The Office Battlefield: Where Attraction Disguises as Animosity
Lucy Hutton and Joshua Templeman sit directly across from each other, their desks forming the frontline in a silent corporate war. They're executive assistants to co-CEOs of B&G Publishing-a company formed when artistic Gamin Publishing merged with corporate powerhouse Bexley Books. Lucy, petite with vintage-inspired outfits and a strawberry-farm upbringing, embodies the creative Gamin spirit. Joshua, tall and imposing in his rotation of meticulously planned dark shirts, represents the calculating Bexley mentality. Their mutual hatred has become legendary. They've filed multiple HR complaints against each other. Lucy maintains a password-protected document chronicling their conflicts. They play childish games to antagonize each other-the Staring Game, the Mirror Game-each designed to push buttons in increasingly creative ways. Yet beneath this hostility lies something more complex. Lucy obsessively catalogs details about Joshua-his shirt rotation, his mint consumption, how his blue eyes darken when angry. Meanwhile, Joshua secretly tracks Lucy in his planner, noting when she wears dresses, when they argue, and when he wishes he could kiss her. Everything shifts when a new Chief Operating Officer position is announced. Both Lucy and Joshua are prime candidates, and suddenly their games take on higher stakes. The winner will become the other's boss-a prospect filling Lucy with both dread and strange excitement. For Lucy, this promotion represents validation. Having grown up on her parents' strawberry farm, she's passionate about books and publishing. The role would prove she belongs in the corporate world despite her unconventional background. For Joshua, the position means finally stepping out of his father's shadow. As the son of prominent surgeons who abandoned medical school, he needs this promotion to prove his worth in a different field.
