Novel & Cerita Secret Affair

A faint frown forms on my lips. “What is this…” I murmur under my breath. I slide a finger under the flap and tear it open. A single white sheet. I pull it out and unfold it. The moment my eyes land on the words, my entire body goes still. I KNOW YOUR SECRET AND THE TRUTH YOU ARE TRYING TO HIDE. AMARA ROOSEVELT. My breath catches. My fingers tremble so violently the paper almost slips from my grip. No. No… no, no…

Autumn had never truly believed in keeping secrets, lying, or avoiding reality. She knew she wasn't perfect—she'd told her share of little white lies, hidden things from her aunt, covered up crushes, failed quizzes, even fibbed about where she’d been after curfew back when she used to hang out with Calvin. But this? This was something else entirely. This secret throbbed in her chest like a second heartbeat, heavy and insistent, every time she glanced at the man lying in the spare bedroom. It was the kind of secret that demanded attention, refusing to be buried beneath ordinary worries.

I furrowed my brows, trying my best to make my lie sound real, "—Alessio, whoever that is." A look of recognition flashed in his eyes as he abruptly stood up from his seat, "are you sure?" I nodded, "why? Do you know that Alessio guy?" He didn't reply. Sean turned his back to me and headed towards the door before walking out, closing it behind him. A smirk found it's way onto my face while I relaxed into the uncomfortable chair. He was definitely going to call Alessio to ask him about that, meaning, I wouldn't be there for long.

“You don’t get to stand here and act like a victim, Victoria. You knew exactly what this engagement was.” " Just stop playing the victim here Victoria" he said not turning to look at her. " Oh wow I'm playing the victim you say. Drake you know, I agreed to all this for your image but I won't let you humiliate me. What do you want people to think of le when they find out about your "Secret"? Worst of it all with your office boy" She said her nose flaring in anger. " Leave! I said leave Victoria! I'm not having this conversation with you."

Lily turned and walked out. I watched her leave, then pulled out my phone. I opened a secure line and made a call. "Phoenix? This is Aurora Arkin." It was the first time I had ever spoken my true last name inside Thorne Industries. "Yes. I need to consult you on a unilateral breach of secret investment contracts. Evidence? I have it all. Every contract, every wire transfer." I hung up and opened a hidden wall safe in my office. Inside were all the investment contracts signed under the "Arkin Trust."

In fact they were probably having sex right now in whatever accommodation Munya had booked for them. Rhea then took screenshots of the conversation between Munya and Rhea. She didn’t know exactly how she was going to break the news to Rebecca. Maybe Rebecca wouldn’t believe her. But remembered that she had taken a picture of Munya at Pistachio with Anna. Well, whatever. This woman needed to know what was happening. Rhea: Hello there,

Being a secretary had certainly not been for her. Then there was the scent of her, the taste of her that could drive him to insanity. He licked the edge of his lips and tasted her on him. Wanting more, he brought his mouth to hers again. Gently this time, softly, as if telling a story, as though painting a picture. And for a moment, Isabella forgot to fight, only to push him away aging in disgust when he tried to deepen the kiss, "Isabella." he sighed out like a chant.

He looked up at me and something about his expression made me feel nervous. "Good," he said. "Really good actually. I think I found someone perfect." "That's great," I said and I smiled. "When do they start?" "Monday," he said. "Her name is Karen Tyler." That night, I closed my eyes and tried to fall asleep but my brain wouldn't shut off. I kept thinking about the doctor appointment and the money and Damian's stress and this new secretary he seemed so excited about. Something felt off but I couldn't figure out what it was. It was like a weird feeling in my stomach that wouldn't go away.

She might do something drastic if she knew. "Li, please you must keep it a secret. I have to gather dirt on Alex first and also look for a way to oppose father before I act." ... RAIN My attention shifted from the documents I was reading as my office door swung open. Aaron walked in looking like a wounded beast. Narrowing my eyes, I trailed his movement until he took the seat opposite me. "Did someone replace your skincare with shit. Why do you have that look?" He heaved a sigh and his scowl deepened.

And for someone like me, a man leading a double life, if something is too good and then it’s the worst thing waiting to happen. Proving me right I received an email directly from the source. The little nerdy girl wasn’t as nerdy, boring and submissive as she pretended to be. There’s a wide world of fantasies she’s hiding inside that head of hers which includes, in her words, ‘her sexy-arsehole-overbearing-know-it-all-Boss’. And that’s me. But this isn’t it. I have only uncovered half of what she’s hiding. There’s more lot to my little secretive secretary. And our worlds might not be as different as she thought. Because she came running right through the door she wanted to exit.
