42 Once in a Lifetime Opportunity
It came as no surprise to me that I couldn’t go to sleep at all that night and that was because I couldn’t stop thinking about Ace and what he did to me. I had no idea how long I had been standing here under the shower as warm water splashed on my body from above. Although it had been many hours since then, I could still feel his touch on every single part of my body that he had caressed. My eyes closed blissfully before a soft sigh escaped my lips as I recalled both his tender and his rough touches.
I can’t believe I let him touch me like that. He’s the CEO of the company that I work for, so it was still hard for me to imagine that we did that and we also did it in his office of all places. He made me cum so hard...it felt too good...
I covered my face with my hands as embarrassment washed over me in waves and I knew that I was blushing. Although there was clearly no one else there to witness my embarrassed reaction, I felt shy towards myself. If what Ace said was true, then the things that he did to me today didn’t even compare to what we did together that night at the hotel.
“Arghhhhhh!” I let out a frustrated scream as my hands pulled on my hair.

After another long while of standing under the warm water, I realized that nothing good would come of me just wasting my time and standing there. I better get out before my skin starts to shrivel off of my meat and bones.
‘Project Alpha Kick-off’
That was the message that popped up on the notification on my phone. It was already evening but someone was still busy at work and had sent a meeting appointment in my calendar for a meeting right at the start of tomorrow’s working day.
‘Alpha project’
.....
What on earth is that? Regardless, it sounded very important. While drying my hair with a towel with one hand, I used my other hand to click and scroll into the content of the meeting invitation. I gasped in shock when my eyes landed on the list of meeting attendees.
“Oh My God...” I whispered more in amazement than in shock.
Ace was the chairperson of the meeting but that wasn’t what I was gawking at. The other meeting participants were the top talents that I have always dreamt of working with. This is Jeremy, the rising star of the creative department. Many of his commercials were nominated for awards and he’s still so young too. He must be around my age or even younger!
Richard is rumored to be the next head of planning. Another genius in the company that I have always admired for his spot-on and cost-efficient planning for production and marketing. He’s also rumored to be a mathematical genius. If that was the case, I was sure that he must be the best looking one out there. He was tall and super-hot. It is common knowledge that many women in the company have their sights set on him despite the ‘no dating’ rule. Julianna, the star of the marketing team that works more closely with Ace than the current head of marketing. She was hand-picked by Ace himself and then he somehow snatched her from one of our competitor companies.
My eyes must have been as wide and round as saucers as I stared at the list. There were other famous people in the company in the list. This really was the dream team comprising of the top talent just like my manager had told me. She wasn’t lying at all. It had always been a distant dream of mine to work with some of these amazing people so I couldn’t quite believe it that I would get the chance to work with all of them all at once on this project.
Is this even real?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI slapped my cheek so hard that it stung. Although it was painful, a wide smile formed on my lips when I got the confirmation that this must be reality.
‘If you work as my secretary, I’ll put you on all those projects so that you can learn. You can flourish while you watch and learn with the best of the best,’
Ace’s convincing words came back to me, and I could hear his voice bouncing around in my mind. I guess he wasn’t lying at all when he said that I would learn from the best of the best. The names of the people on this list were truly the ‘best of the best’ not just in this company but probably in the entire industry as well.
My heart was beating so fast as I clutched my phone tightly in my hand with a mix of nervousness and excitement. This was a rare opportunity that I would probably stumble upon once in a lifetime; however, it didn’t take me long to realize that it was an opportunity that I shouldn’t take. I plopped down weakly on my bed as I stared regretfully at the meeting invitation on my phone screen.
The timing of everything was just too perfect that it was suspicious. After I supposedly had a one-night stand with Ace, I was invited to join the CEO office where only the most talented are picked out to join. Then I was invited to Ace’s office where he offered me a new role as his personal secretary.
I rolled onto my back and stared up at the plain white ceiling above my head before my brows knitted into a frown. No matter how or no matter who looked at this, it was obvious that I only got this position because I slept with the CEO. If I didn’t have sex with him that night none of these opportunities would have been showered on me and I would be stuck working in my old role, which wasn’t a lacking opportunity at all. I was proud of my role and what I was doing as well as the colleagues that I worked with.
