“Do you think she's going to come?” Lucas asked Austin over the phone as his thoughts trailed off to the last conversation he had with Emma Smith.Austin smirked as he listened to his friend, “Let me guess, you told her outright to marry you.”“Yes, exactly, and I offered to pay her ten times her salary if she agreed to the offer,” Lucas replied.“And you expect her to agree instantly, you must have scared the poor lady out of her wits. You could have at least taken it slow with her,” Austin answered back.“Well, I didn't think it would take her this long to make a decision, and I don't think anyone would refuse to marry me,” Lucas replied before picking his keys from the counter table.Lucas headed to the garage, he wanted to drive his Bentley but decided against it for some reason and drove his motorbike instead.“Lucas, Lucas, can you hear me?” Austin called out, bringing him back to reality.“What are you going to do if Emma refuses your proposal?”“No way that is going to happen,
