A Moment Of Closeness
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Athena entered the shop and slowly closed the door behind her. She roamed her eyes throughout the shop to get a look at it. The shop was filled with many expensive-looking pieces of furniture like desks, shelves, couches, chairs and different kinds of decorative items.
Everything in the store screamed money, making Athena gulp.
"Excuse me, how may I help you?" A thirty-something looking man came forward and asked Athena in an overly polite voice. Athena smiled at the man. He had blonde hair and a pair of light green eyes. Dressed in a pair of black buttoned-down shirts and tailored pants, he looked kind of attractive.
"Hi, I'm looking for a complete office set. Ummm you know, desk, chair and shelves." Athena tried to put the appropriate words to exp

It had been a few days since Athena started working in the kitchen. So far everything turned out smooth for her. Even though she had to do extra work, it was still better than her previous job as Roman's assistant number 2. The staff of the kitchen were all friendly and helpful, they all welcomed her with open arms and made sure she was comfortable. She even made some good friends here. Ivan, Lizzy and Belle were a few of them. They made her work in the kitchen more fun. Sometimes she prayed to God not to let the main chef return anytime soon or let him land a better job so he would not return. As a result, she could continue to work here till her contract marriage was over or till Roman let her work anywhere but under him. She couldn't take his bullshit without snapping at him. Thinking of him, she remembered she hadn't seen him for three days. Four days after he brought her to
The CEO's Hidden Wife Embarrassment
She didn't just hit the Roman Morin! Oh, she did!She was doomed!Athena immediately dropped the vacuum cleaner and started to laugh nervously while scratching her head. Suddenly she found the white marbled floor very interesting instead of the angry man standing before her."I'm still waiting for an explanation." Roman's impatient voice made her look at him. He had a frown over his handsome face while his arms were crossed before his chest. His brownish hair was in a messy condition proving he had run his fingers many times through it. Seeing he was wearing his grey sweatpants and a black hoodie made her realize he had returned a long time ago and was probably looking for food to eat here in the kitchen. She was so dumb that she
The CEO's Hidden Wife Visiting The Morins
As soon as the huge front gate of the mansion was open, Butler James came to the view. His elderly face bloomed into a kind smile as he noticed who was standing opposite to him. He bowed respectfully before moving a little, making a way for Athena and Roman to enter. Roman simply nodded at him before directly going inside. Athena on the other hand smiled broadly at James."Uncle James, long time no see. How are you?" Athena greeted him sweetly while entering the mansion."I am doing fine, Young Madam. How are you? I'm glad you both are finally here for a visit. The Old master will be very happy." James replied happy-hearted."I'm good and please don't call me Young Madam. Just call me Athena like you usually did." Athena waved her hands while speaking.
The CEO's Hidden Wife Desire For Each Other
After dinner, Athena chatted with Henry for a while and then decided to head towards Roman's room. Upon reaching there she slowly entered the room and locked the door behind her. She found Roman working on his laptop. He was probably on a video conference. Athena didn't dare to bother him. She directly went to the walk-in closet and brought her nightdress before entering the washroom to change. She changed into a pair of cotton shorts and a tee shirt before coming out. She brought the moisturiser from the dresser before taking out some on her hands and putting them on her legs. While doing so, she could feel Roman's eyes on her from time to time but whenever she looked in his direction she found him looking down at the screen. After finishing applying the moisturiser, she put it back on the dresser. She then grabbed her phone and played some games out of boredom. But even half an hour later, she still felt bored. So she got out of bed and went directly to the attached balcony which
The CEO's Hidden Wife Shopping and Dinner
"Where are we going?" Athena asked again while looking at the girl sitting beside her while pretending to be busy on her phone. "Shopping and today we are going to meet someone after ages." Emilia grinned after finally answering her question. Athena looked at her curiously. "Who?" She asked. "You will soon know." Emilia waved mysteriously, making Athena scowl at her. Today after breakfast, Emilia ordered her to get changed and then dragged her to the car without informing her about anything. She didn’t know what had gotten into her best friend's head early in the morning. Currently, they are sitting in the car while heading toward the mall. "Why do we need to go shopping suddenly?" Athena asked Emilia while heaving a bored sigh. She didn’t want to spend her hard-earned money shopping again. She almost let out a cry thinking how much money she was going to lose this time. "We have a dinner party tonight, remember? And It's been so long since I last went shopping with you. You d
The CEO's Hidden Wife Dinner Disaster
Oh my God! Roman married her! Wasn't she one of your maids here? When did this happen?" A surprised squeak reached everyone's ears making the warm cosy room turn cold all of sudden. All heads turned around towards the source of the voice which happened to be Helen's younger sister Judith Boyle's. Athena turned around to look at Roman and found him clenching his jaw. His eyes hardened while narrowing into slits as he looked down at his plate. "If I were you, then I would have watched my mouth before opening, Judith. She's now the daughter-in-law of this house. Mind your words next time." Henry commanded in his authoritative voice while glaring at Judith who frowned at his words. "She is now our daughter-in-law, be respectful Judith. Don't make me lose my face in front of my family." Helen scolded her younger sister while smiling at Athena apologetically. Athena smiled back and mouthed 'It's ok. "Sorry! I didn't mean to offend anyone. I was just a little bit surprised." Judith apol
