"Whoa, really?" Felicity's eyes went as wide as saucers, looking genuinely shocked.
"Yeah."
"That's just terrifying!" She rolled her eyes dramatically after her exclamation. "But, whatever. So what if I’m blacklisted? If no company hires me, I’ll just have my dad set me up with my own. I'll be my own boss!"
Silence fell.
Miles was at a loss for words.
This wasn’t how the script was supposed to go!
"As for the penalty fee, I've seen the contract. Triple the annual salary, right? I'll just have my dad wire it over!" She raised an eyebrow defiantly. "Anything else?"
"I… uh…"
"But you were right about one thing! Since I've submitted my resignation and you're not going to approve it, I might as well not bother. Thanks for the heads-up."
Felicity shut down her computer, grabbed her bag, and was ready to leave.
Fortunately, or unfortunately, Miles still had a grip on her arm. "Felicity, I just got transferred here and now you're quitting?"
"Yep! If you hadn't been transferred, I wouldn’t be quitting."
Her tactics of evading the issue and playing the victim had no effect on her!
"I won't do anything to you; I just wanted to be closer to you! Please don't quit, okay?"
"Not a chance! End of discussion." Felicity tried to wriggle free. "Let me go."
"If I let you go, you’ll just walk away."
Hence, he didn’t let go.
She was on the verge of laughing out of sheer frustration!
"Langston, where are your manners? Aren’t you supposed to be the cold, unreachable heartthrob that every girl dreams of? What's with this low move?"
Seeing his verbal skills failing him, Miles suddenly remembered a piece of advice from Abigail—sometimes, a kiss can solve everything!
He glanced at Felicity’s lips, his Adam's apple bobbing.
"If you don't behave, I might just kiss you!"
Silence.
Not because she was scared, but because…
Felicity thought Langston must've been possessed by some mischievous spirit.
