“I’m not up to anything bad, just trust me,” Luca said. “I want an outfit like the ones Ms. Louise used to wear – stunning and sexy, always swaying around Mr. Abel.”
“Stunning and sexy, always swaying around Mr. Abel?” Kendra repeated, mulling it over.
Emmeline had plenty of clothes like that, all bought for her by Abel. But there was one particular wine-red, diamond-encrusted fishtail dress that made her look absolutely enchanting.
Even Kendra herself couldn’t help but be amazed every time she saw Emmeline in that dress. With her beauty and that outfit, Abel’s gaze was always full of doting affection as he chased after her.
He never let her out of his sight, not even for a second.
“I know which one,” Kendra said.
Luca’s face lit up.
Just then, his phone rang – the CEO’s office line.
“Damn it,” Luca groaned. “Kendra, please hurry up. Mr. Abel can’t find me.”
“Got it, got it,” Kendra said, holding Quincy in one hand and rummaging through a hundred outfits with the other to find the wine-red fishtail dress.
Luca quickly answered the call.
“Luca, are you not in the company?” Abel’s voice was icy.
“Mr. Abel,” Luca hesitated. “Uh, yeah.”
“‘Yeah’? What does that mean?” Abel furrowed his brows. “You’re not in the company, where did you go?”
“I…” Luca thought for a moment and then had a sudden inspiration. “I just really missed Sam, so I came to see her.”
Abel was taken aback. “Is that so?”
He didn’t think Luca had time for romance, considering how he followed him around all day.
Although he himself didn’t have a woman he liked, he couldn’t deny Luca’s right to pursue one.
But leaving without taking time off and causing a disturbance among the bodyguards was not a good influence.
“Well, then,” Abel said. “Just come back soon.”
“Got it, got it,” Luca replied. “I’m almost done, I’ll be back soon.”
“Okay.” Abel hung up the phone.
Emmeline heard Luca’s voice clearly on the other end of the phone.
This guy, did he go after Sam?
He’s got some nerve, doesn’t he?
Emmeline quickly sent a discreet message to Sam.
“Did Luca come to see you?”
