Chapter 1064 First Meeting


    Eve was willing to stay by Lauren''s side all the time, which of course made Lauren happy. However, due to other considerations, he was reluctant to see so.


    "Eve, you don''t have to help me with these things. I can do it myself," Lauren said with a wry smile as he saw Eve preparing to refill his cup of coffee.


    "No way," Eve nced at Lauren and her eyebrows showed a hint of coquetry, "I know that Stoffer and Dely usually take care of these things, but now they are helping my sister and Mr. Berry. I have to take responsibility for taking care of you."


    Lauren smiled evilly when he heard the words, reached out and grabbed Eve''s slender wrist, deliberately teasing her,


    "Stoffer will still help me make the bed tonight, can you?"


    As she heard this, Eve''s face instantly turned red and her eyes drifted towards the corner. Just as Lauren thought she would refuse, Eve gathered her courage and shouted,


    "I can do it too!"


    Laurenughed out loud in the next second, pulled Eve into his arms with a little force along the current posture, and said with a smile,


    "Is it really possible? I''m not exactly a gentleman."


    At this point, Eve''s face had turned into a rosy hue. She squirmed in Lauren''s embrace for a few moments before gradually calming down. A small, unembarrassed voice in her heart whispered... If it really was like this, there was nothing wrong with it...


    Sensing the change in Eve, Lauren looked down at her, only to see her drooping eyes, shy and timid. He really liked her appearance.


    As soon as he thought so, he can''t grasp the strength in his hand. If Eve hadn''t cried out in pain, Lauren would have hugged her even tighter.


    "Stop kidding around. Will you apany me to meet two friendster?"


    "Who?" Eve asked shyly, her voice as soft as a mosquito''s.


    "You''ll know soon." Lauren said with a mysterious smile.


    As the car stopped in front of the towering Webbex Group building, Eve was still unaware that Lauren had brought her to Lucia''spany!


    "Where are we?" Eve asked as she got out of the car. Eve looked around at the bustling pedestrians and still didn''t know that their destination was the building right in front of them.


    "Just follow me," Lauren smiled and took Eve''s hand, walking into the Webbex Group together.This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    This was Eve''s first timeing to such a solemn and dignifiedpany. Everyone passing by her was in a hurry, dressed in formal attire, discussing various things that Eve cannot understand. They all looked sharp and experienced.


    Lauren noticed the envy in Eve''s eyes and asked her softly, "What''s wrong? Are you envious of them?"


    "A little bit," Eve didn''t deny it.


    "Everyone has their own path in life. There''s no need to envy others. You should know that others are also envious of you," Laurenforted Eve and without notifying the front desk, they went straight to the private elevator reserved only for the CEO.


    In the elevator, Eve couldn''t help but ask curiously while tugging at Lauren''s clothes, "Who are we going to see exactly?"


    "Two friends," Lauren still didn''t give her an answer but there was a deeper smile in his eyes.


    Eve pouted and could only stand obediently next to Lauren. She felt out of ce with the surroundings but as long as she had Lauren by her side, she wasn''t afraid.


    When they arrived at the floor where the CEO''s office was located, Gracie stood up to greet them. "You must be Mr. Osade? Ms. Webb and Mr. Davies have been waiting for you."


    After speaking, she nced curiously at Eve not because she intended to pry into anything but because these two people looked somewhat... out of ce together.


    Lauren was handsome beyond measure with an imposing presence while this youngdy beside him looked delicate like a flower that couldn''t withstand wind or rain; their temperaments were vastly different. "Okay then please lead us there," this was also Lauren''s first timeing to Webbex Group so he politely let Gracie lead them. Noticing Gracie sizing her up earlier made Eve even more timid as she carefully clung onto his clothes following behind him and looking even more pitiful now.


    Gracie led them into Lucia''s office where Lucia greeted them with a smiling face, causing Eve to freeze instantly upon seeing her.


    "Oh my goodness! You brought your little flower too?" Lucia joked nonchntly with Arthur over tea when they saw Eve enter.


    As soon as Lucia finished speaking though, Eve quickly hid behind Lauren''s towering figure - who really did block off any possible view from anyone else- making Luciaugh helplessly before looking towards Arthur pitifully asking, "Am I really that scary?"


    Arthurughed silently before pinching Lucia''s cheek. Then he stood up walking towards Laurent, slightly tilting his body sideways and greeting Eve behind him, "Miss Davidson, hello! I''m Arthur. Lauren''s college ssmate. Nice meeting you."


    Arthur''s voice was low and maic, just like Lauren''s. Eve, who was originally timid, couldn''t help but look up when she heard his voice. When she saw Arthur''s smiling face, she froze.


    Eve was inexperienced and thought that Lauren was the most handsome man she could ever see. But now... the man in front of her surpassed Lauren in appearance and had softer features with a unique charm. He wasn''t always aggressive like Lauren or had a twisted sense of humor.


    To be honest, Arthur''s looks and temperament were more in line with Eve''s aesthetic as they had the same nationality.


    Little did Eve know that Arthur''s current gentleness towards her was only because she was someone dear to Lauren''s heart. If it were anyone else, Arthur would have shown endless coldness and indifference. When Lauren turned around to see Eve staring at Arthur nkly, his expression could only be described as stunning jealousy surged within him.


    He regretted bringing Eve to meet Arthur; he even blocked their line of sight from each other out of pettiness. Lucia on the sofa burst intoughter at this small-minded action while teasingly telling Arthur not to provoke him or he might bite himter!


    Arthur couldn''t help butugh too before patting Lauren''s arm saying, "Don''t be so petty. Come over here for some tea." After speaking, he returned back next to Lucia where they both sat close together with identical smiles on their faces filled with yful banter.
