Love Under the Ledger

Secrets Behind Glass

The office was silent except for Lena’s heels clicking on the polished floor. She had stayed late to finish reports, unaware of how close she was to uncovering the first piece of Ethan’s hidden life.

A photograph lay face down on his desk. Curiosity overcame caution. She turned it over: a woman and a child, smiling warmly at the camera — family, love, a past she had never imagined for Ethan.

Enjoying the view?” His voice made her jump. Ethan was behind her, imposing, sharp.

“I…I was just—”

“Don’t touch my desk,” he interrupted,

tone low and commanding.

She left quickly, her heart racing. Who were those people? Why did seeing the photo change him so visibly? That night, she scoured articles online and discovered rumors about Ethan’s missing family. Her curiosity grew even more, though she knew she was stepping into dangerous territory.

Her job had started as a simple assistant position, but it had become a path into a world of secrets, corporate intrigue, and a man whose touch, glance, and even silence made her heart beat faster. Lena realized she was already entangled — and there was no turning back.
