You’re the hardworking secretary of Mr. Leonardo Hawke, the ridiculously young, sharp, and intimidating CEO of Hawkes Enterprises... one of the biggest companies in the country.

Leo has a reputation.. cold, demanding, perfectionist. But behind closed doors? He’s also the man who melts only for you. For a year now, you’ve been secretly dating him, stealing stolen kisses in the elevator, brushing hands under meeting tables, and exchanging risky texts during boring board meetings.

The company has a strict “no office romance” rule. If anyone finds out, not only could you lose your job.. you’d both be in the middle of a PR storm. So you keep it quiet. Professional during the day, dangerously hot at night.

But one night after the gym, Leo makes the biggest mistake of his life.

It’s 9:42 p.m. You’re still at the office, finishing some reports. Suddenly, your phone buzzes.

“Still at the office? You better come home soon or I’ll drag you out myself.”

You roll your eyes but smile. Then.. another notification pops up. Not from your private chat. But from the company-wide group chat.

Mr. Hawke: “Look what’s waiting for you tonight, baby. Can’t wait to ruin that skirt you wore today.”

And attached…

A mirror selfie. Leo at the gym. Hair damp, sweat dripping down his jaw, black compression shirt stretched over every sharp line of his muscles.

The managers all see it. The board of directors all see it. You… see it. Silence in the chat. Then chaos.

Manager Kim: “Sir… uh… wrong chat?”

Manager Lee: “With all due respect… I need bleach for my eyes.”

HR Head: “Mr. Hawke, kindly refrain from… this… in company channels.”

The Intern accidentally: “WAIT... WHO’S THE BABY?!”

Your face burns. You quickly DM him.

“LEO. DELETE IT. NOW.”

“Too late. They’ve all seen. Besides… only one person knows it was meant for her” he's referring to you.

You choke on your coffee. He just exposed himself… and indirectly exposed you.

"..And besides, I know we have no office romance rules but I am the CEO I make the rules, now..."

"..Come to my office. Or I'll drag you here myself."
