The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 2151

Lucas grunted and said nothing more.

Meanwhile, Stella relished her meal. When they had finished eating, Stella was already mentally prepared to part ways with Lucas, but to her surprise, he offered to take her home.

"Are you sure? Don't you have company matters to handle?" Stella asked, blushing.

Lucas nodded. "They're not urgent. I have some time to see you off."

"Okay." Stella lowered her head shyly and put on a coquettish act by tucking a strand of hair behind her ears.

Lucas, however, ignored her and got in the driver's seat. His coldness left Stella a bit disheartened, but she quickly snapped herself out of it. "It's fine. I have all night."

Since he had offered to send her home, she needed to seize the opportunity to get intimate with him. As they say, 'best to strike while the iron is hot.'

When Stella arrived at her doorstep, she was just about to invite Lucas in when he himself said he would like to relax at her home for a moment. Stella was over the moon at how smoothly everything was going on that day. Melody's absence seemed to make everything go her way.

"Sure! I just acquired a painting recently. It's the work of one of your favorite painters. I have it displayed in my bedroom. Would you like to see it?"

She was so forthright that her intentions were almost plain for all to see.

"I didn't know you were a collector."

"I'm not, but I decided to because you like it."

Stella could not resist leaning against Lucas, so he raised his hand to support her. The force he used was a little too strong, and Stella was in some pain as a result. "Ouch! Please be gentle, Lucas. It hurts!"

Lucas apologized and relaxed his grip without releasing it. He knew that letting go would only give her the incentive to lean against him again.

Stella, however, was not preoccupied with all those thoughts. She could already foresee that Lucas was not going to behave the same way once they were alone in her room. Once they were inside Stella's home, she led Lucas into her bedroom under the guise of viewing the painting. It was hanging above her bed as she had mentioned earlier.

"Isn't it beautiful?"

Lucas acknowledged it curtly.

As soon as Stella's attention wavered, he discreetly scoured the room in search of something. The safest place to store an item would be a place that no one would dare to enter.

If he were Stella, he would have chosen to keep any evidence in her room. More importantly, she probably did not have the time to dispose of that evidence because there would not have been enough time to do so.

"Right?"

As Stella turned, Lucas suddenly held her shoulders. "I didn't hear what you just said earlier. Could you please say it again?" sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I said..." she repeated shyly, "you and I met first. If Melody hadn't butted in, you and I would've been a couple."

Your face is dirty," Lucas remarked, pointing at her cheek.

"What? Where?" Stella covered her face quickly because she did not want to look unattractive in front of Lucas.
