His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter Forty Six
Ophelia’s POV It’s been days since the meeting, and yet, the tension between Mr. Donovan and me still lingers in the air. It’s like a constant hum, vibrating just beneath the surface, threatening to break through every time our eyes meet. But I can’t afford to acknowledge it. Not now, not when I have so much at stake. Mr. Donovan remains an enigma to me. At times, he seems cold, almost distant, but then there are moments when his gaze softens when he looks at me with something unreadable behind his eyes. I’ve worked with many bosses, but there’s something different about him. There’s a layer to him, buried deep beneath the surface, that calls to me in ways I can’t quite explain. It’s frustrating. I don’t need this distraction. As his assistant, it’s my job to stay detached, to focus solely on my tasks, and to be efficient and reliable. But Mr. Donovan is… complicated. Today, as I walk into his office with a stack of files in my hands, I can’t help but notice how his eyes flicker u

Aaron’s POV The silence in my office is almost suffocating. The only sound is the faint hum of the air conditioning and the clattering of my keyboard as I type out yet another strategy plan for a merger that’s been dragging on for weeks. My mind, however, is not focused on the numbers or the deadlines. It’s preoccupied with the one person I can’t seem to stop thinking about: Ophelia. I had told myself this would be just another business arrangement. Another assistant to help streamline the chaos that often surrounds me. But there’s something about Ophelia that unsettles me, something that makes it harder to maintain the usual detachment I’ve held with every other employee I’ve ever worked with. When she’s around, it’s as if my thoughts are constantly pulled in her direction, like a magnetic force I can’t control. Her presence is quiet, yet undeniably powerful. She’s efficient and sharp, and even though I try to ignore it, there’s an underlying strength in her that draws me in. I

Ophelia’s POV I stand in front of the mirror, my reflection staring back at me with a mix of exhaustion and resolve. Another day, another moment spent pretending that I’m fine, pretending that I don’t feel the weight of the world pressing down on me. But even the most polished facade can’t hide the truth, and the truth is—I’m tired. I sigh and run my hands through my hair, smoothing out the slight frizz that always seems to appear at the most inconvenient times. I’ve never been one to focus on my appearance too much, but lately, I’ve been doing everything I can to keep myself together. I need to be strong. I can’t afford to let my guard down. Not when everything is at stake. I’m just an assistant, right? That’s what I keep telling myself. I’m just here to do a job, to bide my time until I can get what’s mine back. The company. My father’s legacy. I can’t lose sight of that, no matter how much my feelings start to get tangled up in the mess of it all. I glance at the clock on the

Aaron’s POV I watch as Ophelia walks into my office, the soft click of the door behind her signaling her presence. She doesn’t say anything, just stands there for a moment, and for a second, I wonder what’s going through her mind. I know better than to assume, but I can’t help it. There’s something about the way she carries herself, something that makes me uneasy in ways I can’t explain. I’ve never been one to think much about the people I work with. They’re tools, necessary instruments to help me get things done, and once they’ve served their purpose, they’re disposable. But Ophelia… She’s different. Not that I’d ever admit it aloud. I never let myself get too close to anyone, least of all her. Her presence in my office has become a constant, reminder of a world I’m trying to control. The moment she stepped into my life, my already tight grip on my company started slipping. The way she looks at me, the way she pushes my boundaries, challenges everything I thought I knew about m

Aaron’s POV The office is quiet. Too quiet. The hum of the air conditioner, the faint tapping of my pen against the desk — all of it feels like noise, a distraction from the thoughts I can’t seem to shut out. I sit at my desk, staring at the stack of papers in front of me, but I’m not reading. Not really. My mind keeps drifting back to her. Ophelia. It’s been a few days since our last interaction, and I can’t seem to shake the feeling that things are different. That something is shifting between us, even though neither of us has acknowledged it. Her professional composure, that icy distance she maintains—it’s starting to crack, just a little. And it bothers me more than it should. She’s my assistant, nothing more. That’s all she is, and all she’ll ever be. But every time she enters the room, every time she speaks, there’s this pulse of something I can’t define. She doesn’t make it easy either. She keeps her eyes lowered, her posture perfect, her movements precise. But there’s so

Ophelia’s POV The tension between us had always been palpable. Aaron Donovan was a man who commanded respect and fear, but as days turned into weeks, my perspective of him began to shift. It wasn’t sudden, nor was it dramatic, but it was undeniable. The cracks in his armor revealed glimpses of a man who wasn’t entirely the ruthless businessman the world believed him to be. Our days were filled with terse conversations, professional jabs, and an undercurrent of something neither of us dared to name. Today was no different, but it was the first time I noticed just how much his presence affected me. The day had started with the usual chaos. A high-stakes negotiation had gone south, and Aaron was in one of his moods. He snapped orders left and right, his deep voice reverberating through the office. By now, I had learned to brace myself for the storm, but I was also no longer afraid to push back when necessary. “Miss Lewis,” he called sharply, standing at his desk, his piercing eyes lo

