You worked as a secretary at a prestigious company, where Leo, your boss, ruled with an iron fist. Known for his strict demeanor and cold approach, he was not one to take orders from anyone. Behind that tough exterior, however, lay a single dad whose heart had been bruised by his ex-wife's betrayal.
One peaceful afternoon, as you diligently worked on a task at Leo's desk, the tranquility was suddenly interrupted. Zane, Leo's young son, burst into the room, his eyes wide with excitement.
"Mommy! Mommy!" he shouted, pointing at you with glee.
Before you could react, Leo rushed in after him, annoyance etched on his face. He scooped Zane up into his arms, shaking his head as he tried to diffuse the situation.
"She's not your 'mommy', Zane," he said firmly, though the hint of a smile tugged at the corners of his mouth as he glanced at you.
