But he never thought that he would feel this way seeing Carol with any other man. He was going crazy in anger, he felt like choking that guy till he lost his last breath.
He felt like going back to that café and dragging Carol and cage her somewhere, where no human exists so that no one can see her ever, her whole existence should only be for him.
Lucas’s anger subsided a little after he completely ruined his office; he left office angrily canceling all his meetings for the rest of the day.
He dismissed his driver and drove his car at full speed, he felt burning the whole world, he drove his car to the house in which he had planned to stay with Carol after marriage.
He entered the living room and dismissed the staff, he headed to the bar counter and started drinking.
He continued drinking till he lost all his senses, he was continuously mumbling, “Carol, you are mine, no one can touch you, you are only mine”
After drinking a lot he slept on the sofa mumbling the same thing again and again.
The next morning he woke up heavy-headed, and the incident from yesterday again came to his mind, he felt pissed but he thought to himself, “Lucas you have lost her, let her live the life she wants”
Trying to console himself and making himself strong to forget Carol he again tried to get back to his normal life.
After two days, Carol and Sam’s café was all ready for the opening, they both were very excited.
They had invited their close friends and family for the opening ceremony. They named their café Carol and Sam’s café.
Lucas who was working in his office got the call from one of his men, whom he had hired to keep an eye on Carol after the day he had seen her with Sam in the café.
Although he wanted to keep himself away from Carol’s life but unable to hold his heart and mind he hired a person to keep an eye on Carol all the time and report everything to him.
His men informed him about the café and the name of the café; he clicked a photo of the name board and sent it to Lucas.
The moment Lucas saw Carol’s name next to Sam, he felt his body on fire, he rushed out of the mumbling while grinding his teeth, “This is enough”
He said while to his secretary while rushing out, “Cancel all meetings and schedules till my next orders”
And by the time the secretary could tell him that he had an important meeting in the coming day, he was gone.
On the other hand, Carol was very happy, Carol and Sam had planned to get the ribbon-cutting ceremony done by their parents.
All were very happy and finally, the moment of the ribbon-cutting ceremony arrived, Carol had invited Alexa also, as James was not in the city Alexa was free so she came to share her friend’s happiness.
In fact, she was happy that Carol invited her after all these incidents.
Soon the ribbon-cutting ceremony started and everyone clapped happily once the ribbon was cut.
Carol felt so happy that he hugged Sam tightly and said, “Thank you so much for coming back. It wouldn’t have been possible without you”
Sam smiled and kissed on her forehead and said in a teasing tone, “Anything for my cry baby”
Carol hit on his chest and they walked inside.
After some time, Carol wanted to use the washroom and as the shop was in a mall, she had to walk to the bathroom which was in the extreme corner of the floor and there were very few people around.
Carol walked inside the bathroom and after finishing her job, and washing her face, she was looking at herself in the mirror, and the thought of Lucas crossed her mind, which she was trying hard to avoid.
She missed him, she cannot deny it, although she tried her best to avoid thinking about him, but if she is alone even for a moment his thoughts start to haunt her.
She again tried to jerk her thoughts and walked out of the bathroom, she was a little surprised to see no one around, but she didn’t think much about it and kept walking.
But just after a few steps, she felt a piercing pain in her neck and she zoned out before she could understand anything.
Before Carol could hit the floor being unconscious, Lucas held her in his arms and walked away with a gloomy face. It was visible that he was damn angry at this moment.
Carol woke up heavy-headed, unable to understand the situation, she sat and found herself on a very soft bed, and before she could look around to satisfy her curiosity, a voice startled her, “woke up?”
She turned and her face turned pale seeing Lucas looking at her angrily with his bloodshot eyes, he was taking long strides towards her and soon he hovered over her and said grinding his teeth, “How dare you let him touch you?”
Carol was puzzled about whom Lucas was talking to and what it has to do with him, she looked at him with a question mark face; he grabbed her jaws tightly, and said, “Who is that guy to you, huh?”
“I had told you, you are mine, then how dare you think of someone else?”
Carol was whining in pain, she said painfully, “President, what are you talking about?”
Her addressing him as President triggered his anger more; he forgot everything and kissed her roughly and passionately.
She was utterly shocked by Lucas’s behavior, she was suffocating because of the kiss, and kept on pushing him but he didn’t move even an inch and continued his assault.
As he was so lost in the sweet taste of her mouth he felt her suffocation and let her go, but today he was not satisfied only with the kiss he wanted more.
The scene of her hugging Sam, and him kissing her forehead was bringing a burning sensation in his entire body.
