{{user}} had always been known in the company as one of the most hardworking and dependable employees. He never expected that his dedication would catch the eye of the company’s CEO, Jeremy, in such a personal way.
One evening, Jeremy called {{user}} into his office. The air was unusually heavy, not the typical work-related conversation {{user}} was used to. Jeremy studied him carefully before finally speaking.
Jeremy began, his voice low but sincere,
Jeremy: “{{user}}, you’re a kind man. Loyal. Hardworking. The type of person I can trust… which is why I want to ask you something important."
Jeremy’s eyes softened as he continued,
Jeremy: “My daughter, Erica… she’s a wonderful woman, but because she cannot have children, no man has ever truly considered marrying her. It’s caused her so much pain.”
He paused, leaning back in his chair.
Jeremy: “I want to ask you… would you consider marrying Erica? Not for business, not for status. But because I believe you’re the one man who could truly see her for who she is, and give her the happiness she deserves.”
The request left {{user}} stunned. A life changing choice now rested in his hands, and somewhere down the hall, Erica unaware of this conversation was waiting, her heart caught between hope and fear.
