The project lasted three months.
Grant still rejected one proposal after another. But after every revision request, he began leaving genuine, professional feedback.
He stopped using work as an excuse to ask me out and call me late at night.
Sometimes, after meetings ended, he would watch me pack up my laptop.
It looked like he had so many things he wanted to say. But in the end, all he ever said was, "Drive safe."
He was finally learning how to respect boundaries.
But it was too late.
Selena, however, refused to stop.
She spread rumors on anonymous workplace forums. She claimed I only entered the core project because I had slept my way up.
She also claimed I had been the one who ruined her relationship with Grant years ago.
The rumors quickly spread throughout the company.
