You never know who might be listening ! I remained stoic , mindlessly doodled on the design draft with my pen .
I was well aware that no matter who you were , someone somewhere would talk behind your back .
However , they spoke of Director Hopkins , whom I was curious to meet .
It was said that he was the Head of Design and a highly capable individual Alas , he had gone on a business trip these past few days ! Third POV On the top floor , in Mr Strakovskis office , Lukas phone buzzed , displaying the name Emily Scholl on the screen .
He hesitated momentarily before answering the call .
What do you mean by all this , Lukas ? Emily began to reprimand as soon as s she spoke … Lukas impatience flicked in his eyes .
Whats the matter ? Youve never defended me like this before .
Emilys tone grew teary as she replied .
Are you really interested in her ? Learning about the situation in the United States from Olivias call had sent her into a whirlwind of emotions .
She hadnt anticipated such drastic changes in just a few days since she left The i internet media wasnt as advanced back then , frowning , Lukas responded .
But can she even compare to me ? I was your girlfriend for six years , while shes just a woman with a marriage certificate ! Defiantly , Emily raised her voice .
Lukas expression turned cold .
At least she has that marriage certificate .
Unlike you ! Emilys eyes filled with tears as she cried out to Lukas , I loved you so much .
How could you treat me like this ? You were the one who wanted us to get married , but you were also the one who stood me up and the one who wanted to leave Nobody forced you to do that , Emily .
Lukas maintained a severe expression .
you didnt love me ! I wanted to show you that you cared , but it seemed like you didnt ! Dont you feel it ? I did it because I felt like you Emily was crying Lukass voice was cold , So , you think by standing me up time after time , you can prove whether I love you or not ? Your behavior is Chapter 67 quite childish .
Panicking .
Emily sensed that she was losing Lukas , slapping further away from him .
She desperately wanted to regain control of the situation .
The pursuit of her career and proving Lukas love suddenly seemed inconsequential All she wanted was to be by his side again .
Listen .
Im coming back to the United States now .
Can you please get a divorce from that woman ? No one in our families knows about your marriage .
If you do this , we can act like none of this ever happened .
Is that okay ? Thats just wishful thinking on your part , he stated firmly.
It was true that only Emily and the Lopez family were aware of his marriage to Skylar .
Each me Emily stood him up , the had someone secretly monitor him outside the Civil Affairs Bureau , and Lukas was well aware of it .
The rest of his family and the Scholl family believed Emily had gone abroad .
They were oblivious to his marriage to someone else .
Emily felt herself on the brink of a breakdown , and she hysterically questioned , Lokas , have you truly fallen for that woman His expression darkened , and Lukas abruptly hung up the phone However , lus phone rang again before he could even process what had just transpired .
Feeling exasperated , Lukas answered , not bothering to check the caller ID .
Are you done yet ? The person on the phone paused briefly before playfully asking .
Whats got you all worked up ? You seem really irritahler Lukas glanced at his phones screen and immediately recognized the incoming call as Elias Schmidrs Lukas and Elias were good buddies .
The two had formed a tight knut bond while studying abroad together , and their friendship ) only grown stronger upon returning to the United States .
Rubbing his forehead , Lukas replied in a muffled voice .
Nothings wrong ! Respecting his friends privacy .
Elias didnt push further , suggesting instead , We havent seen each other for several days .
How about meeting at our usual place tonight for a drink ? What do you think ? Lukas considered the offer and eventually agreed .
See you tonight ! .
Hung up the phone , Lukas stared at the computer screen .
His face darkened as he found himself fixated on Emilys desperate question about whether he had fallen for that woman What does it mean to like someone truly ? Lukas never allowed others to figure out his preferences easily .
In the past , he had been a smoker , but he eventually managed to quit the habit He knew that when it came to his fondness for something , he had the strength to let it go As a result , there was nothing in the world that he couldnt abandon Although he had married Skylar , it was more a result of going with the flow , nothing more Lost in his thoughts , Martins knocked on the door and entered , informing Lukas , Mr Strakovski , Miss Elena Schmidt is here .
Shes accompanied by Gerald and says shes here to apologize .
