After Oliver wouldn't commit to a relationship with Felicity after thinking all he could do was put her in danger, it let open up the possiblity that Felicity and Ray got together. Ray is very impressed with Felicity's intelligence, even offering a job for her after wondering why she is working at a dead end job as a cashier girl at an electronics store. He later busup the company that owns the electronic store in order to hire her and give her a better job that fits her expertise. At first, Felicity didn't like Ray very much because he presented himself as arrogant when he, in her point of view, stole Queen Consolidated from Oliver and refused to work with him. However, deep down Ray was actually a kind and caring man. Grieving for the loss of Sara, Felicity was supposedly furious with him for buying out the owner of the electronic store she worked at. However Ray could tell she was upset about something else, and he didn't force her to tell her what it was but instead assured her that it would get better one day.

By the time of John and Lyla Michael's wedding to each other, Ray and Felicity were officially boyfriend and girlfriend.
