My Bossy Secretary Chapter 97 – Claustrophobic Lexi
(Lexi’s POV)I adjusted the strap of my backpack, mentally checking if I had everything in my bag after Aliyah and I got out of the taxi. Unfamiliar with the surroundings, she was quiet, probably anxious that she might step on something or someone might bump into her in the city's busy street. Her small hand gripped the fabric of the same clothes I wore the first time I came here; Only I was sure that the long sleeve white shirts under my knee-length overall denim jumper dress assured me there would be no déjà vu sort of things to happen today.I had to bring her with me because Jeannie had to deal with something at work, and Jolene had to go to school. At first, Aliyah was excited, especially when I promised her we would go to the water museum, but as soon as we got out of the taxi, she must have been scared of the sounds of footsteps, chattering, and honks of some cars that she couldn't see.Catherine assured me yesterday that Frank was not reporting to work yet. The day Jolene saw
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 98 – Not Aliyah, Please
(Lexi’s POV) Catherine was not at her table when we arrived at their floor office, but her open computer could tell she was either inside Sky’s office or in a meeting. Finn walked past us and went to his brother’s office. “Where are we?” Aliyah asked, but I did not answer because I was unsure if she was talking to Frank or me. “We’re in our office.” Frank put her down but held her hand. “My table’s over here,” he said, guiding my sister toward his workspace. “Want to sit in my chair?” “Uh-huh!” she smiled excitedly. As Frank carried Aliyah and sat her in his swivel chair, it was the same time Catherine opened the door from Sky’s office. She knew my purpose for coming, but her face told me I had to do something else before turning over the things inside my bag. “Sky wants to have a word with you, Lexi,” she smiled, but more like a sigh. She turned to Frank. “Sky’s asking for you.” “Aliyah,” I called her, hoping to take my little sister inside Sky’s private office. “Leave her her
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 99 – Just My Imagination
(Lexi’s POV)When the elevator door opened, I looked around, finding a place for Aliyah to sit. I led her to the couch and helped her get into the leather L-shaped sofa. I sat beside her and enveloped her little hands in mine.“Will you be okay here?” I asked her as my eyes wandered because I did not prepare for this.I should have brought a sweater for her or dressed her appropriately since the aircon’s temperature was set at a lower number here on Finn’s floor.“Uh-huh.” She went quiet for a few seconds, groping the leather seat, then smiled. “Lexi, where’s my book?”I took out the book from my bag and gave it to her. “You call me if you need anything, okay? I’ll just go and talk to Finn.”“Okay,” she answered, flipping her book open.I took a deep breath before walking toward the door, hoping to ask Finn if I could borrow a blanket for Aliyah. Frank and Finn hated me, but their fondness for my sister seemed to have remained, so maybe he would give in to my little favor for Aliyah’s
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 100 – Dreaming
(Lexi’s POV)I was dreaming… I must have been dreaming, but I wasn’t. I could really hear Aliyah crying and calling my name.When my eyelids opened, the wall clock told me it was only after midnight, and I was still wearing the same clothes I had the whole day. I winced when I sat upright on the couch and raised my hand to my nape to massage it.“Argh! Why am I here?” I asked absently, but before I could recall why I heard my little sister calling me.Aliyah was crying.“Aliyah!” I snapped myself from dreaming and dashed to my bedroom.“Lexi,” she whimpered, raising her arms and groping her hands in the air.I reached for her hands. “I’m here,” I said, sitting on the edge of the bed and cupping her face. “What’s wrong?”“My tummy,” she complained. Her mouth downturned, whimpering and rubbing her belly. “My tummy hurts, Lexi.”My lips quivered as I bent forward, pressing my ear to my little sister’s belly. I bit my bottom lip, realizing her gurgling tummy told me she was having gas pai
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 101 – Just In Case
(Finn’s POV)It was fifteen minutes before seven when I saw Lexi almost out of breath as she entered the building. She looked like a single mother escaping from someone walking fast to the lobby with two bags on both shoulders. Tossing the magazine I was pretending to read, I stood up but still thought about whether to walk in her direction or just watch her.I called Jolene last night, but before I could inform her that Lexi was coming back to work, she told me that Lexa would not come home for a few days, and she felt guilty that she could not help in taking care of Aliyah because she had an exam this week. I wished to tell her I didn’t care, but after calling her at three, I had been sitting here for an hour, waiting for Lexi, but didn’t realize Frank would be coming to work early too.My eyes squinted, and my lips curled in annoyance when I saw him taking Aliyah and the baby bag from her shoulder. I stood up and walked toward the elevator, following them. Lexi panicked, pushing th
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 102 – I Will Deal With Them
(Finn’s POV)Lexi took the recorder and checked it once again before placing it back on the table. When I glanced at her, I knew she was taking minutes, marking some words that I was sure she would check in the recording later; that’s why she was anxious about it.Just like the last time, I recorded the meeting using my smartphone, my own contingency plan, just in case she forgot to turn on her recorder again. I knew it was early to tell if she was pregnant, but I could not help myself glancing at her.Yesterday, I almost dragged Chelsea out of my office, but she pushed me to the couch and pounced on me like a tigress sitting on my lap. My hands were on her hips when the door suddenly opened, but I didn’t want to explain to Lexi that I was about to lift Chelsea and sit her on the couch. Instead of telling her what was happening, I growled at her, and she ran outside like a scaredy cat.The meeting had already ended when a company nurse knocked softly on an ajar door and peeked in Lexi
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 103 – She Might Be
(Frank’s POV)“Knock, knock!” I said gently, knocking at an already ajar door.Sky raised his head and lifted an eyebrow at me instead of asking what I needed. I didn’t usually knock because I would usually come and go to his office bringing documents or anything he needed.“I know you still have one meeting, but can I leave early today?” I asked, wanting to go to Lexi while I still had the courage to talk to her.“My meeting’s with the president of Absolute Glam, Frank, and I was still thinking about whether to talk to her here or in bed,” he smirked.“I prefer the bed,” I chuckled.“I might consider your suggestion, so please, go!” He raised his hand, gesturing a short wave before focusing on the report he was reading.Catherine only waved her hand at me when I took my car key from the table, and like Sky, she returned her eyes to the monitor.As I entered the elevator and pressed the button toward Finn’s office floor area, my mind wandered to the day I was jogging the mesmerizing s
My Bossy Secretary Chapter 104 – Did You Love Me
(Frank’s POV)Lexi was quiet the entire drive going home, and we could not talk with Aliyah in the car with us. When we arrived, I thought of hundreds of reasons just in case I saw Lexa at their place, but instead of seeing her, we saw Jolene sitting on the porch, waiting for her.“Why are you here?” Lexi asked, surprised that she showed up.“Mom asked me to come here and told me to stay with you. She’ll just pick me up tomorrow and drive me to school,” she answered and smiled at me. “Hi, Frank!” she greeted me and turned to Aliyah. “Tell me about your day,” she said, taking the bag from me, holding her hand, and leading the child inside the house.“Please, come in,” Lexi said, but I shook my head.“Can we just talk in the car?” I asked her, not wanting Jolene to overhear our conversation.Lexi nodded and followed me back into the car. She plopped inside the passenger seat and waited until I got to sit in the driver’s seat.“I’m sorry, Frank,” she sighed, lowering her gaze. “I’m sorry
