Lyla Knight thought she knew her husband, the enigmatic and stoic Noah Anderson—CEO of a billion-dollar empire and the golden bachelor of City A. Their marriage was a quiet agreement, a union arranged by their families to ensure Lyla's safety and happiness. For two years, Noah was away expanding his business, and Lyla pursued her dream of becoming a singer, believing they were just two polite strangers bound by a contract.

But appearances can be deceiving.

Noah Anderson, the king of the business world, has always been a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Beneath his calm demeanor lies an obsession—a love so deep that he’s been silently protecting his innocent "little rabbit" from the shadows. When he finally returns, his carefully constructed facade begins to crack.

“Sweetheart,” he murmurs one day, his voice a mix of pleading and determination, “I let them think I didn’t love you enough to show you off. But now, can we go public? Let me slap their faces with the truth.”

Even the king of hell is willing to make puppy eyes to convince his wife to acknowledge him as her husband—a sight that leaves his assistant Cheng fleeing the office in shock.

But Lyla’s world is truly shaken when she stumbles into Noah’s private library and finds a hidden treasure trove: old, secretly taken photos of herself from years before they were married. Her heart pounds as she backs away, only to collide with the man himself. His familiar scent surrounds her as his deep, velvety voice whispers near her ear, “It has always been you, sweetheart.”

Caught between the shy, gentlemanly facade she believed in and the possessive, passionate man he truly is, Lyla must navigate the truth about her husband and their secret marriage.

My Boss is My Secret Husband

The host's eyes lit up as he read the question.

"Wow! Now it's getting interesting. So, Ms. Lyla, how are you going to answer this?"

I was already in the limelight, and I could feel the weight of every gaze on me. If I said yes, that I was in a relationship, the internet had the power to dig up my entire past—let alone my relationship. Everything I had worked for, all my achievements, could be overshadowed in an instant if my background was exposed.

But if I said no, maybe people would believe it. Maybe they wouldn't dig deeper. But it would be a lie. Not just to the world, but to myself.

I had a strong feeling that even if he didn't say anything, even if he didn't ask me why I had hidden our relationship, it would still hurt him. And that was the last thing I wanted.

Thinking for a moment, an idea formed in my mind, and my eyes lit up.

Let's play reverse psychology on the audience.
