‘Who wouldn’t want to stay home with a beauty like this around?’
Elias’s jaw slowly tightened.
His expression darkened more and more with every passing second.
Felix glanced at him through the mirror before letting out a low laugh.
“Mr. Creed… I think you should hurry up,” he muttered. “At this rate, Mrs. Creed might really bring home a new husband before you know it.”
The second those words left his mouth, Elias looked up.
The glare he shot Felix was so deadly that Felix instantly shut his mouth.
His hands tightened around the steering wheel.
“Sir…” he muttered cautiously. “The light turned green. I’ll drive you home.”
Suddenly, Elias grabbed the pen in his hand and flung it forward violently.
The pen smacked Felix hard in the shoulder.
Felix flinched.
Elias leaned forward slightly in the backseat, his dark eyes burning through the rearview mirror.
“What the fuck makes you think I can go home after seeing this?” he snarled, rage flashing across his face.
Felix froze.
Elias’s jaw clenched as he stared ahead with a furious expression.
“Drive to Amara’s house.”
Felix rubbed his shoulder with a wince where the pen had hit him before tightening his grip on the steering wheel again. Without wasting another second, he quickly turned the car around and sped off toward Amara’s apartment.
Thankfully, the roads were almost empty at that hour.
The car cut through the streets smoothly, the city lights flashing past the windows while a heavy silence filled the vehicle. Elias sat in the backseat with a terrifyingly dark expression, his jaw tight the entire drive.
It didn’t take long before the car finally pulled up outside Amara’s building.
Before Felix could even properly stop the engine, Elias shoved the door open and stepped out.
His long strides quickly closed the distance as he headed straight toward the entrance.
A security guard immediately rushed forward and blocked his path.
“Sir, you can’t go inside—” the guard started nervously. “You need to verify your identity first—”
Elias didn’t even spare him a glance.
He simply shifted to the side, trying to walk past him.
The security guard quickly stepped in front of him again, looking panicked now, but before the situation could escalate, Felix hurried over.
He grabbed the guard by the shoulder and pulled him aside.
“Come here, come here,” Felix said quickly with a strained smile. “I’ll handle everything. I’ll do the verification process. Let’s talk over here.”
