Mission: Pure Love

"Beep! Player 001 is detected to be increasingly unwilling to complete the mission. A Mid-Tier Punishment will be given, reflected within the next 24 hours!" Another punishment? Fine! I wanted to see what this stupid app would try next.I couldn't even concentrate on my presentation deck anymore and just waited anxiously. Ten minutes later, my phone rang. It was the hospital. The call came from Bianca Biles, a nurse at the hospital where Grandma had been admitted. She had asked me for my number earlier."Nate, I overheard Dr. Ferrell discussing your grandmother. He said that she was in terrible condition, and I thought I'd let you know so you'll have enough time to prepare yourself."I swear my heart stopped when the call ended. All the color had drained from my face.Bianca had kept talking after breaking the bad news to me, but I hadn't been listening to her. I couldn't understand why Grandma's condition would deteriorate so suddenly. My thoughts were all a mess.If this was

As if that hadn't been bad enough, I once had to take a rain check on Derrick because Grandma had gotten terribly ill. He had then cursed and insulted her right in front of my face.I couldn't take it anymore and told him I was breaking up with him.A second later, Derrick exploded over the phone, cursing and yelling at me. "You slut! I haven't even slept with you yet! How dare you dump me!"Finally, he had shown his true colors because of how furious he was.But no matter how angry or threatening he got, I didn't care. I was determined to break up with him."Hmph! Did you really think I'd have spent so much on you if it wasn't because you looked like a goody-two-shoes? Just you wait! I'll have my revenge!"And things were left unresolved like that.The next day, everyone in the trainee team looked at me with judgment in their eyes. Rumors about me spread like wildfire.They said I lived a double life, that I was a slut with a massive body count. They also said that I was a gol

I was very sensitive to the sound of Derrick's footsteps because of my hellish experience with him. I would always hear them every time he walked toward me, his sharp eyes warning me I would never escape him.But wait… He would only walk like that toward me. Did that mean he knew that I was in here?"Nate?"My face had turned completely ashen in the camera. The man on the call seemed to have also heard Derrick's voice, but he didn't say a thing.The black toy was still stuck inside me, but I didn't dare to move a muscle. I also didn't dare to put my clothes on. I was just shaking and shivering in great fear.The stall doors started creaking as Derrick opened them, one after another, like he was playing a game of hide-and-seek with me. His words grew nastier as he sought me out."Which stall are you in, Natey? I saw you walk in here 20 minutes ago. Come on, tell me what kind of fun you've been having on your own."Were you touching yourself? Did it feel good? Don't you find it

A shadow suddenly loomed over me. A dark figure appeared in my peripheral vision, blocking the faint glow from the moonlight through the window."Need some help, Nathan?"A warm, deeply magnetic voice suddenly came from above my head, and I felt a shiver go down my spine. Something strange stirred inside me.However, I didn't have time to think about it. I clearly needed help with my work, and urgently too.I nodded, and Felix brought his laptop over and sat next to me. We were so close that I could even pick up a faint smell of perfume on him. It was a very unique scent, one I hadn't encountered before. I didn't know which brand it was from, but his scent made me lose my senses.Felix was a lot more knowledgeable than I expected. He didn't sound like a newbie trainee when he talked about market research. In fact, he sounded more like an experienced businessman who'd already been in the industry for years."Oh… I guess that makes sense…"Even though I had joined the trainee te

Derrick zoomed in and focused on Mr. Rosewood's first half of the sentence, his face lighting up with joy.If the proposal was accepted, it meant that he would be put in charge of this project. The company would be set to profit from it, and if things went the way he expected, it would give him a massive head start in his career!"Yes, Mr. Rosewood! I won't deny that there may be some errors in my calculations, but it was all because we were in such a rush last night that we didn't manage to double-check the figures."While explaining, Derrick kept glancing at Winter in the back, silently asking her to back him up.After all, she was Mr. Rosewood's daughter. If she said something in his favor, his name would be cleared, and he could pretend that none of this ever happened.Winter saw Derrick glancing at her for help, but she didn't say a thing. Instead, she shifted in her seat, found a more comfortable position, and crossed her arms on her chest, waiting to watch more drama unfold
