Chapter 2
Emily spent the entire night studying the folder Alex had given her, determined to make a good impression. She arrived at the office early, her heart racing with anticipation.
As she settled at her desk, Alex emerged from his office, his eyes scanning the room. "Good morning, Emily. I trust you're ready for your first task?"
Emily nodded, trying to appear confident.
"I need you to prepare a report on the Smith account by the end of the day," Alex said, his voice firm. "I want it perfect. No mistakes."
Emily nodded, her mind racing. She worked tirelessly, double-checking every detail.
Just as she finished, Alex appeared at her desk. "Let me see it," he said, his eyes narrowing as he scanned the report.
Emily held her breath, waiting for his verdict.
"It's... acceptable," Alex said finally. "But I expect more. This is Thompson Industries, not some mediocre company. We strive for perfection."
Emily felt a surge of disappointment, but she refused to give up. She was determined to prove herself, no matter what it took.
As the day went on, Emily faced one challenge after another. Alex pushed her to her limits, testing her skills and resolve.
But Emily refused to back down. She was determined to succeed, no matter what Alex threw her way.
