Chapter 67: I want you to tell my family we are dating
She seriously suspected that Lucas had implanted a tracker on her.
Otherwise, how could he know that she was in Chicago?
Also, the perverted uncle actually said he was going to pick her up here.
Was he afraid she would run away?
Where could she run to?
She had indeed thought about running away from the villa district, escaping Lucas’s surveillance, but she had no money in her hands, not even her passport.
Where could she escape to?
Even if she runs to the ends of the earth, he would drag her back.
"Miss, when you go back, you must study well and become a useful person.
In this way, the late grandpa will also feel happy in heaven."
The butler helped her carry her luggage down from upstairs, looking at her reluctantly.
Beauty suddenly felt a bit sour, but she couldn’t shed any tears.
Especially in front of Lucas, she would not shed a single tear.
She couldn’t let him find out where it hurt her.
A person as scheming as him will undoubtedly threaten her in the future.
Indeed, a private plane is hundreds of times more comfortable than business class.
Lying on the soft chair was like falling into a giant marshmallow.
Lucas sat on the other side, holding a laptop, his majestic brow furrowed together, he looked rather unwell.
The others dare not utter a single word, each holding their breath, worried.
Beauty held a romance novel in her hand, engrossed in it, she laughed unwittingly, her other hand took a sip of freshly squeezed orange juice.
For a moment, all eyes were on her face, as if to tell her that her time was up.
The gaze was heavy, with a hint of sympathy.
A sharp ray of sight fell on her face and hands, Beauty seemingly sensed danger.
She gently opened her eyes, and then saw Lucas’s chillingly cold face.
"Um... I suddenly feel a bit sleepy, you guys continue working..."
Immediately putting down the novel in her hand, she faced death unflinchingly, closing her eyes and flashing her brilliant teeth fearlessly.
Lucas gave her a cold glance, then handed the notebook in his hand to his assistant before making a phone call.
He spoke fluently in a foreign language, as if a foreigner was standing in front of her.
Beauty admired him immensely in her heart.
If she could someday speak a foreign language as fluently as Lucas, she would definitely become an international design coach.
With this thought, she couldn’t help but wear a beautiful smile on her lips.
Her subtle movements did not escape Lucas’s keen eyes.
Even in the midst of a multimillion-dollar deal, his gaze would occasionally rest on her creamy white face, his eyes enigmatic.
Playing dead all the way!
Finally, the plane landed on the company’s rooftop.
Beauty leisurely opened her eyes.
Lucas’s figure had long since disappeared without a trace.
Indeed, private planes are fantastic, and indeed, being rich is fantastic!
Taking small, shuffling steps all the way, she felt like she was stepping on clouds, her body feeling fluffy soft.
At the elevator entrance, she ran into Lucas clad in a suit.
Despite the scorching weather, he was still impeccably dressed in a well-tailored suit, with a white shirt underneath paired with a deep blue tie.
"Come to the office with me later, we’ll discuss your birthday banquet.
I’ve told you before, I want to host the grandest birthday party for you in the entire City."
Beauty nodded like she was pounding garlic.
Anyway, she didn’t have any say in this, at most she would just cooperate with him.
In the office, the assistant brought two cups of iced coffee.
Sitting on the couch, Beauty felt as if she was on pins and needles, feeling constantly uncomfortable.
Especially with Lucas, this towering figure, sitting across from her.
"At this year’s birthday banquet, I plan on formally introducing you to my family, including my father, grandfather, and grandmother."
This was the first time that Lucas mentioned his family in front of her.
Beauty watched him intently, her lips slightly pursed as if she were a child carefully listening in class.
When Lucas finished, he slowly turned his cold eyes. His thin lips opened slightly.
" Marson’s family and other wealthy families are quite complicated, especially Emily, who you’ve probably met.
My father’s father who is my grandfather is also quite difficult to deal with, so be careful all the time."
"Are there people even more difficult than you?"
Beauty blurted out fearlessly, immediately covering her mouth, her face flushed in embarrassment.
Why did she have to speak such an honest truth!
The obvious darkening of Lucas’s eyes scared her into holding her breath.
After two seconds, he leaned in to look at her pale face, his words slowly spaced out: "Am I difficult to deal with?"
"No, no, no!
You’re easy to handle, very easy to handle..."
Without thinking, Beauty spit out these words, and after saying them, his face looked even worse.
Something about her sentence didn’t seem right, but in the heat of the moment, she was only focusing on staying alive, rather than analyzing her words.
All of a sudden, the couch sagged as Lucas took a seat next to her, his face cold as ice.
Beauty’s tiny face flushed crimson, and she was on the verge of tears.
How did she get herself involved with such an overbearing man!
She felt her jaw being forcefully pinned, rendering her motionless.
After two seconds, Lucas’s handsome face moved closer, coming almost close enough to touch her.
"Girl, we need to discuss something."
Discuss?
Since when did he start discussing things with her?
Beauty nodded her head like a lizard, when a man was under the eaves, she had no choice but to bow her head, he was the boss after all, what he says goes.
"You need to tell my grandpa we are dating, now that you’re of age, you can date."
... She gasped a chill breath, he just said his grandfather is harder to deal with than him, isn’t this just a suicide mission?
Does he really think she’s a fool?
Her chin started to hurt, she gulped down her saliva, shaking her head like a rattle drum, her eyes filled with despair.
If this were to get out she’d probably be a corpse left in the streets tomorrow, she isn’t such a fool!
"That’s an order, if you don’t comply, I guarantee you that no one at school will dare to be friends with you, when I say I’ll do, I’ll do it."
Beauty’s eyes nearly bulged out of her head.
If someone came in right now, seeing her face pale as a sheet, eyes wildly rolling, they’d probably think Lucas wants to strangle her.
She really wanted to stick this crime on him, but she also didn’t want to die!
"Didn’t you just say we were discussing?
Now I disagree..."
She was cornered, Beauty gritted her teeth, spitting out each word, a fine layer of sweat forming on her forehead.
In such a frigid office space, she was actually breaking into a sweat!
"It’s not up to you.
No matter whether we end up discussing, you must agree to this.
Also, you cannot let my grandpa see any flaws.
However, I can fulfill one of your requests."
"What request?"
Beauty’s head started to feel fuzzy due to a lack of oxygen.
Her thoughts felt like a tangled ball of yarn, clouding her mental clarity.
Still, she managed to muster the courage to ask with a flushed face.
