Chapter 151: He Wanted Her Body And Her Heart
As she looked at Lucas, A asked, "Why did youe to see me all of a sudden? Did something
happen?"
"I''m just worried about you.You moved to another ce out of the blue, so I went to the rk family
vi to see if you were there.I''m aware that you wouldn''t want to go back there, but you''ll be with Brian,
won''t you?"
This was what worried him the most.
Besides, he could tell from Brian''s eyes that no matter what happened, the only man who could stand
at A''s side was Brian.
It could never be him.
A shook her head.
"Lucas, you don''t understand.There are some things that I have to do by myself."
"What are you nning to do? Are you getting back together with him?"
Was it because what he had done for her paled inparison to Brian''s efforts?
"Lucas, you misunderstand me.I don''t want anything to do with him.Didn''t you say that you''d trust me?"
A knew that Lucas might have some misunderstandings due to the fact that she was with Brian right
now.
But she still hoped that he could understand her.When she was with Brian, there was an indescribable
feeling in her heart.She couldn''t figure out what it was.
But now that she was an employee of the rk Group, everything was beyond her control.
He would know whatever A was thinking, so what she needed to do right now was to finish what she
must do as soon as possible, and then leave Brian.
Upon seeing her resolute determination, Lucas believed that she must have a n.
As long as she was fine, nothing else mattered.
Besides, it was better if she stayed with Brian for now.
If either Tatum or Haley found A, he wouldn''t be able to do anything to save her.
Just like what happened in the past, Tatum found out A’s whereabouts through Lucas.
After Tatum received the news, he took her abroad and imprisoned her in his vi.
Although she was given enough food, he still forcibly injected her with drugs without even telling
Lucas.Tatum had no ns of sending her back to Antawood from the start.
After he got what he needed from her, there was no way he would spare her life.
And even if he didn''t kill her, she would be doomed to rely on taking drugs for the rest of her life.It was
already nine in the evening when Lucas and A finished their dinner.
She insisted on going back to thepany in order to avoid running into Brian.
And so, Lucas drove her to thepany.
"A, give me the address of your new apartment.I''ll visit you whenever I''m free."
She wrote down her address on a piece of paper and gave it to him.
"HM Garden? It''s in the golden district of the city.Brian does treat you well."
Lucas put away the note, and added, "It''s gettingte.You promised me that you''re not going to stay up
late.Get some rest as soon as you get home, alright?"
How he wished he could stay by her side, but s! It was impossible.
Even if he cast aside his hatred and took her far away, he didn''t want to rob her of her realizing her
dreams.A nodded in response.
"Don''t worry, I will.I''ll take better care of myself from now on."
After saying that, she walked towards the office.
Lucas stood beside his car as he watched her walk away.
Once he saw her safely go inside, he got in his car and drove away.
When A entered the office, she smelled the putrid odor of smoke before she turned the light on.
With her hand still beside the door, she was deciding whether to turn the light on or not.
While she was hesitating, Brian flipped the switch.
"Oh, you''re back from your date? Why don''t youe inside?"
A entered the room.
"Mr.rk, why are you sitting in the dark?"
"I''ve been waiting for you."
N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
Brian knew that she would go back to thepany to avoid seeing him.
She would rather stay in the office than in the apartment.
The second she saw him, A regretted going back to thepany.
She shouldn''t have returned.She should''ve just gone to the apartment directly and made him wait all
night.
"I just left something in my office.I''m going home soon."
A went to her desk to grab a document.
But before she could make her way outside, Brian halted her.
"L, you should know what I want to ask."
He saw how differently she treated himpared to Lucas.
A shook her head, looking at his hand holding her wrist.
"Mr.rk, I honestly don''t know what to tell you.I have nothing about work to talk to you now.And my
personal life has nothing to do with you."
"Is official business the only thing we can talk about? We slept on the same bedst night, remember?"
Brian embraced her.He hated how intimate she was with Lucas.Even though A was enclosed in his
arms, she still felt so far from his grasp.
She looked at him dead in the eye, and asked, "What else do you want? Haven''t you had enough?"
Brian had kept her by his side, but no matter how hard he tried, she wouldn''t give her heart to him.
"It''s not enough! What I want is this!"
He reached out, clutching her chest.He wanted her body and her heart, both.
"Mr.rk, don''t be so greedy." A was still calm despite his sudden reaction.
He was overestimating himself.Why on earth would she give her heart to him again?
Two years ago, she suffered through so much pain.She even got wounded and almost died.
Falling in love with anyone again was probably difficult for her now.
Brian leaned closer to hear ear, and whispered, "Yes, I am greedy! Never have I failed to get what I
want, and you''re no exception."
A nestled in his arms.
"Let''s wait and see if you''re right." She evoked a charming smile.
"Anyway, I''ll head home first.I won''t disturb you anymore, Mr.rk."
She stood on tiptoe and gently kissed his cheek, leaving a light pink lip print, and then she left.
Brian watched as she walked out of the office.
How could he not understand that she was still avoiding him? If he hadn''t waited for her in her office,
she might''ve stayed here until midnight.
It was good that she went back.
He didn''t want her to copse again because of overworking.
Brian made himself busy in his office for almost an hour before he went back to the apartment.He
figured that A might''ve gone to bed at this time, but he was wrong.
She was still in the living room.
"Why haven''t you gone to bed? Were you waiting for me?" Brian dropped his briefcase, took off his
jacket and threw it on the sofa.
When he embraced A, she didn''t move away from him.She was too focused on the fashion
magazine in her hand.Brian took it away from her and said, "Why aren''t you responding?"
He hated it when people weren''t answering him.
A cast him a nce and asked, "Mr.rk, what do you want me to tell you? Do you want me to say
‘wee back’? You know that I don''t like to lie, right?"
"Okay, then tell me the truth," he replied with a chuckle.
"I don''t want to." A turned her gaze towards him.
All she had to do was to do her job well.
And as for everything else, she just let him do whatever he liked.Why did he have to force her?
