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

　　By the time Rose wakes up, it’s already 7:30 pm. Turning around she finds Alec missing from the bed. Quickly draping her dressing gown she goes to check upon him. The wet floor of the shower tells her he was here not till maybe a half-hour back. As she rushes to check the dining area, she finds Nelly placing things inside the big box that she carries for meals at work.


　　Not wanting to let anyone else know that they had a fight, she asks her casually, “Nelly, I woke up very late and Alec had some important work this morning. Did he eat before he left for work?”


　　Nelly gives her a soft look, “No, darling, he left a while back without eating anything or even touching his coffee. He seemed to be in a lot of rush and did not return my greeting either.”
