Chapter 273

When they arrived downstairs, neither of them got out of the car first.

Even so, neither of them uttered a word.

Lucas glanced at the time casually and said, “It’s too late. You can stay overnight at my place!”

Genevieve’s heart skipped a beat. She was unconvinced.

“I don’t want to stay overnight at your place. I want to stay in a hotel.”

Lucas frowned and explained gently, “The driver is about to get off work. In addition, my foot was injured. I need someone to take care of me. It will be more convenient if you can stay!”

But Genevieve thought too much.

They had only known each other for a few days. He wanted her to stay overnight at his place. He must have ulterior motives towards her!

Genevieve pursed her lips. “I can ask my driver to pick me up.”

Lucas looked at her in silence.

He didn’t look angry but felt helpless.

Genevieve gritted her teeth and said bluntly, “Although I want to ask you for help, we’ve talked about it before. I won’t sleep with you in exchange for saving my brother. If you don’t want to help me, that’s fine. I’ll figure out a way to save my brother!”

Lucas knitted his eyebrows.

A few seconds later, he softened his face and took a deep breath.

“I’m afraid you got me wrong. I don’t have ulterior motives toward you by asking you to stay overnight at my place. Have you ever considered whether the gunshot tonight was targeted at me or you?”

Lucas suddenly stopped talking.

Genevieve’s face turned pale.

Were they aiming at her?

She suddenly remembered the people who had kidnapped Jeffrey.

Her heart skipped a beat all of a sudden.

What if they tried to kidnap her and threaten her family?

It was possible. There was no such thing as coincidence in this world.

She looked at Lucas nervously and felt uneasy.

“Thank you for letting me stay at your home,” Genevieve said.

She didn’t know anybody in this city. Lucas‘ house was the safest place for her.

It was wise to play safe.

Genevieve immediately got out of the car and looked at Lucas in the car sincerely.
