It was one day after that, one more day left before they go over to the Hamilton group to hand in the presentation. It was nighttime, Lucy just got back from the office. She was working, all the papers scattered on the glass table.
Robin was in the kitchen, he was making dinner. It was then Lucy called,'' Can you bring something for me to eat? I was not able to eat lunch during the afternoon.''
'' Coming right up,'' he replied from the kitchen. After his mother's death anniversary had passed away he was starting to act normal around her. He had pasta in his hands. He brought the plate in his hands and looked over at her work.
Her gaze was on the work in front of her. She was not able to notice him also. He placed it on the table after brushing away some of the papers. '' Food, pasta with seashells.''
'' Ah, thank you.'' But she was back to work again. Robin was tired of this. '' Finish food before starting work again. You seem to b
Zoe took a deep breath and looked back at the voice. It was Chelsa. '' What are you doing here?'' she asked him again. '' I am....here for my phone..'' Zoe replied taking out his phone. '' Hm, what a coincidence me too. It has to be in my desk,'' she walked over to her desk.Her phone was on the table. She picked it up. '' Thank god, I managed to put the file on the desk of this table. No, I only hope no one manages to see this,'' Zoe thought as he wiped off the sweat on his forehead with his handkerchief.Chelsa noticed something when she went to take her phone. '' Your desk seems to be in worse condition than mine. You should clean it before you go,'' Chelsa advised him. '' As if someone had come here to steal something.''The handkerchief in Zoe's hands slipped past his hand hearing that. '' Oh, it fell,'' she was about to pick it up but he did it before she did. She noticed that he was sweating a lot.She saw that the ac was st
It was the next morning, Lucy heard the alarm ringing for hours. When she tried to stop it she saw it was reading nine-thirty. Just seeing that made her sit back in surprise. She looked over at Robin who was sleeping yet now.She went to call him, '' Wake up. We are late.'' She was a crying river not being able to understand what to do just now. Robin woke up. '' Why are you shouting early in the morning?'' he asked with a yawn.'' It's not early it's over nine-thirty. We are late, get up,'' Lucy shouts out of panic. They managed to get ready. By then her team members had also arrived. Zoe was feeling nervous about what Lucy might say to him.But what he saw ever since he came to her house as she's late and getting ready. '' Hurry up, it's going to be ten soon,'' Chelsa said to Lucy. '' Coming,'' Lucy replied from her room.'' Where's the file?'' she thought then spotted it on the desk. She took it and went out. Robin was there wit
While Lucy and her team were talking someone interrupted them. It was one man, with grey hair and a dark green suit. '' Nice to meet you, Miss,'' hearing his all of their attention turned to him. '' Nice to meet you,'' Lucy greeted with a smile. '' I am Moore, what about you?'. ''I am Lucy Campbell and they are my team members who worked with me during the presentation. This is Chelsa, Nick, and Zoe.'' Mr.Moore was watching them with playful eyes. '' Campbells are running the business quite well these days or so I heard, is this because of Mr.Campbell? I heard he's going to retire and someone else is going to take his place. Is this you who will be taking his place?'' he turned to Lucy. '' Well, I..''. '' What are you saying? Lucy is the least favored child in the family, why would she be taking over the family business? We are here to do that,'' someone snorted interrupting them. It was Olivia. She had mischievous eyes. '' Who
After hearing her words one woman steps forward and says,'' You are right. I think we should applause for her.'' She started clapping for Lucy. Like that everyone there started clapping for her words.Olivia and others felt embarrassed by this. The sounds of applause were echoing in Lucy's ears. Robin himself was moved by her words. He could not believe what Lucy thought or felt about him all this while. He feels proud of himself to be able to call himself her husband.Zoe felt angry at himself that he had to betray such a good person. '' Let's get out of here,'' Gray advised his other siblings. '' You will remember this Lucy. All the praise that you are getting now. I will make sure to pay you in the same humiliation that you deserve. Don't become too cocky of this. You will be in tears after this.''After that thirty minutes pass by. Zoe was able to see that Gray was looking impatient. He kept looking at his watch. In a while the young
Zoe was able to do everything and he could not meet the eyes of others. He tried to escape from there so he left the hall. '' But I am telling the truth that it's mine please listen to me,'' Lucy pleads with tears in her eyes.'' Shut up Lucy, how can you tell a like this? Do you know that it belongs to me then why are you giving it false claims? I can't understand how your mind works. It's mine that's why there's my name on it. Back off,'' Gray snarled at her.'' No, I won't that belongs to me, Chelsa and we have worked hard for this. You are lying,'' Lucy shouts back. '' Look, Lucy, no one's going to believe you here. There's my name and that file is the winner that's why you are doing this I know. But your cheap tricks are not going to work here so go away somewhere else,'' Gray shouts.'' Lucy, why are you trying to make yourself the winner when you are not? This is not going to work here,'' Olivia retorted. '' Yes, don't steal away brother
''The operation is a success, she's all fine now,'' said the doctor assuring Zoe. He had been waiting outside the operation theatre all morning to hear that. '' Thank you, doctor, I can't thank you enough,'' Zoe said as tears were falling down his eyes. '' When Will I be able to see her?''. '' In the afternoon, she can speak to you.'' Zoe waited till the afternoon to visit his sister. When he was allowed to go inside he went and sat near her bed. '' Brother, are you here?'' Mary called in a low voice. '' Yes, I am here don't worry,'' said Zoe gripping hold of her hand. '' I am, alive,'' she said staring at his face. '' They said I am not going to survive the surgery.'' Zoe's eyes widened to hear that. '' You knew about it?'' he asked. '' Yes, when they talked I used to listen to them. They thought that I was sleeping that's not the matter at all. I am alive, I can't be
It was two days later after that. Today's the day Olivia had invited Lucy and Robin. Lucy had asked her mother and father to come too, but they don't want to meet the members of the main family.As a result, Robin and Lucy had dressed up to go there. The sound of a car horn could be heard from outside. '' Let's go,'' Lucy said. Robin carried the gift box along with him.The car was from the main family, sent by Olivia. They went inside and started going. It took them more than one hour to reach there. The Benett family is quite rich. Their mansion is just like the mansion of the Campbell family.Robin and Lucy get of the car when they reach the big gate. They were greeted by the servants there. Robin smiled at Lucy. When they reached the entrance they saw the crowd of guests overflowing the whole mansion.All of them were noble gentlemen and rich ladies. Most of them were wearing rich clothes and accessories. '' Where's your sister
As the music started playing everyone was dancing. Robin asked out Lucy to dance also. This might be one of the rare occasions when they are alone together. Meanwhile, Hughes arrived when they were dancing.Lucy and Robin saw him. Hughes met up with Olivia when he was about to come downstairs all young maidens surrounded stopping him from leaving. As a result, Gray had to dance with them.'' Nice for a bachelor like him,'' Robin comments while dancing. Lucy took it casually, but when she was able to hint at the meaning her eyes were full of rage. '' What did you mean there?'' she asked Robin.'' What? That it's nice that's all.'' '' What nice? Do you want to be surrounded by girls like that too? Hughes is not married to it's alright for him, but you are not allowed to do that,'' Lucy grunted while dancing.Robin was examing her face. '' Is she mad?''. '' Why am I not allowed like him?'' he asked trying to test her patience. '' That's bec
