My Billionaire Boss Is My Twin's Daddy
Yes. Is there a problem?
Hilary Chin
“Ugh, traffic again. If I’m late one more time, Mr. Haskins will fire me for sure.”
Her best friend, Lila, over the phone
Lila su
“Relax, Hil. You’ve survived worse. Just don’t spill coffee on him again.”
Hilary Chin
Laughs nervously “Don’t remind me. He looked like he wanted to sue me for emotional damage.”
Lila su
“Well, that’s Dwayne Haskins for you. Cold, untouchable, and disgustingly handsome.”
Hilary Chin
“Handsome is an understatement. He’s… he’s like a walking empire in a tailored suit. Too bad he’s also my boss.”
Lila su
“And off-limits. Don’t forget that part.”
Hilary Chin
Sighs “Trust me, I know. I’m just an assistant—he’s the billionaire CEO. Our worlds don’t mix.”
Hilary rushes into the glass building, heels clacking on the marble floor. She breathes in, trying to look composed.
Receptionist
“You’re cutting it close, Hilary. He’s already in.”
Hilary Chin
Whispers “Great. Just great.”
She knocks lightly before stepping into the office. Dwayne Haskins looks up from behind his massive desk, expression unreadable.
Dwayne Haskins
“Miss Chin. Two minutes late.”
Hilary Chin
Stammering “I—I’m sorry, sir. Traffic—”
Dwayne Haskins
Cuts her off “Excuses waste my time. Did you bring the reports?”
Hilary Chin
Gets a folder on his desk quickly “Yes, sir. All updated.”
Dwayne Haskins
Flips through the pages, silent for a moment “Hmm. At least your work compensates for your tardiness.”
Hilary Chin
Whispers under her breath “Thank God.”
Dwayne Haskins
Raises an eyebrow “What was that?”
Hilary Chin
Smiles nervously “Nothing, sir.”
She studies her for a moment, his gaze sharper than she can handle. She looks away, her cheeks warm.
Dwayne Haskins
“You’ll be accompanying me to the charity gala tonight. Wear something appropriate. Seven sharp.”
Hilary Chin
Blinks in shock “M-me? At the gala? With you?”
Dwayne Haskins
“Yes. Is there a problem?”
Hilary Chin
Shakes her head quickly “N-no problem at all, sir.”
Hilary Chin
As she leaves his office, her heart races. Lila’s words echo in her head: cold, untouchable, and disgustingly handsome… and now she’s supposed to be his date?
You'll do
Hilary’s tiny apartment, the night of the gala. Lila is helping her get ready.
Lila su
“Stand still, Hil. I can’t zip this if you keep squirming.”
Hilary Chin
nervously “I don’t even know why he picked me. He could have taken any model, or one of those women who practically throw themselves at him.”
Lila su
Grins “Maybe he likes women who spill coffee on his suit. It’s… memorable.”
Hilary Chin
Groans “Please don’t remind me of that disaster.”
Lila su
“Relax. You look stunning. He won’t know what hit him.”
Hilary glances at the mirror, unsure. The sleek black dress hugs her figure. For once, she doesn’t look like the overworked assistant—she looks like she belongs.
Hilary Chin
Softly “Do you think… I’m making a fool of myself?”
Lila su
“No, Hil. Tonight, just remember—you’re more than his assistant. You’re you. And you’re enough.”
Later, outside the grand hotel. A luxury car waits. Dwayne steps out, crisp in his tuxedo, his presence commanding the night.
Dwayne Haskins
eyes narrowing as he takes her in “Miss Chin.”
Hilary Chin
Blushes “Good evening, sir.”
Dwayne Haskins
Offers his arm “Shall we?”
She hesitates for half a second before slipping her hand into his arm. His strength, his heat—it makes her heart race in ways she tries to ignore.
Hilary Chin
“I… I hope I look appropriate.”
Dwayne gazes at her briefly, then looks ahead.
Dwayne Haskins
“You’ll do.”
Hilary Chin
Mutters under her breath “You’ll do? Wow, thanks.”
Dwayne Haskins
Glances sideways “Something to say?”
Hilary Chin
Forces a smile “Nope. Nothing at all.”
They enter the ballroom, all eyes turning toward them. Whispers ripple—Dwayne Haskins never brings a date, let alone his assistant.
Businessman’s Wife, whispering: “Who’s she? She doesn’t look like the usual type.”
Businessman: “Assistant, probably. But why bring her here?”
Hilary feels the weight of their stares, her palms sweating, but Dwayne’s hand stays firm on hers, steadying her in the storm of attention.
You underestimate yourself
Hilary and Dwayne move deeper into the ballroom. Waiters glide by with champagne. The chandeliers glitter like stars overhead.
Hilary Chin
Whispering “Everyone’s staring…”
Dwayne Haskins
Calmly “Let them.”
Hilary Chin
Frowns “Easy for you to say. You’re used to this.”
Dwayne Haskins
Glances down at Hilary “And you’re not?”
Hilary Chin
look at her boss “I’m used to spreadsheets and coffee runs, not… this.”
Dwayne Haskins
smirks faintly “You’ll adapt.”
Before she can argue, a tall woman in a glittering silver gown approaches. She looks at Hilary like she’s something stuck to her shoe.
Veronica Lin
“Dwayne, darling. And who is this?”
Dwayne Haskins
“My assistant. Hilary Chin.”
Veronica Lin
Arches a brow “Assistant? How… unconventional. You’ve never brought one before.”
Hilary Chin
Forces a polite smile “Nice to meet you.”
Veronica ignores her, eyes still on Dwayne.
Veronica Lin
“Don’t tell me you’re changing your type.”
Dwayne Haskins
“I don’t have a type.” *cold tone
Veronica pouts, then drifts away. Hilary exhales slowly, her nerves rattled.
Hilary Chin
Murmurs “Wow. I feel so welcome.”
Dwayne Haskins
“You handled her better than most would.”
Hilary Chin
Snorts softly “Better? I thought I was one stutter away from disaster.”
Dwayne Haskins
Quietly “You underestimate yourself.”
His words, so unexpected, linger with her longer than they should. She looks away quickly, her heart thudding.
