Dr. Kian stopped merely a few feet away from Grace with his icy blue eyes fixed on her face. It was hard for her to guess what he was thinking as his expression appeared too blank and professional to give away anything at all.

For a moment, neither of them spoke and they just stood there in silence. Yet, the moment wasn't awkward as Grace was expecting it to be. Instead, there was some sort of warmth that his unexpected appearance brought. It was a weird feeling, but it was there.

Grace tried to think of something to say, but right at that moment, her phone started ringing. The call broke the silence and she quickly muted it before turning her attention back to the man.

But before she could have said anything, he was already speaking, "You seem busy right now, Ms. Blackwood. So I'll not keep you occupied here. How about we catch up over coffee next time?"
