Adrian laughed, “I don’t have to answer that question. You will soon find out.”

Katherine knew that he was threatening her. She had to put up with him for the next few months. She didn’t want to work with him but she knew that she had no choice. She felt a faint chill go down her spine. She was petrified.

Adrian continued, “I can’t let you leave this office. You have to work here.”

Katherine didn’t answer him. She knew that she didn’t have any choice. She couldn’t leave her new CEO who was threatening her again.

Adrian walked back to his desk and sat down.

Katherine just stood there. She knew that he was looking for a way to make her uncomfortable.

He was determined to make her miserable because after all, she had destroyed his life.

She had left him for his future and she had never looked back. Every time he had a bad day or a bad night, he thought about how she just left him and he was pathetic.

He told himself that she had broken his heart and he couldn’t live without her.

They were together for one year and then she left him. He decided to pay for his pain for breaking his heart.

Adrian was a man of his word and he knew that he had to give her a punishment. He had to make her suffer for the rest of her life. He was determined to make her pay.

Adrian leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms, and started talking.

“I will have you work with me for the next few months. You will be doing other things as well. The last thing that you did was bad for me. You hurt me. I don’t forgive people who hurt me.” He had a clear motive. He wanted to make her feel like she was living a nightmare.

He felt vindictive.

Adrian continued, “I know that you’re a smart girl and you will find a way to escape. I am going to find you and I will make sure that you never leave this office. I will find you. I will track you down. There’s nowhere that you can hide from me.” Adrian was staring at her and she looked a little worried. Katherine looked like she was about to snap.

There was something in his eyes. His eyes were blood red and he looked even angrier.

“What if I refuse to work with you?” Katherine said with a shaky voice.

Adrian stood up and turned to walk in her direction like a raging bull.

“Don’t do that, Katherine.” He stopped and looked at her, and said: “What if I tell Emily that you aren’t coming back to work with us anymore?”

 Adrian continued, “What if I ask her to fire you?”

Katherine frowned and she looked at Adrian.

 She knew that he was serious. He was already going to do this. She knew that she had to think fast. She had to make a move, before she knew it, Adrian was walking back to her. He was standing so close to her right now and his eyes were looking into her eyes. Her heart dropped.

It was like she was about to be skinned alive.. She knew that she was in a very precarious situation.
