Chapter 702: Chapter 705: Capricious Man (Extra 1)
“Let’s go back to the office.”
After a long wait, the conference room, where no one had been talking, finally echoes with Aidan Lucas’s cold voice.
Lily Gray hesitated and looked at Aidan Lucas, who was sitting at the head of the table.
But the man got up and walked towards the door without giving her a second glance.
Lily Gray couldn’t understand what was going on.
Why did she feel that Aidan Lucas was angry?
However, she couldn’t rember when she had provoked him.
This morning, he had passionately kissed her in her sleep before leaving.
But now, his attitude had beco so distant and cold.
Lily Gray couldn’t help but wonder where the problem lay.
Was Aidan Lucas blaming her for coming here suddenly without informing him in advance?
Or did he feel that her performance earlier had embarrassed him?
Or perhaps, he was worried about the company… or maybe the attitude of the Scott family had influenced him, causing him to feel disgusted with her?
But that shouldn’t be the case. Aidan Lucas wasn’t such a person.
Lily Gray thought about the matter over and over again but couldn’t comprehend what she had done to anger him.
Why had this man suddenly put on such an unapproachable face?
Aidan Lucas walked to the door and noticed that Lily Gray was still sitting in her seat, not following him.
He turned his head and spoke indifferently, his voice chilly, “Lily Gray?”
The man’s cold voice echoed in her ears.
It startled Lily Gray.
She jumped up from her seat like a rabbit.
The composed, elegant Mrs. Lucas disappeared in an instant.
In front of him, she beca that delicate, soft little woman again.
“Oh, I’m coming.”
Lily Gray obediently walked over, thinking that this man, Aidan Lucas, was really moody.
Seeing her follow him obediently, Aidan Lucas’s icy, perfect features slightly softened.
He glanced at her but didn’t say anything and walked in the direction of his office.
Lily Gray followed behind him with her head down, feeling like a guilty student caught by the dean.
Both walked one after the other in silence.
Lily Gray followed behind him, lifting her eyes to steal a glance at Aidan Lucas, who was walking ahead.
The man in front of her had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a straight back, and black tailored pants wrapped around his long, powerful legs.
He appeared even taller and more upright.
However, his whole body seed shrouded in an icy cold aura, and even without getting close, the chill emanating from him could be felt.
Lily Gray couldn’t help but shiver. There was no doubt he was attractive, but her own life was more important.
She resolved to act submissive and apologize to Aidan Lucas as soon as they entered the door, no matter what the reason.
Even if she didn’t know what had angered this petty man, apologizing first was always the right thing to do.
With this decision, she felt more at ease following behind him.
Both walked one after the other.
The rooftop was sparsely populated, and Secretary Elsa Collins and Personal Assistant Samuel Mckinley had detected the chill coming from Mr. Cooper and wisely kept their distance.
Only Young Lady dared to follow behind Mr. Cooper without being flattened against the wall by him.
Upon arriving outside the office, Aidan Lucas opened the door and entered; Lily Gray naturally followed.
To her surprise, once inside, she heard the locking sound.
Then, she was pinned against the door by Aidan Lucas.
“Uhm, I… I’m sorry, please don’t be mad.” Lily Gray, already prepared, skillfully pleaded; shalessly clutching the man’s suit collar.
“Oh, you’re sorry? What for?” Aidan Lucas raised an eyebrow, and with a deep, indifferent coldness, gazed down at the little woman beneath him.
Lily Gray’s heart thumped, as it had been quite so ti since Aidan Lucas had looked at her with such a cold and indifferent gaze.
