The room grew hotter, and he strained to count aloud.


    Thirsty and parched, he struggled to maintain a stable position during push-ups, making him very weak.


    He needed every ounce of focus to avoid an awkward fall, intensifying the already torturous physical ordeal.


    To add to the hardship, his forehead bled.


    The salty sweat seeped into the wound, causing sharp, stinging pain and leaving him Light-headed.


    He vowed to seek revenge someday and pressed on.


    “Four hundred…”


    Afterpleting the required number of push-ups, Mekhi rose steadily and sped his hands behind his back.


    Setting down the teacup, Nathan watched Mekhi catching his breath.


    With a teasing tone, he remarked, “Gasping and sweating so much after just a couple of hundred push-ups? It seems your physical strength has taken a hittely.

    Trying to steady his breath, Mekhi felt difort as his sweat-soaked shirt clung to his body.

    Feeling a gust of hot wind, he looked up subconsciously and noticed that the heating was on.


    He clenched his hands again in fury, and sweat continued to trickle down his cheeks and chin.


    Squinting, Nathan went on, “How do you expect to continue to be the deputy director in such a state?”


    Taken aback, Mekhi quickly responded, “I apologize, sir.


    I haven’t been keeping up with my workouts.


    I’ll make sure to train harder.


    ”


    Smirking, Nathan replied, “I’m not concerned about what you doter.


    My role today is to support you through this challenging training session.

    Mekhi stood somewhat rigid and hisplexion was a shade paler.


    Havingpleted over 500 push-ups, every inch of his body throbbed with pain.


    More than four hours remained before the end of work.


    What further thing would Nathan tell him to do?


    Noticing Mekhi’s anxious demeanor, Nathan smirked andmanded in an cold tone, “Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a squat position for an hour.Exclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.
