Bickering with the guard
“Sir, I can’t let you inside.”
The guard outside the Lancaster Corp stopped Lucas by force, he had been holding the man by the shoulders to prevent the young man from intruding.
“Hey, I’m telling you… I’m here to meet your boss. Can’t you just figure out such a small thing in your head?”
Lucas yelled at him while holding the bouquet in his hand, they both struggled with each other.
“But sir you have to have an appointment letter for that.”
The guard explained to him the reason why Lucas was stopped midway outside the building. The man groaned and jerked him off then sighed helplessly.
‘He is just doing his duty but what should I do now? Without an appointment letter it seems I can’t get inside, but where do I get a letter at this hour?’
Lucas sighed and walked away from the entrance of the Corp, the guard returned to his place.
‘It is impossible for me to find a letter now, since my wife is angry with me. There is no way she will write me a letter to get inside now.’
The man had never felt helpless in any case before but somehow Nathalie had successfully made him feel in need. The lady was in the meeting at that moment when he had arrived, and was totally unaware by his emergence.
‘Should I try once more?’
Lucas had to find a way to get inside, but perhaps there was no other way for him to do the deed than… The man went back to the guard who became alerted at once.
“Hey listen, I really don’t want to disclose this but,”
He leaned in towards the guard and whispered to the man in a serious tone.
“I’m the husband of your boss!”
Lucas spouted the truth but the guard kept quiet and kept on staring at him with squinted eyes. The guard burst in wholehearted laughter after hearing his words.
“Sure, if you are her husband then I’m her dad!”
The guard wiped off his tears of happiness and then stared at Lucas, while mocking him.
Lucas was taken aback by the words and knew that his truth didn’t work and now nothing else will work too. Thus he moved away and walked towards the exit, Lucas rattled out his phone and gave a call to his PA Mark, the poor guy was being used to make up the little things for his boss.
Soon Lucas returned with a piece of paper which Mark had crafted out with Nathalie’s signatures on it. The guard saw it with suspicious eyes but he let Lucas pass because the signatures were genuine.
“Now lets see where I can find a place to talk to her now.”
He was well aware that Nathalie would be in the meeting where she was supposed to meet the Petrakis heir for the first time, but the CEO refused to come.
“She should be in the meeting with my men, that means I have to find a place close to her boardroom.”
A sinister smile appeared on his lips as Lucas strode inside and seduced the ladies at the reception with his smile and charms. No doubt the man was well aware of his looks and had been using them for his advantage.
He got the way and walked towards the elevator, soon Lucas was on the desired floor and knew the boardroom.
“This should be the perfect place to talk, privacy is priority.”
He was well aware that Nathalie would not forgive him for tarnishing her reputation, thus Lucas chose the nearby store room to talk to her. He kept a keen eye on the door and in no time the people began to leave the boardroom.
‘This is my chance now!’
He exclaimed with happiness after seeing Nathalie coming out of the room. Seeing the perfect chance Lucas lunged towards her and covered her mouth so she couldn’t shout at him. After all, what if somebody caught him in that ‘abducting’ posture he would be thrown out immediately.
And things will get worse if Nathalie refused to consider him as her husband.
The man pulled her and dragged the lady in the sore room by lifting her up from the waist, soon they both were in the midst of the storage room alone. Lucas knew that his method was not right and it would have infuriated her but he had to do something.
“I know I should have known by limits and shouldn’t have come here either, but how could I let the things get out of my hands when I can fix them.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Lucas began to explain himself by starting on the lighter part and then moved to the incident, while Nathalie let him speak because she wanted to hear what he had to say.
“But believe me I’m innocent in this whole thing, that girl… I don’t know her at all. You can ask anybody but you know I don’t lie to you.”
Nathalie could sense emotions and sincerity in his eyes and somehow she was moved by his words. Lucas resumed his speech by confirming that she wouldn’t shout.
“And about coming late… erm… your guard didn’t let me in so I had to bribe him.”
Of course how could he tell her that he forged her signatures to get inside. Lucas uncovered her mouth when he felt his getting wet as soon as her tear crawled down on the cheek.
“Hey, hey, I’m so sorry that I made you worry but I swear I didn’t cheat on you.”
Lucas imminently knelt down and panicked while Nathalie sniffled and laughed in between, she couldn’t help but feel at ease hearing those words from him.
Moreover his sudden switch of the personality made her giggle, somehow she felt good seeing that he cared for their relationship.
None of them perhaps needed a verbal confession because their actions and bodies were already truthful to their love!
Lucas stood up and placed his one hand on the wall while lifting up her chin, his eyes showing utmost lovely expressions. Nathalie felt secure and safe as the strange sensations rising in her body made her realise that she could trust him.
The man leaned in while their breaths brushed each other’s skin and Nathalie closed her eyes with a racing heart, probably she too wanted to be taken down by him!
