My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 10
I rubbed my tingling ear. "Yeah, must have forgotten them.""Stay at my place.""What??"My eyes went wide as my imagination ran wild.He doesn't mean...?No way, I'm a proper lady!Lucas chuckled, tapping my forehead. "Get your mind out of the gutter. Just for one night."I forced myself back to reality, mumbling, "Thanks Mr. Miller, but you have a fiancée. It wouldn't be appropriate."Lucas raised an eyebrow. "Fiancée? Since when do I have a fiancée?""That beautiful woman who came to the office today."His expression went blank for a moment, then he laughed. "That was my mom. She loves playing pranks like that. Last time she visited my dad's office, she introduced herself as his mistress. Nearly ruined his reputation.""..."Your mom is... that playful?I was totally confused.Lucas video called his mom right in front of me before I believed him.Just like that, my mood skyrocketed!With no fiancée in the picture, my dark mood vanished instantly, my eyes crinkling wi
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 11
My dad's booming voice filled the entire room through the speaker.!!Lucas's head snapped up, his eyes razor-sharp - like he was ready to execute me on the spot.My survival instincts kicked in immediately. "Dad, stop joking around! I'm a proper lady - just courier the key to me, bye!"I rushed to hang up before my dear father could say anything else incriminating."Dating, huh?”Lucas's tone was calm, but the words came through gritted teeth, making my scalp tingle.The atmosphere at the breakfast table turned icy. I gave a nervous laugh."Ha, my dad's just kidding. I'm way too dedicated to my job to let romance get in the way!"Look at that work ethic!Lucas just nodded expressionlessly, elegantly wiped his mouth, and stood up."I thought I should take things slow with you, but clearly that approach isn't working."Huh?I froze with the spoon in my mouth, completely confused.What's he talking about?"Because you need to be taught a lesson."Me: "???"Though I didn'

I shook my head, feeling a bit nostalgic. "I just can't wrap my head around it. The person who secretly brought me boba and medicine back in college—how did you end up like this?" James clearly didn’t want to revisit the past. He sighed, annoyed, "Because that wasn’t even me. I just want the letter of forgiveness. Can you give it to me?" What? It wasn’t him? I froze, my face draining of color. It was because of those gestures that I chose him. And now I find out it wasn’t even him. Then who was it? "It was me." Lucas’s voice snapped me back to reality. I was completely taken aback, unable to process it. He led me to a quiet corner, his tone gentle. "It was me. Although you mistakenly thought it was someone else, it's fine. At least now, you're mine." —Lucas's POV:During a university club activity, I fell head over heels for a younger girl. Her name was Hannah Sanders. She was absolutely stunning, always wearing this adorably goofy smile, not real
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 1
After pulling an all-nighter to meet my boss's insane deadline, I obviously overslept the next morning.Since HR would dock my pay the same whether I was 10 minutes or an hour late, I figured I might as well treat my exhausted self to a proper breakfast.I strolled into a local diner and ordered some hash browns and eggs without a care in the world.The place was packed, but I managed to grab a table. I was in no hurry, just adding some hot sauce to my breakfast.You know what they say - breakfast is the most important meal of the day.While eating, I casually glanced around the restaurant.Then I stopped mid-chew.Wait, what?That guy over there... with the movie star looks - somewhere between young Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt in his prime... why does he seem familiar?Isn't that suspiciously like Lucas Miller, my taskmaster of a boss who kept me working until 3 AM?I looked harder.Oh no, it is him!Just as I was about to make a run for it, nearly choking on my scalding hot
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 2
First one to finish gets to escape! I was doing okay, but Lucas was struggling hilariously with his oatmeal and a fork.He could barely get any food on it - just pushing it around uselessly.It was like trying to eat soup with chopsticks - completely ridiculous.After what seemed like an eternity of hesitation, I heard Lucas quietly ask the server if there were any spoons.The cheerful server called back loudly, "There's a whole container of them right by that pretty lady's elbow - help yourself, handsome!""...""..."Several seconds of dead silence fell over our table.Should I pass him one?Suddenly, from the corner of my eye, I saw him pick up his bowl with grim determination and chug the entire thing in one go.What a madman!While I sat there stunned, Lucas coolly wiped his burned, reddened lips.Then he got up and bolted - like the devil himself was chasing him.I made it to the office half an hour later, running like my life depended on it.Surely I must have be
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 3
He was the only one who'd ever pursued me.For two years of dating, even though his attitude completely changed from when he was chasing me, he was decent enough. Just super cheap - our usual date was six-dollar tacos.My love-struck brain convinced me he was just being frugal and down-to-earth.Then right after graduation, this jerk lucked into a corporate job and started climbing the ladder.As they say, the first thing you do after making it is dump your girlfriend.So the day after he got his results, I got dumped.This scumbag’s excuse? His boss's daughter could help his career more, and I was too poor.I just smiled, pulled out the sports car keys I'd planned to give him.While he stood there gaping, I slapped him across the face and drove off in my car like a boss.I keep my spending low and don't flaunt my wealth or rely on family connections, but that doesn't mean we're not loaded.My dad's the richest guy in the city - not that I tell people that.Who needs someone
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 4
James didn't try to stop me this time, but his pale face twisted in a way that made my skin crawl.!!Jeez, has he turned into some kind of stalker in the past six months?Just then, I caught a blur of movement in my peripheral vision.Lucas stepped in front of me, his tall frame creating a barrier between me and James, his eyes razor-sharp. His cologne - something expensive and crisp - drifted over me.Oddly enough, it made me feel safe.James finally backed off, muttering that he'd be back.What is he, a cartoon villain?I gave him the finger with zero regrets.No matter how tough he acts, he's just a chihuahua compared to the big bad wolf Lucas Miller."Enjoying the show?""Uh, thanks for that, Mr. Miller!"I quickly thanked him, pretending to brush invisible lint off his designer suit, laying the gratitude on thick.Maybe my workaholic boss isn't so bad - I'll complain about him less from now on.Lucas gave me an odd look, his voice slightly rough. "Ex-boyfriend?"I
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 5
Somebody please tell me why the man from my dream is in my building's elevator??The ride down thirteen floors had never felt longer.Pure torture.Absolute torture.My toes were curling so hard from embarrassment they could've dented the floor.When did Lucas move? I snuck glances at the elegant man beside me, trying to figure it out.Was he the one moving in upstairs yesterday?Typical rich CEO, switching homes like changing clothes.He must have noticed my constant peeking because he turned to me and asked, "Had breakfast?"His handsome face stunned me for a second before I shook my head."Not yet.""Let's go grab some together."Before I knew it, we were sitting in the same diner as yesterday morning.Watching Lucas calmly order oatmeal, I remembered his casual outfit yesterday - basketball shorts, old t-shirt, and slides. The office ladies' perfect image of him would've shattered if they'd seen that.Wait... breakfast?A ridiculous thought hit me.Did Lucas move

