All Chapters of My Bossy Secretary: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

(Lexi’s POV)“Distressing…”I tapped my temple with the eraser and squinted my eyes, thinking of the word. I looked at the ceiling, biting the ferrule of the pencil as I thought. Sighing, I put the newspaper I was holding as I tried to write my answer in the white squares of the crossword puzzle. “P-I-T-I-F-U-L...”One corner of my mouth lifted, realizing my answer was wrong. “This is upsetting. L-E-X-I…Pitiful!” I sneered, clucking my tongue and shaking my head. “Starts with a P… eight letters.” My eyes squinted as I racked my brain for a possible answer. “Ends with C.”“Pathetic,” Finn answered, startling me.My eyes widened, sure that he was not in the office when I arrived, but I pressed my lips, deciding not to ask how he came in when I remembered his flat because instead of his usual business suit, he was wearing pajamas.My heart pounded in my chest, seeing him leaning on the doorframe, looking like a print model in a magazine.“Breakfast?” I asked, standing up but not waiting

(Lexi’s POV)My eyes flickered at the time on my wristwatch. It was after five, and Finn’s last meeting had ended only a few minutes ago. He was sitting at his table, signing the documents for his approval, and when he was done, he raised and waved it to me.I took it from him without saying anything and left his private office. Finn put a wall between us after our conversation at his flat, and he only talked to me whenever he would ask for files, details of his next meeting, and about the dinner later. We did not eat lunch together, and for the first time, it felt weird eating alone.Lexa was leaning on my table when I came out of Finn’s office. She raised her hand, wiggling her fingers to greet me.“Still mad at me?” She asked and pursed her lips.I shook my head and went to my seat to gather my things.“Lexi, please -”“Hey there, beautiful,” Finn greeted, cutting her. He opened his arms to her as the corners of his mouth lifted, the smile I had missed seeing the whole day.“Oh, hi

(Lexi’s POV)“Is that really necessary?” I asked and gazed at Finn. “Can we just enjoy our dinner?”“That’s why we’re here, Frank.” Finn smiled. “Let’s get used to it, seeing them with us. It’s like seeing my nieces all the time.”Frank laughed. “I know, but I don’t get jealous when I see you with the girls. Seeing you kissing Lexa… It’s just weird.”Finn nodded, agreeing with him. “Yeah, I understand,” he chuckled.At first, I pretended not to listen and enjoy finishing my meal, but as I swallowed the food, I tilted my head and smiled.“I hope you don’t get confused at work, baby. I don’t like to think you’re kissing my sister at work,” I smirked.“Of course not, baby,” he assured, glancing at me and then at Lexa. “She’s a dragon, always breathing fire.”Liar!I faked a smile. “Good!” My heart screamed in anger and pain, but I ignored everything.“Are you and Lexi okay? You seemed to be arguing back there a while ago?” Finn changed the topic and looked at Lexa as he picked up his gla

(Lexi’s POV)“Lexi!”Finn called again as he walked in my direction, but when he was already near me, he only kissed my cheek and continued to walk toward Lexa. “They’re asking you to sign this,” he said, giving her the folder.I breathed out in relief and continued to walk like it was nothing. Lexa and I needed to change our clothes and switch back before one of us made the mistake of claiming who was who. I walked to the cubicle and slightly opened the curtain to see Aliyah in bed sleeping.The small space was already crowded with two doctors inside, Frank and Jeannie.Jocelyn turned to me.“She’s now out of danger, but it would help if we would run some more tests to know what other food she’s allergic to.” Jocelyn must have felt my worry about staying longer. She held my hand. “We can do it this weekend. Just call me so I can schedule you with our specialist.”“Thank you, Jocelyn,” I mumbled, smiling meekly at her before walking closer to my sister.“Finn knew where to find me i

(Finn’s POV)“Where’s Sky?”I sat beside Angela, rolling my head from side to side as I tried to relax my muscle. The work, dinner date, and the trip to the hospital instead of flying to Angela Island exhausted me. I imagined a million things Lexa and I would enjoy doing at the beach, but the four of us all ended up sitting in the lobby, waiting for Aliyah. My drop-dead gorgeous sister-in-law was sitting alone in the family room, facing the television, not precisely watching because she was just flipping the channel, but nothing seemed to interest her. I seldom saw Sky and his family on the weekdays, but they would usually stay at home whenever my brother would go on a business trip. Sky was already home, but I heard the triplets wanted to stay in the mansion because Elenita promised to teach them how to bake pastries.“With the twins. It’s his turn to help them with their homework,” she answered and looked at me. “Is everything okay? You’re not supposed to be sitting beside me and
