Chapter 198
Sitting in front of his desk, Lucas pondered quietly. Vincent walked up to Lucas, about to remind Lucas of a meeting he should attend later.
Vincent also read the news about Luna’s “pregnancy”. He didn’t know how the news affected Lucas’ mood. What if Lucas was angry and decided to take it out on him? That would be a disaster.
Before Vincent could decide what to say, Lucas had already looked up at him.
Vincent paused for a moment and turned to Lucas with a grim face. He froze. “Mr. Thomas…”
Lucas only glanced at Vincent. “I’m going to Thomas’ villa.”
“But you have a meeting about the new project to attend later.”
However, Lucas ignored what Vincent said and left without turning back. Vincent followed Lucas for a few steps, but finally stopped after recalling the look on Lucas’ face.
Well, Vincent couldn’t stop his boss, could he?
In the Thomas villa.
Justin was listening to Dwayne talking about the netizens’ discussion. Dwayne said that the netizens all believed Jessica lived like a slut.
Justin was very satisfied. He didn’t expect that the Cheek sisters were of some use after all.
“It seems that we’ll embrace a happy ending soon.”
Justin raised his head and looked at the blue sky outside the window. He narrowed his eyes and smiled.
Dwayne glanced at Justin and continued, “Another news was exposed this morning. It’s about Luna and Lucas.”
“What?” Justin froze. His eyes darkened and he looked at Dwayne.
“Luna was snapped at OBGYN. The man next to her looks like Lucas. The netizens think that Luna is pregnant and Lucas will marry her.”.
“Bullshit!” Justin’s good mood was ruined. He slammed the table heavily.
As the two were talking, they heard a screeching sound from downstairs.
Justin frowned. “Who is back?”
Dwayne walked to the balcony and saw Lucas getting out of the car. His face changed slightly as he went back to tell Justin, “Mr. Thomas, Lucas is back.”
With that, Justin’s face turned even gloomier.
Justin knew that Lucas was no fool like Luna and Trissy.
But Justin didn’t do anything.
What could Lucas accuse him of?
All Justin did was to have people gossip.
Lucas went straight to the study on the third floor. When he passed the second floor, Rebecca was just
about to head out.
Rebecca saw Lucas and wanted to ask him if Luna was indeed pregnant.
However, Lucas went upstairs right after Rebecca called out to him.
Justin had already asked Dwayne to open the door and had been waiting for Lucas to come up. As soon as Lucas entered, Dwayne tactfully saw himself out.
In the study, Justin was sitting on the sofa inside.
“I’ve already seen you from the balcony when you were back. So you are not so occupied at work these days, right? Have a seat.”
After saying that, Justin looked up at Lucas, who had no intention of sitting down. “What? Is that how you are going to talk to your grandfather?”
Lucas’ eyes flickered, but he still sat in front of Justin. “No, my schedule is still tight.”
Lucas first answered Justin’s question and then said, “So, I hope you won’t cause me any more trou ble.”
“What do you mean?”
When Justin heard this, his face instantly turned grim.
Lucas looked at Justin with a deadpan face. “I’ve already asked Vincent to investigate Jessica’s scan dal online.”
“Do it if that’s what you want, but why are you talking to me like this? What? Do you think I’m the one behind it?” Justin glanced at Lucas coldly.
“If you are behind it, grandpa, I won’t be able to trace it back to you.”
“Damn!” Justin was instantly enraged.
“Why would I do that? What good would that do me?”
“Then why did you give Luna and Trissy money?” Lucas looked at Justin, his face unchanged.
“Because I want them to leave LA. Otherwise, how could you remarry Jessica?” Justin looked at Lucas with a despising look.
Lucas looked at Justin expressionlessly. “Do you think you are helping?”
Justin snorted in anger. He raised his hand and slammed the book in his hand on the desk. “You have no evidence! How could you just blame me for the rumors? Lucas, who do you think you are?”
