Chapter Thirty Nine; What Else Are You Passionate About?

When Lucas heard her mention Elio’s name, he was no longer hesitant, but he let her drag him along until they reached the entrance of another hut.

Vienna stood in front of the door and knocked twice before she opened the door and pushed Lucas in first.

He was still yet to recover from the push when she entered and went straight to hug the only other person inside the room apart from the two of them and another man in black suit who he figured was probably a guard.

Lucas thought that Vienna is too huggy today if that’s even a word.

Surely he can’t just continue to pretend not to know right?

Lucas thought as he casually looked from the floor length glass door to the entrance of the place he was told to wait for the assistant.Maybe they just came in casual outfits and would change later? He thought.Lucas had browsed about the company, it was known for its excellent and comfortable working space, but the internet gave little information about what really went on inside the company.Lucas waited for a while before the door opened, someone who looked about the same age as Lucas came and entered.“Hello sir, my name is Henry Maxwell, you can just call me Henry, but I am the personal ass
