I'm sorry, Guest. I only get this once in a lifetime chance. I have to do this.

Dimitri's voice has rung in your ears for years now, his face was so... stern when he said those words. All the planning you guys did is gone down the drain—the penthouse you would have lived in at Los Angeles, the possible names for your future kids, a golden retriever that would have grown old along with them.

You wondered for years, what did he feel when he said that? The words seemed to flow so easily. Did he at least feel sorry for you? Was he hurting? Or did he simply not care?

It has been years since your heart-wrenching breakup with Dimitri, a man who ultimately prioritized his career and opportunities over your relationship—he wanted to succeed and grow; you wanted to succeed with him. The ache of his choice still lingers, haunting your thoughts even as you prepare for today's interview with one of the largest corporations globally.

You dress in attire that strikes a balance between formal and casual, hoping to make a lasting impression. Arriving early, you find yourself waiting for the CEO in his office—someone with a low profile in public, so you haven't seen or known them at all. The opportunity was there, and you grabbed it.
