“Don’t get any impractical ideas in your head if you still want a place in Lombard Group.”

Felix chose to advise Ophelia because of her capability at work.

He wouldn’t have given her any advice otherwise. He wasn’t some saint, nor was he a busybody.

Ophelia paled, not expecting Felix’s warning.

“Mr. Northley, I truly have no other intentions. I just want to stay by Mr. Tristan’s side.”

Despite knowing Tristan would never like her and she would never be his woman, she just wanted to be near him.

“I’m doing this for your own good. Pack your things. I’ve already had someone book your plane ticket.”

Ophelia took a step back from the shock.

“If you insist on sending me to Koandria, I’d rather resign.”

They won’t have any right to decide where I go if I resign. I don’t ever want to leave the country again after returning. I want to live on the same soil as him.

Felix frowned at her remarks.

“Do you know what you’re saying, Ophelia?”

She’d better think things through before making any decision. Crying will be pointless if she regrets it later. Many people want to be part of Lombard Group’s workforce, but not everyone gets that chance.

“I’ve already thought things through. I’d rather leave if I can’t stay by Mr. Tristan’s side.”

If that’s the only way for me to continue to stay by his side, I’m more than willing to resign.

“All right. I understand. Let me think about it.”

Ophelia nodded and left.
