“I’m very sorry about this. This will never happen again…I promise…” I apologized desperately.
Not only did I break the rule of dating another colleague, but the CEO caught me and now I was an emotional mess right in front of him. How did the career that I tried so hard to build lead me here?
Ace looked at me with passive eyes as if my apology did not reach him at all. His hazel brown eyes were cold, and he looked unimpressed and unmoved by my apology. He probably didn’t believe a single word that I had just said, and I couldn’t find it in me to blame him either.
I never thought that I would have to ever ask something like this, but it was better to get this over and done with directly…
“Sorry but…am I going to be fired?” I asked directly while I dreaded his answer.
