Wedding Agreement With CEO

"No. I have to get out of here soon."

Before Lucas could move, suddenly a knock on the door echoed through the room, causing Lucas and Adley to look at each other for a moment.

"Lucas ... may I come in?"

Precisely. Michelle's voice immediately echoed along with the knock on the door that had not stopped.

Lucas and Adley, who were still staring at each other, immediately turned their attention towards the door. What if Michelle barged in without his permission? Remembering the last time the woman's presence forced him to have lunch together. Ah, it's very annoying.

He shouldn't have taken her to the hospital at that time. At least he doesn't have to feel sorry for knowing Michelle's illness. Only regret is now in his mind. Just imagine if every day he had to serve that woman. It's going to drive him crazy all of a sudden.

"You don't stay still, do something!" Lucas whispered to Adley emphatically.

This time he was already standing, but still in the same place. Unlike Adley who was still sitting on the sofa.

"What should I do?" asked Adley confusedly, holding his hands up and shrugging his shoulders slightly.

"Whatever. No matter what, just don't let her meet me!" Lucas replied looking frustrated.

"Arrgh." Adley sighed in frustration, then got up.

He didn't expect to get involved in his own best friend's problems. If Michelle was easily tricked, he might have become a new prey for him. Too bad, Michelle isn't like other approachable women. Even though their apartments are close together, it still doesn't guarantee that they can become close friends. Last time, he wasn't even allowed into her apartment. Only this time he had difficulty approaching women.

"So what should I tell her?" Adley asked reassuringly, before moving to meet Michelle outside.

"Tell her I'm in a meeting outside." Lucas replied after a moment's thought. Michelle's arrival really made it look like he was being chased by a debt collector.

"Okay."

Adley rushed from the place. He opened the door very slowly and carefully, then quickly closed the door again, before Michelle could see the rest of the room.

"Michelle, are you here?" asked Adley as usual. He looks charming with a wide smile.

"Adley, is Lucas in there? I want to meet him." Michelle asked casually.

"Hm ... you're late, Michelle. He just left ten minutes ago." Adley lied.

"Go?" Michelle seemed silent for a moment. I don't know what's bothering him right now.

"Go where?" Michelle asked again, trying to be sure.

"He has a scheduled meeting with a client outside." Adley explained a little doubtfully.

Silence dominates. Michelle was just stunned, did not immediately respond to the words of the man who towered in front of her.

'Why didn't I see Lucas come out, when I've been in this office since fifteen minutes ago.' Michelle mumbled starting to wonder.

"Are you serious? You're not lying to me, are you?" Michelle seemed to attack Adley with questions.

This of course made Adley a little surprised and confused. How could Michelle have such a bad feeling so quickly that it was as if she was being interrogated.

"O-of course I'm not lying. How could I lie to you. Lucas wasn't in the office." Adley explained a little nervously.

Again Michelle was silent. However, this time she seemed to observe Adley's slightly suspicious facial expressions and movements, which made the man look a little embarrassed.

Caught the inquisitive gaze that Michelle threw at him. Adley reflexively scratched his temple which didn't feel itchy. Ah, his attitude was definitely suspicious. No wonder Michelle did not immediately believe his words.

"Then why are you in Lucas' room when the owner isn't there?" asked Michelle with the same look as before.

"Eemm ... th-that ... I just saved a file that Lucas had to sign. Lucas asked me to keep it on his desk." Adley was a little confused looking for an answer, suddenly making Michelle even more suspicious.

Meanwhile, Lucas who heard their conversation from behind the door looked furious and frustrated. It turns out that Michelle is still the same as before, never giving up for something that has not been achieved.

"Who did he go with?" Michelle made sure again, without stopping to observe the face and attitude of the man in front of her.

"Hah?"

Instead of answering, Adley was flabbergasted. Unlucky. Why did Michelle ask so much detail?

"Eemm ... maybe he went with Alex." Adley answered casually.

Michelle snorted harshly while putting on an annoyed expression.

"I know you're lying. Please step aside, I'm going to meet Lucas!" said Michelle. One hand seemed to be trying to get rid of Adley who was still blocking his way. However, Adley tries his best to stay put and thwart Michelle's plans.

Meanwhile, in the room. Lucas, who was still listening to their conversation, began to struggle to find a way to avoid Michelle. He immediately ran to the desk. Pacing indistinctly while massaging his forehead. Unlucky. Why did Michelle insist on seeing him.

At the same time, Adley is also still struggling to hold Michelle's steps by shifting her feet to the right and left alternately, in an effort to block the way, every time the woman is about to barge in. However, what a shame. His defenses collapsed as Michelle's hands pushed against him with such force that he shifted places in one swoop and Michelle made him way into the room.

Adley immediately turned around with a focused gaze into the room. His hand reflexively slapped his forehead a little hard. He didn't expect to be defeated by a woman. Ah, Michelle just made him even more curious.

Unfortunately, the room seemed deserted when Michelle was already there. There wasn't even a bridge of nose to indicate that Lucas was in the room. This immediately surprised Michelle, while she had a hunch that Lucas was in the room.

"Lucas!" called Michelle, looking around in various directions, hoping that her guess was right and that she could prove Adley's lie.

Slowly, but surely, Michelle entered the room deeper and deeper while looking here and there.

"Lucas, are you here?" She asked still not wanting to give up.

Not wanting anything untoward to happen, Adley immediately followed Michelle inside, intending to prevent the woman from searching for Lucas.

"I told you, Lucas isn't here!" exclaimed Adley, who seemed to be following her, causing the woman to look back.

"I can't believe it! You must be lying!" said Michelle still not believing what Adley said.. It seemed that she had a very strong premonition of Lucas' presence in the room.
