Boss's Sweet Secretary novel Chapter 23

Jennifer soaked herself in the bathtub. The high temperature of the bathwater gradually eased her pain. She rested her head on the edge of the bathtub and she relaxed her stiff limbs.

Hans wasn't such a rough and ruthless person before. Like his father, he was very gentle. Although he didn't talk much, he was very thoughtful and always helped her when she needed it. Although he did it secretly, she knew it was him instead of other family members.

The modification of the event design for her club during her second year of high school, the complex mathematical analysis methods for her third year of high school, as well as the extra milk and checklist in her bag during the art exam. Even when she was in college, the hilarious situation where the creepy senior avoided her like a plague after pestering her for a long time.

Thinking back, the things that Hans had done for her in private were innumerable. She had never thought about it before, until now. Now that he had become cold and indifferent to her, she really started to miss those times. Those memories were still fresh in her mind.

Since when did she realize that she had fallen in love with Hans?

Perhaps it was when she found out that he awkwardly asked his father and her mother to bring her flowers when she graduated, where she caught him red-handed even though he pretended he didn't show up. Or maybe it was when she fainted after that car accident and woke up in the hospital, he held her hands and told her, "Don't be afraid, I am here." Or maybe it was all the little things after they had spent the past ten years together. Her love and admiration for him ran deep.

However lowly and insignificant he thought of her, she still held onto a little hope in her heart, waiting for the day when he would change his mind.

Companionship was better than infatuation. Since he was willing to let her stay by his side, he must have an attachment to her.

Hans only had a day off each week. So although it was Sunday the next morning, he had to work since he took a day off on Saturday. She was his secretary, so she had to work too.
