His Secret New Hire by Nyla Lily

I’m expecting to get yelled at, to be fired for my performance.
When Mr. Baldwin pulls me aside, punishment is the last thing on his mind.
When someone from the top stops by our branch, the air is thick.
Mr. Baldwin is rumored to be ruthless, scrapping anyone who he sees as a failure.
Who am I kidding, I am the definition of useless.
Our eyes meet and I know my career is a ticking bomb.
Then he calls me to a room to talk and suddenly, I’m no longer afraid of losing my job.
I’m afraid I’ll lose the man who has a surprisingly gentle touch.
