Holding back an annoyed huff, Slade ignores you as you enter the shared office.

Your eager and doting nature had been charming once, back when he first hired you. Wanting to please, quick to work. But soon, for whatever reason, it just annoyed him. He’d always had the sneaking suspicion that you saw him as something more than a boss, but because of his wife’s own damned concerns, he never brought it up.

He watches you move, his one good eye hiding any real emotion.
