February 14, 2021: Rendezvous

"I just met up with an old acquaintance. Besides, why are you even asking? It's not like you to be concerned about where I am and what I do." Kara said in a way that would spite Konrad. 

She didn't think for a second that he was concerned about her. Their relationship had no space where it could foster consideration. As a matter of fact, that would be the last thing that she'd ask from her husband. 

Konrad simply engaged his wife in a staredown. Speaking any further would warrant her taunting. He was definitely not keen on ruining his mood by talking with such an aggressive character that early in his day. 

Since he didn't show any intentions of getting out of the elevator, adding to the reality that Syn was with them, his guards already knew what to do. Rohan hurriedly pressed the down button. In the meanwhile, the other three arranged themselves in order to hide Syn's figure from Kara's vision. To their relief, the woman seemed to be fixated on Konrad.
