Jen was woken up by the warmth that was on her face. When she opened her eyes, she ended up closing them again imdiately. The sun had filtered through the small space between the curtains and was lighting up her face, it was really annoying considering the fact that she wanted to sleep for a bit longer.
She mumbled sothing in annoyance and turned her body so she was facing the other side. She was still feeling drained especially after she was tossed around by Lucas, she looked at the empty space next to her and sighed.
She burrowed her head in the duvet that was warr during the night but had already cooled down significantly since Lucas had already left for work. After failing to fall asleep once more she threw the covers off her body and ended up hugging them once more.
She had forgotten that she was not even dressed yet and it was a bit chilly in the bedroom. She got off the bed with the duvet wrapped around her body and got the robe that had been left in Lucas' study.
When she opened the door she felt her face grow warm as she rembered all the things he had done to her the previous night.
She went to the other side of the study and picked up her robe and the two mugs that were still filled with the hot chocolate that wasn't hot anymore and bolted out as fast as she could without spilling anything.
She put on her robe and took the mugs to the kitchen before going back to Lucas' room. She made an impulsive decision to clean so she quickly changed her clothes and started cleaning around the house, even though she did not need to do so since Lucas had told her repeatedly that he could arrange for the hotel staff to co to clean the house, but she had not relented on that and insisted on doing it herself, so he did not pursue the issue any further.
Jen loaded the washing machine then went to plaited her hair into a long braid before she started cleaning up the house. It was not too hard because both she and Lucas were hardly at the house and they were both adults so it wasn't ssy either.
By the ti she was done cleaning, it was almost noon. She unloaded the dryer and folded the clothes that needed to be folded and hung what was ant to be hanged before she went to take a shower. Because she had sweated she ended up washing her hair again before she started rushing to get dressed.
She didn't even attempt to let her hair air dry so she blow-dried her hair before putting it up in a ssy bun. She went through her clothes in the wardrobe and she looked at her sumr dresses as if she was longing for them.
She shook her head and browsed her collection of light sweaters. When she had been opening the windows earlier she noticed that it had been raining so she knew that it was going to be even colder outside.
She took out a black turtleneck sweater and a pair of light blue jeans. She quickly got dressed as she looked at the ti. She applied so light makeup and her jewellery as well. She was feeling warm in the house and almost forgot to take a coat with her as she was leaving her room.
She went back to her closet and picked out a maroon knee-length trench coat that created a pleasant contrast with the black boots she was wearing.
She picked up her purse and sunglasses before leaving the house. As she was taking the elevator, she called Lucas to tell him that she was leaving the house, and to also check if he was available for lunch because she knew that ergencies happened at work.
"Are you on your way?" Lucas asked as he took off his glasses. He had been working non-stop from the mont he arrived in the building.
"Mmh, I just left the house, I'm on my way to the garage," Jen said as she leaned against the elevator wall.
"Is there anything you feel like eating?" Lucas asked so he could make a reservation.
"Umm, I want seafood for a change," Jen said and walked out of the elevator after it stopped at the garage and the doors slid open.
"Seafood, okay. Let wrap up with things here. Just co to my office once you arrive at the company. I'll tell them to inform the front desk to give you the pass." Lucas said as he thought of a good place that sold seafood.
"Mmh, I'll call you if I run into any trouble," Jen said, and after they talked again for a bit, she hung up and got into the car. She draped the coat on the passenger's seat and dumped the rest of her things there before turning on her car and leaving the hotel parking lot.
The mont she got on the road her vision was blocked by the heavy rain. She sighed as she realised that with rain of this magnitude, it is more likely to cause a lot of traffic. Since she was going to be on the road for a while, she put so music as she carefully drove on the wet roads.
She was finally able to safely arrive at Lewis & Co. after almost an hour. She was currently feeling ravenous, she was feeling so hungry she thought her stomach had started digesting itself. She only had a glass of water from the mont she woke up so the hunger she was feeling was warranted.
She parked the car on the guest parking which unlike the employees parking that was on the basent level, it was outside the building. She put on her coat as she looked outside her window. Even though it was still raining, it was not as heavy as it was earlier.
She reached out for the backseat and took her umbrella and purse and got out of her car. She quickly opened her umbrella and closed her car door, getting a few raindrops on her coat in the process. She hoped that wherever Lucas was taking her the food was delicious. She felt like she toiled to have the al.
