Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Billionaire’s Secretary : Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Eric cursed for the up-tenth time as he dragged his reluctant feet into to the hospital building. He would have come earlier, but his guilt didn’t let him. He slept with another woman when he claimed to love Cheryl. He felt like he betrayed her or something. So he was at home for almost the whole day reeling from his guilt. Until he found the courage to go, it was just a fling, a one-night stand with a stranger. It wasn’t that serious. As he made to pass through the door that led into the hospital building, someone held his arm from behind.“Hey handsome,” he could recognize that voice, the one he dreaded of hearing again. After their night of passion. When he work up the next day, she was nowhere to be found. And now she was here, again. To his discomfort.Eric turned to see her. She was dressed more provocatively that yesterday. This made him come to a conclusion. She was a playgirl.“I don’t have time for this…..”He stoped when he realized he didn’t know her name. “Isabelle,” s

“Congratulations boss, I can’t believe we did it,” Jeff grinned as he stood in front of Shawn in his office.“Yeah, I guess we did,” he affirmed. “How did you convince her,” Jeff held his chin thoughtfully.“Convince who?” They both turned to see a third party. They didn’t notice when Amy entered the room. She was looking smartly dressed as usual, her hair in a ponytail and her eyes glittering as always.“Hi, Amy,” Shawn said as she darted her eyes from Jeff to Shawn."Uh... I should get going, boss. I have something to finish," Jeff hastily excused himself, understanding the need for Shawn and Amy to have some privacy.Amy observed Jeff's swift exit and then focused her gaze on Shawn. "So..." she prompted, raising an eyebrow, eager to know what had transpired between him and Jeff."Castle Corp accepted our proposal," Shawn began as Amy took a seat across from him at his desk. "Now, the shareholders have no choice but to appoint me as their CEO.""Oh..." Amy nodded, processing the in

“A man came to the company this morning, very early this morning. He said he would be in charge of all of Antonio corporation welfare till the end of the project,” Jeff said.Shawn struggled to comprehend the situation. His voice trembled as he addressed Jeff, barely audible to his own ears."What?" Shawn's words hung in the air, a mixture of disbelief and confusion. He desperately sought guidance amidst the chaos. "What should we do, boss?" Jeff inquired, his concern evident."How can they do this? When was this agreed upon?" Shawn's mind raced, trying to piece together the puzzle. It seemed nothing had been agreed upon, yet they had apparently become the largest shareholder in the corporation."Fuck!" Shawn spat in frustration, catching the worried gaze of his son Andrew. Shawn forced a smile, patted the boy's head, then distanced himself, needing a moment alone to process the situation."When did they acquire shares? How come all of this is happening?!” “I’m not sure boss, but it

"You've only known me for a few minutes, and yet you're already passing judgment," Allen retorted, studying Cheryl intently.Cheryl sighed and rose from her seat. "I'm not being judgmental, Mr. Allen," she countered, dismissing the disapproving look on his face as she addressed him formally. "I simply don't think Shawn should suffer for the misdeeds of this man. They aren't even related. Antonio Corp is innocent."Allen observed her for a moment as she stared back, her gaze unwavering. "You may be right, Cheryl. You may be the CEO, but I am still the chairman," he said, eliciting an incredulous chuckle from Cheryl. "Now you want to take my company, huh?""Everything I have is yours, Cheryl. You are my only heir," he replied, his gaze softening, but Cheryl remained unmoved."I don't trust those people—Shawn or whoever. And besides, Nathaniel will be in charge for the time being, until the project is completed. You've invested a substantial sum. It's only proper to exercise caution," Al

"Daddy?" Andrew’s eyes widened as she asked, "Did you two have a fight?""Why do you ask?" Cheryl furrowed her brow, hoping her expression hadn't given everything away."You argued this morning..." Andrew pouted, his frown deepening. "He even raised his voice at me," he added, and Cheryl sighed, knowing this conversation wouldn't be easy."Does he hate me?" he asked, and Cheryl quickly shook her head."Where are you getting these ideas?" she asked, her expression filled with concern.Andrew shrugged nonchalantly, but Cheryl knew her son. He was hurting but trying desperately to conceal it."I just thought so..." Andrew stared at her intently. Cheryl removed her hands from his shoulders and held his hands. "Daddy loves you. I love you even more," she chuckled bitterly, aware that her words wouldn't alleviate their concerns. But her nerves refused to calm down."Is he leaving us?" Andrew asked once again, and Cheryl pursed her lips."How would you feel if you didn't see him again?" she
