บททั้งหมดของ Plus-Size Secretary: A Contract Marriage with My Boss: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Without wasting a second, Hellena hurried toward the luxury apartment complex where Kael Willian lived.The increasingly bitter night wind slapped against her skin the moment she stepped out of the taxi. Before her stood a towering skyscraper clad in dark glass, exuding the same arrogance as the powerful man who resided within it.As Kael’s personal secretary for the past five years, Hellena possessed a special access card for company emergencies. Her trembling fingers pressed the card against the sensor panel.Beep.The private lobby doors slid open smoothly.“Calm down, Hellena. You’re only here to borrow money,” she whispered to herself, trying to steady the increasingly erratic pounding of her heart. “Mr. Kael is your only hope now.”The elevator ascended soundlessly.Inside the mirrored metal cube, Hellena stared at her reflection. Her eyes were swollen, traces of her tears still lingering. Her loose work attire was slightly wrinkled.Being a plus-size woman often made her feel i

The elevator chimed softly as it reached the ground floor.Hellena stepped out, the lingering tension still wrapped tightly around her chest. Instead of returning directly to her cramped apartment, she flagged down the first taxi that passed and gave a single destination:Herry’s house.Hellena refused to carry the title of Kael Willian’s wife tomorrow morning while still leaving loose ends tied to another man.This toxic relationship had to end tonight.The taxi stopped in front of a house she had visited with a heart full of longing for the past three years.Tonight, however, every step she took toward the front door felt unfamiliar and hollow.Knock. Knock. Knock.Hellena knocked steadily on the wooden door.It did not take long before it opened, revealing Herry.The man looked utterly stunned.His hair was slightly disheveled, and the flannel shirt he wore was not even fully buttoned across his chest.“H-Hellena?” he stammered, his eyes darting nervously. “What are you doing here

The luxury sedan finally came to a stop at the lobby entrance of one of the most elite private hospitals in the capital. The glass-dominated façade reflected the silhouettes of Kael and Hellena as they stepped out almost simultaneously."Get out," Kael said shortly, without a trace of emotion.Hellena nodded obediently. Her fingers tightened around the strap of her work bag as she tried to suppress the pounding of her heart. From the whirlwind of Herry's betrayal and the rushed civil marriage earlier that day, she now had to step onto a new stage of deception: becoming a loving wife in front of the CEO's mother.They walked into the main lobby. The strong scent of antiseptic immediately assaulted her senses. Kael strode forward with long, decisive steps, while Hellena lagged slightly behind, trying to conceal the pain in her ankle that had been sprained the night before."Can you walk?" Kael asked flatly without bothering to look back."Yes, Sir.""Good. Don't look nervous or limp in

The luxury sedan cut through the capital's main thoroughfares at a steady speed before finally turning into an elite residential district closed to the public. The neighborhood was wrapped in an expensive silence, where each property was separated by vast gardens worth a fortune. Hellena gazed out the window, observing the rows of fan palms standing proudly along the roadside. Her heart, which had only just calmed after the drama at the hospital, began pounding once again in an irregular rhythm.The car gradually slowed as it approached a towering black iron gate operated automatically. The moment the gate swung open, the grandeur of a modern colonial-style mansion immediately greeted Hellena's eyes. The building stood magnificently with sturdy white cylindrical pillars, dominated by ivory-colored walls and expansive glass panels reflecting the afternoon sky.The car came to a stop beneath the marble-black drop-off area at the main entrance. A middle-aged man dressed in a neat suit st

The soft sound of water splashing against the marble floor echoed faintly from behind the frosted glass bathroom door. Inside the damp space now filled with swirling warm steam, Hellena stood beneath the shower with her eyes closed. She allowed the streams of warm water to cascade over her body, trying to wash away the exhaustion, fatigue, and unfamiliar emotions that had been weighing on her since this morning. Becoming the contract wife of a tyrannical CEO in less than twenty-four hours was not something her rational mind could easily process.Meanwhile, the double teak doors of the master bedroom were pushed open from the outside. Kael stepped inside, the remnants of tension still clearly etched across his forehead after finishing an emergency virtual meeting with the board of directors in the downstairs study. His heavy, steady footsteps halted for a moment when he noticed that both the bed area and the long sofa inside his room were empty.Kael glanced at the luxury wristwatch on
