She smacked his hand away. Memories from last night slowly trickled back into her mind. She was now completely out of sorts. She had actually done such a thing!
Jackson frowned, “What? You were just apologizing, but now you’ve become hostile? I’m still angry…”
She was speechless and chose to slip away, “I… I didn’t do anything wrong anyway. At least, nothing concerning. I’ve apologized, so we’re even. I’ve got work to do!” Then, she stood up and got ready to leave, but he pulled her back down, “One more time, the office is quite empty now…”
She felt that he had gone crazy. This was the office, “No! Let me go! We’ll talk about this at home!”
He refused to comply. He bent forward and sucked on her earlobe. His teasing nearly drove her to the brink. She struggled half-heartedly, nearly giving in. Fear brought a different kind of high. She was only afraid that someone from the office might burst in. She clearly remembered not locking the door…
She was extremely red in the face when she emerged from the office. Aye approached her curiously, “Why is your face so red?”
She covered her face with her hands and rushed into the washroom, “Nothing, had a fight!”
Aye was stupefied. Her face was slapped red. Had she been slapped? Did her boss have a tendency to hit women? From that day onwards, her view of Jackson had changed from admiration and esteem to… despise?
