"Sir, it's only five o'clock," Max reminded him.
"I'm not blind." Arthur looked up and shot him a cold glance.
Max was speechless.
He thought, "Then why are you staring at your phone? There are still 7 hours till midnight!"
...
Lucy sat in her office holding the contract Arthur had given her. She had read through it several times,
but she still couldn't make up her mind.
She sighed and leaned back in her chair, considering the success rate of escaping Arthur. The answer
was zero.
Ding—
Kylah sent her a text.
"Lucy, let's have dinner tonight! How about barbecue?"
Lucy felt like she wouldn't get an answer from pondering like that and taking a chill pill was probably
better. So, she agreed.
After work, she drove to the barbecue stall Kylah had suggested.
The sun had set and the temperature had dropped. It was only about 7 p.m., but the stall was already
bustling with people.
As soon as Lucy got out of the car, her hourglass figure attracted the attention of quite a few men.
When she tucked her curly red hair behind her ear and revealed her exquisite features, more men
started to try and shoot their shot.
Lucy had long since gotten used to stares like that, so she didn't take it to heart. She started looking for
Kylah amongst the bustling crowd.
"Lucy!"
Just as Lucy was considering if she should call Kylah to ask where she was, a pleasant voice called out
to her, and the crowd exclaimed——
"He's so handsome!"
"The two of them are a perfect match. They must be a couple, right?"
"Oh my god, I envy that pretty girl. She has such a dashing boyfriend!"
That stall had an indoor and outdoor dining area, and Lucy thought Kylah, who liked a happening
atmosphere, would choose to sit outside. Unexpectedly, she was sitting inside,...and Maddox was with
her.
"Maddox." Lucy smiled and walked towards him.
They stood side by side and their perfect looks attracted countless glances. However, they had long
since gotten used to that.
"Kylah is waiting for us on the third floor." Maddox led her upstairs and tilted his head to speak to her.
Lucy made a vague noise, not knowing what to say.
Now that the Pate Group was in such a crisis, did Maddox know that she had caused it? If he
knew...would he blame her?
"Do you have something on your mind?" Maddox had been paying attention to her expression and
asked worriedly.
Lucy smiled. "How could there be? The most I could be worried about is whether I can eat before Kylah
snatches all the food."
She wanted to ask how the Pate Group was doing, but she really didn't have the courage.
"You don't have to worry about that." Maddox pat her head, but after reaching out halfway, he pulled his
hand back. "Eat more, there's no need to fight."
"I was just kidding. You thought I was serious?" After being in the business world for more than five
years, it was very rare for Lucy to meet anyone as innocent as Maddox.
Only then did Maddox realize that she had only been joking, and he blushed right away.
Seeing his flushed face, Lucy felt very amused. He looked like a little girl who had just gotten teased by
a bunch of boys!
Fortunately, they had reached the third floor, and Kylah came out of the private room to look for them.
"Lucy, are you a snail? If I didn't come out to find you, you would have taken another day to reach."
"Maddox came to bring me in. Why don't you blame him for being slow?" Lucy retorted.
Kylah pouted and gave her a sour look. "Maddox has such long legs. I'm sure it was you who couldn't
keep up with him with those short legs of yours!"
"Babe, are you blind? Do you want me to recommend you a good eye specialist?" Lucy smiled
cunningly.
"Get lost! My eyesight is fine!"
"Haha, that just means your mind is troubled. Poor eyesight can be treated, but not the mind!"
Kylah and Lucy bickered all the way to the room, and Maddox walked alongside them smiling from ear
to ear.
"Mommy..." Caden hadn't seen Lucy in a long time. He spread his arms wide and rushed into Lucy's
arms, and when she carried him, he gave her a smacking kiss.
Carrying him, Lucy looked down at the grease stains on her clothes and face, and her temples
throbbed.
"Kid, get away before your mother erupts with anger!" Kylah carried Caden and dashed aside, taking
the seat furthest away from Lucy.
"Caden!" Lucy looked at her son, who was holding an oyster, and smiled terrifyingly. "Haven't I told you
not to hug me when your hands are oily?"
Caden curled up against Kylah and said miserably, "Mommy, I just miss you too much!"
"Lucy, you are not allowed to scold my godson!" Kylah shielded Caden like a hen protecting her eggs.
Maddox handed Lucy a paper napkin and helped calm her down. "He just misses you too much, so he
didn't think before acting. Don't blame him!"
"..."
She glanced at Kylah and saw Caden smiling cheekily. He even made a face at her. He didn't even
look scared.
Lucy sighed and wiped away the grease stains with the paper napkin. That father and son duo were
going to be the death of her!
Since everyone had arrived, they started ordering.
Caden had already ordered two oysters and three chicken wings beforehand, and he was almost done
eating, so Lucy didn't order his share.
Business was booming at the restaurant, so they had to wait for a while for their food to be served.
With nothing to do, they sat around and chatted casually. Ignoring Caden's age and gender, he was
behaving as if he were Maddox's future mother-in-law——
"Wow, Uncle Maddox, you're so handsome and cool. What's your job?
"Uncle Maddox, do you have a girlfriend? What do you think of my mom?
"Uncle Maddox, would you mind if your future fiancé has a child?"
Caden asked his questions seriously, and Maddox answered him seriously. At the same time, Kylah
listened seriously too.
Lucy, who was the topic of discussion, felt so awkward that she wanted to bury her head in the plate of
oysters. She wanted to change the topic a few times, but she failed.
Fortunately, the waiter brought in ten skewers of mutton, six skewers of roasted chicken wings, and six
skewers of scallops.
"Let's eat!" Lucy stuffed a roasted chicken wing into Kylah's mouth and handed Maddox a scallop.
"Maddox, the scallop here is pretty good. Try it!"
Kylah took a bite of chicken and glared at Lucy. Her look said, "You ruined my perfect plans!"
"Babe, don't cause drama!" Lucy shot her a look in return. Her gaze was flirty and playful.
Feeling displeased, Caden coughed twice and tried to get Lucy's attention. However, the two women
were exchanging meaningful looks and did not notice him at all.
