From Neglected Wife to CEO’s Obsession novel Chapter 177

There’s no denying it—being the boss is a whole different world. His office is massive, easily twice the size of both my apartments combined. Comparing myself to him just feels like setting myself up for disappointment.

“What are you doing over there, sneaking around like you’re about to steal something?”

I forced an awkward laugh. “Boss, here you go—everything’s ready for you to check. Brand, size, cut, material, it’s all exactly like your originals. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work. I’ve still got a ton to do.”

I turned, hoping to slip out before he could say anything else.

Even Remy, who I used to think was the gold standard, just didn’t measure up.

Not wanting to get caught staring—or worse, drooling—I only glanced at him twice before looking away. “How’s the fit? I checked everything myself, so there shouldn’t be any issues.”
