Author: Yukako Midori
Genre: Manga
Rating: ***
Review: The synopsis for The CEO’s Scandalous Affair seems interesting to say the least: “Anna is a secretary in a Miami company. Her boss, Parker, is a good-looking man. Needless to say, she is attracted to him, but she never lets it show. One day Parker has a family meeting to discuss the leadership of the company after his father’s sudden death. After the family meeting, Parker decides to go to London on a whim and tells Anna to come with him. Anna can’t help but feel excited by his invitation but reminds herself that he’s still her boss. Little does she know that he’s begun to have feelings for her, too!”
Anna is an assistant to Parker who is the CEO of an influential company, however, after seeing Anna getting out of the shower Parker admits he finds her attractive and admires her skill and determination. After going out to dinner the pair realise that they are attracted to one another but want to keep their relationship professional for the time being since Anna has a past, she can’t talk about.
However, things get difficult when a spy is suspected at the company and Anna is nervous as she was accused of espionage in the past and despite being declared innocent it didn’t change what the papers wrote about her. While Anna is suspected at the beginning of the investigation Parker thinks she is innocent, and they soon transfer their relationship from professional to romantic. Things take a turn when information is still being leaked and now Anna’s past has come to light, she is the number one suspect and is let go from the company.
On her way to move back to her hometown where her life fell apart, in the beginning, Anna is heartbroken as she really liked Parker but a phone call from a man named Bally Lynch changes everything as he confirms Anna story that she is innocent and was used by the man she was dating at the time. Parker realising he was a fool to doubt Anna rushes to stop her moving and tells her that she is needed by the company, by him and that is all it takes for her to stay with him.
