Every night before she slept, her thoughts would drift off to Wesley-to everything he said and did. Sometimes she would imagine how their future would be. Tonight was no exception.
The next morning, Blair handed the translated documents to the manager of the German cooperative partner in the conference room. They were satisfied and spoke highly of her capability. She heaved a sigh of relief. Of course, she thanked Wesley’s help in her mind.
After the meeting, Blair was called into Filberta’s office. Her superior requested her team to perform a show in the company’s annual gala next month. Filberta even gave a specific suggestion, asking them to present a dance on the stage.
Blair was surprised. She asked in confusion, “Dance? But why?”

“Well, as you already know, most of the staff members in our company are men. It’ll help to enliven the atmosphere of the party.
Just learn ssteps of modern dance and practice it with your team members. Besides, you aren’t married yet, right? It’s a good chance that will help you find a boyfriend. Do remember to put on the shortest skirt, put on heavy makeup and move your body as sexily as you can.”
Blair seethed in anger. She didn’t know how to dance. It was late winter now, and Filberta was asking her to wear a miniskirt. Did this vicious woman want to freeze her to death? But Blair understood the actual intent of her words. She knew that Filberta wanted to humiliate her and was going to use this opportunity to do so.
“Filberta, I’m afraid I have to disappoint you. Since childhood I’ve not been good at dancing. And sadly I have no other talents. It will bring shto our department if I perform on the stage. So I think it is better if you don’t countin.”
“Don’t count you in? No way! You and your team must perform and present a dance in the show!” Filberta was persistent.
She had a stronger desire now to push Blair onto the stage as she had confessed that she had no other talents. It was clear to everyone that
Blair was like a goddess in the eyes of many of the male staff members.
It would be a good opportunity to show Blair’s incapability and ineptness to them. They would surely be disappointed.
Blair rolled her eyes.
“Why do we have to perform? Don’t I have the right to make a choice? Is it also in the company rules that one can be compelled to dance even if one isn’t willing to?”
Sensing Blair’s anger, Filberta said in a righteous voice, “The annual gala is the biggest event of the company in a year. Why can’t you make a little contribution to support the company? But now I can clearly see that your work attitudes and ethics are not good enough.”

“You mean to say that my work attitude is not good just because I refuse to perform on the stage?” she countered.
“Sorry to say but yes!” Filberta replied, trying to sound firm.
Blair couldn’t keep her anger in control anymore.
“Are you nuts
Although there wasn’t a third person in her office, Filberta still felt humiliated, being retorted by a subordinate. She instantly shouted back, “How dare you! Why don’t you quit the job if you can’t follow orders? Who do you think you are? Huh? Everyone said yes except you.
Don’t you think it’s your problem? Just put on a good performance. No more nonsense!”
She ended her sentence like a thunderous roar. Blair didn’t want to make a scene. Suppressing her anger, she explained patiently
“Filberta, I don’t mean to reject your order on purpose. I just don’t want to embarrass the translation department. There’re many better choices.”
