Une menteuse incontrôlable face à un PDG glacial Léna a un don : elle ment comme elle respire. Pas par méchanceté, juste parce que la vérité est souvent… ennuyeuse. Embellir son CV, inventer des expériences incroyables, se faire passer pour quelqu’un d’autre ? Un jeu d’enfant. Mais quand son dernier mensonge la propulse dans une multinationale dirigée par Adrian Blackwood, l’homme le plus redouté du monde des affaires, elle réalise qu’elle a peut-être joué un peu trop gros. Un PDG qui ne tolère pas l’erreur Adrian Blackwood est un homme de principes. La rigueur, l’efficacité, la vérité. Il ne laisse aucune place au hasard ni aux erreurs humaines. Alors, quand il découvre que sa nouvelle assistante a un CV plus bidon qu’un billet de monopoly, il devrait la virer sur-le-champ. Mais quelque chose chez elle l’intrigue. Sa confiance insolente, sa façon de se sortir de chaque situation par une pirouette verbale… et surtout, le défi qu’elle représente. Un marché impossible Plutôt que de la mettre à la porte, Adrian lui propose un marché : un mois d’essai, à une seule condition. Pas un seul mensonge. Un écart et elle est dehors. Léna accepte… puis réalise qu’elle vient de se condamner elle-même. Dire la vérité ? Elle n’a jamais su faire. Surtout pas face à un patron qui semble capable de lire dans ses pensées et qui, malgré son air glacial, commence dangereusement à lui plaire. Entre tensions et mensonges Quand la vérité éclatera, qui sortira vainqueur ?

My mother kept a red notebook recording all of my sister's favourite things. She had a blue notebook for me too. When my mother was hospitalized, I took leaves from work to take care of her. My sister had never shown up. However, my mother recorded in the blue notebook, '15th March, I am not well and am hospitalized. Celine owed me 450 dollars for food allowance. I knew that was not a notebook about my favourite things, but a notebook of all of my expenses. Behind the closed doors, Mother said to Father, "Celine is an evil person. She always likes to compete with her sister. We must take a chance to steal all her money and leave with Belle. Later when we are old, we will ask her to take care of us. I think we should just ask her to pay us back all the money we spent on her that I have recorded in this notebook. I was devastated at that moment.

Susie Chance always claimed to value fairness above all else. Because of that, she ordered a specially designed chip implanted into my body. Whenever her childhood sweetheart suffered bouts of stomach cancer, all his suffering would be transferred onto me.

It didn’t hurt at all, right?” Later, she said she wanted to hold a wedding with her childhood sweetheart, so he could experience being a groom as well. “Even though the one marrying me is Mark, the one I’ll register with in the future will still be you. I told you… I’ve always treated you both equally.” I said nothing, simply returning the wedding ring she had once placed in my hands. However, when the wedding march finally began to play, I boarded a one-way flight far away.

During the holiday season, a flood hits. The company's warehouse is submerged up to the third floor. Due to the emergency, I have my assistant tell everyone to come back a day early to help. I promise that the company will provide stipends and extra time off to make up for this. But on that day, a Gen Z employee goes live across the internet to report me. "Oh, my God. It's 2025, yet there are still companies forcing employees to adjust their time off and work overtime! Is this heartless boss so broke that she needs to exploit us like this? Will she die if she doesn't squeeze us out of every drop of usefulness? Company notices override the law. Impressive stuff, this is!" Soon, the company ends up on the trending list due to criticism from the online community. Even the regulators come knocking to hold us accountable. In the end, the company is forced to cancel the notice. A lot of equipment isn't salvaged in time, resulting in significant losses. The employee even posts a victory lap. "Give the boss a tiny lesson—see if she dares to force overtime again!" I'm so angry that I laugh out loud. I tell my assistant to cancel the annual benefit we give all employees—an entire month of paid time off for Christmas and the New Year holidays. If we have to stick strictly to the law, then fine. Have it your way!

My husband only married me for a family alliance, but his heart was always with his first love. To please her, he even threw her a grand wedding. He forced me to play the wedding march at their ceremony. When I hit a single wrong note, he stood by as she drove steel needles through my fingers. “Weren’t you so proud of being a pianist? Then I’ll take that away from you.” “This is my revenge for forcing me into this marriage!” Later, I got pregnant.
