Fatal Flirtation: The CEO’s Unraveling

After losing both parents, Clara Morgan was taken in by the Windsor family—a household bound to her by an arranged childhood marriage pact. On graduation day, she witnessed Ethan Windsor, the heir she’d secretly loved for years, entangled with the prom queen in the home. Without a word, she walked away.

Years later, fueled by quiet vengeance, Clara joined Hartwell Enterprises as the personal secretary to Sebastian Hartwell—New York’s most ruthless billionaire and its most untouchable bachelor. The night she succeeded in seducing him, regret flooded her. She sobbed and begged, but Sebastian refused to relent.



He tossed her an envelope thick with cash. "$1,000,000. Choose between contraception or abortion."

Clara swallowed her tears. "Thank you, Mr. Hartwell."

When Clara later tried to resign, Sebastian shredded her letter. "Step outside this door," he hissed, "and I’ll make your life in New York a waking hell."



Then came the tabloid scandal: photos of Sebastian kneeling in pouring rain to tie Clara’s shoelaces, his designer suit drenched. His assistant asked, "Shall we bury the headlines?"



Sebastian’s reply was ice-cold. "Pay every outlet to keep it trending—until she agrees to be my wife."