The CEO's Hidden Wife An Unexpected Encounter
It was around 11 am and Athena was engrossed in typing away some important emails which Kevin had instructed her to send. She finished the last email and withdrew her hands from the computer while stretching her arms. She let out a yawn and shook her head to get rid of the sleepiness. Sending emails was quite boring, the thought while grabbing her phone from the desk. She glanced at the office door in front of her desk and heaved a sigh. That was Roman's office. A few days ago she was shifted here in front of Roman's office from her previous cabin. Well, Kevin informed her that she was now Roman's full-time assistant beside him. She didn't like the idea much but she didn't have any choice left. After the dinner party in Morin's house was over, they returned to their penthouse. Both Roman and Athena avoided each other's presence deliberately, especially Athena. She mostly stayed in her room or on the balcony when they were inside the house and inside her cabin when they were in he
The CEO's Hidden Wife Left Alone
Chapter 22 After taking the black coffee mug filled with black coffee, Athena carefully made her way toward Roman's cabin. She knocked two times as usual before making her way inside. Behind the black mahogany wooden desk, Roman was sitting quietly while typing on his laptop. He was wearing a black shirt along with a grey suit. Athena also noticed his grey blazer hanging on his chair. His whole focus was on the computer's screen. Without wasting any more time, Athena moved her legs in front of his desk and placed his coffee on it. "Here's your black coffee, sir," Athena spoke softly while placing it near him. Roman nodded while casting her a glance. He then took the coffee without removing his eyes from the computer before taking a sip. He seemed really busy. Athena stood there while debating with herself if it was the appropriate time to ask for a leave. Roman noticed her standing there while thinking of something. She was wearing a pair of black skirts and a beige sleeveless top

The CEO's Hidden Wife The Man Who Took Care Of Her
After coming back from the hotel, Athena went directly to her room before locking herself in. She wasn’t in the right state of mind to face anyone right now after all that happened. She just laid under her blanket, as she was too exhausted and brokenhearted. Each moment she remembered his harsh words and insults, she broke down into sobs. She had been crying since the morning, which made her eyes red and puffy. She never imagined the outcome of her action would turn out to be so severe. Her heart was aching so badly, making it hard for her to breathe properly. A discreet knock on the door caught her attention, making her glance at the door. She removed the comforter from her body while sitting up straight on the bed. “Who’s it?” She asked while quickly wiping away all traces of tears with the back of her palm. “It's me, Kevin, Mrs. Morin.” Athena heard Kevin’s reply from the other side of the door. She heaved a long sigh before quickly fixing her appearance to make herself presenta
The CEO's Hidden Wife Humiliation
The golden sunlight peeked inside the lavish hotel room through the small gap in the white curtains. Athena, who had just turned her body around while smuggling inside the white blanket, frowned when the light fell directly in her face. She let out a small groan while raising her palm a little to block the sudden source of light. She tried to open her eyes after blinking a few times to adjust to the lights. As she tried to move her body to stretch a little, she felt a little sore down there, making her instantly remember the deed she did last night. A small hint of blush crept on her face, making her clutch tighter to her chest. All of a sudden, she realised Roman wasn’t on the bed. She bit her lips while trying to peek into the other corner of the room, trying to see if he was present or not. It didn’t take her long enough to spot his tall figure standing at the entrance of the balcony, smoking some cigarettes. He looked like he had already taken a shower, as he was already dressed
The CEO's Hidden Wife Ecstasy
Roman gently carried Anthea directly to the room before placing her naked body on the bed. As she fell back onto the bed, her hair spread all over the pillow, but it's those stunning pair of eyes that kept him enchanted. He could stare at those pair of green eyes and get lost forever. Athena was undoubtedly the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. He had been attracted to her since God knew when, yet he was too proud to admit it because of their differences in social status. He had been denying her for too long, all because of his pride. He hated to admit it, but he wanted her. He wanted her from the moment he realised how beautifully she had grown up and how attractive and sexy she had become with time. "I'm going to make you mine, Athena," he declared while his ocean blue eyes stared directly into her green ones. Athena felt weak in her knees as a sudden foreign feeling raised in the oit of her stomach. She looked at him in a daze as her whole body burned with fire and need. She
The CEO's Hidden Wife Fire
