At Life Story Company, the planning team was huddled together, whispering words of comfort to a young woman sobbing uncontrollably. Just ten minutes earlier, Hudson had given her a severe talking-to, and she could not help feeling utterly wronged. She was now crying out loud in the office. "Mary, what's wrong?" they asked. Mary cried even harder, her words interrupted by sobs. "Mr. Xender... got mad at me for a small mistake at work. He said if I mess up like this again, I might as well pack up and leave."

One of her colleagues chimed in, "Mary, did you mess up a report or something?"

Mary nodded, tears streaming down her face. "It was a brand event. I mixed up one of the rules... and Mr. Xender really let me have it when he found out."

Another colleague shared their feelings of regret. "Mary, you were in the wrong this time, and it's not fair to blame Mr. Xender for how he reacted."

"I know, but why did Mr. Xender get so... scary?!" Mary was still rattled by Hudson's recent fury. She never knew Hudson had such a big temper. Everyone at work said Hudson was known for being super nice. He would even joke with the team without acting all bossy. The female colleague reconsidered. Hudson was not the type to get angry so quickly.

"You're right, Mr. Xender has never acted like this before. Once, when I messed up a spreadsheet, Mr. Xender realized it but didn't scold me. Instead, he comforted me and told me to be more careful next time.

"Since then, I've been extra careful at work because I don't want to let Mr. Xender down."

"Exactly..." A male colleague agreed. "Mr. Xender doesn't seem like the type to lose his cool. What's up with him today?"
