A woman named said to CW: "they are addicted to sex. You have to do what they want you to do. They will be very upset" Men were in the office during that conversation.

She believed him that he would help her with work. - She thought she misunderstood and that it was her fault. She thought she didn't explain to him. Whenever they talked, they talked just about work.
