Chapter 18

Outside the glass facade of Veloura Design, the sunset painted the city in a blazing red glow. Laura hurried down the corridor, clutching her design drafts, and nearly bumped into Noah leaning casually against the door of the break room. She had planned to take a walk outside and was startled by his sudden appearance. Noah raised an eyebrow at her. "You're early again. Have you adjusted to the time difference yet?" Laura glanced at the empty conference room and answered him. After spending some time around Noah, she now started to see him in a new light. Even being around him no longer made her nervous. "Almost. I noticed most of the other teams aren't here, though. Did they all head out?" Noah turned to his office, grabbed a cup of coffee, and placed it in front of her. "There's a team-building event tonight, so no one needs to come to the office. But you're still keeping your habits from Caelondia." Laura smirked. "What can I say? I'm trying to learn from you." He was right.
