"Lucas! What are we going to do with so much food?!"
I looked at all of the silver platters in front of us with pure shock! It seed like he wasn’t joking when he said that he was willing to order the entire nu!
Lucas let out a small chuckle, "What do you an? We eat it, of course!" He leaned over the table and opened a few of the lids, releasing steam as he uncovered the delectable dishes.
My stomach nearly jumped out of my body from excitent. The food looked just as good as it did in the pictures and slled even better than I could have imagined. "Just by the appearance, I feel like they deserve at least half of those awards listed!"
Lucas laughed but nodded, "Yes, I completely agree. The mont the first dish was opened, my stomach growled as if I hadn’t eaten in days! Co, let’s dig in before it gets cold."
I imdiately went to cut off a piece of the juicy steak in front of . I wasn’t exactly sure of what sort of cut it was, but it looked amazing. Lucas cut himself a small piece of a different steak and filled the rest of his plate with various side dishes and salads.
For the first few minutes, we sat in complete silence, simply enjoying the delicious food in front of us. I was just about to ask Lucas to pass the small salad that was on his side of the table when we both froze in our seats.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
I froze in my seat and looked over at Lucas. The banging on the door was so fierce I felt like whoever it was would break the door down.
"Wait here, I’ll go see who it is." Lucas’s eyes darkened slightly as he stood up from his seat and made his way over to the door.
"OPEN THE DOOR, NOW!" A very angry yet familiar voice shouted from the other side of the door, causing Lucas to pause and look at .
I frowned.
What is Christian doing here? Is he looking for ?
Anger and sadness welled up inside of .
He’s probably upset that I didn’t show up for the sex appointnt he set up.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. If I hadn’t arrived early, I wouldn’t have known that I was just a form of entertainnt for him.
I looked up at Lucas with all of the anger and pain I could muster and shook my head. I didn’t want to see or hear from Christian right now.
Lucas nodded and walked over to answer the door before Christian broke it down.
How did he know I was here? Is he tracking ?
I started to feel even more anger bubble up inside of . My cold eyes traveled to the door, though I couldn’t see anything except for Lucas’s back. He finally opened the door, keeping it barely open enough to poke his head out.
"It’s you! Have you no sha?!" Christian roared again.
I instantly flared up!
No! It’s you who has no sha!
It took everything I had in not to walk over there right now and slap him across the face. I just knew that if I showed my face, he wouldn’t leave alone, and I didn’t have the energy to deal with him right now.
Thankfully, Lucas maintained a very cool front.
"Mr. Vittoria? What are you doing here?" he asked with curiosity.
"Where is she?! What did you do to her?" Christian yelled with ferocity. I could see Lucas struggling to keep the door closed, using his foot to act as a wedge.
So he really does keep tabs on . Disgusting!
I placed my fork down, no longer having an appetite to eat. I glared at the door, trying to figure out why Christian ca looking for .
Does he plan on taking to his room and having his way with ?
As angry as I was, I couldn’t picture Christian ever doing that. There has never been a ti when he forced himself on .
"Mr. Vittoria, I’m not sure who you’re looking for, but your actions are coming off as slightly aggressive. Please leave." Lucas’s words brought out of my thoughts. I began to feel a little guilty. If it wasn’t for , Christian wouldn’t be so aggressive towards Lucas right now.
"Where is she?! What did you do to her?" Christian responded even more aggressively. I couldn’t see him due to the way the door was positioned, but I could picture how angry he looked right now.
What did Lucas do to ?! He comforted in my ti of need! Brought to a safe space to allow to regain myself! He’s been nothing but kind to !
I hated hearing the accusatory and aggressive tone that Christian used when he spoke to Lucas. He made it sound like Lucas kidnapped and locked in here against my will!
"Who are you looking for? I don’t have anyone in my room," Lucas said, remaining calm. Compared to Lucas, Christian seed like a mad dog, ready to snap at everything.
"Don’t act dumb. I saw you carry her into your room. Where is Leslie?!" He asked angrily.
If you saw being carried into this room, then you also must have seen crying in the stairwell. Convenient that you didn’t co at that ti!
My hands were starting to shake from the amount of anger I was feeling.
"Mr. Vittoria. For the last ti, there’s no one in my room, so please respect my personal space and leave. Though I must ask, why are you so interested in the second Miss of the Moresi family? Shouldn’t you be more attentive towards your future wife instead?"
Lucas’s words caused to freeze. As angry as I was, the thought of Christian being intimate with Morgan made my stomach turn. There was sothing deep inside of that still clung to him.
Is this what it ans to have loved soone? To still feel this way even after they did sothing so horrible to you?
My eyes began to water. I only had one wish: to wake up from this horrible nightmare. To wake up in a world where I actually ant sothing to him.
