Rose is the sweet and kind-hearted secretary to the cold, calculative and unbelievably hot CEO, Alec. She finds herself naked, covered with only his shirt, lying in his bed after a drunken night at a corporate party.  
She is enraged and blames him for taking advantage of her but Alec swears up and down that they hadn’t spent the night together. He doesn’t tell her the full story, to protect her from further embarrassment. She relents and ends up believing him. So, she was dumbfounded when she found out a couple weeks later that she is pregnant!  
Alec is surprised but equally happy when he finds out that Rose is pregnant with his child, the heir to the Xander Business Empire. The only issue? Rose believes that since they had never shared a bed, her ex-boyfriend must be the father instead. Her ex, the CEO of a failing rival company, shows up in hopes of ensnaring Rose back to him.  
How will the over-protective and over-possessive Alec react to some other man rubbing his hands all over the secret to-be mother of his child? Will he be able to tell his secret to Rose and still have a relationship left to enjoy?

The CEO's mystery heir

　　Flashback to a few hours before Rose’s call with Derek.


　　Derek hears his dad angrily walking inside his apartment, screaming, while looking for him. “Derek!”


　　Though he hears his dad’s voice he does not even bother acknowledging it, letting his old man go through each room looking for him before he finds him.


　　He chuckles as he hears his dad’s anger rising from the next room and then suddenly, they are face to face.


　　His father’s voice booms inside the room, “Still playing your juvenile games. I am ashamed to even call you my son. You have been an utter waste of space your entire life. Not only have you wasted the money that I spent on your education, feeding, and clothing a piece of filth like you, but you are now making a bigger dent in my resources by leading a life of excesses while the company continues to go deeper into losses.”


　　Hearing this Derek feels a wave of anger rising inside him but his dad persists.
