Semua Bab Plus-Size Secretary: A Contract Marriage with My Boss: Bab 51 - Bab 60

The heavy thud of the thick teak door closing left an oppressive silence inside the CEO's office. Kael William Smith stood frozen in the middle of the room, staring blankly at the door through which Hellena's curvy silhouette had just disappeared. The cool breeze from the luxurious air-conditioning system pierced his skin, yet the heat burning inside his chest only intensified, consuming the remnants of his anger that had suddenly evaporated, leaving behind an unfamiliar emptiness.Kael turned around with heavy steps before dropping his tall frame into his large alligator leather executive chair. His large hands rose to roughly rake over his handsome face. The veins on the backs of his hands bulged rigidly, reflecting the violent turmoil raging deep within his heart.Damn it, Kael cursed hoarsely inwardly.He stared blankly at the ceiling. Remembering how Hellena's round eyes, usually so clear and obedient, had suddenly turned as cold as ice and filled with unmistakable disgust, somet

A month had passed since the cold storm swept through the secret relationship in the master bedroom of the Smith mansion. During those four weeks, the atmosphere on the executive floor of William Group had remained rigid, disciplined, and suffocating. Hellena Crawley had truly proven her words; she had transformed into the perfect secretary without a single flaw, moving efficiently, speaking only when necessary, and completely cutting off any unnecessary eye contact with Kael William Smith. The emotional distance Hellena had built was so solid that Kael found himself increasingly tormented by a cycle of pride and anxiety that he refused to acknowledge.Meanwhile, in another corner of the bustling city, the night had become a personal hell for a man from Hellena's past.Inside a messy apartment on the outskirts of the city, Herry sat silently on the edge of his stiff bed. Empty liquor bottles and fast-food wrappers were scattered across the table, reflecting the chaos his life had beco

Vivian Wheeler's presence at the William Group building over the past few days had been like a glamorous storm disrupting the peace of the executive floor. Under the pretense of handling the continuation of Wheeler Group's investment, the blonde woman visited Kael's office almost every day. However, it was not business that caught Vivian's sharp attention, but rather the gossip circulating among the staff in the cafeteria downstairs.By chance, while waiting in line for her premium coffee, Vivian overheard two employees from the Public Relations Department whispering to each other. They were discussing the strange way Kael William Smith had suddenly become extremely protective of his personal secretary, Hellena Crawley. The latest gossip about a skinny man named Herry, who had come begging outside the company gates a few days earlier, had also spread throughout the building. According to the rumors, Kael himself had watched everything from inside his luxury car with a face filled with

The warm aroma of chamomile tea filled the Smith mansion's living room after the exhausting dinner had come to an end. Mrs. Hansel sat on the long velvet sofa, while Kael chose to lean back in a single armchair near the large window overlooking the side garden. On the other side, Vivian sat gracefully, occasionally casting sharp glances at Hellena, who had just placed a tray of snacks on the glass coffee table.The atmosphere, which had initially been quiet, suddenly changed when Mrs. Hansel slowly set down her teacup. She looked back and forth between Kael and Hellena, her eyes filled with undisguised hope."Speaking of your marriage," Mrs. Hansel said, breaking the silence in a warm tone, "Mommy wants to know how your pregnancy plan is progressing. Mommy can't wait to hold a grandchild from the two of you."The question instantly caused Hellena to stop what she was doing. Her heart beat a little faster, yet she tried her best to keep her face as calm as possible. She subtly glanced

The morning inside the luxurious hotel suite occupied by Vivian Wheeler was no warmer than the sunlight filtering through the gaps in the silk curtains. The blonde-haired woman sat on the edge of the bed in a loose satin robe, staring at the screen of her personal phone with eyes as cold as ice. Her mind remained firmly fixed on what had happened the previous night at the Smith family mansion.The image of Kael William Smith—the man who had always been indifferent and refused to let any woman touch him—devouring the lips of his curvy secretary with such intensity kept replaying in her head like a broken record. Every detail of that scene, including the way Kael had carried Hellena upstairs without the slightest hesitation, made Vivian's chest burn with overwhelming jealousy and denial."Impossible," Vivian whispered to herself, her fingers tightening around the rim of the coffee cup in her hand until they trembled slightly. "There has to be something wrong. Kael's standards aren't tha
