytoon) for any licensed releases. My take: if you want consistent, high-quality English text, watch for a release on major platforms and support it when it appears. If you’re impatient, fan translations will get you by but remember they can vanish and often miss editorial polish. Personally I tend to bookmark promising projects and cheer louder when they get licensed—feels good to see creators rewarded.

I get a little giddy whenever someone asks where to read 'Stay Away, Mr. CEO!' the right way — I love pointing people toward ways that actually help the creators. The most straightforward place to check first is Webnovel (the official site/app run by Webnovel/Qidian International). They host a lot of translated Chinese novels and often have licensed, updated versions with commentary, chapter notes, and a tipping system. If a story appears there with publisher branding or a verified author page, that’s usually a legit sign that your reads are supporting the original team. Beyond Webnovel, I always recommend checking major ebook stores: Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play Books sometimes carry licensed digital editions or official translations. If there’s ever a print edition, bookstores like Barnes & Noble or local retailers (and their online shops) will list ISBNs and publisher info — another good clue that it’s aboveboard. Libraries shouldn’t be overlooked either: use apps like Libby/OverDrive to see if a library has a licensed ebook or audiobook copy. If you’re curious about adaptations (comics or manhua), look at established platforms like Webtoon, Tapas, or the publisher’s own comic app — official adaptations will usually appear there with clear credits. And one last practical tip: check the author or publisher’s social profiles; they often post links to authorized translations and stores. I always feel better reading on legit platforms — the quality is cleaner and I like knowing I’m giving the creators some support.
