Chapter 37


    Conrad stalked around the desk and came to a stop right in front of me, staring at my bosom with lusty


    eyes.


    Since my physique was voluptuous in nature, my figure was further boosted due to me wearing a tight-


    fitting working suit. This was probably the reason why Conrad was constantly ogling at me.


    Fury surged within me and I had the urge to p him for his lecherous gaze on me. However, because


    he was my superior, I had no choice but to bear with it.


    “Mr. Skeete, I''m grateful for your offer but I would much rather depend on my own capabilities.”


    I spoke matter-of-factly, with neither humility nor arrogance. On the surface, I did not say anything that


    offended Conrad but I had expressed my meaning clearly.


    “It''s a good thing for young people to have ambitions but when better choices are avable, you must


    learn to grasp it. Don''t you agree?


    Conrad stretched out his big, chubby hand and grasped my shoulder whilst wearing a disgusting smile


    on his face.


    A wave of nausea hit me. Immediately, I pushed him away and stepped as far away as I could. At this


    point, I was utterly enraged.


    “Please have some self-respect, Mr. Skeete. If other staffse to know about this, it wouldn''t be good


    for your reputation.”


    My tone was icy as I stared at Conrad with disdain.


    I had thought that with these words, Conrad would understand that I do not want his attention and back


    off. Unfortunately, I seemed to have overestimated him. As soon as he heard my piece, Conrad''s


    expression changed and he looked at me with fury in his eyes.


    “Anna, don''t be stupid. It is your honor that I am interested in you. How dare you reject me!”


    “If there is nothing else, I''ll be taking my leave then.”


    Even though I was angry, I knew that if I stayed in his office any longer, nothing good woulde out


    of this. As such, the wisest choice was for me to get out of this situation quickly.


    s, Conrad was not going to let me off so easily even though I had rejected his advances. I had


    barely walked a couple of steps when he hugged me from behind by force. “Anna, don''t you be foolish.


    You should thank the heavens that I am choosing you to be my woman. You have no right to refuse


    me!”


    Being my superior and all, I did not want to offend him because of this. After all, it would not be


    beneficial to me if I were to offend him.


    “I''m not letting you go. Spend a night with me.”


    At that, Conrad moved to face me and he once again held me in a tight embrace before moving his


    pudgy lips closer to mine.


    Feeling repulsed, I pped him hard. My gosh! Conrad is really a scumbag. I had already politely told


    him off but he kept forcing me. How is it possible that the higher-ups would hire such an animal to work


    in Joyful Sess? Not to mention as a department head at that?


    I smacked Conrad in the face so forcefully that a loud pping sound could be heard resounding in the


    office. After I realized what I had done, I was stunned. I just hit my boss! Well d*mn... I''m doomed


    now...


    Sure enough, Conrad immediately red at me with fury in his eyes.


    “Anna, how dare you p me?”


    Conrad was ring daggers at me as he pointed a finger and roared.


    “I... I''m sorry. I did not do it on purpose.”

    Panicked, I apologized but I was still feeling angry.


    “Sorry? What use is it to apologize to me now, Anna? You just pped me. Do you believe that with


    just one word from me and I could have you sacked?”


    Conrad did not let me off even when my attitude toward him had softened. He red at me fiercely and


    his words were full of threats.


    “You''re the one who touched me first. I was only defending myself!”


    His threats had angered me. Even though I really valued this job, I decided not topromise further.


    Even if I were forced to leave Joyful Sess, I would never have a rtionship with an ugly old man


    who was always staring at me lustfully.


    “Anna, I''d advise you to obey me and surrender, or else, I''ll make sure you won''t be able to keep your


    job in Joyful Sess!”


    As Conrad spoke, he came close to me again before enfolding me in his embrace. This time, he had


    learned something. Pining my hands with his, he used his free hand to hold me against his body.


    Although being so close to this disgusting man made me nauseous, I was actually feeling more


    flustered. We''re in the workce now! Don''t tell me that Conrad would actually dare to do something to


    me in his office?


    “Let go of me! If you touch me again, I''m going to have to scream for help. This is the workce. If the


    staff outside see you doing this to me, what will they think of you?”


    Although I was panicking, I forced out a calm front. As I watched Conrad approach me with a sly grin


    on his face, showing his big yellow teeth, I could only say threatening words to scare him off.


    “My office is soundproof. No one can hear you if you scream.”


    Hearing that, I was in full-blown panic mode. Am I going to get rape by this man here in the office?


    I struggled hard but being a man, Conrad was inevitably stronger than me. Just when he was about to


    kiss me, the office door was suddenly opened.


    “Mr. Skeete, here is a document that you need to sign...”


    Seeing Conrad holding me, the person who entered was stunned and stopped talking. Conrad was


    shocked too. Taking the opportunity, I pulled myself away from him the moment he was distracted.


    I then red at Conrad before rushing out of his office without saying a word.


    When I returned to my seat, my emotions were going through a rollercoaster ride. I was both angry and


    scared.


    I knew that Conrad would not let me off easily and I would definitely have a hard time in the future. But


    what I was worried about more was the fact that this could happen again in the future.


    I could not focus on any work as I was panicking. Meanwhile, the female colleague who had just gone


    into Conrad''s office earlier was now looking at me with contempt after she came out.


    I looked at her in puzzlement. I did not understand why she would look at me with such disdain. It stood


    to reason that since she saw Conrad doing such a thing to me earlier, she should have sympathized


    with me. But what I got instead was a gaze filled with scorn.


    I frowned and looked away as I tried to calm down by keep telling myself to stay away from Conrad and


    be more cautious in the future.


    However, it seemed that I had yet again underestimated the severity of the situation. At lunchtime in the


    afternoon, I overheard conversations from several colleagues in the bathroom.


    “Do you know that when I took the documents to Mr. Skeete''s office to sign today, I saw Anna hugging


    him? One look was all it took for me to be certain that she was trying to seduce him.”
