Chapter 242 – My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel

After watching the news, Eric reached out his hand to turn off the TV.

He was not satisfied with the way Wynter handled the matter; she simply announced her retreat and had no intention whatsoever to apologize to Emma…

Emma saw through to her husband’s anger. Seeing he was about to call Luke, she reached out her hand and stopped him, “That’s enough. For a proud person like Wynter, destroying her career is already worse than killing her…moreover, what’s the point of forcing her to apologize?”

“Don’t waste your energy on people like that. Eric…you need some rest.”

Eric turned his head and looked at Emma and noticed her patting the spot beside her; he couldn’t possibly refuse. So, he strolled over, sat down and wr*pped her in his embrace, “My heart aches for you…”

Emma took the opportunity to massage Eric’s shoulder and noticed his muscles were tense, “Look, you’ve been working too hard. Even your body is trying to remind you to get some rest.”

Eric did not say another word. As he hugged Emma, he slowly lowered his body, p**ssed his l*ps against her forehead and closed his eyes.

“I already possess the most powerful manager. So…people like Wynter doesn’t exist in my eyes. Stop wasting your precious time on people like that.”

“OK!” Eric nodded with his eyes closed.

…

During Emma’s period of recovery, Lisa treated it as a long holiday. With Eric taking care of Emma’s every need, there was nothing left for Lisa to worry about.

Overcome with boredom, Lisa headed over to Kaleidoscope. She wanted to find Luke to help her pass time.

However, just as she reached the doorway of Luke’s office, she could just make out the sound of his voice yelling at a subordinate…

Lisa leaned against the door frame without entering. Finally, Luke’s secretary ran out crying. Lisa shook her head, pushed open the door and said to Luke, “That’s not the right way to train people. You should be gentle towards girls, how could you make her cry?”

Luke closed the document in front of him; he was obviously still angry.

This was the first time Lisa witnessed Luke’s anger. As she watched him trying to contain his anger and his ears burning red, she couldn’t help but find him adorable!

“Tell your big sister how many people you’ve made cry. Have there been at least 10?”

Luke lifted his head and looked at Lisa; it looked like he was containing a smile. As he looked at Lisa, he could feel his heart flutter, “You…why are you looking at me like that?”

“At least I’ve never made you cry before…”

After hearing this, Lisa stood stunned for a moment before she realized she had almost misinterpreted his words as her heart raced. Because, with his EQ, there was no way his words would contain a deeper meaning. It seemed, he was simply trying to say she wasn’t like a woman.

Lisa let out a gentle laugh. She felt a bit silly as she mumbled, “I almost believed it.”

“What was that?”

Lisa lifted her head and smiled at Luke, “It’s because your big sister has a strong heart! Now, why don’t you tell me why you were angry at your secretary.”

“I don’t like it when people casually enter my home. I asked her to retrieve some documents from my place and she cleaned up my bedroom while she was there,” Luke explained as he looked down at his documents. As he worked, he had a serious exp**ssion on his face.

As soon as Lisa heard his explanation…

…her heart once again started racing…

…because she had been to Luke’s home and had even stayed a night there. However, Luke never said anything.

“Honestly, your home is quite messy sometimes…” Lisa responded awkwardly. She then said something she couldn’t believe she would say, “Since I have a few days free, why don’t I go help you clean up a bit?”

After speaking, Lisa was tempted to bite her own t***ue off. Luke’s head remained buried in his work as the room fell into a few minutes of silence. Suddenly, Luke lifted his head and handed her a set of keys, “OK…”

Lisa’s face flushed red…

She wasn’t sure if Luke was thinking the same thing as her. If not, she would need to make the distinction soon. If they got to a point where they couldn’t even be friends, what would she do?

So, Lisa grabbed the keys, and with the confidence that she was relatively special to Luke, she headed to his home.

On the surface, they were still an engaged couple…

…and at this moment, she was at Luke’s home helping him clean up. What was the meaning of all this?

Lisa tidied Luke’s bedroom and helped him wash his dirty clothes; even his socks and underwear…

As she stood in front of the washing machine, she furrowed her brows. She was worried if she didn’t quickly contain her heart she wouldn’t be able to control the feelings she had for Luke and fall deeper and deeper into this dangerously ambiguous situation.

Half an hour later, Luke began to drive home. As Eric was spending most of his time taking care of Emma, Luke’s workload increased dramatically.

After opening the door and seeing Lisa doing the laundry, he headed straight for his bedroom without hesitation and lay down on his bed.

Lisa looked at Luke awkwardly as he lay in bed. Did he not notice there was someone in his home?

Lisa assumed Luke would want to take a shower and get some rest, so she decided to greet him quickly and leave. However, just as Lisa opened her mouth, she heard Luke’s muffled voice coming from his pillow, “I haven’t eaten yet! I’m hungry…”

Lisa temporarily stopped her thoughts from wandering and willingly prepared dinner for Luke. However, by the time she finished, Luke had fallen asleep.

Lisa gently retrieved the keys from her pocket and placed it on the table. However, this little bit of noise woke Luke up.

He sat up and looked at Lisa, “Take the keys with you…”

Lisa: “…”

“During this time I’ll be really busy, I’m sure my home is going to look like a mess. I can’t trust other people.”

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Lisa’s face, “Hurry and eat dinner. You can go back to sleep after you eat.”

Luke took a few seconds to respond. He eventually got out of bed as he watched Lisa leave. After the sight of her figure disappeared behind the door, Luke leaned his back against the door and held onto his heart, “Why did I want her to stay longer?”

It seemed, tomorrow, not only would he need to create more dirty clothes, he would also have to break his taps and blow his fuse…

Luke made plans in his mind to keep Lisa at his place.

Of course, Luke wasn’t the only one thinking along this path. Although Lisa was a woman, when faced with the man she liked, it was normal for her to want to stay a little longer.

As she looked at the sparkling keys in her hand, Lisa suddenly felt there was still a lot of beauty worth grasping onto in this world…

Luke…Oh, Luke…

Why must you torture me like this?

Lisa pulled out her own keys and opened her car door. However, just as she boarded the car, she received a phone call from Luke, “Umm…I have a document that I can’t find. While you were cleaning the room, where did you place it? It’s really important. It’s in a blue folder!”

“It’s on the shelves; third row, second drawer.”

“It’s not there. Come back and help me find it…”
