I, Eli Marks, was the illegitimate son of Gregory Marks the President of the Marks & Wills Foundation in Utah. 

Two years ago, I was saved by Utah Billionaire and Chairman Armand James of Armand Inc., as my father Gregory Marks whipped me for being disobedient at a VIP lounge in Salt Lake City: Hampton Inn. The two were born nemesis and never saw eye to eye as the two companies had competed for a decade. 

Two years later, Pa sent my profile to Chairman Armand's office after they advertised for an open position of a secretary for the Chairman without my knowledge. Pa insisted that I had to ensure that I was hired or else he would continue to brutally abuse me and make my mother suffer. If I were hired, I would become a spy for Pa, giving him all the trade secrets and dirt for Armand Inc. 

At the end of the interview, Chairman Armand announced that I had been hired. Hired by a Tyrant boss who controlled everything around him from his company to his family had even set rules around him making him the most feared and ruthless person in Utah. Armad had risen from the gutter and made my name for myself by leading the largest company in Utah and becoming the first bachelor billionaire to ever exist.
 
The chemistry between us grew and our relationship developed so fast. But we both carried the burden from our past as the demons kept haunting us and pulling us apart. Will Armand ever forgive me when he finds out that I am a spy sent by Pa, to Infiltrate and get the dirt on Armand Inc.? Will the feelings we have for each other survive all the treachery of the corporate world?

EXCERPT

“Stop” I raised my hands in defense to keep the distance between Chairman Armand and me.

“That my dear Eli Marks, is a vocabulary that does not exist in my life “He smirked down at me as he moved closer and pressed his body to mine. My hands ended up pressed on his chest as my eyes flashed in anger. I swallowed hard as I felt the sizzling chemistry that brewed between us rise and my bottom lip trembled as a result. 

“You are just proving to me what everyone in Utah says about you “I muttered through gritted teeth hoping my crude words would push him away and make him stop advancements.

“Pray tell, what do they say about me, sweet Eli?” He drawled as his head lowered further and his lips were only inches away as our breaths tangled with each other and the scent of wine mingled between us. 

“That you, Armand James, are a Tyrant. “I blurted out.

“Thank you for the compliment, Eli Marks “He smirked at me and my eyes widened at the realization that he was unfazed by my words, and in the next instant his lips brushed with mine and that is how we sealed our fate.

TYRANT BILLIONAIRE'S SECRETARY

Hours later I stepped into the café, grateful for the familiar smell of fresh coffee and the low hum of conversation that filled the small space. After the morning, I had had, I needed this—something normal, something grounding. My head was still spinning from all the dead-end calls, and I was starting to feel like I was chasing shadows in a fog. A strong cup of coffee was not going to solve all my problems, but at least it would clear some of the haze.

The line was not long, just a couple of people ahead of me, and I was content to wait, my mind half on the task at hand and half still replaying my conversation with Jacob. Chen Wei, Bruno, Daniel Wu… It all felt like puzzle pieces that were not fitting together yet. But I will get there. I had to.

As I shuffled forward in line, I glanced around the café, scanning the tables and booths. That is when I saw him. Eli Marks.

ARE YOU SEEING SOMEONE ?
