His Eagle Eyes on Me

"I didn't mean it that way. I do feel like doing chores from time to time. You don't know how delicious the meals that our family's chefs make are. Sometimes, I want to cook something myself, but I am too embarrassed. It's different here with you. I know you will definitely eat what I cook."

Lucas blushed awkwardly. "Have you finished tidying up?"

Ivy nodded.

"Take a rest for a while! I'll leave now," Lucas said. "It's still too early for dinner. When you get hungry later, we'll go eat."

"Sure. I'll call you later then."

"All right." Lucas got up and left.

Leaving the hotel, Lucas called Caspian to pick him up.

"You are leaving already? Didn't you two have a proper conversation?"

"We are done talking."

Caspian was excited. "Okay. I'm on my way to pick you up now. You better spill all the juicy details when we meet! I'm dying to know everything."Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Before long, Caspian arrived in his car.

Once Lucas entered the car, Caspian started talking incessantly. "Lucas, did she tell you about her family situation? Is her family super wealthy? Her family must be really influential if she was able to attend Hayden's wedding. She likes you so much. You should seize this opportunity! Even if she asks you to go to her country, you should go! I wouldn't refuse such a great offer if I were you!"

Lucas furrowed his brows. "How do you know what we talked about?"

Caspian suddenly slapped the steering wheel. "Damn! Did she really ask you to marry her?"

Lucas shook his head. "She wants me to go with her to Aryadelle."

Caspian glanced at Lucas. "Did you agree?"

"Focus on driving!"

Caspian nodded. "All right, all right! I'll drive! Just keep talking!"

"We'll talk back at the company. I'm worried you'll be too shocked and unable to drive properly."

"You're beating around the bush.

You're not usually like this. You're a grown man, so just say what's on your mind already! I guess you are a bit overwhelmed. Take your time to calm down. But once we're at the company, you have to tell me everything!"

Ten minutes later, the car was parked outside the company building.

After exiting the car, Caspian grabbed Lucas to prevent him from running away.

"Well? Tell me: just how wealthy is Ivy's family?"

Lucas regained his composure and said, "Elliot Foster is her father."

Caspian scowled. "Huh?"

"Hayden Tate is her elder brother," Lucas added.

"Huh?! Wait, wh-Seriously?! Oh my God! I feel like I'm going to have a heart attack!" Caspian placed a hand over his chest and panted heavily.

Lucas remained calm. "She's Irene. The nanny that used to work for my family."

"Damn! Didn't Irene die? How did she become Ivy?" Caspian rushed to catch up with Lucas and grabbed his arm. "It's no wonder she came looking for you. So she was that nanny, after all."

"Apparently, her adoptive

grandmother escaped to Taronia with her. She was the long-lost daughter of Elliot Foster. During the summer holidays three years ago, she went to Aryadelle, and there, she reunited with her family. Her family faked her death because they don't intend for her to return to Taronia."

Caspian nodded. "And now she's come all the way here to look for

you. How touching! Lucas, I'm

serious about this. Her family is one of the most powerful families in the

world: Why would you turn her down?"
