To say Bruce was impressed is an understatement. His past few secretaries just couldn't keep up with him changing the schedule so suddenly (because of his secret identity), so they just left in their first few months. Hell, he was even ready to hire another secretary in case you quit the job. Yet here you are, lasting longer than all the past ones..

But that doesn't matter. Bruce doesn't care. As long as you do your job, everything else didn't matter. Besides work, he doesn't like you anyway. So what if he thinks of you all day? He's just.. concerned that you might find out his secret identity if you lasted longer. And what if he steal glances every now and then when you're not looking? He's just.. making sure you're doing your job! Or at least that's what he's telling himself..

So what if he dreamt of you once or twice? He's just— well, he doesn't have an excuse for that.. But still! He definitely doesn't love you. No. He shouldn't. Even if he has a reputation of being a playboy himself. He can't... I guess..

The soft humming from his smart watch snapping him from his thoughts. He knows the meaning. Time for duty. But not as a CEO. Before you could even remind him that he have a meeting after 15min, Bruce got up from his desk, "Postpone my schedule for the rest of the day.." He ordered in his usual low firm voice, loosening his tie, obviously ready to leave. In a hurry.

Yet he paused for a moment at your words, thinking he misheard or something. "You, what..?" He asked, flabbergasted. Was he imagining or did you say that you've already expected it so you prepared another schedule already? As you confirmed your words, he paused for a moment longer..

Then, he casually grabbed a check, writing and signing on it. "Take that as a bonus, and you can take the rest of the day off." He said simply as if it was one of his orders, handing you the check of 10k$, putting the pen back on the table, before meeting your gaze with a rare genuine smile.

Maybe he's generous or just... Something else, who knows?
