His Eagle Eyes on Me

"Did you come to Taronia for Lucas?" Caspian asked

"Not entirely. Even if Lucas wasn't here, I still would have come."

Caspian nodded. "I've known him for so many years, and I've only ever heard him mention one woman."

Ivy's eyebrows arched. "And who is that?"

Caspian continued, "His former nanny. She passed away, and he dragged me to church to pray for her one day."

A bitter look crossed Ivy's face.

Caspian went on, "He was quite emotional that day. He'd been drinking. Once he sobered up, he didn't remember any of it."

"So he prayed for me before..." she murmured.

"What?"

Ivy shook her head with a smile. "It's nothing! I just find it hard to believe that Lucas, who doesn't seem superstitious, would pray for someone who's passed away."

Caspian chuckled. "Hahaha! He had too much to drink that day. While I was helping him home, he saw the church and refused to go any farther. So we went inside to pray. I asked him who it was for, and he said it was for his former nanny."

"Oh... He's really kind if he is willing to pray for a former nanny."

"Well, I've never heard him mention any other woman in all the time I've known him. He might not be swayed by Ms. Feake because she's too mature for his liking."

Ivy mused, "Don't most young guys like mature women?"

"Not all young guys are into mature women! Although I personally prefer mature women, Lucas might be into your type. It's hard to say!" Caspian said.

Ivy's cheeks turned rosy. "My type?"

Caspian grinned. "The innocent type."

"Are you sure about that?"

Caspian shook his head. "Not entirely. Sometimes you look innocent, and other times, you have a mischievous charm. Anyway, you're definitely not the same type as Ms. Feake."

"If I were to wear a dress like Ms. Feake, I might look more womanly!"

Caspian burst into laughter. "Maybe, if you didn't say a single word. When you talk, any womanly charm you have disappears." Ivy huffed.

"All right, all right. Let me drive you back to the office," Caspian said.

"Didn't you drink? How about I drive instead?" Ivy suggested.

"Can you drive? All right then. You drive."

They switched seats, with Ivy taking the driver's seat. She took a deep breath and said, "Caspian, I did get my driver's license in Aryadelle, but I don't drive much. Thank you for trusting me. I'll drive cautiously to make sure I get you safely to the company." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Caspian's hands on the seatbelt started shaking. "Are you sure? Maybe I should drive, after all."

"No way. You drank, so it's dangerous for you to drive."

With that said, she started the engine, and the car began moving forward in a wobbly manner.

At the restaurant, Missy poured Lucas a glass of juice before brushing her legs deliberately against his underneath the table.

Lucas immediately moved his legs away. "Ms. Feake, is there something you would like to say to me alone?"

Missy narrowed her eyes seductively

and smiled, do have something to

say to you Lucas, I recently broke up and have been in a bad mood. It's quite a surprising coincidence that you look kind of like myo ex-boyfriend."

What do you want?" Lucas asked warily.
