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

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

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

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

The elderly woman was still fuming. After moving away, she growled, "Youngsters these days… They leave their manners at home!"Not one to back down, Lucas retorted, "So you didn't turn senile with age. You're just rotten in the first place."Cordy watched as that elderly woman grew livid, and felt glad for a second—women of this type tend to throw the weight of their seniority around to disrespect everyone.Soon, the elevator reached the lobby, and the elderly woman left with the others in a huff.Cordy shifted, and Lucas quickly released her as if he touched something filthy. He didn’t forget to mock her. "Don't give yourself too much credit. You'd be pushed towards me if that woman kept pushing you—that's why I snapped at her. Also, I despise physical contact the most.""I never did," Cordy replied as she strode out of the elevator. She wanted to thank him, but then thought that it was unnecessary. She strode straight towards the hotel entrance, and caught a chilling breeze
