Nia replied with "okay", feeling refreshed and excited about the whole day at work. She wished that time would pass quickly. When it was time to leave, she rushed to tell Lucia that she was going on a date. Lucia guessed that. Even if she had some work needing her help, she did not mention but let her go.
Because Nia was off duty, Lucia had to file documents on her own. After half an hour, her boyfriend couldn't wait to come to her.
"Why are you so late today?" Arthur asked Lucia as soon as he opened the office door. He appeared calm and collected as if this was his home.
Lucia knew Arthur wouldn't have the patience to wait down there until he came and said, "Nia went home first, so I'm going to sort some stuff out myself."
"Did the assistant leave work before the boss?" said Arthur, frowning slightly.
"Nia has been in a relationship recently. It's understandable that she's in a hurry to get off work and go on a date. I can't just drag her along and make her stay single, can I?" Lucia smiled nonchalantly and said so. As soon as she finished hew words, Arthur hugged her from behind. Lucia turned to look at him, and saw an exaggerated look of grief in his eyes.
"So you'd rather keep me waiting than spoil a date?" Arthur asked Lucia "pitifully".
Lucia could not help but smile. Now Arthur really liked Alaskan malamute that large dog, clearly looked majestic, but acted like a spoiled child.
Arthur went on with his exaggerated performance. This position was just close enough to the side of Lucia's face, so he didn't miss her smile. Lucia's smile was perfect. When smiling, the corners of the mouth will be slightly up a fascinating arc.
Holding Lucia, Arthur felt his heart filling up.
"Lucia, I love you." Only by saying it can he find an outlet for the love that almost overflowed his chest.
Lucia's heart palpitated. She turned to Arthur and asked, "Aren't you still complaining that I kept you waiting? Why did you suddenly confess..."
But she loved it...
More leaning into Arthur's arms, Lucia thought so.
"Because of your smile," Arthur said with a kiss on Lucia's lips.
"My smile?" Lucia arched her eyebrows and smiled brightly.
"Yes, My Lucia. You have the most beautiful smile in the world," said Arthur. His warm breath gently brushed against Lucia's neck, causing her to rub Arthur's chin lovingly. Her movements were like she was acting coquettishly.
"The person with the best smile is the Mona Lisa," said Lucia, with her cheeks blushing.
"No, it's you." Although Arthur was a straight man, when he met Lucia, he would be gentle with her. If he could, he would use the most beautiful words in the world to describe the woman in his arms. And it was not enough.
