Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan) novel Chapter 2460

Tina hadn't been with us for long. The previous assistant, along with her boyfriend, had moved abroad, paving the way for Tina to step into her role at the studio.

At first, Tina was a bit stiff and cautious around me, treating me with a mix of respect and fear. But as we got more familiar with each other, she loosened up and jokes started flying left and right!

Sophia, too, was a fan of this laid-back work vibe.

After Tina took her leave, Sophia tidied up some drafts, glanced at the clock noting she was nine minutes behind schedule, and stood up to find Jason.

The door was slightly ajar. Without knocking, Sophia pushed it open just a crack and peeked inside.

Jason was on a call, but upon seeing her, his eyes warmed, signaling her to come in with a wave.

Sophia walked in, closed the door behind her, settled on the couch, and picked up a magazine, waiting patiently for him to finish.

Jason, wrapping up his call, said, “Alright, get started on your end. I've got something here, so I'll join you in a few days.”

After issuing a few more instructions, he hung up.

Putting his phone aside, he turned his attention towards Sophia.

Sophia stood up, a playful smile dancing on her lips. "All done? Can we go grab some lunch now?”

“Hmm,” he hummed in response, removing his glasses and cupping her face to draw her into a tender kiss.

Sophia, on her tiptoes, clutched at his shirt.

The office was enveloped in a quiet warmth, bathed in sunlight that made the moment feel lazy and tender.

The kiss, long and deep, left Sophia breathless. She leaned into him, gasping for air, before managing to ask, “You’re going on a trip?”

“I need to head to the States for a bit. In a few days,” Jason replied, holding her close and gently nuzzling her hair.

He was supposed to leave immediately, but finding themselves newly united, he found it hard to part from her so soon.

Jason, serious yet tender, assured, “I’ve got some. In my bag.”

Her laughter bloomed brighter, promising to rush home and wait for him, insisting he not start without her.

Watching her, Jason felt a promise swell in his heart. “Whatever you want to eat, I’ll make it for you.”

So, before heading to his place, they made a detour to the supermarket for supplies.

They wandered from the fresh produce to the snack aisle, and as they passed the personal care section, a salesgirl approached them with a new ultra-thin product, pitching its comfort and ease to Sophia.

“What’s this?” Sophia reached out curiously.

Jason, picking up tissues, turned to see Sophia examining the box, her face flushing with realization. In a fluster, she tried to hand it back.

Jason took it from her smoothly, placing it in the cart. “It’s okay, let’s get it.”
