Confused as he was suddenly pulled, Lucas turned around. The man froze for a moment when he saw the familiar face of Deasy."You..."For a few moments, Deasy was taken aback. She stared at the handsome man she had just called "darling" as if experiencing déjà vu.In her mind, Deasy was quite sure that the man she was looking at was the same guy she met a few days ago and invited for a one-night stand at her apartment.Oh my, he's the handsome prince I saw that night. So, I wasn't dreaming, right?"Are you...""Deasy... is this your new boyfriend for real?"Before Deasy could fully recover from her shock and finish her response, another man's voice interrupted and questioned at the same time.Daniel, Deasy's ex-boyfriend, looked equally surprised. He showed a mixture of bewilderment and doubt as he saw the man Deasy had just called and pulled to face them both."Y-yes," Deasy replied, nodding. Trying not to show her nervousness, she boldly and recklessly held the hand of the man she ha

"Pa... are you sure about introducing Lucas to all the staff and executives at Quantum Tech today?""What's wrong? Aren't you ready?"Before heading to the office, Lucas made a deliberate stop at his father's residence. Today, as instructed, he would be introduced for the first time as the new leader.According to the agreement of the company executives and commissioners, Lucas was chosen to replace Andreas Morales and take over the leadership of Quantum Tech, which was a subsidiary of the Dalton Group.Actually, as the youngest son and the most competent heir, Lucas was destined to be chosen as his father's successor sooner or later. Moreover, the leadership position at Quantum Tech had been vacant for the past year.However, Lucas did not expect it to happen so soon. It's not that he was unprepared. Lucas just thought that there were still many important tasks that he had not yet taken responsibility for or completed."It's not about being unprepared or unwilling. It's just that the

Lucas continued to scrutinize one by one the financial data that Deasy had just given him yesterday. Currently, at his home, there's Felix, his assistant, along with three members of the audit team who are busy helping him. They checked repeatedly while looking for loopholes in the suspected embezzlement of funds committed by some staff members who have been working at Quantum Tech for many years.Having been left unchecked for years, Lucas just found out that the missing company funds had reached tens of billions of rupiah. No wonder his father's company suffered losses and almost went under. Lucas also realized that the dirty games within his father's company were quite well organized.It took him a long time to investigate. Out of several suspects, only two individuals were proven to have embezzled company funds. Unfortunately, those caught were involved in embezzling relatively small amounts.That's why this PR (problem or issue) was so draining for Lucas. He had to go undercover

On that afternoon, in the meeting room, Deasy appeared sulky. In the past few days, her mood had been fluctuating. It all started last weekend when she accidentally met Lucas at a restaurant.At first, she was overjoyed. Ecstatic because, once again, fate had brought her together with the handsome prince, the love of her life.However, just as she was about to approach Lucas, the atmosphere suddenly turned annoying and unpleasant. While they were engaged in conversation, another woman, equally beautiful and graceful, suddenly approached. She joined in, even unexpectedly getting close to Lucas with familiarity and intimacy.Unfortunately, in Deasy's eyes, the two of them looked so harmonious. One handsome, the other beautiful. A perfect match. My goodness, what kind of sight was this?Initially, Deasy wanted to protest. After all, she was the one who met Lucas first and wanted to get closer to him. Why was there suddenly this unfamiliar woman who just squeezed in? But after finding out

At home, while sitting in his office lost in thought, Lucas appeared visibly restless. Anxious, troubled, and agitated.Throughout the afternoon, during his meeting with his father, Lucas was completely unfocused. His mind wandered, thinking about how to handle the issue of Deasy's pregnancy.Felix had promised to help him find a way out. That's why Felix was now standing there, waiting for Lucas to make a decision."I handled things at the hospital, sir. I made sure all the medical team, including the doctor who treated Deasy, keeps quiet about your knowledge of her current condition.""Okay, then what should I do now?"Felix approached, asking permission to sit down, and then faced Lucas, who was massaging his forehead."As planned, per your father's instructions, Lucas Orion must immediately return to Quantum Tech and start the process of resigning while Lucas Morales is away on duty in Singapore.""Okay... Lucas Orion indeed has to resign so Lunas Morales can be free to work at Qu
