They had been interrogating me since forever! We are delivering illegal drugs to Bagan City when a black van stopped us and five armed police in uniform arrested us. I don't know where my other two companions were but this is the first time I came with them. We were blindfolded. "I don't know what you mean. I just came with my two companions. I was hired as a Stock Clerk in that small enterprise." Tears keep rolling down my face as well as blood. My eyes are covered and I am tied in upside down. My face is already aching with so many bruises but these officers still had no intention to stop. Another slap and sequence of blows landed on my upper extremities. "Aahhhrrgggg!" I shouted in pain! ‘I will never let my boss down though this might be the most horrible thing ever happen to me!’  I can feel that my body have already reached its limit. I feel like a vegetable hanging on the ceiling. "Who are you fooling?! Just tell us who your boss is and let's get this over with!" He shouted in my face and tore my skin with his punch. I've heard the door open and footsteps coming near us. “Sir, somebody has arranged with the station and bailed her out." "Release her!" The officer that interrogated me said. "Yes, Sir!"  Two people untied me, I was dragged out of the room and was seated on a car, still wearing the blindfold. My limbs are fractured, ribs broken, swollen face and torn skin. I am in total agony. "Are you okay?”  In a worried voice, he said. I can recognize that this voice belongs to boss. “N-no, I am not. I am in real great pain.” Sobbing, I said in a hoarse voice. I am really grateful of him for taking me out of that hell. “I will send you to the hospital." He clicked his tongue. I almost can't make a sound at the corner, I settled in the most comfortable sitting position. "Don't worry, it's just an initiation."             -----ooOoo----- Eunice’s POV Wearing the most expensive brand of dress, I enter the company. Putting on my cold expression, I managed to the elevator and pushed the button to the top floor. I am Eunice Frunt, CEO of Nice Fashion Enterprise. My company has been dominating the fashion market these years and the one I am wearing now is the latest limited edition of my own company. I used to be one of the shareholders of this company. When faced with bankruptcy, I bought the sixty percent shares. Now I own the seventy percent shares that made me the CEO. I actually don’t care about fashion. I can go out to the mall wearing shirt, shorts and slippers but considering the lives of the employees, I thought I can help them by buying the biggest share. Though many people think that this company will never recover, I put my effort and money in it to lift it up again and penetrate the market and made it on top. “Miss E, there is a problem in the production department. An employee was disabled because of an accident. It needs your personal appearance.” Ann said when Eunice was seated to her chair. “What happen?” I asked looking straight on my secretary’s eyes. These hazel brown eyes matched my cold expression that renders all my employees weak to their knees. “T-the head m-machine operator assigned his task to the intern and the intern turned off the wrong engine when they are having equipment maintenance. The employee’s arm was accidentally cut in the automatic fabric cutter.” She said in one go while stuttering. “He already knew what the precautions are of being a machine operator yet he neglected his work and risked the safety of others!” I slam my table. Seeing my secretary shiver, I stood up and walk out of the office. Entering my Lamborghini sports car, I drove fast to the factory. I am standing inside the Head Machine operator’s office. “Why did you neglect your duty?” I asked the head machine operator.             -----ooOoo----- Ann’s POV “Why did you neglect your duty?” She asked with a fierce look. She’s like a tigress in the battle field. “M-miss E… I n-needed to check the o-other engines thus I entrusted the intern to turn off the engine.” Shivering with fear, he hung his head down. “So that’s the reason why you are enjoying your coffee and know about the situation late. Are you saying that the CCTV is lying?” He was rendered speechless by her remark. “I… I’m s-sorry Miss E, this w-will never happen again.” He said while his face changed from pale to bright red. “Good! You can go home now and take a rest. I know that today’s accident has exhausted most of us.” She said and turns around to head out. “T-thank you Miss E.” He was nearly crying when a piece of relief overwhelmed his heart. A smirk made its way to his face. He knew he is good enough that his boss will never fire him. “Clear his desk. Immediately hire a suitable person for his position. I don’t want to keep an irresponsible employee. Give the affected personnel money for assistance and process his insurance. He cannot work here anymore.”  She said to me. “Y-yes Miss E. Do you want to take part on the interview?” I already know how my boss works. She doesn’t give a damn to those people that make mistakes and she never gives a second chance. “Yes, schedule my time this Wednesday. I will be there in the final interview.”           -----ooOoo----- “Miss E, the applicants are ready for the interview.” I said and escorted her to the interview hall. “How many had made it to the final? Are they worthy of my time?” She asked me while we are still in the elevator. “There is an outstanding applicant that suited the position well. His name is Will Blues and has a working experience of at least 5 years as machine operator.” I said and saw her brows join as one line. A complicated look flashed through her face. ‘This is the first time I saw an expression in her face.’ “Who did you say?”             -----ooOoo----- Eunice’s POV   “There is an outstanding applicant that suited the position well. His name is Will Blues and has a working experience of at least 5 years as machine operator.” Ann said. “Who did you say?” I momentarily black out. ‘Am I hearing the wrong name?! Not him please…no, maybe I’m just… maybe it’s somebody having the same name with him. Okay, just keep your calm.’ “Miss E, please take your seat. These are the application form of the applicants who made it to the final.” My secretary said.   Seven applicants had finished their interview but I can’t find any of them suitable for the vacant position. I am consumed of the thought of meeting him... again. What will I say? What will be his reaction if he sees me? ‘Damn! What are you dawdling about? You are already the CEO of this company yet you are being stubborn in front of your applicant! Get a hold of yourself!’ “Good morning Mr. Blues. I think I don’t need to ask you to tell us about yourself for we know each other, right? So, what can you offer to my company?” gathering all confidence I built through these years, I ask him stressing the word ‘my’. I see him gaping and lost in words. Those eyes… those grey eyes that made me change... and pushed me to be the better version of myself…
