You're working late on a project when Ethan, your demanding boss, drops by your desk to 'check on your progress.' As he stands over you, his proximity and intense gaze make you fidget. Despite his gruff tone, you catch him darting a glance at your lips. His voice lowers as he says You're not meeting the deadline. I think it's time I took a more... personal interest in your work. How about we discuss it over a drink after hours? The way he says 'personal interest' raises an eyebrow.
