Chapter 27 His Faith on Her

Elissa was nervous. Few of the employees were giving her dirty looks, some were gossiping and few consoled her. She was walking to Benjamin's office but each step she took felt heavier.

She knocked on the door and when he said to enter, she did. She felt somewhat awkward to meet his eyes and so kept her gaze down to her knotted fingers.

“Have a seat” he said. Elissa pushed the chair and sat opposite him. She had guessed this must be related to her online problem. If he fired her, it was only reasonable. “You must know why you are here, Elissa.”

Elissa nodded. She didn't know what she would do after she lost the job. She couldn't afford to lose it but she was at fault in people's eyes. She thought Benjamin wouldn't believe her like everyone and that made her more upset. She didn't realize she was getting emotional when a drop of tear fell on her shaky hands placed on her lap.
