In Love With My Billionaire Boss

Ellen Grater walked with bold steps into the Haven Hotel. She was dressed in a navy blue dress that stopped at her knees, and her brunette hair cascaded down her back in lovely curls. Despite the casual wear, her height and elegant V-shaped face added to her appeal, as many heads turned in her direction.With a confident gait, she moved through the lobby of the hotel in silver heels, hoping the horrible information she had received was not true.“Luke just proposed to Emily,” read the text sent to her phone an hour ago.Ellen had learned that her ex-boyfriend of two years, who had broken up with her two weeks ago, had just proposed to another lady! Emily!She walked into the elevator and pressed the button to the fourth floor. The surprise proposal was said to be taking place at the private restaurant at the hotel.Stepping out of the elevator, she moved down the hall towards the private restaurant. On her way, she came across an elderly woman struggling to open her door and looking a

He advanced towards her and touched her face as he bent his head and whispered, “Quite the audacious move; never let me see you anywhere around me ever, or you won't like what I'll do to you,” the handsome stranger said to her. Ellen watched him walk away, wishing the ground would open and swallow her.*******“Have you seen her?” Alex Gilbert asked Mary, the caretaker of Mrs. Warner, wife of the late Paul Warner, founder of Warner Haven Corporation.Yes, I have; she is in her room now; a young lady assisted her,” Mary informed Alex.“Come with me; Mr. Warner is at the club; he’d like to hear it from you himself,” Alex said to her as they walked towards the club.*******Leo Warner is the CEO of Warner Haven Corporation, the fastest-growing hotel chain in the country.He was the only grandchild of the Warner family, and at thirty years old, he was in charge of the company.Today was a memorable day for him as he was finally made CEO and was now in total charge of the company. He has f

Looking through her email for the hundredth time, Ellen sighed and flung herself onto the bed.“One, two, three,” Ellen murmured as she mentally counted the number of applications she had submitted. Staring at the ceiling of her apartment, she screamed, raising both hands and legs in the air to let out her frustration.“I need a job, anything,” she screamed into her pillow.Most of the applications she’d submitted were long overdue and had received no response. Her rent was almost due, and to top it off, her mom had another therapy session coming up.Ellen had worked at the Titan Consult in Manhattan for three years; that was where she had met Luke.“The one you had least expected had resulted in an interview,” her mom told her at dinner later that day. The last application she had made was for the position of secretary; at least she’d had a virtual interview for that already.“I know, mom, I just wish others would move as fast as that was,” Ellen said to her mom, frustration etched o

The universe was at a standstill as Ellen watched Leo, holding her breath as she listened. The table had turned in a way she had not expected. How was he even the CEO of the only company that had called her back and offered her employment? "Very well then, the first would be..." Leo said, trailing off at the last word. He smiled and stopped mid sentence, making her nervous as to what exactly he had in mind. "I can’t really read them off to you now; you are going to wait outside while I have it drawn up." Leo said, taunting her. He knew she would never agree to sign what he had in mind, and he was ready to watch her give up. "Okay sir." Ellen agreed; her earlier confidence not so evident now. "Yes, and be ready to sign whatever it is; as you said, you’ll do anything," Leo reminded her. She looked determined to see this through. She must really need the job; we’ll see about that, Leo thought. "If you’ll excuse me," Leo said, pointing towards the door. "Yes, of course, thank you, M

"Ellen, come to my office now!" came Leo’s voice from the other end. His hard tone didn’t help. She could feel her heart about to burst out of her chest. On trembling legs, Ellen walked into Leo’s office. Alex was seated with Leo at the lounge on the left side of the office. "Ms. Grater, come sit here," came Alex’s voice, shaking Ellen out of her frozen state. Oh no, what am I going to say? I totally forgot to go through the document yesterday, Ellen thought to herself as she sat beside Alex. Leo turned to her, his face rigid and void of emotion as he said, "Ellen, we will be making some important changes to the plan for the forth coming meeting with the board." With a trembling voice, Ellen managed to answer, Okay, sir." Glancing in Alex's direction, she saw he was not paying them any attention but was instead engrossed with something on his laptop. "The meeting has been moved; it would be taking place here on Monday, so I need you to make arrangements with other departments,"
