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

　　As a bunch of photos go flying all over, Rose turns her head trying to make out what’s on each of those pictures.


　　There were pictures of Derek mostly making out or having sex with different women in different places. There were also pictures of Derek with some shady-looking men but from a distance, Rose couldn’t figure out what was happening in those.


　　She turns to Alec, “So you knew all along and never said anything? Were you laughing at me behind my back every time you saw me?”


　　Before Alec can say anything, Derek, who is as shocked to see the pictures as Rose, says “Rose, these are pictures from before I got together with you. Yes, I have cheated on you a few times and I have come clean to you about it, but the truth remains, you are still carrying my baby. I won’t let this guy manipulate you into pushing me out of this equation. I will not step away from you or my kid.”


　　Alec thinks for a moment before saying, “Fine! Let’s prove it.”
