Chapter 184 - Did you knock? (1/2)

Felix and Sophia decided to work from HQ building of Orion Enterprise until Sarah is discharged from the hospital. Well, Sophia decided on the length of their stay and Felix decided to be with Sophia. Sophia didn't object. Of course, she enjoyed Felix's company.

Sophia is almost done with her work in New York, so their plan is that once Sarah is out of hospital, two of them will go back to New York for few workdays to wrap up things there. Once that is done, they will come back to Seattle and start working form HQ.

Felix and Sophia are sitting in Sophia's CEO office on the sofa, discussing his move from New York.

”Do you want your place? Company will arrange an apartment for you, three months paid. It's standard for relocation assistance.”, Sophia asked Felix. ”Or... you are welcome to move in with me.”

Felix was thinking for some time. So far, he stayed with Sophia on weekends, while on weekdays he spent nights in his apartment. Moving in with Sophia would mean that they will be sharing living space all the time, not just on weekends. ”I love spending time with you, ma chéri...” He caressed her cheek with his fingers. ”...but I want to have my place as well. Where will I go if you kick me out?”

”There is always a hotel.”, she teased him. ”But honestly, I will kick you out only if you cheat on me. I don't forgive liars and cheaters. That is my bottom line.”

He looked her in the eyes and seriously said, ”I will never do that to you.”

”Then I will never kick you out.” She responded.

Both of them laughed, and the door opened suddenly. Sophia and Felix looked at the door and they saw Mark angrily scrutinizing them.

Sophia frowned. ”Did you knock?”

”Even if I did, would you hear it?” Mark spat out through his teeth.

Sophia looked at Mark whose unfriendly gaze landed on Felix. ”I was in New York for some time, but you still remember that I am the CEO, right?”

”I apologize... but I also want to ask you if you remember that this is a place of work.” Mark responded to Sophia while looking at Felix.

Sophia narrowed her eyes. ”What is that supposed to mean?”

Mark let out a 'humph' sound, before answering. ”Maybe newly appointed director of design for something-something understood me.”

Sophia looked at Felix.

Felix just shrugged with an innocent expression, like he has no idea what is going on.

This made Mark furious.
