She manages Adrian's schedule, his confidential files, and the silent machinery behind a powerful corporation. But Elena carries a secret. She didn't take the job by chance. Behind her calm professionalism lies a hidden mission—one that could expose corruption, destroy reputations, and bring Adrian's empire crashing down. The closer they work together, the harder it becomes to ignore the undeniable tension between them. Late-night meetings turn personal. Stolen glances become dangerous.
