"I didn't intend to eavesdrop. I just wanted to ask when you'd be able to get out?"
Yasmeen felt quite embarrassed, especially since she had paused for a moment because she had heard Julian's name. She didn't expect that pause to be noticed by Lucas.
In fact, even if he had found out, it was fine. It was the name Julian that made her suddenly realize something.
Maybe Lucas knew that Julian had come to see her.
And he was looking into his identity. Did he suspect her too?
The thought of that made Yasmeen's face turn white.
Lucas withdrew his eyes and said indifferently, "It's nothing. Are you bored down there by yourself?"
"Yeah."
Yasmeen nodded. She had indeed come up here because she was bored, but she hadn't expected to hear any of this stuff.
"Just stay with me. I'll check something out. You can play by yourself."
Lucas didn't really care and continued to lower his head and start tapping away at the keyboard. But Yasmeen hesitated.
"I... I'd better go down, so as not to disturb your work."
Besides, she knew how confidential Lucas's work was.
If you love someone, don't be a burden to him, and don't indulge yourself in spoiling his bottom line and principles.
After saying this, Yasmeen quickly turned around and left without waiting for Lucas' reaction.
Lucas appreciated Yasmeen's attitude and practice but knew that Yasmeen must be feeling bad.
He suddenly stood up.
"Wait."
"What?"
Yasmeen tensed up at once.
He wasn't going to question her about Julian, was he?
Yasmeen's palms were suddenly sweating.
She watched as Lucas slowly walked towards her, and it was as if he carried an intimidating pressure that made her subconsciously want to take a step back. But Lucas took her hand and whispered, "I'll go down and make you something to eat. When you are bored alone, you can have some."
"Huh?"
Yasmeen suddenly froze.
What the hell?
Something to eat?
