Luke frowned in a fret, his veins throbbing as he muttered a curse.
"Damn! How could a stupid birthday dinner take so long?"
Unable to sleep or sit still, he pulled over the clothes on the bed, quickly put them on, took the phone, and left the room.
Eileen stayed at Ruben's place until late because she helped him clean up the room.
After that, she watched the clock and found it was past eleven p.m. It was late.
Ruben went to get his car to drive them home.
Brad had fallen asleep.
Afraid that he would feel uncomfortable, Eileen carried him to the back seat.
She bent over, taking off his shoes.
She then took the blanket and covered him with it gently so as not to wake him.
They were silent all the way in the car. No one spoke. Only the sound of light breathing could be heard.
A few minutes later, the car arrived outside the apartment.
Eileen was about to pick up Brad when Ruben got out of the driver's seat and came over. "Let me help you."
"Thanks."
Eileen leaned back so that he could pick up Brad.
They got out of the car. Ruben and Eileen walked forward side by side.
Therefore, they didn't notice a black Bentley parked in the dark. The car door was opened.
The man in a suit came out, following behind them as quietly as a thief.
"How do you feel about me?"
While walking forward, Ruben asked Eileen.
He quickly regained his composure, staring at the man and woman hand in hand in front of him, his eyes as sharp as a knife.
At the same time, there was a voice in his mind, "Shake him off! Shake him off!"
She always treated him like poison when h e touched her hands.
Now that this man held her hand for so long, she should resist him, right?
His big hands hanging against his sides moved. It seemed that he would rush up if Eileen didn't pull her hand back.
The next moment, Eileen gently pushed Ruben's hand away, saying, "I'm sorry. I don't want a relationship right now."
Hearing this, Luke curved his thin lips slowly.
The anxiety and gloom disappeared. He smiled dazzlingly.
He felt wonderful that the man was refused.