Roman let out a groan and tightened his grip on Athena's hair, his lips smashing down on hers with the same urgency she was feeling. She whimpered against his lips and opened herself for him, wanting and craving more. Every idea fled as her arms wrapped around his neck, his body pressing against hers. "Fuck," he mumbled against her lips before placing his hands around her waist. "You taste as sweet as the last time I tasted you." He pushed her up against the bathroom wall, and her legs wrapped around his hips as her dress fell open at the cut in her thigh. "So fucking sweet. Just like honey." Roman whispered between kisses while bringing her closer. As his hands moved over Athena's body, his touch was agitated and urgent. The way he swayed his hips while kissing her was driving her mad. Athena could immediately tell how much he wanted her, and the way he pushed up against her was magical. It's both too much and not enough at all. Athena began to pull down Roman's damp shirt, and h
The CEO's Hidden Wife Warning
Athena stared at the slightly closed door of the washroom with a worried expression on her face. She debated with herself whether she should go inside or not. He looked like he was in such pain, which made her heart clench in pain too. She wanted to call for help, or at least call Kevin. He might have some kind of solution. As she was about to turn around to walk away, she heard the shower running inside. The weather around here was already chilly, and he was taking a cold shower in this situation. What if he caught a cold or pneumonia? Athena's eyes widened in realization. She quickly turned around before walking in front of the washroom again. "Are you okay?" She called while lightly knocking on the door. However, there was no response except for the sound of water running. "You will catch a cold if you stand under the cold water for too long. It's not a good idea, Roman." She said it helplessly while starting at the wooden door. Still, there was no response from him, which made he
The CEO's Hidden Wife Drugged
Athena sat beside Roman with a bored expression on her face. She looked mindlessly here and there, not being able to focus on anything. She started to hate those business parties. Before coming, she was anticipating the party but after coming, she regretted it. Those men around here were only talking about business, the stock market or other boring things. While the women were busy talking about fashion, designer dresses and jewellery or boyfriends. Athena was interested in none of that stuff. She was getting annoyed at Roman for forcing her to stay beside him. She had no job sitting there and staring at people's faces. Getting impatient, Athena poked Roman's arm making him turn around and face her. He raised one of his eyebrows, silently asking her to speak. "I'm bored. Can I go and look around?" Athena asked pitifully. Roman paused for a moment before looking around for a few seconds. He then leaned forward towards her."Don't go wandering around. You can try some snacks from the
The CEO's Hidden Wife Party
It's been three days already and their business in Montreal was half done. They signed the deal yesterday so their business partners decided to throw a gala in their honour. Which would take place tonight. Surprisingly in the last three days, she didn't have much hard time working and staying with Roman. They pretty much behaved how they used to behave while living in their penthouse in Vancouver. Everyone was busy with their professional tasks and didn't get much time to chit-chat. Natalie surprisingly acted quite calmly while they were around their business partners which also surprised Athena. Currently, Athena was getting ready for the party. She had around two hours left till Roman came knocking on her door. Athena sighed lazily while looking through her dresses. She had a few dresses with her, mostly those Eleana sent her. Athena picked up a green dress that matched her eyes' colour. She put the dress aside before starting to do her hair. She put her hair in an elegant bun with
The CEO's Hidden Wife Room With Him?
"Stay away from him." He leaned forward and whispered coldly in her ears. She turned her head to look at him and this made their noses touch. Athena's eyes went wide as she stared at Roman who at the same time stared at her, his eyes already turned intense. "What do you mean?" She whispered back looking into his eyes. Her traitor eyes roamed his face and then fixed on his soft pink lips which looked quite tempting. Athena almost shook her head and leaned her body backwards while creating some distance between them. She looked around to see if anyone noticed them but fortunately, everyone was busy minding their own business. She sighed in relief. Roman who had been looking at her the whole time also drew back his body on his seat lazily. His eyes roamed her open arms and the huge portion of cleavage which was showing through the loose spaghetti top because of her slightly bending down her body. "Whatever you heard. I don't want you to get close to him by any means." He didn't beat
The CEO's Hidden Wife Stay Away From Him
Athena sat quietly in the luxurious private jet while looking outside through the jet's window. Looking at the white clouds and blue sky, her heart felt calm. Beside her sitting quietly was Kevin. Athena had her headphones plugged in while she listened to some soft music to block her ears from the unwanted sweet talks and giggles. It was the day they were flying to Montreal, Quebec. Unfortunate for Athena as she thought they were flying to Quebec city. Currently, there were seven people in the private jet excluding the two pilots and the two flight attendants. Roman was sitting with Natalie Smith while Kevin and she sat together across them. Behind Roman and Natalie were Oliver Reid, Roman's best friend and business partner and Jared Smith, Smith Corporation's CFO and Natalie's elder cousin. Mia, Jared Smith's secretary, sat alone behind Athena. While choosing seats Athena deliberately sat beside Kevin because he was the only one in the whole jet with whom Athena was acquainted bes
