Even so, Lucas was adamant. "I'm afraid I shouldn't trouble Miss Sachs, especially since I don't know her.""You do now, don't you?" Maron said, spreading his hands. Why else would he ask them to join him in dinner together?Lucas's phone rang before he could speak, and his expression changed ever so slightly when he saw it."Sorry, I need to take this," he said. Then, he rose to his feet and left.Maron watched as Lucas left. He then turned to tell Cordy, saying, "Don't get upset with him. He seems difficult, but he's actually a good man. He went through great lengths to help me with all the problems I had in Minerva.""Maybe we just got off on the wrong foot," Cordy said, not intending to hide anything—nor did she have the capacity to keep doing so. "Well, it's not you he's upset with," Maron sighed. "He can't be blamed, either. I mean, you can see how good looking he is. All the ladies always flock to him. In fact, one even went as far as kidnapping him—that's why he's trau

Cordy left the restaurant, having had enough.It had been years since she encountered someone with such a rotten personality!Once she was outside, she called Sean to give her a ride. The capital was a little cold in January, and Cordy waited out on the chilly streets.Her anger rose further the more she thought about Lucas. Never had someone gotten on her nerves the way he did! Even Noel would take the trouble to maintain a polite demeanor just for appearances' sake!She took a deep breath when she saw a familiar car stop beside her.Sean alighted, and quickly put an arm around her shoulder when he saw her shivering in the cold. He opened the door for her to ride shotgun.Cordy was still rubbing her hands even after she got into the car—there was a heater in most event halls, so there was no need to wear layers.While she would never wear too much so she wouldn’t look bloated, she still didn’t expect to be left dying from the cold in the streets after the fashion show was ove

Perhaps she panicked too much, or maybe she hadn’t paid attention when she tied the towel around herself… Suddenly, her towel loosened and fell off her body right in front of that man, leaving her completely naked."Argh!!!" she screamed even harder.She once had her reputation torn to shreds, but only because someone had framed her—she had never felt this embarrassed in her entire life! Lucas could feel his eardrums splitting from the sound of her voice.He looked up again, and Cordy flushed deeply as she could sense his steely gaze. "W-What are you looking at?!""You're the one who took them off for me, aren't you?" Lucas retorted in disdain."C-Close your eyes! Now!""Why?" Lucas was unmoved, and started to stare at her even more.Cordy was on the verge of tears!The man was as conceited as he was unreasonable! She could die right there and then!Swiftly picking up her towel from the floor, she tried her best to cover herself.Lucas, however, was lying nonchalantly on th

Outside the bathroom, Lucas hissed every word through gritted teeth, "This is my room!""What are you—""I just called the front desk. She gave you the wrong key card!" he snapped rather grumpily, clearly out of patience. "My room is 999, yours is 666! She had a mix up and accidentally swapped our cards, get it?" Cordy did a double take—to think a luxury hotel like this would make such a cheap mistake! "If you understand, get out," Lucas urged, annoyed. "Stop loitering in my room.""Who's loitering?" Cordy snapped, her temper unleashed right there and then.There was just no way she could stay patient with this unreasonable man!"Then are you coming out or not?!""I…I'm fucking naked!" Cordy swore; he was the first man who made her breathe an expletive! She wasn’t paying attention before she entered the bathroom, and had thrown her clothes on the couch outside. She didn’t bring in a clean set of clothes when she came in, either.She only had a towel on right now; she cer

Cordy was aware that Lucas had no interest in her, since he never batted an eye when he saw her naked outside.In truth, she just wanted to retaliate at him for being so conceited and thinking that she wanted to seduce him.Lucas, fed up with her outburst, growled through his teeth, "Shut up!"Cordy refused to listen, however, and kept twisting and struggling beneath him as she tried to push him away.Even if he didn’t look fat, he was as heavy as a steel bar; his weight could crush her!"Don't you dare move!" he threatened. "Just get off me already, you pervert!" Cordy screamed, wanting nothing less than to vent all the grievances she suffered because of him. Lucas's eyes narrowed as he threatened coolly, "Pervert, was it?"There was a dangerous flash in his eyes, and Cordy's chest tightened in response.She tried to push him away again as she continued to snap, "Get off me—mmph!"Cordy's eyes widened as Lucas suddenly kissed her.How dare he!With zero hesitation, she o

At that moment, Cordy wanted nothing more than to punch Lucas repeatedly.He had just seen her naked, and now, he was shouting out at her?!What gave him the right?!"You know I'm getting changed, but you came in here anyway?" she bellowed back at him. "What were you up to? Aren't you the one interested in my body? Stop pretending already!""You're nuts!" Lucas spat, and ignored her naked body once more as he strode up to her.He picked up the phone he had dropped earlier without knowing, and once again stalked off.Fuck!Cordy's body was shaking with rage.Why did she have to meet such a despicable man?! After angrily putting on her clothes and making sure that she showed no skin, she strode out of the bathroom.Lucas was lying in bed and fiddling with his phone; his eyes shifted to her briefly when she came out, but he said nothing. Cordy didn’t say anything to him either. She picked up the room's phone and called the front desk. In an angry voice, she heaved, "What's go

In other words, Cordy’s face mask was still in Lucas’s room.She made it a habit to use one every night—she was 29, and had to do some upkeep.At the thought that Lucas was going to give her a telling off if she went to get it now, she simply gave up.Seeing that it was too late for deliveries, she simply got in bed to sleep.It had been a busy day, and exhaustion seized her as she lay down.She probably wouldn’t need sleeping pills either… But as she started to doze off, she was jolted awake by an abrupt knock on her door, which made her jump awake.It was so difficult for her to get some natural sleep!Who the hell was that?!Furious, she threw off her blanket and got out of bed, her hair a mess as she opened the door violently. Lucas stood outside her door, his bathrobe loosely draped over his shoulders and baring his chest.His hair was dripping wet, and he was almost soaked through."What are you doing, dressed like that in the middle of the night?" Cordy demanded, a
A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 589
Although Cordy picked a thicker set of clothes, she still felt a little cold after putting them on.After musing on it for a while, she decided to go shopping for some thicker clothing with Sean.Just as she stepped out of her hotel room and entered the elevator, she saw a familiar figure inside, and was left lamenting that she had to run Lucas everywhere she went.Lucas was scowling when he saw her too, and muttered sarcastically under his breath, "You really know your timing."Cordy ignored him—there was nothing to say to despicable men like him.The elevator descended, stopping halfway as many guests swarmed inside, seemingly from a tour group of elderly women. Cordy was squeezed further inside the elevator, and one of the elderly women knocked into her.Cordy lost her balance, and fell squarely over Lucas.She didn’t need imagination to expect more sarcasm from the man, and even steeled herself for it…but it never came.She frowned, and straightened herself away from him
