His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter thirty two
Ophelia’s POV The clicking of my heels against the polished floor echoed in the quiet hallway as I walked toward Aaron’s office. It was late in the afternoon, and the office building was quieter than usual. Most of the staff had gone home for the day, but I knew Aaron wouldn’t leave until his work was done, regardless of the hour. I had gotten used to this routine, though every day felt like I was walking on eggshells. Aaron’s mood was unpredictable, and I had learned to brace myself for whatever harsh tone or order might come next. But even in his cold, calculating demeanor, there was a strange sense of reliance on me now. Not that he would ever admit it aloud. As I entered his office, he was seated behind his massive desk, papers scattered in front of him. He looked like a man who hadn’t slept in days, his sharp jawline tense, his eyes bloodshot from too many late nights. Yet there was still an undeniable aura of authority around him, something magnetic that made everyone who st

Aaron’s POV I stared out of my office window, the city sprawling beneath me in all its noisy, chaotic glory. From up here, it all seemed so distant, so far removed from the reality of the work I had to do. But that’s the way I liked it. I didn’t want to be part of the hustle below, caught up in the trivialities that most people obsessed over. No, I had a bigger mission: to expand Donovan Corporation, to solidify my name in every boardroom and every business deal, and to ensure that no one stood in my way. It was a task that demanded all my focus. All my energy. There was no time for distractions—especially not the kind Ophelia Lewis brought with her every time she walked into my office. She’d changed since she first arrived. I couldn’t deny that. Gone was the fire of revenge, the bitterness that had burned in her eyes when she first joined my team. In its place was a calm determination, a woman who knew exactly what she wanted. But the change hadn’t gone unnoticed, either. She’d

Aaron’s POV I glanced over the reports on my desk, my mind running at full speed, analyzing every detail, and calculating every move. Donovan Corporation was growing, but not fast enough for my liking. It was never enough. As always, I pushed for more, demanding better, faster, and more efficient outcomes from everyone who worked under me. Ophelia stood by my office door, her presence a subtle, almost imperceptible distraction. I had come to rely on her efficiency, even if she wasn’t what I had originally envisioned when hiring her. She was competent, sharp, and had an aura of determination that, whether she realized it or not, impressed me. But I wasn’t about to let her know that. She was just an assistant—nothing more. “Mr. Donovan,” she said, her voice steady as she entered the room, clutching a file in her hands. “The board meeting is in thirty minutes. The documents you requested have been compiled.” I glanced up from the paperwork and met her gaze. There was something in he

Aaron’s POV The office was quiet, save for the soft hum of the city below filtering through the glass walls. Late evenings were when I felt most productive. The interruptions were minimal, and I could focus on the real work—the work that kept Donovan Corporation leagues ahead of everyone else. Still, my thoughts wandered. Ophelia Lewis. She’d managed to burrow her way into the corners of my mind like an uninvited guest who refused to leave. She was competent—more than competent. But there was something else about her that kept pulling at my attention, something I couldn’t quite define. I tapped my pen against the desk, staring at the report she’d delivered earlier. Flawless, as I’d expected. Yet, the conversation we’d had lingered more than it should have. “Not everyone is your enemy.” Her words played over and over in my head. Naïve, I’d thought at the time. But there was a conviction in her voice, one that made me pause. Not because I agreed with her, but because it reminded m

Ophelia’s POV The morning started like any other. I arrived at Donovan Corporation precisely fifteen minutes before the official start of the workday, armed with a stack of documents and a cup of coffee I barely had the energy to finish. The receptionist offered me a tight-lipped smile, which I returned before stepping into the elevator. Aaron Donovan—Mr. Donovan, I reminded myself—was already in his office. I could tell by the way his shadow moved across the frosted glass. Even when I arrived early, he was always earlier, his dedication unmatched and, frankly, exhausting. Walking into his office was like stepping into a war zone. Papers cluttered the desk, his phone buzzed incessantly, and there was a tension in the air that seemed to hum whenever he was deep in thought. He sat at his desk, his jaw set in a way that told me the day had already thrown him a curveball. “Good morning, Mr. Donovan,” I greeted, setting the coffee on his desk and organizing the papers without waiting

