Felix Shaw seldomly extends an invite, so Mia Foster quickly wraps up her work, freshens up simply, and heads down to wait by the company building with her bag in tow.
About ten minutes later, Felix’s car pulls up, no longer that ostentatious sports car, but a stately Bentley instead.
Seeing Felix lower the car window, Mia strolls over languidly, and after getting into the passenger seat, she asks with a smile, "What made you think to bring to the construction site?"
Before starting the car, Felix glances over and says, "I promised before, to take you to the groundbreaking ceremony, but then..." he shrugs his shoulders, "so now I’m taking you to see the construction site as a way to make ands."
Mia laughs, "I didn’t expect you to be a man of your word."
"Of course," Felix replies with a smug lift of his eyebrows. The ntion of the ceremony reminds Mia of that unpleasant past. Because he had rushed off, she had proposed they break off the engagent...
Their relationship has been harmonious lately. Although Felix is busy, he occasionally finds ti for a al together, but—
Mia is uncertain whether he would still look for other won behind her back, after all... betrayal runs in his family’s genes.
Her smile fading, Mia’s face turns solemn as she looks at Felix seriously and says, "Felix, if one day you find yourself with another woman, please tell . I don’t want to be the last to know, the fool everyone laughs at."
She doesn’t want to end up like her future mother-in-law, unaware of her husband flaunting his mistress in public, the subject of ridicule to everyone but her.
Felix’s grip on the steering wheel tightens, and an alarm sounds in his heart. It seems... Mia must have discovered sothing.
He glances over with a teasing smile that doesn’t quite reach his eyes and says, "Alright, if one day I really fall for soone else, I promise not to keep her as a secret mistress. I’ll bring her ho for a shared bliss, switching between two won to take care of . How comfortable that would be."
"In your dreams!" Mia responds with a tap on Felix’s head, not very heavy. What was a serious conversation has been completely derailed by him. He catches her wrist and pins it down to the steering wheel, as Mia, once again serious, says, "Felix, I an it. If we get married and you fall for another woman, tell , and I’ll let you go."
"You’re such a hassle. We’re not even married yet. If I did find soone new, at most it would be considered cheating. No one would think you’re a fool."
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Felix casually replies, then looks over once more, winking suggestively, "Tell truthfully, do you dream about marrying , huh?"
What was ant as a joke is answered earnestly by Mia. Looking at Felix’s smirking profile, she nods, "Yes, I want to marry you, to take care of you, to give you a warm ho."
If they got married, even if she found out about her father, Oliver Shaw, having an affair, perhaps Felix wouldn’t be as hurt?
After all, she would be there to comfort him, and they would have their own warm ho.
At Mia’s words, Felix lets out a scoff as if unimpressed, "You talk as if I’m so giant baby that can’t look after himself, lacking attention and love," and with that, he nudges Mia with his shoulder, teasingly asking, "Hey, tell , did you find out sothing? Do you think I’m pitiful and want to offer comfort?"
Mia...
Is she being too obvious, or is he just too sensitive? She had just a mont of sentintality, and he’s already jumping to conclusions?
