I will. I'm going to tell him everything. I'm going to tell him about Sam. Or do you think maybe I should just wait until weekend." "NO! Do so now!

"Alright. I'm at the company now. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks, Ray. I'm glad I confided in you." Evel Evelyn said before hanging up.

As the cab pulled up in front of Stone Corp, her stomach tightened. Evelyn took a deep breath as she stepped out of the cab, straightening her shoulders as she walked inside.

"Good morning. Mr Stone. Here's your coffee, she greeted pleasantly Exclyn watched with a grin as his brad sapped up from his phone and she grinned as his face lit up when he saw her "Is this a dream?" He asked as he rose, ut dir giggled.

I didn't think you'd be so shocked." "You're really here? I'm not seeing things?" he asked, sounding genuinely pleased, his eyes warm with affection "You're not seeing things," she assured him.

"To what do I owe the pleasure?" He asked as he stepped out of his seat.

Evelyn laughed, shaking her head. "I don't need the whole day, just stto talk" Derek's expression shifted slightly, a shadow of concern flickering across his face. His eyes darted around the room, and Evelyn could sense the sudden tension in his body.

The bug. She saw it in his eyes- the uncertainty of whether his office was still compromised, Without a word, he pushed himself away from the table and walked over to her, taking her arm gently. "Can we go somewhere else?" he asked quietly, his voice low. "I'm not sure we should talk here." Evelyn nodded. "Sure." Derek dipped his phone into his pocket before picking up the coffee she had brought him and his car key. "Let's go," he said, leading her out of the office.

Derek's hand stayed on the small of her back as he guided her out of the office, seeing tingles down her spine.

He paused only to speak to his secretary. "Cancel my appointments t for the rest of the day, please he instructed her before turning back to Evelyn. "Where do you think we should go?" He asked as they got into the elevator. "Anywhere else is fine," Evelyn assured him A small smile crept onto Derek's lips, a look of nostalgia crossing his features. "You said something similar when we first met, he murmured, almost to himself Evelyn smiled, feeling a bit of the tension case from her shoulders. "Hm"

They descended to the underground parking, where Derek's car was waiting. As they settled inside, Dere turned to her with a playful smile. "So. anywhere, huh? How about we go to my hotel like we did then?" Evelyn laughed softly, "Your hotel? Alright, that works," she said, thinking that it was probably a good place to tell him everything since their relationship and started there.
