After looking at her for a long time, Mason himself didn’t even know how to feel. Suddenly he banged his fist angrily on the bed, stood up, and glared at her. Looking at her naked body, he took a deep breath to suppress his desire, then quickly turned around to leave the room. Soon, the sound of running water could be heard from the bathroom.
Grace was lying on the bed, with tears still pouring down her face. After she had recovered a little, she turned around and used the sheet to cover her body. She didn’t know what to do. She loved him and wished desperately for some kind of romantic love. Mason, however, had always insulted her and treated her this way. She really didn’t know how long their seesaw game could last.
The dim light did little to fight off the darkness of the night, nor the shadow on her heart.
Located in the golden section of this city, the office building of Thomas’ Corporation stood 80 stories tall. With a high density of businesses and busy traffic, the land in this area was so expensive that only Thomas’ Corporation could have the ability to buy this building as its headquarter.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, it was the busiest time in the office. In the office building, the sound of typing at computers formed a consistent drone throughout the day. Sometimes white-collar workers holding documents passed by, all of them in a frantic hurry.
In the central conference hall, which was located on the top floor, Mason, the president, was having a meeting with the senior management staff. Grace was waiting outside, with a folder in her arms. Leaning against the wall, she did little except stare at the clock, watching time pass by.
She didn’t know what she would do about Mason. After a long time of knowing each other, he clearly didn’t love her, without any regard for her feelings at least. Perhaps he was just interested in her body, which was only due to the pleasure he got from conquering women. Grace, however, still liked him a lot.
One year ago, Grace attended an interview to work for this company. The final interviewer was Mason. When she had met him, he was reclining on his chair with his fingers interlocked on his abdomen. He was so casual, and it was his casual attitude that made him distinctive. His eyes were so delicate; his thin lips were slightly exposing his beautiful teeth. Under the sunlight, he appeared to be an impossibly handsome man.
From that moment, she was attracted to him. After the interview, she became his personal secretary, so she had more opportunities to be in contact with him and marvel at his outstanding business talents. Eventually, she fell in love with him. A man of such high quality was always easy to be loved by women, and Grace was no exception. It had never occurred to her though that he was a devil.
He knew she loved him, but he still toyed with her emotions, as if he was happy to see that she lived an unhappy life. She thought about the situation at the hotel again. Her body was still bruised from his love bites, while the faint scent of humility lingered on her skin.
She bowed her head timidly, with her hands clutching the folder and pen tightly. She didn’t know why she still persisted. If she continued to stay here, he would only bully her even more. She had already been desperate this morning. Would she still wait for that cruel hearted man? Was it all worth it?
Grace thought for a long time. Then she looked at the closed door of the conference hall, and there was no sign of anyone about to leave. She bit her lower lip and finally turned around to go back to her office, sure that she had made up her mind.
She had decided that she was going to resign! She must leave him. She would no longer stay here and be humiliated.
Once she was back in her office, Grace began to write her letter of resignation. While she was writing it, her eyes began to well up with tears. She had persisted for a whole year, and after all that, she was giving up. However, what could she do if she didn’t give up? That man had never loved her. After finishing the resignation letter, she found a box and started to put all her things inside it.
Her assistant Nancy was not in the office, so there was no one to stop her. She quickly packed her things up, then sat on the desk and waited for Mason to return from his meeting.
After about an hour of waiting, Mason finally came back. Grace stood up and greeted him back to the office as usual.
However, the moment that Mason saw her, he said to her coldly, “How can you leave during the meeting? What if I order something?” His tone was accusatory and hurtful.
Grace was so upset, with her head lowered, she said, “Sir, I have thought for a long time. I still feel that I cannot adapt to this job.”
Mason was about to step into his own office, but upon hearing her words, he stopped and turned around to stare at her, “What?”
Grace dared not to look at him but bit her lower lip and answered, “I want to resign!”
Mason stared at her for a long time, then smiled coldly, “Are you sure you’re not joking?”
Grace didn’t look at him. She replied firmly, “I’m not joking. This is a decision that I have carefully considered!”
Mason sneered as he fixed his tie. Calmly, he walked into his office and said, “I’m just going to ignore what you’ve said, get back to work.”
Grace finally raised her head, followed him into his office, and said, “I’m not joking. I have already written my letter of resignation. I’m very serious.” With this, she handed him the letter.
Turning around to inspect her and the letter, Mason laughed, “Except me and this Corporation, who is going to give you a job with both a high salary and good welfare? Do you think you can live a better life after leaving me? Your sister is still at school. Without any parents, who will help you afford her tuition? Besides, you are just a graduate from an average university, where can you find a job as good as this?”
Mason’s words hit Grace like a bullet. She bit her lower lip and said confidently, “Even if it means I starve to death, I still want to resign. It’s better than being humiliated and insulted here!” She put her letter of resignation on his table.
“Are you still mad about what I did in the hotel?” Mason stared at her as if he was trying to gauge her reaction. Grace, however, didn’t respond to him, which made him angry. In a fit of rage, Mason took the letter and quickly tore it apart.
Shocked, Grace shouted at him, “You! Why do you tear my resignation apart?”
“I have the right to refuse my employee’s resignation,” Said Mason with a wry smile.
