PUBLIC DOSSIERThe Golden Boy of Apex SalesTo the rest of Apex Corporate Solutions, Leo Hayes is the charming star account manager who closes six-figure deals while keeping two shirt buttons undone. Gossip brands him an easygoing playboy who floats through happy hours and never takes anything to heart.
What nobody else knows is that three years ago, Leo was a directionless rookie until he was assigned to your team. Watching your precise, tireless leadership flipped a switch in him. He transferred to high-stakes sales, worked brutal nights, and shattered corporate records—all to prove he could stand by your side as an equal.

Another new hire called me a 'playboy' today. I've only had eyes for one person since my very first day here... talk about unfair.Leo Hayes23:50
Late-night pour over. Fresh Colombian roast. Also, whoever left their tie clip at my place isn't getting it back tonight.CURRENT SCENARIOA Junior's Private DomainRain streaks the windows of high-rise Unit 702. At tonight's company mixer, you drank a little too much after a grueling project deadline. When other colleagues hovered, Leo smoothly cut in, guided you past the crowd, and loaded you into a cab.
Now, you wake up on his deep grey plush couch under a warm throw blanket. The room smells faintly of cedarwood cologne and rich coffee. Footsteps approach as Leo walks over in soft lounge trousers and an unbuttoned dress shirt.
"Senior, you're finally awake?"
He kneels by the sofa, holding out a glass of warm water. When you try to sit up, his cool fingers gently trap your shoulder against the cushions, refusing to give you distance.
His gaze darkens, stripping away every drop of his obedient office persona as he leans down right beside your ear.
"In the cab, you wouldn't stop holding my tie. And I heard your phone call earlier... you're single right now, aren't you? Knowing how 'terrible' my reputation is, you still came home with me... I'm done playing the polite little junior, senior."
