That statement had created tension. Everyone stopped their activities and watched the two people who were the source of this tension.Lora looked so relaxed as she looked at the woman who had been trying to defeat her and put her at the bottom. The woman even stiffened up instantly, her body cooling down because she didn't want Lora's words to happen.Previously, she had been so worried that those words would come out of Lora's mouth. She also didn't want to invite Lora to this relaxing tea party. But because of her father's coercion, she was forced to do so, and it was with a very uncomfortable feeling."You don't want to do it because you think you're so much better, and so is your partner, right?" Lora drank tea so casually. She gave the other women a smile that made them smile stiffly. "This tea is delicious."Of course, her action to relax them a little was utterly useless, as they were still feeling the tension and were naturally curious about what would happen next."I certainl

At the St. Ludwig Café, the four people sitting were silent. The two men sitting close together were observing the man sitting with the beautiful woman with an observant look in their eyes. In their silence, it is evident that she was watching Lucas.Five minutes had passed, but they were still doing something like that. "Just say what you want." Lucas had realized their actions.He was also aware of their desire to meet him, as it was related to the shocking news that had spread.Adam immediately raised his hand, looking at Lucas as he moved his head forward. "Lucas, should we call you sir now?"Lucas tilted his head slightly. Something that surprised and disturbed him a little. He knew that his friend would act a little strangely like this. Before Lucas could reply to Adam's words, Ryan spoke up as if they were identical."If we have to, we probably will. Yes, Mr. Lucas Carter." He pressed further. The heaviness in his voice and the friendship that had been established made Lucas sm

she was used to something luxurious. Lora was looking forward to the date they were going on. Lucas had taken her to a place she'd never been before, and it had been excellent.Now, it made her heart feel like it was going to explode because it was a place she didn't expect them to go.A hotel.It left Lora speechless and at a loss for what to say from her mouth. "What would he do in a hotel?" she asked, squeezing his hand. "I know that we're engaged. But isn't it too soon...?" she bit her own lip.Her heart felt like it would explode with every step she took. She watched Lucas, who still looked as he always did—too calm and didn't seem too tense to do anything with himself.Lora exhaled from her mouth. "Does he not really want to do it with me? Or is he used to doing this?" she bit her lip when her mind thought of that.Lora unknowingly let her disappointment show. It was evident on her face that the person walking beside her noticed. "Are you not feeling well, Lora?"Lora was surpri

Tonight was a lovely date for her. And it was going to end soon, so they were heading towards their car, parked quite far away from where they were now.Lora wasn't too happy that it was ending so quickly. The pounding in her heart was still so fast that she might have trouble sleeping. But she couldn't force her will. Lucas would probably have difficulty resting. Since this man was so busy, he must have sacrificed his rest time for her. That alone should make her feel grateful.On this long, quiet road, their footsteps suddenly stopped, immediately making Lora wary. Things like this had happened several times. Although she didn't appear in her own image, she was still beautiful. Lora didn't doubt that her beauty attracted the attention of others.The four men before them clarified that they were village boys and shouldn't behave like this because Lucas knew the village's rules. They had to keep everyone here safe and comfortable.But no matter how the rules were made, others would op

she was wearing new clothes and now with her own make-up. Last night had made her so tired the fire had been delightful. She couldn't look Lucas straight in the eye because of this."Is anyone sick?" Lucas approached her, asking a question that shocked Lora.Lora's heart almost jumped because of that. She also almost screamed; if she did, it would make her very embarrassed in front of this man. She tried to control herself immediately."ah, nothing. I'm fine." She chuckled so stiffly.In fact, she and Lucas had done it so many times that she felt an overwhelming sense of exhaustion. But she couldn't admit that she was now exhausted because she saw that Lucas seemed fine.She walked with a red face and slight discomfort in her body. But Lucas held her hand suddenly, which surprised Lora.Once they were in the car, Lora was still surprised by what happened, so she looked at Lucas. "Lora, thank you for going out with me."Lora was unable to say anything out of her mouth. Anyone would obv
