After the Fall A Leap into a Stranger's Arms novel Chapter 210

Lawrence pressed a gentle kiss to her forehead. “I missed you.”

Catherine looped her arms around his neck, her voice soft and a little shy. “I missed you too.”

He carried her over to the sofa and sat down, keeping her perched on his lap, his arms wrapped around her like she belonged there.

The closeness made Catherine’s cheeks warm. She tucked her face against his chest, mumbling, “How did you find time to come by?”

“I’m here with your dad. We went to Nexus Dynamics to talk about the acquisition.”

She sat up fast, worry flickering in her eyes. “So? Did it go through?”

Lawrence nodded. “Yeah, it went really well. Nexus Dynamics is giving your dad the best possible deal. The contract should be signed in three days.”

Catherine’s whole face lit up. So the boss of Nexus Dynamics hadn’t lied after all. He really wanted to buy her father’s company, and from the sound of it, he was even taking good care of them.

That meant Waldo could finally stop scheming against her dad’s company.

Lawrence brushed a stray lock of hair from her face, his thumb gliding gently along her cheek. “How do you want to celebrate tonight?”

She thought for a second, tilting her head. “How about I treat you to the fanciest restaurant in Cabinda?”

He smiled, his eyes twinkling. “Sounds good.”

Right then, her stomach rumbled loudly. Catherine blushed, covering her face. “I was so busy at lunch, I barely had time to eat.”
