Frustrating Interruption

Kade's POV

I managed to put aside any other thoughts of my daughter's friend for an entire weekend. I was extremely proud of myself, seeing as it was a feat I had originally found impossible.

It was Sunday morning, and a plate of scrambled eggs sat in front of me, prepared by Elva. Beside the plate was my laptop, open to a Zoom meeting page.

I spooned a forkful of eggs into my mouth as I spoke. "Go on, Gregory."

"I...I mean, we would like to know when you would be returning to the head company, sir." Gregory said.

I sighed and dropped my fork. "Like I have said half a dozen times already, my business in New York is far from complete. When I am done, you will see me in Seattle."

Gregory opened his mouth to speak again, but was silenced by a loud knock on the door. I paused my breakfast to glance up, when another knock sliced through the silence.
