Athena slowly followed Roman and entered his penthouse. It was a well-furnished and luxurious penthouse. Athena was very tired after the long wedding ceremony and wanted to go to her room and sleep as soon as possible.
"Which one is my room?" Athena asked while yawning. She looked like a disaster with her hair looking like a bird's nest.
Roman turned around and looked at her expressionlessly.
"Upstairs, first room from the left," Roman answered in a casual voice making Athena nod.
"Thanks. I will get going then. Good night Mr Morin." Athena said and greeted him a good night before making her way towards the staircase to go upstairs.
"R
It was already lunchtime by the time Athena finished making half of the report. She yawned while stretching her body. Her back was aching from sitting too long in the same posture. The office room she was given was a nice one. It was comfortable and everything was well furnished. She was given a personal computer to work on. Athena took her phone out and checked the time. Time to have some lunch. Thinking of food, her stomach grumbled. She didn't eat anything since morning and was very hungry so she decided to take a break and go to eat something. She packed her bag and was about to go out when the telephone on her desk started to ring. She became startled for a moment. She slowly picked the phon
It was around 9 pm when Athena finally finished sending the last email. She was exhausted already so she quickly put her things in her bag and grabbed her phone from her desk before finally making her way out of her cabin. She was holding the printed files in one hand and her stuff in others as she made her way towards Roman's office. The whole floor was calm and silent as everyone had already left. She sighed, thinking when she would be able to go home and sleep. Meanwhile, busy in her thoughts she finally reached Roman's office and knocked two times as usual before entering. She closed the door behind her back and glanced at Roman who was going through some files. As usual, he didn't bother to look up so she cleared her throat to get his attention to which Roman finally looked up at and before putting the file aside.
It's been two weeks since Athena joined the Morin Corporation as Roman's joint Secretary. Also, it's been three weeks since she married Roman Morin legally after signing the prenuptial contract and agreed to be his hidden wife.In the past two weeks, Roman didn't let a single opportunity go to waste to exhaust her. He did everything to make her work hard starting from making her do every single chore. She made his coffee, arranged his schedule, brought him breakfast, lunch and dinner, sent emails, and brought gifts for his clients to impress them. Everything!Athena knew he was doing all those to make her quit but she wouldn't. Instead, she did everything without any mistakes. But alas she always finds a way to mock or insult her which makes her angrier day by day.
Around 30 minutes later they all reached the five-star hotel where the party was going to take place.In the whole journey from Bianca's house to the venue, Athena almost got a headache seeing how hard Bianca was trying to impress Roman. She couldn't help but frown watching how causally Bianca was trying to get close to Roman. On the other hand, Roman didn't seem interested in her at all.He behaved politely and kept his distance much to Bianca's protest.Back to the present, Kevin parked the car and got out of the car before rushing to open the door for Roman. Roman elegantly got out of the car and went to the other side to open the car door for Bianca like a gentleman. Kevin then came to Athena's side to open the door for her but she had alr
Athena looked at the man standing a few inches away from her with a scowl. She furrowed her brows while trying to process his words. When was she flirting? He was accusing her of something that she didn't do and it made her angry. She raised her eyes and looked directly at Roman was busy glaring at her. "Excuse me, what do you mean? I didn't flirt with anyone. I was just being polite with Mr Murphy." Athena finally snapped at him. "Really? But It didn't look like just talking to me. I'm warning you Athena if you try to do something like this again or do anything that harms my reputation then I won't play nice." Roman warned her directly. His voice was neutral while his face didn't sho
Athena quietly followed Roman into the tall building of The Morin Corporation. It was already past 9 in the evening so there weren't many people around. As they quietly made their way inside, the night guard came in their direction and greeted them politely. "Good evening, Sir and Madam. Is there any emergency?" The night guard asked simply. "Good evening, Rick. How are you? Yes, I need to collect some documents from my office." Roman greeted him back before answering his question. "I'm good. Thank you." The guard Rick answered while fixing the rifles or guns on his shoulder. As his eyes collided with Athena she passed him her usual sweet smile with a nod before twirling behind Roman while
"Good Morning, Athena! You are early today!" Rhea, the receptionist's warm voice filled Athena's ears as she hurriedly took her steps forward. She paused her steps and turned around to look at Rhea with a smile. The woman was as usual dressed in a pair of palazzo suits with her hair tucked in a perfect french bun. She was a charming young woman and many men from the company sought after her but too bad she was already engaged to her college's boyfriend. "Good morning, Rhea. Yes! Mr Morin and I are going to the newly bought company for a visit, that's why." Athena smiled. Rhea nodded. "Ahh! The Navy and Grey Corporation! Good luck then!" She beamed as she wished Athena good luck while showing her perfect pearly white teeth.
Athena entered the shop and slowly closed the door behind her. She roamed her eyes throughout the shop to get a look at it. The shop was filled with many expensive-looking pieces of furniture like desks, shelves, couches, chairs and different kinds of decorative items. Everything in the store screamed money, making Athena gulp. "Excuse me, how may I help you?" A thirty-something looking man came forward and asked Athena in an overly polite voice. Athena smiled at the man. He had blonde hair and a pair of light green eyes. Dressed in a pair of black buttoned-down shirts and tailored pants, he looked kind of attractive. "Hi, I'm looking for a complete office set. Ummm you know, desk, chair and shelves." Athena tried to put the appropriate words to exp
