Chapter 312: Danger incoming



Diana took a deep breath, her voice filled with vulnerability. "Marcus, this evening... Thank you." she said in a tiny voice. "It really made my night"

"I have wanted to do this for a long time before the incident happened and then you know all that happened. I am glad I have been able to do this now, it might not have been perfect as I want but I\'m glad that you like it," Marcus said as he leaned closer to her ears while playing with silky hair.

The night drew to a close, Marcus and Diana exchanged a tender kiss, sealing their newfound bond while retiring for the night in preparation for work the next day.

***********************

After their enchanting evening together, Marcus and Diana found themselves back in the familiar routine of their work lives. The following morning, they were up early with a renewed sense of purpose, while their hearts still brimmed with the love and connection they had just forged even though they were not living together "yet" in Marcus\'s mind.

Marcus and Diana had decided to take things slowly in their relationship, which meant they continued living in separate houses for the time being. Marcus had an important business meeting with Sofia, but he chose not to disclose this information to Diana, wanting to spare her any unnecessary worries or insecurities.

He couldn\'t help but feel a slight pang of guilt as he remembered postponing work and seemingly taking advantage of Sofia\'s interest in him for his personal time off. The business meeting could not be put off any longer after all it had been postponed for two weeks, and it was time for him to attend it.

As Marcus left for his meeting, Diana went directly to the office to handle the work left off after her break to catch up on all she needed to do. She spent the afternoon engrossed in her own work, reflecting on the progress she had made during her therapy sessions and the growing connection she felt with Marcus, she felt a great enthusiasm towards the future.

Marcus entered the meeting room, his mind focused on the task at hand. He knew that maintaining a professional demeanor was crucial, especially given the history between him and Sofia. He couldn\'t let any personal distractions cloud his judgment or jeopardize his commitment to Diana.

Sofia, dressed impeccably as always, greeted him with a warm smile. "Marcus, it\'s been too long. I\'m glad we finally have the chance to discuss our business matters amongst our many matters. So tell me how have you been? You look so much like your charming self now. Tell what have you been up to?"

Marcus returned the smile, determined to keep the conversation on track. "Indeed, Sofia. Let\'s discuss work to make sure that all things are covered before discussing our matters. Shall we?" he asked with a show of hands towards the seats with appropriate distance between them.

As they began discussing the business agenda, Marcus\'s professionalism shone through. He delved into the intricacies of the project, asking pointed questions and offering valuable insights. Sofia, though visibly disappointed by the lack of personal connection, couldn\'t deny his expertise and dedication to the task at hand.

Sofia, however, couldn\'t help but inject hints of flirtation and personal interest into their interactions. She leaned closer, her voice tinged with seduction. "Marcus, I must say, I\'ve missed our connection over the past two weeks. I can\'t help but wonder what might have been if we hadn\'t been interrupted."

Marcus, committed to being honest and transparent, maintained his composure. "Sofia, I appreciate your interest, but I want to be upfront with you. I have recently entered into a relationship with someone, and I really love her so much.

I understand your interest in him and I appreciate the enthusiasm but I would really appreciate it if our connection is strictly professional, and I hope we can maintain a productive working relationship."

He noticed Sofia\'s change in expression, but he attributed it to her disappointment over his decision. He didn\'t suspect that there was something more brewing beneath the surface. Oblivious to her hidden agenda, he replied to her question with genuine enthusiasm.

"Yes, Diana has been such a positive influence in my life," Marcus responded, a smile playing on his lips. "She\'s been there for me during difficult times, and her support has been invaluable. I can\'t express how grateful I am to have her by my side."

Sofia\'s eyes narrowed slightly as she listened to Marcus\'s words. His joy and gratitude for Diana seemed to confirm her suspicions. She sensed that there was more to this relationship than met the eye. Her mind raced, contemplating the possible avenues to gather more information as she picked up on the name of the lady.

Casually, Sofia leaned back in her chair, feigning nonchalance. "So, Marcus, wow wow, ease up there, she\'s called Diana? What a wonderful name? Does she stay around here or out of this city? I\'m curious to know more about her."

Marcus, caught off guard by the question, paused for a moment before answering cautiously. He didn\'t want to reveal too much, but he also didn\'t want to arouse any suspicion. "Well, Diana has her own place. It\'s a cozy apartment not far from where I stay. We spend a lot of time together, and it\'s been wonderful getting to know her."

Sofia\'s eyes gleamed with interest, her mind racing with possibilities. She now had a clue about where Diana lived, and it provided her with a starting point for further investigation. She decided to probe a little deeper, hoping to uncover more details.

"Hmmm, did you meet at work? Can you tell me what she does?" Sofia asked, attempting to sound casual. "I\'m just curious about her life, you know, since she means so much to you."

Marcus, still guarded in his responses, chose his words carefully. "She is quite into the real estate industry. She\'s quite passionate about her career and does an amazing job there."

Sofia\'s mind raced, noting the pieces of information she had gathered. She now had a general idea of Diana\'s location and her workplace. It was a starting point, but she knew she had to be careful in her investigation. She didn\'t want to cross any boundaries or invade Diana\'s privacy.

Keeping her composure, Sofia smiled at Marcus. "Thank you for sharing those details. I\'m glad to see you so happy with Diana. She must be an incredible woman."

Marcus nodded, his eyes filled with warmth. "She truly is. Diana has brought so much joy into my life, and I feel lucky to have her."

As the conversation continued, Marcus remained oblivious to Sofia\'s ulterior motives. He was caught up in the excitement of his relationship with Diana, unaware of the dangers lurking in Sofia\'s mind.

Sofia, on the other hand, began formulating a plan to gather more information about Diana, driven by a mix of curiosity, jealousy, and a desire to uncover any potential weaknesses in their relationship.

Little did Marcus know that his encounter with Sofia would have far-reaching consequences, setting the stage for a series of events that would test the strength of his bond with Diana and challenge them to confront the shadows of their pasts.
