It'll Come Naturally novel Chapter 1507

The bar was a place for people to vent their emotions in every city. Luke wouldn't go out and drink with his co-workers. So this was the first time that he drank with them.

"Mr. Luo, you seem kinda down." People in the security department rarely hung out together, so everyone was in good spirits, except Luke. He sat drinking alone on the other end. They all knew he was a cold fish, but he never behaved like this before.

"I'm fine. Just have fun, guys," Luke said, pouring himself another glass of wine. 'She seduced me first, and then she just ran away. What the hell? I'm no saint. A man can only take so much, ' Luke thought.

The thought of the bruises on her face made him even more depressed, so he looked up and finished his glass.

'She's an excellent scrapper. She grew up that way, and learned how to street fight. So if it wasn't a garden-variety thug, then who did that to her?' Luke thought quietly.

If you never fell in love with someone, you wouldn't know about the heartache. So in a situation like this, you'd be in some kind of never-ending emotional tug-of-war. The game would go on so tortuously long that there could be no winner.

Michelle paced back and forth in the living room. She thought Luke had gone out with Edward, but Maria just came back from his house, telling her the CEO had not gone out today. 'So who did Luke go out with? Why didn't he answer my calls? He's never been this late getting home before. This is too much!' she thought worriedly.

Michelle reached out to touch her red and swollen cheeks, and thought, 'I wouldn't have gotten into it with Erin if I'd known he'd get so pissed. It felt good to vent, but now I've made things worse.'

She was such an impulsive person that she made a mess of her relationships and life. To be honest, she was very insecure about her relationship with Luke now. If they kept ignoring each other like this, their marriage would definitely come to an end.

Michelle had always been decisive in everything else. However, she was very indecisive about her relationship with Luke.

A dazzling light derailed her train of thought. She looked up and ran out happily. 'It's his car!' Michelle thought, 'But where is he? Wouldn't he be driving?'

"I am sorry, Mrs. Luo. Mr. Luo got plastered, so I drove him home." Michelle knew this guy. She knew that Luke thought highly of this man, and that he would send this man to keep Edward safe whenever he was too busy. Luke had a lot of confidence in this person.

"It's okay. Thanks for getting him here safely." Michelle smiled sweetly. She used to be in a gang, and knew there was little difference between her and the bodyguards. They fought for different reasons, but it was essentially the same thing. Thus, she knew that the bond of brotherhood between them was very precious. In their profession, you'd never know what kind of danger you'd face. In situations like that, the spirit of teamwork trumped everything. So they had to understand and trust each other.

"Hey, no big deal. Want some help lugging him inside?" Because of Luke, he was quite respectful to her.

"It's okay. I got this." Michelle looked at Luke who was leaning back in the seat, eyes closed, and thought, 'as long as he stays like that, it should be easy to get him upstairs.'

"At least let me help you get him out of the car." The bodyguard spread his legs to get lower, and pulled Luke from the car. Michelle hurried over to grab him. A heavy, wine-like smell invaded her nostrils which made her crinkle her nose.