Ophelia’s POV Each day with Mr. Donovan was a study in contrasts. He was efficient yet exasperating, brilliant yet brooding. And then there was me: determined to keep my composure, even when he managed to push all the wrong buttons. The morning began as it always did, with me juggling a barrage of tasks before I’d even had my second cup of coffee. By the time I entered his office, I was already mentally preparing for whatever fresh challenge he’d throw my way. “Miss Lewis, you’re late,” he said without looking up from his tablet. I glanced at the clock on his wall. “It’s 7:58, Mr. Donovan. Technically, I’m early.” He raised an eyebrow, still not looking at me. “Early isn’t early enough when we’re working on the Crestline merger. I need you in here before I arrive.” Because that’s reasonable, I thought, biting my tongue. Instead, I set the files I’d prepared on his desk. “The final revisions for the merger presentation. I’ve also cross-checked the legal notes with the external te

Ophelia’s POV The office felt quieter than usual the next morning, but I knew it wasn’t because of a lack of activity. Aaron Donovan’s mood dictated the atmosphere, and today, it seemed… restrained. Not the cold indifference he usually exuded, but a focused quiet that unnerved me. I avoided his office for as long as I could, burying myself in emails and reports, yet my mind kept drifting back to dinner last night. It wasn’t just the unexpected invitation—it was the Aaron I saw beneath the ruthless exterior. For the first time, he had let me see his humanity, even if only for a moment. By noon, I couldn’t avoid him any longer. He’d summoned me to his office with a one-word email: Now. When I stepped inside, he was seated behind his desk, eyes fixed on his laptop screen. “Mr. Donovan,” I said, keeping my tone professional. “Close the door,” he said without looking up. I did as he asked, stepping forward hesitantly. He finally looked up, his piercing eyes locking onto mine. “Sit.” I

Ophelia’s POV The next few days passed in a blur of reports, meetings, and Aaron’s relentless demands. He was back to his usual self: curt, exacting, and impossible to please. Yet, there was something different—a crack in his veneer that revealed itself in fleeting moments. A brush of his hand as he handed me a document, a lingering glance during a meeting, or a subtle softness in his voice when he addressed me directly. But he never overstepped. Aaron Donovan was a man who thrived on control, and it was clear he wasn’t ready to relinquish any part of it—not even his feelings. That morning, I found myself in the middle of a particularly hectic schedule. Aaron had tasked me with organizing a last-minute meeting with international partners while also preparing a detailed analysis of competitor strategies. My desk was a minefield of sticky notes, files, and my half-drunk coffee. “Miss Lewis,” Aaron’s voice called from his office. I sighed, setting down the highlighter I’d been usin

His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 64
Ophelia’s POV The tension between Aaron and me had reached an unspoken truce, though the dynamics of our relationship were far from simple. Each day in his office was a chess match of emotions and professionalism, neither of us willing to make the first move. Aaron remained as sharp and demanding as ever, yet there were cracks in his icy demeanor—moments that felt too intimate for the boundaries we claimed to maintain. That morning, I was deep in the throes of a particularly frustrating task. Aaron had requested a detailed analysis of prospective mergers, and the data was a labyrinth of numbers and trends. I stared at my screen, rubbing my temples as the words blurred together. “You look like you’re about to throw that laptop out the window.” His voice startled me, and I looked up to see Aaron standing in my doorway, arms crossed, an amused glint in his eye. “Not out the window,” I muttered. “But maybe into the coffee machine.” He stepped into my office, glancing at the jumble o
His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 63
Ophelia’s POV The tension between Aaron and me was becoming unbearable. Each passing day felt like a tightrope walk. We kept our interactions strictly professional, but there was an undercurrent—a simmering attraction neither of us acknowledged. I was drowning myself in work, hoping it would numb the confusing emotions that surfaced whenever Aaron was near. The merger had turned into a whirlwind of meetings, legal reviews, and negotiations. My calendar was packed from dawn till dusk, leaving little room for anything else. But the busier I stayed, the more aware I became of Aaron’s presence. It wasn’t just his commanding tone or his sharp intellect. It was the subtle things: the way his eyes crinkled slightly when he was deep in thought, the quiet moments when I’d catch him watching me, and the rare times when his icy exterior softened. One particularly chaotic morning, I found myself rushing through the office corridors with a stack of documents balanced precariously in my arms.

