I Quit Being the CEO’s Shadow
SYNOPSIS:
For five years, Evelyn Hart was Sebastian Vale’s perfect executive assistant.
She handled his meetings, his schedules, his private calls, and even the women he forgot to send flowers to after spending the night with them.
Everyone in Vale Corporation knew one thing:
Sebastian trusted Evelyn more than anyone.
What nobody knew was that Evelyn had secretly loved him for years.
Until the night she overheard him laugh at the idea of ever touching a woman like her.
“Reliable employees make terrible lovers,” he said casually. “Too emotional. Too attached.”
That same night, Evelyn submitted her resignation.
No tears.
No confrontation.
No explanation.
Then she disappeared.
Three months later, Sebastian sees her again at an elite business summit in Paris—not as his assistant, but as the youngest CEO of a billion-dollar AI startup competing directly against his company.
And standing beside her is a dangerous billionaire investor rumored to be obsessed with her.
For the first time in his life, Sebastian realizes something terrifying:
The woman who once waited for him…
no longer looks at him at all.
