When Ava arrived at the office, she went to meet Ethan. Lifting her hand, she rapped on the door.
"Come in," came out Ethan's voice.
Pushing the door open, Ava entered the room.
Ethan was caught off guard by her sudden arrival, his gaze shifting from the paperwork on his desk to her. His expression was a mix of surprise and curiosity. He stood up quickly.
"Ava… You could have just called me," he said, crossing the room toward her.
Ava clutched the file she had brought with her and approached him. "I wanted to come."
Ethan gestured toward the sofa. "Have a seat," he offered, moving to press the intercom button. "I'll ask someone to bring coffee for you."
Ava, however, raised a hand, halting his movement. "There is no need. I don't want anything."
Ethan hesitated for a moment, then pulled his hand back from the intercom. His gaze flicked to the file she was holding. "Is there something I can help you with?"
