Lucas’s pov“When it rains , it pours.” This shitshow of a day makes me want to believe in this adage . I’ve been working on this big deal with Ashley homestores for six months only for them to cancel the deal today saying an internal e-mail was leaked to them that I rushed product testing. Stocks were in free fall saying that consumers were complaining about our products. I wonder who must have hacked through my emails. The only person I have ever trusted with my passwords is Emery and she definitely won’t betray me . My IT team has spent hours this morning trying to put my security system back in order. I suspect that Austin and his mom will surely have a hand in this . “Talk to me ,” I growled angrily at my manager.“The press has been on my neck saying they need an explanation from you on the rumors concerning the low quality of our products.”“I can’t talk to the press now . It’s your job to deal with situations like this Richard .” I said, slamming my hands on th

Lucas’s pov.I was so close to brushing my lips against hers before Austin rushed at us and pushed me away from her . He put on an angry look ,his blue eyes had turned icy blue and it seemed as though there’s a fire burning inside. “Get your hands off of her,” he commanded as he rushed at us and yanked me away from her. “She’s mine.” “Oh really!”I maintained my balance and edged closer beside Austin making sure my mouth was close to his ears. “You don’t need to be dramatic.

Two, releasing the video means ruining the reputation of your so-called secret lover and you’re well aware of what that will do to him. And lastly, I have the address of your sweet-loving mother. Surprise!” He released me followed by a grin on his face . “What! How dare you turn our agreement into a threat, you arrogant son-of-a-bitch.” My mind raced with jumbled thoughts with his words echoing in my mind. My mum doesn’t deserve to be harmed for my actions and I wouldn’t want to be the cause for Lucas losing his inheritance. Me accepting the proposal means he has absolute power over me.
