“I hate him! I’ve become unlike myself because of him, I lost everything because of him!” Lucy complained sadly, the past scenes were really pains she can’t forget!
Leo sighed, and finally made up his mind. He gently pressed Lucy’s head against his chest with one hand, and gently encircled her with the other.
His mellow and nice voice came from the top of Lucy’s head, “Lucy, will you marry me? I swear, no matter what you become and what will happen to you in the future, I will never leave you!”
“I will definitely be there to protect you and take care of you! As long as I can be with you every day, I want nothing more!”
“Lucy, as long as you say yes! After all these years, you still can’t see my heart for you?”
Leo confessed his heart sentence after sentence. Lucy in his arms was quiet and motionless. But her heart was messed up! She vaguely felt that Leo had different feelings for her, but she always convinced herself that they were like brothers and sisters!
Now, the matter between her and Smith had not been sorted out, and Leo suddenly confessed to her…
Leo held Lucy’s head with his hands, and let her look at him. His hopeful gaze fell on Lucy’s still tear-stained face, obviously waiting for her answer.
Lucy looked away with some guilt, and opened her mouth for a long time, but only said the word “I” and couldn’t continue. She really didn’t know what she should do!
Leo’s original shiny eyes dimmed a little, with disappointment written on his face, but when he saw Lucy’s tightly pressed mouth, he immediately concealed these emotions. She had been annoying enough, why did he have to push her so tightly?
Leo smiled pretentiously, and his tone was brisk, “It’s okay, girl, no hurry. I’m willing to wait for you, you can take your time and think about it!”
After finishing speaking, he gently embraced Lucy into his arms again, but Lucy gently struggled for a while, trying to get out of his embrace. Feeling Lucy ‘s resistance, Leo thoughtfully let go, keeping a certain distance from her.
On the way back, both of them were silent, like the moonlight, shining lonely and silently on the earth.
After sleeping deeply all night, Lucy finally recovered a little. But what gave her a headache was that as soon as she arrived at the office, her assistant reported to her that Smith wanted to ask her out!
Lucy frowned and refused! Why was this man still lingering?
The assistant murmured as he walked out, “I also think it’s better not to go! Who knows if he has a grudge against you because of the last project? He might do something bad to you!”
Smith was not like that, but Lucy didn’t bother to explain. After a while, she saw her assistant holding the telephone receiver at the door and making gestures. Lucy understood, and picked up the telephone receiver in the office.
“Are you sure you don’t want to come?” Smith’s voice came from the earpiece. Although it seemed that he was asking questions, the self-confidence revealed was unmatched, as if he was certain that Lucy would come!
“Don’t you understand what my assistant said? Can you stop calling me in the future?!” Lucy was about to hang up after speaking.
But Smith’s next sentence successfully attracted Lucy’s attention. “A shocking secret about the Fu family! Don’t you want to know it?”
Lucy’s breathing stopped. Although she knew that Smith deliberately made things unnecessarily complicated, she still wanted to know that secrect, which was called a shocking secret by Smith…
“Just spit it out!” Lucy said in a bad tone.
Smith turned a deaf ear and was not annoyed, “This matter is too complicated, it is not clear on the phone! Let’s talk in person. When you get off work, I will ask the driver to pick you up!”
Smith immediately hung up the phone after he finished speaking, not leaving a slightest chance to Lucy to argue, which made Lucy’s mind full of this matter, and could not deal with any documents.
After work, Lucy’s pace of leaving couldn’t help speeding up. Sure enough, the driver was already waiting for her outside. This time, Lucy didn’t hesitate and got into the car happily. The driver was also secretly relieved.
After driving the car for a long time, Lucy couldn’t help wondering why he had to go so far to talk about the Fu family matters. It’s almost dark.
Finally, the driver opened the door for her, letting Lucy in by herself. This should be a restaurant, she still can’t figure out what was this mysterious secret?
After pushing the door open, she found that there were no lights in the dining room, and delicate candlesticks were placed on each table, and candles with carved flowers were lit. The initiator, Smith, was holding a bunch of flowers, standing elegantly in the middle, and smiled gently when he saw Lucy coming in.
Lucy smiled mockingly! He’s not talking about the Fu family matters, it’s clearly a cover! He just tricked her to come here and set a candlelight dinner somehow. Did Smith think he was romantic?! He was deceiving!
Lucy turned around and left.
