His Eagle Eyes on Me
Chapter 2534

An hour later, Lucas saw Kasey out of the house. The silver car disappeared into the distance as soon as she got inside the car, and Lucas returned to the South Block, halting when he spotted Irene standing dazedly in the yard.

The snow was brief and light, but there was already a thin layer of snow on Irene's head and shoulders.

"What are you doing?!" He reached out to clear the snow on her head. "Isn't it cold out here?"

She sobered and said, "Mr. Lucas, I saw Ms. Bennett. She is so pretty."

"Did you stand here the entire time because you wanted to see her?" He dragged her back into the house.

"Not entirely... You are having dinner in the main block tonight, so I didn't have to make dinner. I got bored!" Her face and nose were red from the cold, and her skin began to itch once they went indoors. "You are so stupid!" He studied her face and cursed, immediately regretting his words as soon as they left his lips. "If you catch a cold, who is going to take care of me?"

She grinned at him. "I am wearing enough layers so I won't catch a cold. It's snowing out there, but it's not a storm. A snowstorm would freeze me, so I wouldn't have been out there if there was a storm." "The doors to the Main Block are shut, so what exactly were you even trying to see?" he said before adding, "Do you want to make more money?"

Without hesitation, she nodded. "Do you have any ideas, Mr. Lucas?"

"You can live here! Mrs. Flores is a live-in servant as well, isn't she? That way, you can save up on rent and living expenses." Not wanting her to misunderstand, he said, "And if I want food in the middle of the night, I can get you to cook for me."

"Oh!" She hesitated. She could be a live-in servant, but her "condition" could complicate the situation.

"Why are you hesitating? You don't want to?" Lucas had not expected her to hesitate.

After a few moments, she said, "I

think it's best if I don't live here, Mr. Lucas. I don't want your dad to misunderstand. I don't want to make another mistake and cause you any more trouble. If you want to eat I the middle of the night, I can go home later."

"My dad suggested that you are trying to seduce me?" he asked, although he already knew the answer to his question.

"Mr. Lucas, we are around the same

age, and I was careless before, so it's normal that they would misunderstand. It's best that I live in my own apartment," she said before beaming at Lucas. "I will go home later tonight. Let me know if you

want something to eat." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I ate a lot tonight, so I don't need more food." He sat down on the couch and looked at her. "Have you been studying these past few days?"

"Of course!"

"Have you been looking for another job?"

"I got some freelance work. My late grandma's friend got me the job. I can't earn much with it, though," Irene said. "Thank you for getting me my job back, Mr. Lucas. You have done me a great favor, and I will repay "

"The more time I spend with you, the more you remind me of my dog," he interrupted her, not wanting her to thank him. "Every time I reached home, my dog was the only one waiting for me. He was the only one who had stayed by my side the

entire time."

"I know how that feels, Mr. Lucas. I grew up with just my grandma, and now that she's gone, returning to an empty home all alone can feel really lonely sometimes. I have no one to talk to, so I enjoy talking to you."

"Which is why you don't have to read too deep into what I did for you."

"Okay, Mr. Lucas." She grinned from ear to ear. "I'm really thankful no matter what drove you to do me this kindness."

"It's late. Go home and rest! Come back earlier tomorrow." Lucas felt a little tired.

Irene picked up her backpack and grabbed the garbage bag before leaving the South Block.