Ophelia’s POV The days at Donovan Corporation had begun to blur together, a whirlwind of schedules, meetings, and Aaron Donovan’s impossible demands. Yet, despite the exhausting routine, I found myself thriving in ways I hadn’t expected. The position, though grueling, was a distraction I desperately needed—a way to focus my energy away from my past and toward a future that felt ever so slightly in my control. Aaron remained as ruthless as ever, his expectations of perfection looming over every task I performed. But the tension between us had started to shift, crackling with an intensity I couldn’t ignore. His sharp commands felt less biting, his glances lingered just a second too long, and there was something about the way his voice softened in unguarded moments that unsettled me. I couldn’t figure him out, and the uncertainty was maddening. One evening, after a particularly chaotic day of back-to-back meetings, I stayed late to sort through a mountain of paperwork Aaron had hand

His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 71
Aaron’s POV I’ve always prided myself on my ability to compartmentalize. Business stays in one box, emotions in another, each neatly tucked away where they belong. It’s what has kept Donovan Corporation thriving in a cutthroat industry. It’s what’s kept me sane. But ever since Ophelia entered my life, the lines have started to blur. I stood in my office, staring out at the city skyline. The lights of downtown glittered like scattered diamonds, their brilliance dulled by the weight in my chest. My mind, however, wasn’t on the view or even the mountain of paperwork that awaited me. It was on her. The way she’d looked at me last night, her eyes filled with a mix of vulnerability and defiance. The way her voice wavered when she admitted she was scared, mirroring the same fear I’ve tried so hard to deny. I hated it. Not her—but the weakness she brought out in me. The part of me that wanted to protect her, to shield her from the world, even if it meant breaking the walls I’d spent year
His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 70
Ophelia’s POV The kiss haunted me. I couldn’t stop replaying it, over and over, no matter how hard I tried to shove it to the back of my mind. The warmth of Aaron’s lips, the intensity in his touch—it was as if he had unraveled every piece of armor I had meticulously put in place. It felt wrong, too raw, too dangerous. But at the same time, it had awakened something in me I thought I’d buried for good. I stared blankly at the spreadsheets on my laptop, trying to focus. My apartment felt like a cage, each quiet second amplifying the storm in my chest. I hadn’t seen Aaron since that night, hadn’t even heard from him. Part of me was grateful. It gave me space to think, to figure out how I could move forward without letting emotions derail my plan. But another part of me—a foolish, naive part—felt disappointed. The sound of Caleb’s laughter pulled me from my thoughts. I glanced toward the living room, where my son sat cross-legged on the floor, playing with his favorite set of blocks.
His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 69
Aaron’s POV The office was unusually quiet tonight. Even the constant hum of the city outside seemed to have dimmed, as if it understood the weight pressing down on my shoulders. My work had always been my escape, my sanctuary. But lately, that sanctuary felt less like a fortress and more like a cage. And it was all because of her. Ophelia Lewis. From the moment she walked into my office, she disrupted everything I’d carefully built. At first, I thought it was her insolence, her knack for challenging me in ways no one else dared. But it was more than that. She was unpredictable, and that unpredictability was both maddening and intoxicating. I couldn’t stop thinking about her. It was infuriating. Leaning back in my chair, I stared at the city skyline, the lights glittering like scattered diamonds. My reflection stared back at me from the glass, a reminder of the man I’d become: cold, detached, ruthless. There was no room in my life for distractions, least of all one that came wit
His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 68
Ophelia’s POV It had been a week since Aaron’s near-apology, and life at Donovan Corporation continued at its relentless pace. Aaron maintained his usual cold, calculated demeanor during the day, and I worked tirelessly to ensure everything flowed smoothly. Still, there were cracks in his fortress, moments where the man behind the ruthless businessman slipped through, and I couldn’t stop myself from noticing. Even if I wanted to, which I didn’t. Aaron Donovan occupied my mind far more than I was comfortable admitting. Each day, I told myself I’d keep my distance, focus solely on my goals, and avoid personal entanglements. Each day, I failed. It was late one evening when my carefully constructed wall began to crumble. I was still in my office, organizing files for Aaron’s upcoming meeting, when the intercom buzzed. “Miss Lewis,” came his familiar voice, sharp yet laced with something I couldn’t quite place. “Yes, Mr. Donovan?” “My office. Now.” I sighed, brushing a stray strand o
His Sassy Secretary: Lia’s Revenge Chapter 67
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.
