Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 61. Date Me
Katherine POVI don’t know what to say. One moment Lucas Sanders was furious with me. He had gone ballistic. The next moment, he barged into my office, hugging me like it was the most logical thing to do.My cheeks flamed in a mixture of fear and excitement. He was my boss. I wanted to protest, but the protest died in my throat when his warmth enveloped me. One thing that registered in my head while I was tucked in his arms. It was how natural it felt to be enfolded in his arms. It was like Lucas Sanders and I had done this several lifetimes ago. And because it felt natural, my arms lifted to mimic his actions and encircled his waist. Then, I closed my eyes, savoring the feeling. By now, we were hugging each other like any lovers would. The idea made me feel fuzzy and warm inside. What was it about the man that made me do mad things that defy logic or reason?Why does it feel like I was the moth to Lucas’ flame? I can't help but always gravitate toward him when he is near.I

Lucas POV“She’s a cheater. You hated her.”Oliver reminded me when I told him what had transpired between me and Katherine earlier.I winced at the reminder. It seemed like a lifetime ago when I said those words that came to haunt me.But looking at things right now, I do not care anymore. Katherine is divorced. Maybe she could find it in her heart to love me again.I sensed her reaction every time I was near, and I can’t deny that there was that spark. I knew she felt it, too, but she was scared.I was scared, too.&n

Katherine POVAfter rejecting my boss and hearing him click the button to end our call, I regretfully put the phone down.My eyes then strayed to a social media post of Agatha Richards. It does not say a lot, but the picture and the caption tell a thousand words.I had to thank Veronica for coming to my office to show me this post.She saved me from making a decision that would spell disaster with a capital D.While I stared at the post, anger flared up within me.How could Lucas Sanders be so cruel? Did he think that I wouldn’t find out about his duplicity

Lucas POV“I wanted to know how Agatha Richards had the same exact ring as the one Dan bought for me,” I told Kurt that evening we met in my office.When I looked at the image, my anger shot through the roof. I checked the drawer where I kept the ring. It was intact.“Sir, the ring was not customized.” Dan pointed out.He came into the room and took the ring from the box to examine it before handing it to Kurt.Kurt began calling people, and within minutes, he had the answer we wanted.I frustratedly ran my fingers through my hair and sigh

Lucas POV“Hello, Erin.”Erin’s eyes zeroed in on the food bags, and they automatically sparkled like fairy lights.She jumped up and down in excitement.“Slow down!” I said, horrified.Suddenly, I panicked at the thought that the sudden movement would put a strain on her body. She was still recovering from her surgery.But Erin did not seem to mind.“Did you buy pancakes from Delia’s? It’s my favorite.” The delight in her voice was unmistakable.&n

Katherine POVI saw the disappointment in Lucas’ eyes when I came back dressed in jeans and a shirt. Until now, I was not confident with my appearance as a woman.Even Greg did not make me feel desired during those years we were married, especially in the months he was cheating on me.“Coffee?” Lucas offered the mug on the side.“I already made myself at home and asked Sara if I could borrow your coffee maker.” He explained with his palm on the back of his head after I received the mug.I nodded and thanked him before taking a sip.Erin stood on

Lucas POVI asked Erin to play with her dolls for a while when I received a notification from my phone.It was an email from Duke.There was a link and a message that said, I think this would make you happy. Enjoy watching.I clicked the link. At first, the lights blinded me. It was only later that I realized that it was an indoor shoot.In the video clip, Agatha came in while everyone was busy shooting.No one attended to her unlike before when she used to have a grand entrance and everyone goes “gaga” over her. The production crew, even the director, would fawn

Katherine POVMy eyes widened in horror when I heard Erin’s voice.I jumped out of my chair and ran out of the kitchen to find Veronica inside the apartment. She was talking to Erin, but the glint in her eyes was unmistakable when she met mine.I strode briskly to her side to grab her elbow so she could follow me to the kitchen, but Veronica resisted.She turned her gaze to our boss, who did not seem unfazed that one of my co-workers found him in my home.“Good morning, Mr. Sanders. I did not know that you and Katherine were friends.” She said in a tone that was full of meaning.I bit my lip and groaned in my head.“Mr. Sanders dropped by to visit Erin.”It was the truth anyway. He did not inform me he was coming over.At the same time, I shot Veronica a warning glare. She bit her lips, but I could feel her laughing at my embarrassment.After exchan

Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 97. B*stard Who Knocked Her Up
Lucas POVI watched the shock registering on Greg Combs and Katherine’s faces when I issued the declaration. It gave me immense pleasure letting this b*stard know that he made a mistake.I don’t intend to give Katherine up. Not for anything, now or ever. I took advantage of their surprise to slowly walk toward them.When I reached them, I snaked an arm around Katherine’s waist to show Greg that Katherine belonged to me and me alone. I watched in satisfaction when my action elicited a wince from Greg Combs. I wanted him to know that no amount of regret can change the past. It already happened. All we have to do is accept things as they are. If he had changed his mind and regretted the decision to divorce Katherine, then he could live in misery because I was never going to give her up for anything.“Katherine is mine,” I told the shocked Greg Combs.“She has always been mine to begin with.” I reiterated when he recovered from the initial shock. When he did, I saw a trace of regre
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 96. Owned The World And Me
Katherine POVI stared blankly at him while I gripped my phone in my hand. I don’t know what to say. Greg looked so much like how I looked before when I found out that he was having an affair with Noreen Jacobs. I was looking at the face of betrayal. I shook my head in an attempt to discredit the accusation. All the while, I was acutely aware of the people around us. This is a sidewalk. Passersby would notice us and couldn’t help but have an earshot. Even if they did not mean to snoop, Greg’s voice was loud enough to be carried by the wind. Everyone within earshot could not help but hear what he had to say. “I saw you.” He spits out. A frown formed on my head. “Saw me where?” I was clearly confused and wanted to be enlightened. Greg did not disappoint as he began a monologue that depicted an unsavory image of me. “You came out of his car not just once but all the time since I decided to observe.”Then, he brushed his fingers to his oily hair and gave a self-deprecat
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 95. Affair With Lucas Sanders
Katherine POVIt was funny to watch him stutter as he tried explaining to our daughter what we were doing. “A kiss is an expression of love.” He told Erin. “So you love my mommy?” Erin asked. He nodded.Erin seemed satisfied by his response, and Lucas began to relax.A moment later, Erin turned her head toward him and asked. “If you love mommy, why is that girl kissing you?” Erin looked like she was about to cry,Now, that was something I did not expect to hear. My eyes turned to Lucas sharply. I heard Lucas cough out loud before glancing in my direction. My right brow arched upon hearing the information, leaving Lucas unsure of how to react. I would have remained oblivious to the whole thing if Erin did not mention it. Lucas gulped. He shook his head and began explaining with his eyes trained on me, magnifying his guilt. “You just said it. She was kissing me, not the other way around.” Lucas explained.He was watching my face for any change, but I remained impassive. It
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 94. Caught
Katherine POVThe way Lucas looked at me tells me a lot about the engagement ring that had gone viral a few months ago.My chest constricted.“The ring was for you.” He said shyly when Duke left, confirming what I already knew in my heart.Then, he sat beside me on the couch. I did not know“I was buying something for Agatha, a token to show her that I was willing to see her more than a friend.” I felt a blockage in my airways when he began to tell me about the ring I saw in Agatha’s post. The one that gave me the impression that he was toying with me.“A solitaire diamond ring caught my eye. At that time, I hated you for lying and choosing Greg over me, but the ring kept tugging at me. I bypassed the ring and left, but there was this restlessness inside, a feeling of regret. I asked Dan to go back to Hugo’s Creations to buy the ring under his name,
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 93. Not For Agatha
