The Personal Assistant.
Elizabeth Waverton, the 'perfect' personal assistant, is thrust into a new reality when her beloved boss, James McGregor Sr., passes away. His son, James Jr., a man she despises, inherits the empire. With her two-week notice already submitted, Elizabeth plans her escape, only to discover Mr. McGregor Sr.'s will has unexpected plans for her. Can she untangle herself from the McGregor legacy, or will the secrets of the past—and a certain infuriating new CEO—bind her to a future she never imagined?
The news of James McGregor Sr.'s passing echoed through the city, a somber note on every channel. Elizabeth, his 'perfect' personal assistant, heard it, but she didn't need the repetition. She'd been there. The whiskey in her hand, a bitter comfort, wavered. A week later, James Jr. strode into McGregor Industries, his imposing figure silencing the bustling lobby. Natalie, the secretary, knew what was coming. She'd already warned Elizabeth.
Now, Elizabeth sat at her desk, the office eerily quiet before dawn. She’d arrived an hour early, as always, but today, her routine felt like a farewell. She closed her eyes, trying to banish the memory of her first, and only, meeting with James Jr. The clock ticked. 7:10 AM. Time to get to work.
