The CEO'S Obsession: Seducing His Secretary
Emma Winters thought she had it all—a loving boyfriend, a promising future, and dreams of happily ever after. But everything shatters when she stumbles upon her boyfriend marrying another woman.
Heartbroken and betrayed, Emma flees to her hometown of Zeden to start over, vowing to rebuild her life on her own terms.
However, fate has other plans. On her first night back, a spontaneous decision leads to a passionate encounter with a mysterious stranger.
What was supposed to be a fleeting escape from her pain becomes far more complicated when she starts her new job—and discovers her new boss is none other than Christopher Jacobs, the enigmatic man she spent the night with.
As Emma struggles to keep her professional boundaries intact, Christopher is relentless in his pursuit, determined to prove that love at first sight exists.
But with a scheming fiancée, a controlling mother, and a vengeful cousin pulling the strings, their love story is anything but simple.
When the stakes escalate and Emma’s life is put in jeopardy, Christopher must make a choice: protect his family’s legacy or risk everything for the woman who holds his heart.
Will Emma and Christopher overcome the odds, or will their love be another casualty of betrayal?

Chapter: Showtime ThreeEmma smiled, reaching for her wine glass. “I was finishing my studies during most of the public events. My father always knew I preferred art over business, and he has been supportive of it,” Emma said, wondering where she got such acting skills from since she knew she was doing really well.“How generous of him,” Claire replied.“So tell me,” Claire continued as she sliced her meat with surgical precision, “what are your intentions with my son?”Emma blinked. “Excuse me?”Christopher let out a quiet groan and reached for his wine. His mother was just too predictable.“It’s a simple question,” Claire said coolly. “Though I already mentioned marriage. But I want to know, what is your own intention? Marriage? A merger? Or is this just another fleeting Zeden romance before you return to the continent?”Emma placed her knife down deliberately. “With all due respect, Mrs. Jacobs, I don’t think any mother wants a fleeting romance for her son. Certainly not me. I love Chris and would be very

Chapter: Showtime TwoEmma’s jaw slackened slightly as they walked through the walkway which was stretched ahead, flanked by manicured gardens, white roses glowing under discreet garden lights. The mansion loomed at the end, an architectural masterpiece of old money and inherited pride. Her eyes widened. “This isn’t a house, Chris. It’s a palace.” Christopher smirked as he wrapped his hands around her waist causing Emma to look at him for a moment before turning her attention back to where they were going. “Practicing,” he said raising both hands in surrender slipping them around her waist again. “You should see the summer estate.” Emma shot him a look, half amused, half terrified. Her fingers nervously smoothed down her dress. “I feel like I should’ve worn something better,” She said, with a sigh. She hadn't expected this, though she knew the Jacobs were wealthy but is this not just too much for one person? She asked herself. “You look perfect. Besides, I choose the dress so relax,” Chris said

Chapter: ShowtimeThe salon smelled of rosewater and lavender, the gentle sound of running water and faint jazz music playing in the background. As soon as they entered, heads turned. Murmurs followed them like shadows.“Isn’t that Christopher Jacobs and the lady from the trending photo?” One woman asked another.“She’s the one… she looks different in person.”Emma felt the weight of a hundred stares. She wanted to sink into the floor.Chris, however, was unbothered.He stepped up to the receptionist and spoke confidently, “She needs a light transformation. Clean glam—think elegance, not overdone. Keep her natural beauty, just elevate it.”The stylist beamed. “We can absolutely do that, sir.”As Emma was led to a chair, Chris took a seat nearby, legs crossed, observing. When the stylist leaned in to clean a smudge from Emma’s lip, Chris rose without a word, walked over, and gently reached out with a tissue.“Hold still,” he said, eyes locked with hers.She blinked, stunned as his thumb grazed her chin.

Chapter: Why Me?The low hum of the car engine filled the silence between them, but Emma’s mind was anything but quiet. She sat beside Christopher, arms crossed loosely, eyes flicking occasionally to his perfect profile as the car cruised through the heart of Zeden.He looked too comfortable. Too calm. Like none of this—the lies, the drama, the deception—bothered him in the slightest.She, on the other hand, felt like her heart was sitting in her throat.“You really think I need a makeover?” she asked after a beat, attempting to keep her voice neutral.Chris glanced at her and smirked, his gaze sweeping over her face and styled hair. “You’re beautiful, Emma. But my mother… she’s a different breed. She reads appearances like résumés. A little polish won’t hurt.”Emma scoffed lightly but didn’t argue. She turned to stare out the window, watching as the city blurred past in streaks of white and gold.Still, something gnawed at her. Her thoughts swirled around a question she couldn’t hold back anymore.“W

Chapter: Are You Stalking Me?The rooftop venue was nothing short of stunning. Elegant white drapes fluttered in the soft breeze, fairy lights twinkled above like stars, and the scent of fresh roses floated in the air. Ivy stood near the buffet table, clipboard in hand, mentally checking off the final touches.She'd done a good job, no, an amazing job. The party was elegant, polished, and timed down to the second. Whoever this Ethan guy was, he was about to be blown away. Not that she cared. It wasn’t her business who the birthday boy was. She’d been hired by a “friend” of his who wanted to throw a surprise party. They’d paid well and upfront, and that was all that mattered. She just doesn't go around snooping about too much information concerning her clients.She adjusted a floral centerpiece on one of the tables and turned to scan the crowd just as a familiar voice floated toward her from behind.“Ivy? Told you we’d see each other again.”She froze immediately she heard the voice.Her brows furrowed slightly as

Chapter: Only Just StartedIn the room after taking her bath, Emma stood in front of her mirror, fingers hovering indecisively over her wardrobe.She’d told herself, even reminded herself severally that what they were about to do wasn’t a real date. It was a business arrangement. A favor she agreed to under unusual, circumstances. So why did her heart pound as if she was preparing for something more?She sighed and finally reached for a soft, dusty blue blouse one she hadn't worn since Liam's betrayal.Saying his name doesn't hurt as much again, she thought as she pulled the blouse on.It hugged her figure just enough to be flattering but still conservative. She paired it with a high-waisted black skirt that flared slightly at the bottom, brushing against her knees. On her feet, she slipped into nude heels—low enough to be practical, yet still elegant.Her hair, she left down, brushing it into soft waves that framed her face. A hint of peach blush on her cheeks, a touch of gloss, and she was done. Not too much
