Since Melody moved out, Lucas often stayed in his study until late before returning to their room. Without Melody, the room felt empty, and Lucas only cback briefly before bedtime. Every moment spent there reminded him of Melody's absence.

Knock, knock, knock! Lucas instinctively thought it was Melody, but then remembered she was staying in the dormitory. It was impossible for her to be at his study door, so he composed himself.

Thalia walked in with a smile, carrying the glass of milk. "Lucas, are you still busy tonight? I noticed you haven't eaten anything since you got home. Lynette askedto bring you this cup of milk." Lucas silently watched as she placed the milk in front of him. He was pondering when Melody started considering moving out. Would she still want to move out if he could turn back tto before Thalia cto his house? Seeing Lucas staring at her so intently, Thalia felt a bit shy, so she lowered her head. "Lucas, why are you looking atlike that? Is there something on my face?" Unable to derive any answer from his gaze, Lucas sighed helplessly and shook his head. "It's nothing. If there's nothing else, you can leave now. I need to work." However, Thalia was reluctant to leave. She looked around the spacious study and asked, "Lucas, do you always work in the study? Why haven't I seen you spend much tin the bedroom these days?" Lucas frowned, unsure why Thalia was trying to make small talk. He needed to focus on the documents in front of him and did not want to engage in conversation.

"I still have work to do. If you have nothing else, please leave and don't disturb me," he repeated curtly.

Thalia seemed oblivious to Lucas' desire for silence as she excitedly rushed to the bookshelf, picked up a book, and exclaimed, "I've been looking for this book for so long! I never expected you'd have it here, Lucas! Can I read this book here? Don't worry, I promise not to speak and disturb you." Since Thalia wanted to read in the study, Lucas could not bring himself to kick her out. He nodded reluctantly and returned his attention to the documents in front of him.

Ever since Lucas established a solid reputation in the business world, no company dared to challenge him recklessly. However, this particular document had been brought back because there were signs of malicious competition emerging.

While Lucas had not initially paid much attention to this company, their recent activities had escalated. Thus, he had no choice but to take it seriously and had Edmund investigate the matter further.

Lucas mulled over the document, realizing the company also originated from Molomia. He could not fathom who might be behind the continuous targeting of his company. After all, if the perpetrator was from New Capital City, they should have known Lucas' influence in the country. Challenging him would only bring disaster.

As Lucas furrowed his brow in contemplation, he heard Thalia's coquettish voice again. "Lueas, the mik coolingooagain is coating down. It's best to drink it while it's still warm. Lynette toldto make sure you drink it before it gets cold because of your stomach issues."

Lucas suddenly remembered Thalia's presence in his study and, after finishing the milk, promptly asked her to leave. "If you want to read them If you want book, you can take it to your room. But please, not here." Thalia's eyes flickered briefly after Lucas drank the milk, but this time, she did not refuse his request. She picked up the cup hurriedly and even left the book she wanted to read behind on the sofa. X
