Chapter 440


    Chapter 440 Anne hesitated slightly. When she walked out of thepany building after she got off


    work, she saw a familiar vehicle waiting there in the distance. Lucas got out of the car and did not seem


    to avoid anyone deliberately. He was standing beside the car, and he looked at her with a smile.


    Anne walked over. “Why are you here?”


    “I was just passing by.”


    Anne smiled.


    She doubted that, but she did not say anything.

    Anne sat in the co–pilot seat and buckled her seat belt. He handed her a box. “I went on a business trip


    two days ago, and I bought it because I thought it looked good.”


    Anne was not used to being given gifts. She felt ufortable for a while and said, “Don‘t give me gifts.


    I can‘t repay your help to me.” “Actually, you are already paying me back when you promised to eat


    together.” Lucas started the car, and the car drove into the traffic.


    Anne understood.


    Lucas still liked her.


    When the box was opened, there was a bracelet inside. It was exquisite and beautiful, and it made her


    eyes shine at first nce.


    “Do you like it?” Lucas asked.


    “It‘s very beautiful.” Anne smiled. “I like it. But don‘t buy it next time. I can‘t pay you back.” Lucas


    chuckled softly. “How about you invite me to dinner next time? It doesn‘t have to be expensive.”


    They chatted happily. Anne was a little worried after thinking of something. “Does your mother know


    about us? She already knows about my three children. I don‘t want you to have a conflict with your


    mother because of me.”


    “Don‘t worry. I‘ll deal with her.” Lucas saw Anne‘s uneasy expression and said, “I have quite a lot of


    patience to deal with my mother. My only problem is you.”


    Anne bit her lower lip and looked out the car window.


    When they got to the room, Nigel was already waiting. Anne saw Nigel and Lucas chatting and knew that


    it was not the first time they had met.


    Nigel was very fond of Lucas. He was a brilliant young man. At this meal, he just wanted to see how


    Lucas and Anne interacted with each other.


    “They were made for each other,‘ Nigel thought.


    During this period, Nigel did not say anything more to the two of them. He knew Lucas could take care of


    everything. Lucas should be the one to propose.


    It was not Nigel‘s job to do so anyway. After eating, Lucas sent Anne back.


    Sitting in the car, Lucas said, “Will there be another meal like this next time?”


    Anne pursed her lips and smiled.“Are you that insecure?” “Maybe.” Lucas chuckled. “Now, all we have to


    do is to wait for Mrs. Newman to consent.” “What about your dad?” “He listens to his wife.” Lucas paused


    and said, “I do so too.”


    Anne blushed and smiled, then seemed to remember something and asked, “What about the person you


    dated? Didn‘t you meet with her thest time?”
