Cassidy Miles has never known an easy life. Tragedy follows her like a shadow, and after losing her mother, she is left completely alone at just 20 years old. Desperate to survive, she takes a janitorial job at the powerful Van der Bilt Corporation, hoping for a fresh start.

But instead of stability, she finds herself trapped in a dangerous game with Logan Van der Bilt—the ruthless CEO who seems determined to make her life even harder. What starts as a simple job soon unravels into a tangled web of secrets, betrayal, and shocking truths. As Cassidy is drawn deeper into a world she never expected, she must decide how far she’s willing to go to survive—and whether the price of the truth is too high to pay.

Bound to the Ruthless CEO

I couldn't sit still when we arrived at Logan's car. He talked to the bouncer again after we put Sophie in the back of his car. I remembered we also put Sophie in the back of his car on Chris's birthday.

I waited for him to finish talking with the bouncer. He nodded to what the bouncer said and turned to me. I almost jumped when he stared at me while listening to the bouncer's whisper. I sat properly in the front seat and gently closed the door.

"Hmm. Men are such jerks," Sophie muttered in the back of Logan's car. She fell asleep when we put her there earlier. Now she's saying all sorts of things again.

Logan walked towards the car. I closed the door completely and waited for him to get in. As he entered, he stretched, adjusting his seatbelt. He grabbed the steering wheel and took a deep breath.

"Uhm, Sophie lives in the building with me now. She is not going home to Ma'am Linda's," I said.

"You'll both sleep at my place." He said.
