Long Time, My Baby

Chapter 40 Gratitude

On the second morning, Lucian and Leah went to the Glory Group.

In the office, Charlie was reading documents.

Clang! Clang! Clang.

Without raising his head, Charlie said, "Come in."

The female secretary walked in gracefully and said with a smile, "Mr. Charlie, the president of MZ group, Mr. Lucian together with Miss Ye has come to visit."

Charlie paused and looked up at the Secretary, "Which Miss Ye?"

"Miss Leah." The Secretary replied.

"What's the matter with them?" Charlie put down his pen.

"Mr. Lucian said he was here to thank you."

'Thank me? For what happened yesterday?'

"Invite them in."

He would like to see how Lucian would thank him.

"Yes, sir."

In the lounge, Leah grabbed her clothes and looked a little nervous.

"Nervous?" Lucian held Leah's waist and asked softly.

"A little?" Leah nodded.

Lucian smiled, "it's just an ex-boyfriend. Your real boyfriend is here. Why are you so nervous?"

Hearing this, Leah] glared at him. The tense atmosphere was ruined by him.

Lucian smiled more brightly when she saw a pair of almond eyes staring at him.

"Mr. Lucian, Miss Leah, Mr. Charlie invites you in." The female secretary walked into the lounge and made a gesture of "please".

"Let's go." Lucian stood up, straightened his clothes and reached out his hand to Leah who was sitting on the sofa.

Leah smiled at him and put her hand in his palm.

In the office, Charlie looked at the possessive hand on Leah's waist and pursed his lips, with a flash of sadness in his eyes.

"Mr. Lucian, I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Charlie politely reached out his hand.

"You're welcome, Mr. Charlie." Lucian held his hand and looked at the man coldly.

Leah felt her hands on her waist tightened. She frowned and looked at Lucian. They seemed to be at a stalemate.

"Please have a seat, Mr. Lucian." Charlie bent his long legs and sat on the sofa. Lucian held Leah's waist and sat opposite him.

Charlie glanced at Leah and then looked at Lucian, "Mr. Lucian and Miss Leah, what brings you here today?"
