Chapter 1

There was rare silence in the huge cafe. Lucia lowered her head, stirring the coffee in front of her nervously. The atmosphere fell into an awkward state for a while.

“First time on a blind date?” the man asked in a plain tone after being seated for half a minute. His aura was too strong, and just a simple question sentence made Lucia even more nervous.

Today was Lucia Mitchell’s first blind date in her life. Under the coercion of her mother, she reluctantly came to the pre-appointed cafe and found the designated seat. She had thought that today was going to be a formality, but the man who had sat down turned out to be August Adams, the CEO of Lion Group. He had a huge influence in Austos city!

Worse still, Lucia worked in Lion Group as a small clerk in the administration department. Of course August would not know her, but it was too hard for Lucia to pretend she did not know him.

She was so nervous that she stuttered, “Yes, the… the first time…”

August looked back and forth at Lucia with his cold gaze, and continued to ask,

“Have you graduated from college?”

“Yes.” Lucia swallowed unconsciously and added, “It is been two years since graduation.”

Hearing the answer, August was silent for a while, and there was no emotion on his handsome face. But Lucia felt quite nervous in her heart. On the one hand, she was thinking about what kind of fairy her mother worshiped and got such a top blind date. On the other hand, she wondered if August was sitting in the wrong place. Or was she sitting in the wrong place? She glanced at the number plate on the table from the corner of her eye, and it was indeed No.18.

“Sorry… did you find the wrong seat?” Lucia asked with courage.

“Have you got your ID card?” August said.

They two spoke at the same time, and also stopped abruptly at the same time. Lucia raised her head in shock after hearing August’s words. Seeing August’s near-perfect face from such a close distance, Lucia felt her cheeks flushing and her mind going blank.

August was very handsome, even better looking than the popular stars. However, as a businessman, he emitted a domineering temperament, which often made people want to run away.

Lucia had entered Lion Group as an intern since college, and stayed after the internship for two years. In the past two years, she had only seen August from behind in a distance a few times. Now they were sitting face to face, which was even more fantastic than a dream.

“Do you have any questions?” August looked at Lucia’s blushing face, and the coldness in his eyes lessened. Lucia shook her head, what problem could she have with her boss!

Suddenly, August’s cell phone rang, and he picked it up. After a brief silence, he replied neatly, “Got it.” Then, he hung up the phone and looked up at Lucia, “Let’s go.” He got up as sharply as he spoke and did things.

Lucia obediently stood up and followed August out of the cafe as if she was bewildered. August was 6.2 ft, so Lucia, 5.6 ft, looked petite behind him. She followed August into the car, a black business Maybach that he often drove.

Sitting in such a luxurious car, Lucia was very uneasy. She kept stirring her two fingers, asking herself from time to time if she was dreaming. However, all her reactions were seen by August.

“My family forced me to go on a blind date. I do not want to waste my time on this. You look not bad, a good candidate for marriage.” In the quiet car, August’s magnetic voice suddenly rang in Lucia’s ear.

Lucia looked at August in astonishment. Although she came to have a blind date with him, they were not at the stage of marriage, “Do you need to think about it again as we seem not to be quite familiar with each other…”
