Be looked up and met Felix''s warm gaze. "Felix? What are you doing here?"
Seeing him in a white coat with a hospital badge on his chest only added to her confusion. "Did you start working here? I thought you were managing your family''spany?" Felix smiled, his expression gentle. "I had a long talk with my parents. They''ve agreed to let me take two years to do what I really want.
"Everyone needs to pu
something or someone they truly care about, or they''ll end up with regrets. I''m working in the ER now, so I guess we''re colleagues. I look forward to working with you!
Be suddenly remembered how she had deleted his contact information not long ago. He must''ve noticed. An awkward feeling crept in. "About your contact info

hard feelings, really. Don''t worry about it."
tension, "It''s fine. I''m sure you had your reasons for deleting my number. That''s your choice, and I respect it. No
He was always like this-making people feel warm and at ease
Be''s embarrassment shifted into guilt. "It''s not like that. You probably changed your number aftering back, right? Give me your new one. Now that we''re colleagues, we''ll need to stay in touch."
Felix recited his new number, and after they exch
they exchanged contact information, they went their
separate ways.
Back in her office, Be thought about Dominic''s possessiveness and sensitivity. She quickly changed Felix''s contact name to "Colleague" Dominie wasn''t the type to listen to exnations. If he were even remotely reasonable, she wouldn''t have to tiptoe around like this.n, who acted as Dominic''s "eyes" at the hospital, was always around, so he made sure to keep her distance from Felix whenevern was nearby
She didn''t want Dominic to get the wrong idea and blow things out of proportion. So, whenever she bumped into Felix at work, she kept it to just a simple greeting- Felix wasn''t used to eating takeout, so at lunch, he invited Be to a nearby restaurant. It was the first time he had asked her out tot a meal sinceing back, and she felt it would be rude to decline. -
Once they were seated, Felix politely handed her the menu first. Be, a bit distracted, picked a random dish and handed it back to him. "How''s Yvonne? Has shee back yet?"This text is property of N?/velD/rama.Org.
Felix shook his head. "I came back to focus on my own life. My parents arranged a school for her abroad. Living alone has its perks. It''s easy, but also kind of dull. I''m not used to her not being around,"
Be smiled. "You and Yvonne have one of the closest sibling rtionships I''ve ever seen. I''m a little jealous. If only I had a brother like you."
Felix''s expression remained calm as he replied, "Dominic treats you pretty well, though."
Beughed at herself. "He''d definitely not be my brother."
Felix smoothly added, "No, he''s not You two are dating now."
It wasn''t a secret anymore, and just thinking about it gave Be
headache.
Beling with Dominic had been her dream for so many years, but now that her wish hade true, something still felt off. Was it because Dominic didn''t love her? Being together like this seemed tock any real meaning. Suddenly, Dominic called Be nced at Felix and gave him an apologetic smile. "I need to take this."
Felix gestured for her to go ahead, his quiet demeanor showcasing his impable manners.
The restaurant was fairly quiet, and their table was tucked in one of the more peacefulers. Be didn''t feel the need to step outside into the freezing wind to take the call, so she answered it right there. Dominte''s deep, maic voice came through the line. "Are you having lunch?"