Katherine POVI nodded, and this time I allowed him to pull me to his chest. Lucas wrapped his arms around me, lightly dropping a kiss on my forehead.“I love you.” He said, but I remained silent. Right now, I can not define what I felt for Lucas. There was attraction and some feelings, but not enough to consider it love. “I don’t know what to say,” I told him honestly and shook my head. There was a subtle shift in him. I must have hurt him by being honest. I cupped his chin to force him to meet my gaze. “You know you are special, and I am attracted to you. I also like how you are good to me and a great father to Erin.” I told him sincerely while looking into his eyes. “But not enough to love me.” His reply hinted at bitterness, and I pulled him nearer for a quick kiss. He took advantage of our position. He grabbed the back of my head to deepen the kiss. Lucas began exploring my mouth. He was nibbling my lips, sending tingles all over my body, and down to my toes. I pushe
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 92. I Promise
Katherine’s POVI swallowed hard after being confronted by the fury in Agatha’s gaze. The loathing in her eyes shook me to the core. Lucas told me she used to be my best friend, but her facial expression showed nothing except hatred. “You shouldn’t have come back!” She snarled, causing a shiver of fear to run through my spine, creating goosebumps. If looks could kill, I would have been dead by now from Agatha’s piercingly cold glare. I covered Erin’s ears with my hands. I don’t want her to hear anything Agatha says. “Why did you have to come back? Why did you have to mess with our lives? Lucas is mine!” Agatha spat the words out.She looked half-crazed, frothing in the mouth in anger. I was tongue-tied. Even Noreen did not look at me like this; with pure unadulterated hatred.I shook my head as fear spread through me. Not for myself but for Erin. I had been avoiding this kind of scene when Lucas suggested we work on us. Agatha was his unfinished business.Now, everything is sp
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 91. Trip To The Executive Floor
Katherine POVWhen we entered Lucas’ office, we found Oliver and Vern still there talking. Vern dropped the sketch pad and pencil to a nearby table when he saw us coming in. He then unrolled his tape measure, asking his assistant to jot down the measurements. I nudged Erin, silently urging her to approach Vern. To my surprise, my little girl ignored me and walked straight to Oliver, who sat on the couch upon our arrival. “Don’t be bad next time, Uncle Olly, okay?” She sure sounded grown-up. She looked too little against Oliver's frame when she looked at him with her head tilted back. I bit my lips while Lucas grinned from ear to ear. Oliver, on the other hand, looked surprised. He grinned and gamely responded. “Yes, ma’am.” Erin nodded. She beckoned for Oliver to lean his head closer. He bent to bring his head closer, arms went around her little body. When they were close, Erin wrapped her small arms around his neck.“Thank you, Uncle Olly. You are my third favorite person
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 90. Deal With
Katherine POVI watched in amusement how Lucas tried to appease Erin.“It’s not like that, Erin.”Erin crossed her arms to her chest, looking like Lucas looked earlier when he tried to block Oliver from me.“No! From now on, she is my mommy only!” Erin declared, brooking no argument.Lucas looked like he was about to cry.He was flustered and red while trying to control himself. While it amused me to see him try so hard to convince his stubborn daughter that it was not the same. It looked like Erin was getting the upper hand in this case.&
Goodbye Jerk, Hello Mr. Perfect? Chapter 89. Share Mommy
Katherine POV“Good morning, Katherine.” Lorrie greeted me when I stepped outside the elevator. She came out of the pantry bearing a mug of steaming coffee. I remembered the coffee Lucas and I shared that morning, and my heart began to beat faster than usual when I thought about the kiss. “Good morning, Lorrie. Any urgent tasks for me today?” I asked, stopping for a while.Lorrie shook her head. We walked alongside each other toward our office, talking about my schedules.I appreciate Lorrie for making my professional life super dandy.“You have a meeting at ten o’clock with the boss.” She informed me. My brows furrowed. I had no recollection of Lucas mentioning the meeting to me. But maybe Lucas did not know either because Dan handles his schedules. I began signing documents, and when I finished, I prepared for my ten o’clock meeting with the boss. Ten minutes before ten, clutching my notebook, pen, and report for our department, I left my office for the meeting. “I am going
