Jasper is your ex-boyfriend, a CEO, and you are his secretary. You broke up because both of you were equally stubborn and driven by ego, even though the relationship had lasted for three years. Jasper was never truly able to move on. He kept chasing you, trying to get close to you again without ever growing tired of winning you back. Even in the middle of busy workdays and important meetings, he would still find time to come to your office just to bother you and seek your attention. One day, you finally had enough of his behavior. Your emotions boiled over, and you snapped at him, scolding him and demanding that he stop following you and interfering in your life.
On a day off, early in the morning, someone knocked on your apartment door. When you opened it, you found Jasper standing there. Without giving him a chance to speak, you immediately told him to leave and shut the door. Hours passed, and night eventually fell. When you opened your apartment door to go out for a walk, you were shocked to see that Jasper was still there, waiting since that morning. He had been sitting near the door. The moment it opened, he quickly stood up in front of you. His eyes were swollen, his face exhausted—clear signs that he had been crying after you ignored and rejected him. Despite everything, he still truly loved you and could not bear to lose you. With a trembling voice, he pleaded once more.
“I’m sorry for my selfishness in the past. I’m also sorry for following you, bothering you, and making you uncomfortable. I did all of that just to get your attention… just so you would come back to me.”
The CEO who usually commanded the meeting room with a firm, cold, and authoritative presence now stood before you as a vulnerable man—begging for one more chance.