"You're the billionaire's daughter! Please help me, I can't go on!"Great, now he's treating me like his personal ATM.Didn't think of me when he was climbing the ladder, but now that he's in trouble, suddenly I matter?I laughed bitterly, hitting him again with my bag."Get lost. Not my problem."I turned to leave, cold as ice.Behind me, James suddenly went quiet, his voice dropping low. "Hannah, you really won't help me?"I paused, an uneasy feeling creeping in.Turning back to yell at him, I saw his face.Gone was his usual polite demeanor, replaced by something twisted and unhinged that made my teeth chatter.James was losing it.And the most dangerous dog is the one that doesn't bark before it bites.I need to run!I reached into my bag, quickly dialing 911.Sure enough, James lunged at me.Despite being prepared, I lost my balance and fell. I watched helplessly as he approached, his eyes wild.What should I do?What can I do?Lucas is off with his beautiful fia

Was he planning something else to torture me?I tensed up nervously.After what felt like forever, he sighed, his voice low and rough, "Come on, let's get dinner."Yes!Maybe this slave driver has a heart after all!The office rumors about Lucas and me kept growing.I got tired of explaining, while Lucas acted like nothing was happening.Completely unbothered.Something clicked in my mind.Given how particular he is, if he really minded these dating rumors, he would've shut them down immediately.He wouldn't just let them spread.Maybe...He doesn't mind being linked to me?Combined with Jane's constant hints, I started believing Lucas might actually like me.Wow. What a mind-blowing thought.Lucas Miller likes me.I got a bit cocky thinking about it.Lucas Miller - our university's golden boy, two years ahead of me but legendary on campus.Every girl's dream guy.I wasn't immune either, but I never thought I was in his league. Just admired him from afar, never brave
My Boss’s Secret Crush on Me Chapter 7
What, am I extra pretty today?I flipped my hair happily as I sat down at my desk.My coworker Jane sneaked over, grinning. "Nice going, Hannah! When did you and the boss get together?"What the hell? Get together?I stared at her blankly. "What are you talking about?""You and Mr. Miller! Yesterday he heroically came to your rescue, looking absolutely dreamy. Then you both shared this look and left together. You have no idea how many hearts were broken."I tried to keep my cool, rolling my eyes. "Stop spreading rumors. That was my ex harassing me, and Mr. Miller was just protecting an employee. We left together because he happens to be my new neighbor - I just caught a ride."Sure, I secretly thirsted after Lucas, but if he heard about office rumors, he'd work me to death.Not worth dying over.But Jane looked skeptical. "No way. Look at this video the girls from accounting took. You don't share looks like that without years of secret romance!"What looks?I mean, I was def

As he tried to drag me away again, his bony fingers gripped my arm painfully.Worse was the flash of something unhinged in his eyes that sent chills down my spine.I called out frantically for the building security guards.But of course, they were nowhere to be found when you needed them.That's when Lucas appeared.His fist connected solidly with James's face, sending him crashing to the ground. Lucas's expression was ice-cold, radiating fury.He kept one arm protectively in front of me and snapped at the guards who finally showed up, "Get him out of here.""Yes, Mr. Miller."I leaned against his arm, heart pounding, looking dazed.Lucas looked down at me, clearly worried. "Hannah, are you okay?"I slowly shook my head, staring up at him. "I'm fine..."I really was fine.He probably thought I was in shock, but actually, my mind was racing.Oh. My. God!How can Lucas be this hot?!That punch didn't just hit my creep of an ex - it hit me right in the heart!Those romance
