Watching Michele in pain and suffering was hard for Lucas too. Although he had no feelings for her, they had grown up together. Seeing Michele caught in a whirlwind of emotions, he couldn't do anything about it, but at the same time, he blamed himself for not seeing Michele's feelings for him.
Lucas was quite slow when it came to feelings. If it wasn't for Yasmeen's persistent pursuit over the years, he wouldn't have had any feelings at all.
Falling in love was too troublesome and tiring.
Wouldn't it be better for them to be friends?
But the thought of being friends with Yasmeen repelled Lucas subconsciously.
Well, she had been silently planted in his heart like a seed, which was terrible.
But luckily, it was her!
Lucas was slightly distracted.
Michele noticed it too and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"Lucas, I hate you!"
With that, Michele ran off.
Lucas's brow furrowed. He sighed in his heart and quickly sent a message to Edison.
"Michelle got pissed off by me and ran away. You go find her and make sure nothing happens to her."
Edison froze slightly when he saw the message and then became a little angry.
"Lucas, you knew she was irritated and you let her run out? What were you thinking?"
"I don't like her, so I won't give her a shred of hope. Edison, the only way she'll give me up for good is if I break her heart, and you have a chance. I know your heart aches for her, so stay with her. It's okay for you to be my brother-in-law."
Seeing Lucas's words, Edison was shocked and blushed a little.
He had always thought that he had hidden his feelings for Michele well, but he had never thought that Lucas would be able to see it.
"Thanks, Lucas. You can hurt her as much as you want. I can't wait to see you being plucked from her heart."
Lucas suddenly frowned.
Edison was simply a little silly.
He put the phone down but was still a little worried.
Michele had come in her car. Would it be dangerous for her to drive in this mood?
Uncle Morty had been good to him over the years, and he really treated Michele like a sister.
Yasmeen came downstairs at some point. Looking at Lucas' worried look, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. But then she remembered how much Lucas trusted and defended her, and she was relieved.
In this emotional game with Michele, it was clear that she had won.
A woman who won must also have the grace and decency to do so.
She walked over and took Lucas's hand, then said softly, "If you're really worried, let's follow her behind."
"You're not angry?"
Lucas was a little taken aback.
Yasmeen was instantly happy.
Having Lucas say that was enough, wasn't it?
"Angry about what? Didn't you say you just think of her as your sister? And you'd be upset if she had an accident because of you, right? So I, as her future sister-in-law, will go with you!"
Looking at Yasmeen's mischievous look, Lucas couldn't help but smile.
"Then I might not be able to accompany you to buy clothes."
"What do you mean by accompanying me? Isn't it buying clothes for you? Besides, clothes can be bought anytime, but your sister won't have much contact with you once she gets married in the future. So as a brother, you'd better hurry up and go."
With that, Yasmeen took Lucas's hand and walked out the door.
Depression filled Michele's chest as she exited the door. She stepped on the accelerator and the car drove off as if it had flown.
Lucas frowned slightly when he heard Yasmeen say, "Sit tight."
Then she stepped on the accelerator and the car flew off too.
Lucas didn't react much, gave Yasmeen a casual glance, and said calmly, "Nice driving skills."
