awessecretary.
Unfortunately, all of that was ruined that night.
After that reckless night, everything changed.
Antostill didn’t get why | would go to such lengths to degrade myself and schmy way into his bed.
All he knew was that when he woke up that morning and foundnext to him, all the admiration he had for me

At 6 pm, Antoshowed up at a dinner party thrown by their partner
with Molly in tow.
He hadn't seenall day and was kind of lost in thought while holding a glass of wine.
“Am | being too much this time?”
That thought suddenly through his mind.
Antopursed his lips, then downed the rest of his drink.
He took out his phone, about to text me, but got interrupted by the partner who cup to him.
“Mr. Kaufman, about the plan from last time...”
Antosnapped out of it, pushed aside his thoughts, and got into work
mode.
Everyone was enjoying their conversation when an out-of-place comment
broke in.
“Mr. Kaufman, this dessert is good,” Molly said, holding a chocolate cupcake and looking as naive as could be.
The chat cto a halt, and everyone looked pretty ticked off.
But Molly didn’t get the hint. She grinned and pushed her way to Antonio, trying to feed him the cake.
Caught off guard, Antoended up with chocolate and cream smeared all over his face.
Molly was shocked and reached out to wipe it off.
Antostepped back as if he had seen a ghost.

“Enough!”
Molly halted, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Mr. Kaufman, what's wrong with you? You weren't like this before.”
Antotook a deep breath, about to say something, but then he noticed. the odd looks from the partners.
When he looked their way, Jamel gave an awkward smile.
“Mr. Kaufman, handle your matters. We can talk about the plan another time.”
The others echoed.
“Right, go ahead.”
“We'll catch up next time.”
With that, they quickly left.
Antohad no excuse to stop them, and he felt too awkward to try.

A business meeting that should have gone smoothly was now a mess, all because of Molly.
Antocouldn't even think about how he’d be the laughing stock in the industry after this.
Sure enough, that was what happened.
After they left, Jamel and the others found a spot to gossip about Antonio.
“Do you think Mr. Kaufman has skind of weird thing going on?”
Jamel, a man in his fifties, couldn't hold back and spoke up first.

Brian let out a tsk.
“Maybe young people are into that sort of thing.”
Jamel shook his head, still not getting it.
“Grace from before was so much better, smart, efficient, and most importantly, she knew how to read the room.
“I just don’t get why she wouldn't leave the Stellaris Group. I've tried to headhunt her a few times, but no luck.”
Brian just smiled, not saying anything.
Truth was, he had tried to headhunttoo.
Meanwhile, Antolooked at Molly, fuming with anger.
“Molly, look what you've done!”
Molly's eyes were red, like she was really wronged.
