Chapter 494

Lucas stiffened slightly, turned around to look at the source of the voice, and saw Corinne slipping through the

crowd of onlookers from behind.

She walked up naturally to Lucas and asked, “Is there anything I can help you with, Mister

Lucas?”

Cole, Anya, and Rosie were all shocked by what happened. They were dumbstruck as to why.

Corinne was outside.

Lucas looked at her intently and asked, “Where did you go?”

Corinne answered calmly, “I didn’t go anywhere. I was waiting downstairs for you to come back, but when I saw a

lot of people running upstairs, I thought that maybe something serious happened. I followed everyone up to see

what was happening. I heard you calling my name as soon as I came up, so I can’t help but feel curious as to why

you’d look for me here.”

Lucas was speechless. ‘How am I supposed to answer her? Do I tell her that I thought she was fooling around with

another man?”

Rosie did not believe Corinne one bit, so she came forward to cast doubt on the latter’s

statement.

“Don’t act stupid, Corinne. I just saw you enter this room with Cole! You must’ve escaped in the chaos, and now,

you’re trying to pretend as if you just came from downstairs!”

Corinne looked at Rosie inexplicably, as if she could not understand what the woman was saying. “Who’s Cole?”

Rosie glared at the exquisite makeup on Corinne’s face as said, “Are you still going to play dumb?”

Corinne frowned. She was speechless at Rosie’s remark and aggrieved by the accusation.

“I have no beef with you, Miss Rosie. Why do you need to slander me all the time? Are you bearing a grudge against

me because you weren’t able to accompany Mister Lucas as his female companion today?”

She then turned around to look at Lucas. “Mister Lucas, perhaps next time you shouldn’t let at secretary like me

accompany you to attend theee non-work settings. I’ll become an easy target for those who have a crush on you,

and they’ll see me as their rival. This’ll only cause unnecessary trouble for the both of us.”

Rosie’s face soured at once and she explained hurriedly, “Don’t listen to her nonsense, Lucas! I’m not like that. I’m

certain I saw Corinne and Cole enter the room earlier!”

Lucas had an irritated expression as he glanced at the noisy, troublemaking woman. He knew that she liked him,

and he only gave her a bit of courtesy because she was Anya’s best friend.

However, she had caused him no shortage of trouble during the past few years.

Everything that happened then probably stemmed from Rosie’s jealousy.

Corinne looked around at the crowd and asked, “Which one of you is Mister Cole?”

Cole was in a bit of a daze at that moment and he stood up in confusion, “Ahem, I am!”

Corinne smiled at him, “Hello, Mister Cole. I don’t know you, so I’m curious if you know me?”

Her question stunned him for a second, and he realized that he could never admit to almost forcing himself on

Lucas’s secretary.

He shook his head immediately and said, “I don’t! Who are you? I don’t remember having met you before!”

“That’s right. We probably haven’t met each other before,” Corinne said to him before turning to Rosie. “As you can

see, Miss Rosie, he and I don’t know each other at all.”

Cole’s attitude changed from having a guilty conscience to that of someone who had

conviction in his belief.

He yelled angrily, “Yeah! We don’t know each othexo.com fast updater! Lucas, I’m just a little tired after

drinking some wine, so I came up here to take a bath and get some rest. I just turned on the faucet when

knocked on the door and left me feeling all confused!”

you

Following that false alarm, Lucas felt a little ashamed that he had doubted Corinne but showed little courtesy to the

kind of scum that Cole was.

“You’re not fit to freshen up and rest here. Put on your clothes and go back home. You can do whatever you like

there!”

Cole apologized with a flattering smile, “Hey now, aren’t we cousins? What’s wrong with me taking a bath here? You

can’t be that impolite to me, right!”

The corners of Lucas’s lips twitched coldly as he asked, “Are you going home by yourself or should I get someone to

send you home?”

“I… I’ll go home on my own! I’ll leave, okay, I’m leaving!” Cole said after seeing that Lucas was already prepared to

instruct several men to deal with him. He had no interest in causing trouble for himself, so he buttoned his clothes

in a hurry, picked up his jacket from the

ground, and left right away.

Once the excitement died down, the crowd at the door gradually dispersed.
