The Million Dollar Marriage Deal

Five o'clock is the end of the shift.

Ella was packing up her paperwork and was about to go home when a head popped into her room and spoke. "Ella, the boss wants to see you."

"Yes." Ella raised her head and replied. Then she mumbled to herself. 'Time is up, what does the boss want to see me for?'

Her heart was filled with uneasiness. But she still got up from her chair, grabbed her bag, and went to her boss's room, Mr. John.

Ella's boss is a fat man. It is rumored that he is lustful, flirting with young girls even though he is married. Ella was among the young girls. She was repeatedly beaten by Mr. John's harassment, but the cases of harassment were mild. Working at a company whose boss is a pervert, would rather quit. But Ella desperately needs a steady job. If she quits her job, who will take care of her often sick father? Therefore, Ella gritted her teeth and endured, turning a blind eye to everything.

The clattering of clogs in the hallway. Ella thought as she walked. 'After all, what does the boss want to see me about?' She paused and reassured herself. 'It's okay. Don't think too much. It's probably about the Blue Heaven project I'm in charge of.'

Arriving at the door of Mr. John, Ella took a deep breath and then raised her hand and knocked three times on the door.

"Come in." Voices came from within the room.

Ella opened the door. "Boss, is something wrong?"

Mr. John stepped back took Ella by the hand went inside the room and closed the door.

Ella looked at the closed door, a little scared but still calm. "What's the matter, sir?"

"Don't call me boss when it's over. Let's sit down and talk for a while." Mr. John grins.

"If it's not important, I'll go home." Ella had just turned her back when an arm grabbed her.

"Don't rush. It's still early." Mr. John deliberately said roundabouts, buying time.

He stroked the back of Ella's hand. Feeling a little ticklish, she withdrew her hand.

"Boss, be proud."

Mr. John thought Ella was a difficult girl to convince, but he liked her even more. He is not in a hurry but slowly flirts with his prey.

"Project Green Paradise, how are you preparing? Do you need my help?" Mr. John thinks he needs to be a little nicer before his prey falls into the trap.

"No need. I'm done. I'll email you shortly after I get home." Ella said sternly.

"So I invite you to dine with me tonight, okay?" Mr. John suggested.

"Sorry, I'm busy." Ella makes excuses.

"You always say you're busy. Aren't you going to have dinner?"

"I'll eat at home with my father." Ella lost her patience. She looked at her watch, desperately wanting to get out of there.

"Just eat with me once. If you make me happy, I'll give you a raise."

Ell begins to realize the evil intentions of Mr. John, but she refuses. "I will work hard and get the salary I deserve. I don't need a raise just to make people happy."
