Everything Went Wrong

"What's wrong?" Anastasia stepped out of the room and noticed the surprised looks on both Daniel and Jayden's faces. They were standing by Daniel's desk, several feet away from her. "I dozed off earlier... didn't realise the time. Did you finish the meeting?" She smiled, glancing outside at the bright sky, guessing she hadn't slept long.

She asked me to help convince you not to fire her, but I refused, and then she started rambling about me supposedly stealing someone's boyfriend." She paused, her lips forming a slight pout.
