Chapter 72 Preserving The Illusion

• It was true that I didn't hate the work, and I actually liked it more than I imagined that I would. Sure enough, some of the tasks were very manual and administrative, but there were also a lot of learning opportunities, and the exposure that Raphael promised was definitely there. I got to understand more about the business and also got to interact and take part in many management meetings that were very eye-opening. That was the main part of why I found it very hard to believe that Rosabella’s words were true, but the illogical part of my mind combined with my fears tempted me to believe in her words.
• "If you like it, you should just say so. This position is open especially for you, so all you have to do is tell me that you’ve decided to officially take this job," Raphael said as he took a step towards me.
• He stood right in front of me before his hands reached out to capture my chin. Slowly, he tilted my face upwards so that I was forced to meet his gaze. As always, I felt immediately sucked into the captivating beauty of his eyes, but before I allowed myself to lose myself in those seductive depths, I quickly turned my face away.
