Chapter 136 I frowned , Mr.
King , I have plans for lunch .
What about tonight then ? Im busy at night, too .
Then how about tomorrow or the day after tomorrow ? James didnt mind at all , looking as confident as ever .
I became displeased , Mr.
King , cant you tell that Im rejecting you ? James chuckled , Skylar , cant you feel that Im interested in you ? Youre really fun .
The scene of me potting all the balls in one go that day left a memorable taste in his mind .
My voice turned cold , There are plenty of entertaining people out there .
Im busy .
Mr.
King , go find someone else .
James sounded helpless , But Im right downstairs in your company now .
If you dont mind , I can come and wait for you every day .
I finally understood .
If I didnt go for this meal , James planned to disturb me every day .
My expression changed , Youre downstairs in our company ? As soon as I finished speaking , I walked out of the company building .
James spotted me immediately and waved to me with a smile .
However , as he waved a few times , he noticed Lukas standing not far behind me .
The smile on his face instantly faded , Skylar , I wanted to have lunch with you today .
Will you accept ? Even if its you having a meal with a friend , you wouldnt mind having one more , right ? I felt something was off about Jamess demeanor .
Just as I was about to speak , I heard Cole suddenly shout , Mr.
Strakovski ! I turned around , and sure enough , I saw Lukas standing next to me .
I frowned slightly , recalling Lukass warning to keep my distance from James .
I spoke , Sorry , Mr.
King , I really dont have time to have lunch with you .
Jamess voice carried a hint of coldness , So , does your friend mind having one more to tag along ? I furrowed my brows , Mr.
King , it has nothing to do with my friend .

James persisted , So , its because you dont want to .
I felt a bit awkward .
I didnt want to provoke James .
James was the kind of person who appeared easygoing but could be quite formidable .
I had no idea what James might do if things turned sour today .
14:02 O Escape From My Step Brothers Dangerous Obsession 83.3 % Chapter 136 I sighed , Mr.
King , please dont make it difficult for me .
This was my softened attitude .
Jamess tone was somewhat ambiguous , Im not making it difficult for you .
I just want to have lunch with you today .
Lets see who would dare to say anything .
After saying that , James hung up the phone and walked briskly toward me .
I had a splitting headache .
I was about to explain the situation to Cole and Ava when I saw Lukas coldly ask Cole , Director Hopkins , are you going for lunch ? Cole nodded , Yes , the three of us are going to have lunch .
Lukass tone was chilly , Then you dont mind if I join you , right ? Cole hesitated , This … Why , Director Hopkins , do you mind ? Lukas looked at him expressionlessly .
Cole quickly shook his head , Of course not .
The more , the merrier .
I closed my eyes helplessly .
Yes , the more , the merrier , especially when things escalate into a brawl .
I saw Lukas , but I didnt give that much of a thought .
Right now , I was in no mood to consider Victorias threat to use my fathers letter to blackmail me and involve Bella in Strakovski Jewelry .
And right now , I only wanted to keep James and Lukas from meeting .
Unfortunately , I hadnt figured out a solution yet , and James was already approaching .
He looked at me with a cheerful smile , completely ignoring Lukas behind me , Skylar , lets go .
What do you and your friends want to eat ? Ill treat you .
I couldnt adapt to Jamess familiarity .
Mr.
King , its all right .
We can pay for ourselves .
Then Ill just mooch a meal .
No problem , right ? James was completely at ease .
In the end , me , Ava , Cole , Lukas , and James , this peculiar group , ended up at the restaurant .
After ordering , everyone checked their phones .
Lukass phone rang , and he stood up to answer the call .
Martins voice tensed up at the end of the line .
Mr.
Strakovski , I know the reason why Natalia didnt tell the truth .
Her father is seriously ill and needs money for treatment .
Last week , she received a one million dollar transfer into her account , and the person who sent the money is likely the real mastermind behind all this .
He said .
Can you find out who the sender of the transfer is ? Lukas asked coldly .
Were still investigating .
The money was transferred from a Swiss bank to Natalia , and the sender has covered their tracks quite well .
Its not going to be easy , Martins replied .
Even if its not easy , you must dig it out for me , Lukass voice was as cold as ice .
Fecopo From My Ston Brothers Dangerous Obsession 83.5 % Chapter 136 After hanging up the phone , Lukas turned around and saw James a few steps away leaning against the wall , seemingly smiling but not quite , Lukas frowned in disgust , ignored him , and walked past .
However , James suddenly grabbed his arm , Mr.
Strakovski , even if Skylar is an employee in your company , you should keep your distance from her .
Lukas stopped and looked at James , Let go .
James released his grip with disdain and even patted his hand , I dont want to touch you either .
Lukas snorted coldly , James , its you who should keep your distance from her .
After saying that , Lukas continued walking .
After Lukas left , I noticed that shortly after , James also left .
Worried that the two might get into a fight , I stood up and intended to check on them .
However , Lukas pushed the door open and came back in .
After a while , James also came back , and only then did I feel relieved .
As the food was served , I ate nervously , but James seemed oblivious to Lukass presence , continuously using chopsticks to pick food for me .
I felt uneasy , Mr.
King , please stop picking food for me .
I can eat on my own .
James grinned , Im just showing my concern for you .
Lukas looked over coldly , not saying a word .
At that moment , Cole suddenly spoke up , Luther Van Eimeren is returning to the country .
Lukas subconsciously looked up and glanced at Cole .
Hearing that name , my hand holding the chopsticks loosened , and the chopsticks fell to the ground with a loud clatter .
