Chapter - 117
"You are here," Karen exclaimed when she looked up, hearing the knock. Alex was peeking inside through the door, "Come in," Karen said, gesturing to him with a wave of her hand.
Getting the say-so from Karen, Alex walked in, carefully closing the door behind.
With the coffee mug in one hand and the paper bag in his other, Alex stood in front of Karen silently, without saying a word.
"Take a seat. You are not in the army. Hahaha..." Karen tried to joke, only to laugh at it herself. While Alex just took the seat and did not say anything else. He was also trying to figure out how to make things less awkward.
"Ahem..." Clearing her throat, Karen adjusted herself, "So, how was it? Working with Daniel, I mean. I hope he did not boss you around," Karen asked, composing herself. Karen did not want to let the silence grow. Otherwise, soon it will make things awkward and hard to continue between them.