Ophelia’s POV Working closely with Aaron Donovan was beginning to feel like playing a dangerous game. The man had a way of peeling back my defenses without even trying, making me question everything I thought I knew about him—and myself. The day started as most did, with Aaron’s sharp tone barking instructions the moment I stepped into his office. “Miss Lewis, I need the quarterly reports from division heads by noon,” he said without looking up from his laptop. “Of course, Mr. Donovan,” I replied. “And schedule a meeting with the marketing team this afternoon,” he added, his fingers flying over the keyboard. “Understood,” I said, already jotting down notes. His demands weren’t new, but there was a tension in the air that felt different. Over the past few weeks, Aaron’s demeanor toward me had softened in small, almost imperceptible ways. He wasn’t outright kind—he was still the same demanding, no-nonsense boss—but there were moments when his gaze lingered too long or his voice di

Ophelia’s POV Working for Aaron Donovan was like trying to navigate a storm in the middle of the ocean—unpredictable, intense, and always teetering on the edge of chaos. Despite the exhaustion that came with the long hours and relentless pace, there was something invigorating about it. I thrived on the challenge, but Aaron… was a force unto himself. One moment, he was cold and calculating, barking orders like a drill sergeant. The next, he’d show glimpses of humanity so fleeting they left me questioning if I’d imagined them. Today was no different. “Miss Lewis,” his deep voice snapped me out of my thoughts as I stepped into his office. “Yes, Mr. Donovan?” “I need the revised merger documents on my desk in twenty minutes,” he said, not bothering to look up from his laptop. “Of course,” I replied, already turning on my heel. “Oh, and Miss Lewis,” he called after me. I paused, glancing over my shoulder. “Double-check the legal clauses this time. I don’t have the patience for amate

Ophelia’s POV Mornings in Aaron Donovan’s office always started the same way: precise, efficient, and intense. I had barely settled into my chair when he barked out his first order of the day. “Miss Lewis, I need the quarterly reports from R&D on my desk before my nine o’clock meeting.” “Good morning to you too, Mr. Donovan,” I muttered under my breath, already reaching for the files. “Did you say something?” His sharp gaze flicked toward me. “Not a thing,” I replied, forcing a neutral expression as I walked into his office. His desk was as pristine as ever, the only sign of his presence being the faint scent of his cologne that lingered in the air. I placed the reports in front of him, stepping back as his eyes scanned the first page. It always amazed me how quickly he absorbed information, dissecting complex data in mere minutes. “You reorganized this,” he said after a moment, his voice neutral but with a trace of curiosity. “I thought it would be easier to navigate that wa

Ophelia’s POV The next event came quicker than I expected, leaving me scrambling to prepare. Aaron’s instructions were precise but vague. “Formal, but not overly flashy. I’ll have the car pick you up at seven.” That was all he’d said before disappearing back into his office. As I stood before the mirror, adjusting the sleek black dress I’d chosen, I wondered what exactly tonight entailed. My duties as Aaron’s assistant were never straightforward, and the boundaries between professional and personal were increasingly blurry. The car arrived promptly, and the driver greeted me with a polite nod before holding the door open. Settling into the leather seat, I couldn’t help but notice how meticulously everything was maintained—Aaron’s influence was everywhere, even in the smallest details. Aaron was already inside the venue when I arrived. The grand ballroom was filled with an air of quiet sophistication, the kind that only money and power could conjure. Crystal chandeliers cast a wa
