Chapter 952: Making A Statement



The anticipation of the weekend hung in the air and as the clock ticked closer to the end of the workday on Friday, Lucas pulled into the parking lot of I-Global.

Although it was still thirty minutes before the official close of work, Lucas couldn't wait to see Amy and start their weekend together.

All through the week, he had tried his best to limit the frequency and duration of his visits despite her protests, and he had missed spending quality time with her.

The moment the time struck 5 p.m., Lucas got out of the car and strode to the entrance of the building, which was already seeing a trickle of employees ready to call it a day.

Leaning casually against the wall, Lucas waited, not wanting to enter the company. His presence was hard to miss- not just because of his tall, and nice physique, but because of the single red rose that was playfully tucked between his lips.

It added a touch of whimsy to his usual composed demeanor. Every now and then, he'd adjust the collar of his navy blue shirt or run a hand through his dark hair, a small smile playing on his lips as he thought of Amy.

As employees began to leave the building, Lucas attracted more than a few curious glances. Women smiled appreciatively, while men nodded in acknowledgment, all intrigued by the sight of a handsome man with a flower. Whispers passed between them.

"Who do you think he's waiting for?" one of the women asked her colleague as they passed by.

"Must be someone special," the other replied, her eyes lingering on the rose. "He's definitely making a statement."

The suspense didn't last long. Just as the crowd began to thin, Amy emerged from the building, her laughter carrying through the air as she chatted with two of her colleagues.

Her hair bounced with each step, and the sunlight seemed to catch the spark of her joy. But as soon as she saw Lucas, her eyes widened with delight, and a playful giggle escaped her lips.

"Luca!" she called out, breaking away from her group as she walked towards him. "What are you doing here? And why didn't you come inside?"

Lucas, the rose still tucked between his lips, gave her a lopsided grin. "Thought I'd make a grand gesture," he mumbled around the flower, his voice slightly muffled.

Amy couldn't help but laugh, her heart swelling with affection. She reached out, gently taking the rose from his lips and twirling it between her fingers. "A grand gesture, huh? And here I thought you were just trying to get all the females here to notice you." she teased.

One of Amy's female colleagues, who had followed her outside, glanced between them with a knowing smile. "Is this your boyfriend, Amy?" she asked, her tone full of curiosity.

"Is he the reason you've been smiling so much lately?" The other, a male, asked with a teasing smile.

Lucas raised an eyebrow and turned to Amy, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "Well, Amy, how about you answer that?"

Amy's cheeks flushed a soft pink, but she didn't shy away. Instead, she gave her colleague a radiant smile. "Yes, this is Lucas," she said, her voice filled with warmth. "And yes, he's the reason for the smiles."

Her colleague's eyes widened slightly as she looked Lucas up and down. "He's handsome and romantic," she commented, genuinely impressed. "You've got a good one, Amy."

"Thank you," Lucas responded with a charming smile, making the women giggle before they bid their goodbyes and headed off to their cars.

Lucas held out his arm, a playful gesture that made Amy chuckle as she looped her own through his. They walked in sync towards the car, the familiarity between them making each step feel effortless.

Lucas turned to Amy when he felt her gaze on him, "Why are you grinning?" He asked with a curious smile when he caught her staring at him with a wide smile.

Lucas let out a relieved breath, "Your personality is so refreshing, Amy."

"Yeah. I'm wonderful like that," she said, and he chuckled.

Lucas couldn't help but marvel at how naturally things were progressing between them. "I

can't believe we've only been dating for a week and you're already meeting my family," he said with a chuckle. "Or, well, re-meeting them, I guess."

Amy smirked playfully. "Technically, I met them before I started dating you, so you could say

I'm just continuing where we left off."

When they arrived at Amy's apartment, Lucas parked the car and leaned back in his seat, a

teasing glint in his eyes. "Why don't we go in and pack your bag? I don't mind helping you

pack your undies," he said with a grin.

Amy gasped in mock horror, swatting his arm. "Pervert! No way."

Lucas pouted, feigning disappointment. "You're no fun."

Amy laughed, shaking her head as she got out of the car. "You'll just have to deal with it.

Besides, I've already packed."

Lucas got out of the car and followed her into the house. Amy quickly changed into a more comfortable outfit for the journey, then returned to find Lucas waiting patiently by the door, a

playful smile on his lips.

"You ready?" he asked, taking her bag from her and slinging it over his shoulder.

"All set," she confirmed, locking the door behind her.

As they walked back to the car, hand in hand, Amy felt a deep sense of contentment. She was

happy- happy with Lucas, happy with their plans for the weekend, and happy with the way things were unfolding between them.

As Lucas opened the car door for her once more, he couldn't help but think that maybe, just

maybe, this was the start of something truly special.
