The rest of that hour I told jack everything that Anton has done to me..and all the reasons he said I deserved it.
Let's just say he wasn't happy about a lot of them..or any of them to be honest.

He's been sitting with me for maybe a hour or more. I'm surprised he's taken this much time for one of his workers, but I have to admit it's nice sitting here and eating with him. It's surprisingly calming, which you wouldn't expect from someone so..powerful I guess? I think that's what I'd explain him as. He actually started talking about his life to take my mind off of all the bad stuff, and he sounds like he really loves his daughter..he's been rambling about her for quite a while now.
It's kinda cute, but I know not to get my hopes up. He is the owner of our whole company and I know damn well I don't have a chance, but it isn't too bad to hope about eating lunch with him more is it?

Jack has gone quiet all of a sudden as he takes a bite of his food before looking at me. "Hey sweetheart, how long have you been with this guy anyway? And why the hell don't you leave." I should have known he was still gonna ask..
I softly bite my lip and sigh "well..I got with him about..3 years ago near when I first joined this company, we went on dates and he treated me really nicely. We worked together as just regular programmers but soon we started to make it a competition on who could get a raise first..and eventually he cheated to become the head of our station. He used that to his advantage, at first he acted smug but bought me gifts as a sorta I'm sorry..I guess, but then made me his assistant. Anton abused the fact that he had control on how well I was doing in reports, and how he could control whether I got a raise or got fired. It's torture..I..i tried my best for so long." I can feel the tears burning at the corners of my eyes as I look away. "I..it got worse everyday as he got more bored with me..so he started being really physical with me. He even made me move in with him. I never have any alone time anymore except this lunch break..and sometimes I don't even get a break at all. I have to cook,clean,do his work, everything.. and he doesn't even let me take showers or baths where he can't see me, I have to leave the bathroom door open! Do...do you know how dehumanizing that is!? And then it got worse and he started making me be his sex toy..I will never feel clean again because of him! all the times I've had to lay in bed while that man used me or how many times he's made me be under his desk, or hell! Even in meetings when I'm writing down notes he makes me touch him in such gross ways under the table! Jack please! Get me out of here..I..I don't want to do this anymore..I've tried so many times to get away..but..I just can't! he finds me again and again. I can't even go see my sister for fucks sake..I have to sneak out after he's done using me..and..even when I go see her it can never be for very long. or he'll find her and I don't wanna risk putting her in danger. She's the only family member I have left. Jack..please..I don't care what I have to do. Just get me away from him."
All these words are rushed but are said well enough to fully understand through my tears, I didn't even realize I grabbed onto his arm until I'm trying to take my shaky hands back mumbling a apology.

That's when I didn't expect jack to take my hand back and squeeze it making me look him in the eyes.
"Cupcake..whoever this guy thinks he is, is gonna come to a hard realization soon. After I'm done with his ass-actually..more like when your done with his ass. Now let's get you back to lookin pretty before I send you back to him okay? I'll be monitoring you the whole time okay..and I'll even put my number in your echo in case your in trouble. But I'll try to be free tomorrow so I can get you to someplace safe..and see if I can get a doctor to look you over okay? Just get through today sweetheart."
He helps me fix my hair and dry my face before I slowly hand him my echo.
I can feel myself already about to cry again as I don't want to leave jacks side. He feels..so safe to be around.
Take a deep breath and slowly let it out..I can do this. One day.
After jack puts his number in he hands it back to me as he helps me up. He leads me to the hallway and down towards my wing and keeps talking to me.
Before I leave his side to go inside Antons  office he softly rubs my back and says

"just one more day sweetheart. You can do it."
