This morning, Lucas woke up earlier. Slowly opening his eyes, he found Deasy still sound asleep in his embrace.For a moment, Lucas broke into a wide smile. Somehow, there was a surge of happiness in his heart. Like there was something that made him want to keep smiling. Perhaps it was the effect of last night's lovemaking, or maybe he was starting to feel something deeper for Deasy.Continuing to gaze, Lucas brought his hand up, gently pushing aside the scattered strands of hair on her face. Then, he softly stroked her cheek, moving down and stopping right at Deasy's swollen lips. Of course, this was because of his relentless kissing and nibbling from the night before."Lucas..."The hoarse voice came from Deasy, who had just awakened from Lucas's touch. She slowly opened her eyes, realizing that she was under the same blanket as Lucas, and startled, she quickly sat up, covering herself with the blanket."I-uh... we... last night we already...""Shh..." Lucas whispered immediately. H
"So, today you're really going on a work trip out of town?" Deasy looked sulky on the edge of the bed, observing Lucas intently as he was tidying up his black shirt wrapped around his body.As mentioned yesterday, Lucas did indeed have a two-day work schedule out of town. Whether she liked it or not, Deasy had to accept being left alone again. It was quite a pity.Just when Deasy had started to nurture feelings for the new relationship she and Lucas had started, now, when they were about to enjoy and experience the sweetness of the relationship, the man who had impregnated her had to leave again. Even though it was just for a short while, for some reason, it felt heavy. To be honest, Deasy wanted Lucas to be with her right now."Yeah, I'll only be gone for two days. It won't be long.""Not long?" Deasy retorted coldly. If you looked closely, her beautiful face still had a sulky expression. Maybe she was still upset because they had just met three days ago, and now he was going to disa
"Des, are you perfectly healthy?"Veronicastared at Deasy in horror. As usual, after work, she had invited Deasy to hang out at the coffee shop.After sitting for thirty minutes, Veronicanoticed that Deasy seemed odd. Her friend was smiling to herself as if she were crazy."What's up, Ve? I'm perfectly fine.""Then why are you smiling so strangely? Did you forget to take your medication or something?""Do you think I'm crazy?"Deasy sighed in annoyance. Her friend seemed to think she was crazy and mentally unstable. Furthermore, why was Veronicasuch a nosy friend? Everything that happened to Deasy was always commented on. Couldn't she just refrain from commenting, let alone getting involved so much? It was starting to irritate Deasy."You don't usually smile like that for no reason. It's making me curious. Besides, are you happy about something?""Guess, then..." Deasy replied casually, laughing. "Do you think I'm happy or sad?""Well, if you're laughing, you must be happy.""There yo
"Sir, why is your smile so unclear like that? You're not sick, are you?"In a different place, thousands of kilometers away from where Deasy lived, there was Lucas, who was currently in one of the hotel rooms in Singapore.The man was actually finishing some work but had to postpone it for a while because he had an obligation to keep his promise to contact Deasy whenever he had the opportunity. Moreover, Lucas also had to make sure that Deasy went to bed on time, just as he did when he was with her.Felix, who had been in Lucas's room all this time, looked puzzled. From the beginning, he had been observing Lucas who was engrossed in a phone conversation, and his boss seemed so happy and delighted. Was talking to someone on the other end such a mood booster for him?This also made Felix wonder. Who was the person Lucas was talking to on the phone and chatting with?"Mr. Lucas?" Felix asked again when his boss didn't respond."Hmm?""Is it true, Mr. Lucas, that you're under a spell or s
Lucas had just finished his meeting today. While waiting for his father, who was still engaged in discussions with his business partners, Lucas took the opportunity to contact Deasy, who was probably also taking a break from work.Lucas was curious, trying to guess what Deasy might be doing at the moment. Had she had lunch yet, or was she still busy with her work?That's why Lucas decided to send a short message, hoping for a quick response from Deasy.Lucas: Rolling dice, drinking herbal medicine. I miss you; luckily, we'll meet tomorrow.Deasy: There's a tortoise on the boat. Just kidding, I'm not missing you.While sitting in the restaurant, Lucas pursed his lips. He immediately searched for Deasy's contact and called her right away. Since he was currently disguised as Lucas Morales, he chose a regular phone call instead of a video call like the previous night."Are you serious about not missing me?" Lucas asked over the phone."No, just kidding," Deasy replied casually."Well then
"Sir, are you really going to stop by here? Don't you want to go home right away?"Lucas nodded. In the passenger seat, he seemed to double-check the wristwatch wrapped around his wrist."Yeah, right now. While I have the time. Besides, if I calculate it, the timing is just right.""Alright, I'll drop you off and keep you company."Making sure all his work was done without any loose ends, Lucas decided to head home early. Once he reached Jakarta, he asked Felix to take him to meet someone important.Usually, they'd meet at a café or restaurant, but this time Lucas chose to meet directly at the apartment.Fortunately, when he arrived, the person Lucas was looking for was waiting. As soon as he reached his destination, he immediately engaged in a one-on-one conversation."Why are you suddenly stopping by my apartment this late?"Devina promptly welcomed Lucas and Felix to enter. While she spoke in the living room, Felix chose to wait in the sitting area."It's only seven, Devina. Still
Deasy was getting ready to leave. While waiting for Veronica to pick her up, she decided to check her phone. She didn't want to miss any calls or messages from Lucas.Sure enough, when she checked, she found a short message that made her smile.Lucas: Darling, did you know? Physics is hard to forget. But you? It's hard not to miss you. I miss you so much.Deasy couldn't help but laugh. She wanted to call him, but since she was still in the lobby of the Forty-nine building, she decided to reply to his message instead.Deasy: If you miss me, come home quickly. So I can hug you right away. Or maybe you don't really like being with me all the time?It didn't take long for Deasy to wait for Lucas's response. A few seconds later, he replied from the other side.Lucas: I do like Harry Potter. But I like "Harry-harry" with you even more, darling.Deasy: That's so cheesy.Lucas: I swear, I'm serious. Besides, why would I insist on living with you if I didn't like it?Deasy: Alright, I believe
As she passed the health center, Deasy accidentally ran into the doctor who had treated her before. She smiled and greeted him politely."Good evening, Doctor.""Good evening, Miss Deasy. Just got off work?"Deasy nodded."Yes, Doctor. I just got off. Is your practice room nearby? Is that handsome boyfriend of yours not with you today?""Handsome boyfriend?"Deasy immediately made a puzzled expression. After the food delivery guy mentioned it yesterday, now the doctor who examined her was saying the same thing."Yeah," the doctor confirmed once more. "The one who carried and waited for Miss Deasy in the health center. What's his name? Mr. Lucas, right?""Yes, my boyfriend's name is Lucas," Deasy replied. Well, they were currently in a relationship, weren't they?"As far as I can see, your boyfriend is really attentive. He didn't leave Miss Deasy's side for a moment. He waited eagerly for Miss Deasy to wake up. It touched me."Deasy smiled, grateful for the extraordinary attention Luca
