Chapter 28 - WHAT A SHAMELESS WOMAN!
Ellena is still doing the same thing. Feed Lucas. As time went on, she finally got over her awkwardness. Dealing with Lucas at a very close distance, it was enough to make her heart flutter. Yes, it's always been like that. Herself didn't understand why the pounding always felt great when she was with Lucas.
Lucas didn't refuse a spoonful of food. The look is still the same. However, the sound of a cell phone ringing suddenly caught both of their attention. Their activities stopped.
Lucas glanced at the phone that was still in his hand. Even with Ellena who also did the same thing. In just seconds, the phone was in Lucas' ear.
"Hello, Alex!
" said Lucas flatly.
"What?
"
Lucas seemed to jump when he heard the news from Alex. Unknowingly he lifted part of his body and sat down on the sofa. In fact, he seemed to have forgotten the pain in his head. I don't know what news Alex brought, so that made him very surprised like that.
"How could he dare come to the office?
" he asked in surprise.
"I don't want to know! Get rid of her right now, and make sure that he won't dare to see me again!
" Lucas insisted and then immediately turned off the line.
Instantly his jaw tightened. Apparently, the news from Alex had really made him very inflamed. He clenched his fists so tightly. This immediately caught Ellena's attention.
"You have a problem?
" Elena asked hesitantly.
It wasn't that Ellena wanted to meddle in Lucas' business. Actually, she could have ignored it. However, Lucas' expression this time managed to make her feel pity. What's more, when you're sick like that.
"None of your business!
" Lucas snapped as he glanced at Ellena for a moment, before looking away again.
"Okay, if you don't want to talk.
" Ellena immediately gave up as soon as she received an unpleasant response from Lucas.
"Would you like to continue your breakfast?
" she asked then.
"No!
"
Ellena took a deep breath. Again Lucas was cold and cynical towards her. She was confused, why Lucas could be so angry just because of a trivial question from her. Akh, She became sorry for having made small talk and cared so much. In fact, she should have just ignored Lucas' fury.
"Okay, I'll go. Maybe you need some time alone to calm your mind,
" Ellena sneered as she got up.
Her sarcasm this time suddenly made Lucas squint in annoyance. However, Ellena immediately left the place, as if not wanting to give Lucas a chance to comment.
"What a strange man! He'll be angry for a while, then he'll be fine. What exactly does he want?
" Ellena grumbled which Lucas could still hear.
It seemed that Ellena had forgotten about Lucas' keen hearing. However she said those words very quietly, Lucas could still hear what he was saying.
"What are you saying? You're calling me a freak?
" Lucas sneered and glared at Ellena scornfully.
Ellena stopped, then turned to Lucas. Lucas' gaze this time really made her want to hide in the safest place.
"What? What did I say?
" Ellena dodged. She pretended not to say anything about Lucas. It would be stupid if she admitted it. It could be that Lucas will be even more furious by her.
"You think I'm deaf, huh?
" Lucas got up from his seat and walked over to Ellena. It seemed that he had indeed forgotten the pain in his head.
"What?
" Ellena took a step back.
"I didn't say anything, Lucas,
" he said, still trying to deny it.
Lucas smirked.
"Until this moment I'm still confused, why God brought me to someone like you, Elle. Besides being unattractive, you are also very annoying!
" Lucas then rushed from the place, after he managed to make Ellena flabbergasted.
"If I'm as annoying and unattractive as you say, why don't we just cancel the agreement?
" shouted Ellena who must have been offended by Lucas' words. However, unfortunately Lucas just ignored it and went into his room.
'I may not be beautiful and attractive, but he shouldn't say that. Am I that bad in his eyes? Make it big!' Ellena grumbled in her heart.
***
Elsewhere, in Lucas' corporate office to be exact. Alex and two security people seemed to be trying to secure a rebellious Selena who wanted to come in to meet Lucas. In fact, Alex had already said that Lucas wasn't coming to work. However, Selena didn't believe it. She kept insisting, thus making Alex and the two security guards act immediately.
"Let go of me! I want to see Lucas!
" Selena shouted still trying to fight back.
The two security guards seemed to flanking Selena. They grabbed both of Selena's hands and pulled her out very roughly. It certainly became the center of attention of the employees in the office.
For the second time, Selena was treated like trash in the office. In fact, previously all employees were very submissive to her. However, that was back then, when she was still Lucas' lover. Now? It was just a dream for her. No one would treat her like a queen in that place anymore.
"What a shameless woman! Hasn't she been kicked out of this office before?
" Jesslyn whispered to Kikan, the employee at the office.
"I think she's gone mad. How could she do such a shameful thing to herself?
" Kikan responded while shaking her head.
So many monohic remarks that came out of the mouths of several company employees. However, there were also those who didn't care about Selena's actions at that time.
Sneak after sneer came from the mouths of several employees there. They didn't know what happened to Lucas and Selena's relationship, so they didn't get married. However, seeing the attitude of Lucas who treated Selena like that, of course they could conclude that the woman had made a very fatal mistake.
However, there was something that confused them. Actually, how is Lucas' relationship with Ellena? Why did Lucas prefer Ellena, an ordinary employee who certainly wasn't comparable to Selena?
Ellena and Lucas' wedding, which is only three days old, is a big question for all employees. It is still hotly discussed by them.
"No! Let me see Lucas!
" Selena screamed, still struggling to be released. However, the two security guards didn't care, until they both threw Selena and fell on the floor in front of the office.
"Never come to this office again, if you don't want your life to be ruined!
" Alex firmly represented Lucas.
"I just want to see Lucas. Please let me see him, please!
" asked Selena in a sitting position.
"Don't dream! Mr. Lucas doesn't want to see you anymore. Even if he only looks at your face, he is fed up. So don't get your hopes up. Mr.. Lucas can't possibly go back to a woman like you!
" said Alex who seemed to know all the truth about Selena.
