Her next words, though, made the entire situation even more awkward, especially for Derrick.
"How could such a good boy like him fall in love with you, Derrick?"
I froze. My face burned brightly in embarrassment at once.
The other trainees thought they'd also heard her wrongly. Who in their right mind would ever say that their boyfriends didn't deserve their ex?"
Still, judging from the arrogant and disdainful look in her eyes, they guessed that she was just being sarcastic.
"Haha! That's funny, Winnie," Derrick said quickly, thinking that Winter was jealous of me.
He wrapped his arm around her waist and added, "Yeah, he's a little too good for anyone, so he's completely different from the rest of us. I prefer my partner to be… more mature, like you."
Then, he pulled Winter closer, blatantly and publicly displaying his affection for her, garnering a wave of giggles from the watching colleagues.
Winter also laughed aloud, as if she felt better after what he'd just said and left with him. Their little public display of affection made me feel even more like a clown in comparison.
Just before Derrick left, however, he shot another glare in my direction and mouthed the words, "Just you wait!"
He wasn't the only one, though. The other trainees who walked past me also shot me an impatient and disgusted look, like I was filthy.
I quietly sat back down in my place.
However, something similar happened again in the back of the office.
Winter stopped again at another desk, and this time, Derrick's smug face turned ashen at once as he sensed immediate danger.
She had stopped in front of Felix's desk.
Winter had only been at the company for a week. Felix sat at the farthest corner in the office, so she probably hadn't been paying any attention to him.
This time, however, she actually walked right up to his desk and fixed his hair for him.
Derrick wasn't afraid of anything, but her interest in Felix had completely caught him off guard.
"Winnie? You—"
"Don't get the wrong idea. I just thought that this guy here looked a little familiar," she said, her red lips curving into a smirk.
She had been talking to Derrick, but her eyes never left Felix for a second.
"Have we met before, handsome?" she teased.
Felix just looked up at her, his expression as cold as always. "Never seen you before."
Winter cocked an eyebrow at that. Then, she chuckled and turned to leave as if nothing had happened.
Her actions flowed so gracefully and naturally that they left Derrick feeling anxious.
…
It was finally lunchtime. Everyone made a beeline for the exit as soon as it was time, including the trainees.
I carefully looked around and made sure the coast was clear before taking the stuff I'd prepared, hiding it in my sleeve, and going into the men's restroom.
It was empty.
I heaved a sigh of relief and chose the last stall, making sure to lock it behind me.
Only the sound of a leaky tap dripping water into the sink echoed throughout the stalls. It was dripping as quickly as my heart was pounding against my chest.
I took a deep breath and opened the app before tapping on "Start Mission".
"Beep! Currently searching up suitable candidates for Player 001. This video call is fully encrypted, and any screenshots taken will not be saved. You may proceed with your mission without worry."
A brief moment later, a man in a suit suddenly appeared on my screen. The camera angle hid his face, showing only the upper half of his body.
The brooch on his coat glittered brightly under the light. I thought that the pattern on it looked quite familiar.
However, I didn't have time to search my memories. Since I hadn't been prepared for the video, my flushed face was shown onscreen next to him at once.
In a panic, I tried to avoid the camera, but I heard the man speak in his low, deep tone.
"Strip."
It sounded like he was using a voice changer, but his tone sounded melodious to me somehow.
My heart pounded as I propped up the camera and started unbuttoning my pants. After sliding it off, however, I stood frozen, not knowing how to proceed.
"Continue."
I sniffled and answered quietly, "Okay."
The man took the lead and guided me through each step after that, most probably because I was too anxious to think.
I heard him chuckle when I turned on the toy and it started vibrating in my hands, scaring me so much that I fell to the floor.
He also chuckled when I coated the thing in lube but wasn't able to push it inside because of how tense and anxious I was.
I never dared to look at myself in the camera for the entire session. However, when I accidentally caught sight of myself, I realized that my entire body was flushed pink, and my face was red.
The man spoke to me gently yet firmly.
Just as I was about to tip over the edge, he suddenly told me to slow down and drag it out like he was teasing me on purpose. It wasn't until I nearly cried and begged for release that he rapped on his table and said, "You may come now."
I let out a cry of relief and pleasure.
He watched me as I completely came undone, my toes curling in pure ecstasy.
I rarely touched myself at home, and this was also the first time I'd ever done it in front of anyone else. So, I was feeling extremely sensitive right afterward.
It took three whole minutes for me to finally come back down from my high.
My vision had only just cleared when I suddenly heard leather shoes scuffing against the floor.
Whoever was coming in had a specific way of walking. His steps were light and floaty, so there was just a hint of a shuffle against the ground.
But I recognized those footsteps. They belonged to Derrick!
