All Chapters of My Boss, My Husband: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Yesterday morning, I’d woken up with the man I loved, chatting about how excited we were for the wedding of our dreams. This morning, I woke up in a cheap hotel room with my eyes swollen from crying so much. There would be no wedding, no happy ending for me, no family I had dreamed of. I was left with practically nothing. No roof over my head, and who knew whether Andrew would have the decency to return my clothes. The only thing I had left was my job. One to which I have returned, locking myself in my cubicle to immerse myself in my work and crunch out numbers. I worked for Fairmount Corporation, a fairly large real estate company dedicated to what all real estate companies do: buying and selling properties. And I, who had been a business administration graduate for almost three years, had been working there since then. The fact that I shared the same last name as the company was no coincidence. Its owner was my father. Fairmount Corporation was a family business, one in which I e

I was in a fog of pleasure that I didn't want to emerge from. Kisses were traded back and forth, and the caresses on my bare legs moved up and down. I writhed among the white sheets, enjoying the warmth of the man on top of me. I didn't want this to ever end."You're beautiful, Marianne," he whispered in my ear. "You're beautiful too," I whispered, sounding as daring as I had never been. I bit his lip with delight, which encouraged him to go faster. The way he was moving in and out of my body made me let out so many pitiful moans I hadn't even known I could make. "If it's too much for you, tell me..." he said, sounding restrained. Too much for me? What was he talking about? The slight discomfort or the pinch of pain I had felt at the beginning? That was nothing compared to the pleasure that dominated me. Sex was the best thing in the world; I didn't even know why I had been so apprehensive about it. "What if I told you it’s not enough?" I said, caressing his face. "Go faster

As I had been a virgin up until recently, the embarrassment I felt from having a drinking and bed partner was still new to me. It was worth noting that I hadn't exactly planned to sleep with my new boss, and it was also worth noting that my immediate reaction was to lower my gaze to the ground and shrink into my chair. If I hid, then maybe, just maybe, he wouldn't see me."As I was saying, Lucius is in charge of operations in the real estate sector of Brown Enterprise in our country. With his experience as well as his connections around the world, we hope to spread our wings as a large majority of you have requested," my father spoke with a noticeable touch of resentment.He hadn't wanted to do this of his own free will. Now that I was reading the documents on the table, I saw that out of the 60% of net investments he owned, he had sold 50% to Lucius, 4% to Andrew, and kept the remaining 6% for himself. Somehow, Lucius Brown had given a better offer to my father and thus became our n

"Is this... true? You're not just looking for an excuse to pick on me?" I asked, feeling hopeless."Why does the daughter of this company's founder find it so hard to accept that this will also work in her favor?" he inquired curiously.That was the problem. My father had never favored me before, except for letting me be an intern or approving my attempt to sell a run-down building that nobody wanted to sell."You must have been raised with high expectations and ambitions..." he surmised nonchalantly. "You know what you're facing. You may leave."Speechless, I opened the door to leave, though he spoke to me before I exited."It's an ambitious project, and I like ambitious people. Don't disappoint me; I can forgive and accept rejection, but not the loss of my money," he assured, focused on his documents.I didn't even know what to say to him. I was speechless from the shock of so much new information all at once.-I typed furiously on my poor computer, looking up various topics

I was not putting on airs; it simply had been necessary for us to stay this late. I had worked my way up from the bottom in this company, and I didn't deserve to be betrayed by my ex-fiance with my own half-sister. What hurt me the most was being accused of being the mistress of a married man who had only been kind to me. How could they be so cruel?The doors suddenly opened, giving me a second to wipe my eyes, though it wasn’t enough. Lucius was on the other side of the elevator and must’ve realized that I had been crying. He was slightly surprised by this, just for an instant. Then he entered and stood beside me, pressing the button to close the doors.This was, at the very least, uncomfortable. I blinked rapidly to dry my eyes. I couldn't touch them again."Do you usually leave at this hour, Marianne?" he asked to break the silence."It was a special circumstance this time, because of the assigned project, Mr. Brown," I replied."Oh. Were you thinking up a worse name to call me
