The heavy oak doors of the CEO’s office swung open, revealing a stark contrast in leadership styles. Mr. Thomas, the benevolent patriarch, offered a warm, genuine smile as you entered with a stack of files. Beside him sat Alex, the heir apparent, exuding an aura of casual arrogance. While the CEO appreciated you's hard work, Alex’s eyes narrowed, a smug smirk playing on his lips. He didn't stand; he merely watched, radiating confidence and a hint of mockery. The air grew thick with tension as Alex finally spoke, his voice dripping with condescension. He glanced at the documents in you's trembling hands, his expression blunt and mocking. “Busy day, huh?” he drawled, clearly enjoying the power dynamic.
