“Molly, I think that person was him,” said Mavis as she was about to walk out.
Molly tugged on her hand and said with a frown, “Did you mistake him for someone else? How could there be such a coincidence? Plus, I think he was with a woman. Isn’t his wife abroad?”
“I would’ve mistaken anyone else but not him. Wait here.” Mavis withdrew her hand and ran out.
She spotted his figure not far away.
Mavis ran in front of them, and tears welled up in her eyes. Although the man in front of her was wearing a cap and mask, she could tell that it was Luke from his physique and voice.
“Is it you?” Her voice could not help but tremble.
Luca did not expect Mavis to recognize Luke from one single word.
Well, they did work together closely in their previous cooperations.
Luke frowned when he saw Mavis in front of him. It had been three years since he last saw her. At that time, she used her own company to snatch the opportunity to cooperate with Brilliant Architectural Design LLC. Now, she still had the guts to show up in front of him.
Luke did not want to cause unnecessary trouble, so he said in a hoarse voice, “You have the wrong person.”
“How could I be mistaken? Even if you fake your voice, I know it’s you…” Mavis looked at the two of them holding hands tightly. This woman was obviously not Bianca.
He really did encounter problems with Bianca, and had found a new love now.
What gave him the right to find someone new when she had been waiting for him here all this time? She did not even cross his mind when he found another woman.
She pointed at Luca and asked, “Who’s this?”
Luke intended to ignore her as it had always just been Mavis’s wishful thinking. He had never made any promise to her.
“Lu—” Mavis saw that he was about to leave with Luca and immediately blocked his path.
“I’ve missed you all these years,” she told him about her obsession with him without any regard for the bystanders looking at her.
Luca was getting anxious as Mavis had attracted the eyes of many passersby. If she called out Luke’s name, it would cause a commotion.
Ordinary people may not know who Luke was, but the people who frequented this mall were either senior white-collars or from a noble family, so they would know Luke’s name for sure.
She looked at Mavis and could tell that she was heartbroken from her eyes.
Now, Mavis knew for a fact that Luke and Bianca had broken up. However, Luke got together with her instead of Mavis, so she must feel wronged.
Having such feelings along with the long period of torment, there was no saying if she might do something stupid.
Luca was a little worried.
Luke did not say a word. He pulled Luca away as he wanted to leave.
Mavis watched as their shoulders brushed against hers, and she could not bear looking at their interlocked hands. She hissed at Luke. “I liked you for so many years, and now that you’re finally… You’re finally…”
She paused and added, “Why didn’t you give me a chance? Why did you choose someone else instead.”
Luke stopped in his steps, and Luca followed suit.
Luca sensed that Luke was annoyed.
She looked at the side of his face with concern.
“Miss, I don’t know you. You have the wrong person. Why are you butting in other people’s business?” Every single word Luke said stabbed Mavis in her heart like sharp blades.
“You’re not a thief. Why are you acting so guilty.” Luke noticed her small movements and teased her as the Mavis situation did not faze him at all.
“I was afraid that she would cause a scene and call out your name…” Luca said bluntly.
“I didn’t expect to meet her.” Luke frowned as he recalled her unusual behavior when he walked into the store. He deliberately asked, “But how did you know that she recognized me?”
Luca’s mind spun fast. Of course, she knew Mavis. She had gone through several conflicts with Luke because of that woman.
However, she was not Bianca, so she could not talk about the past.
Luca said, “They mentioned you when they were waiting for their items, so I found out that the woman has liked you for many years.”
“Really? How come I don’t know that?” Luke asked her.
Luca was speechless. He was pretty smart. How could he not know?
He had known since long ago. Otherwise, how could Mavis be transferred away from the headquarters of T Corporation which left her no choice but to leave her post?
Saying that he did not know was too unbelievable.
“I heard that it’s been ten years. I even heard from her best friend that she still thinks about you all the time. I didn’t want to be treated as an onlooker, so I was going to leave, but I didn’t expect you to come in at that moment,” said Luca.
“She used to be a senior executive at T Corporation. If she had stuck to her duties as a senior executive, perhaps she would be in the same position as Jason by now. Too bad she had other ideas, and I could no longer tolerate it,” said Luke.
There were too many people trying to make a move on him. He could not cut everyone off.
However, the woman he loved the most would be jealous when other women hit on him, so he would not allow such a thing to happen.
When Mavis volunteered to leave, he did not object. He happily agreed, but he did not expect that after all these years, she could still get herself into trouble.
