The ruthless CEO
CEO X EMPLOYEE
Characters
Jay At twenty-nine years old, Jay is the billionaire CEO of one of the country's most influential corporations. Cold, ruthless, and impossible to read, he built his empire with intelligence, discipline, and an iron will. Standing at 6'3", with piercing dark eyes, sharp features, and an expression that rarely changes, he carries an intimidating presence that makes people lower their gaze the moment he enters the room. Jay doesn't believe in love. He believes in control. He hates being disobeyed, never accepts failure, and always gets what he wants. He speaks only when necessary, and his words are often as sharp as a blade. Employees fear him, business rivals avoid him, and even the media calls him "The Devil in a Tailored Suit." He keeps everyone at arm's length, convinced that emotions only make people weak. The walls around his heart are built from betrayal, and he has no intention of letting anyone break them. Until one woman walks into his life... ...and for the first time, the man who controls everything finds himself losing control.
Intro
There was only one name that ruled the business world with fearโ
Park Jongseong or Jay.
Twenty-nine years old.
CEO of En- Corporation.
A billionaire.
Brilliant.
Handsome.
Powerful.
But above all...
Ruthless.
He never smiled.
He never forgave mistakes.
And he never gave anyone a second chance.
One wrong move was enough to end a career.
So when Y/n a simple intern, accidentally spilled hot coffee on his custom-made suit during her first day at work, everyone expected her to be fired.
She stood in front of his office, her hands trembling.
"I'm sorry, sir... Am I fired?" she asked quietly.
Jay looked at her in silence.
The room felt colder with every passing second.
Finally, he spoke.
"Starting today, you'll be my personal assistant."
Y/n froze.
"W-What?"
"For one month."
"But... why me?"
He slowly walked toward her until only a few inches separated them.
"Because you're the only person who looked me in the eye instead of begging for mercy."
She had no idea whether to feel relieved...
...or terrified.
What Y/n didn't know was that Jay had been carrying a painful secret for years.
Every night, after the city lights faded, he sat alone in his penthouse, holding an old photograph of the woman he had lost.
A woman he never stopped loving.
And the moment he saw Y/n...
His world stopped.
Because she looked exactly like the woman in that photograph.
Neither of them knew that this unexpected encounter would mark the beginning of a dangerous game filled with power, secrets, betrayal...
...and a love that could either heal their broken hearts or destroy them forever.*
