From Spy to Wife: The CEO’s Pretend Marriage Chapter 7: Late Night Sneaking
“Is she asleep now?” Lennox whispered, his breath warm near my ear.I looked at Mia, who was curled up between us like a tiny kitten. She was breathing slow and steady, holding onto my nightgown.“Yeah, I think so,” I whispered back, gently moving her hand off me.Lennox slowly sat up, careful not to shake the bed too much. The moonlight made his chest kind of glow. I tried not to look, but wow... this man had muscles.“You should go back to your room,” he said softly, not really looking at me. “She moves a lot when she sleeps.”I nodded and carefully got out of bed, very aware that my nightgown was very short. I could feel him watching me, and my face felt hot. This nightgown barely covered anything.“Goodnight,” I said, pulling the fabric down as much as I could.“Goodnight, Cathy,” he said, voice a little rough.I rushed back to my room and closed the door with a quiet sigh. My heart was beating fast. I didn’t know if it was because it was awkward… or something else.I checked my p

“Do we really need all this?” I asked, staring at the thick contract on Lennox’s desk. After he offered me the job of being Mia’s “mom figure,” I thought there’d be some papers to sign, but this thing looked like it could stop a bullet.We were in his private office at Hart Enterprises. It was all glass and shiny stuff, with a killer view of the city. Way fancier than the regular offices I saw on my first day. The place had real art on the walls and furniture that probably cost more than everything I owned.Lennox looked up from his laptop, all serious like always. “Yes, it’s important. This isn’t just babysitting, Ms. Reed.”“I thought we agreed you’d call me Cathy,” I said while flipping through the pages. “Especially since I’ll be living in your house.”He sighed and shut his laptop. “Right. Cathy.”I skimmed through the contract, trying to stay cool while my heart was racing. There were non-disclosure things, salary details (which were very generous), stuff about living at his pla

“You look really pretty, Cathy!” Mia said as she ran down the stairs. Her face lit up when she saw me standing in the hallway.I smoothed out my plain blue dress, feeling weirdly nervous. It was my second time at the Hart house, but tonight felt different. Maybe it was because Lennox was kind of avoiding me after that kiss… or maybe the mission was just getting tricky. Either way, here I was, back again—just two days after I "forgot" my bracelet.“Thanks, sweetie,” I said, crouching down to her level. “You look super cute too.”She spun around in her purple dress, smiling big. “Daddy said we should dress nice for dinner today. He cooked! He never cooks!”I raised my eyebrows. “Really? I wouldn’t have guessed that.”“Ms. Reed,” Lennox’s voice came from behind her. He was standing in the doorway to the dining room, wearing a simple button-up shirt and looking kind of awkward. The air between us felt… weird. “Thanks for joining us again.”I stood up and gave him a small smile. “Thanks fo

“Wait,” I whispered, pulling back from Lennox’s kiss. My heart was beating really fast, and I could still feel his lips on mine. I didn’t expect that at all. Not tonight.He looked confused as I stepped away, putting some space between us in the dim hallway. I had to think fast. I needed a reason to come back later. While moving, I quietly took off my bracelet and let it fall on the carpet. It was too dark for him to notice.“I’m sorry, Mr. Hart, but I’m not... I’m not into that kind of thing,” I said, trying to make my voice sound shaky. Pretending to be unsure was easy right now – this mission was getting way too messy.Lennox’s face changed fast. The soft, sad look was gone. He looked embarrassed, then serious again like always. “I’m sorry, Ms. Reed. That was inappropriate. I’ve had some whiskey… I wasn’t thinking straight.”It got really awkward. I pushed my hair back and glanced at my wrist. No bracelet. Good – it worked. “I should go now.”“Of course,” he said, looking away. “Da

“Hey, got any spare change?” someone said in a rough voice as I waited outside the coffee shop. I was just hanging around, waiting for Lennox’s driver to show up.I looked down and saw a messy-looking guy sitting on the ground. His clothes were dirty and his hair was a mess. Then I realized—it was Shadowbird under all that dirt and the fake beard. She was good—really good at disguises.“Sorry, I don’t carry cash,” I said loudly so people around could hear. Then I lowered my voice. “What are you doing here? This isn’t part of the plan.”Shadowbird moved a little closer, still acting like a homeless person. “Just making sure you're prepared. Hart's house is like Fort Knox—CCTV everywhere, armed security, and likely secret cameras just for you.”I acted like I was checking my phone and spoke without moving my lips too much. “Yeah, I guessed that. Guys like him don’t trust easily.”“This isn't just paranoia. Our intel says he's been extra cautious lately,” she said, looking around. “He mi

Everything felt like it stopped for a second.Lennox Hart looked at me, then at his daughter. His face changed from surprised to… something colder. The little girl’s words were still hanging in the air: “Is she mommy?”“No, Mia. She’s not,” he said, his voice sharp and cold. He picked her up and turned her away from me. But he kept staring at me, like he was trying to figure something out.I stood there, not sure what to do, holding my bag tight. This wasn’t how it was supposed to go. We weren’t supposed to meet like this. Not yet.“I’m really sorry about that,” I said quickly as I stepped out of the elevator. “I’m Catherine Reed. I work with Gabriel Chen from Nexus Technologies.” I held out my hand like this was just a normal business thing.“Why are you here?” Lennox didn’t shake my hand. He just stared at my face like he was trying to figure me out. It was kind of intense, but I’d handled worse before.“Mr. Chen asked me to bring over some materials for your meeting next week,” I s

“Do we really have to do this now, Shadowbird? Midnight meetings are seriously getting old,” I said with a sigh as I sat in the cold metal chair across from my boss.The room felt like a freezer—typical for this secret basement place. I rubbed my arms and wondered why spy places always had to feel like Antarctica. Maybe they thought cold air made us smarter or something?Shadowbird didn’t even look up from her tablet. “Nice of you to show up, Phantom.”Ugh. I hated that name. It made me sound like a ghost or some weird legend. But I guess that’s the point. I sneak in, grab the info, and vanish. No mess, no drama. I’ve done twenty missions in four years. Never failed. Never slipped up.“This better be worth dragging me away from my Netflix binge,” I said, leaning back in the chair. “It was just getting good.”Shadowbird finally looked up and gave me one of her classic cold stares. “When do you ever get to the good part, Vale? Your apartment’s emptier than your love life.”Oof. That one
