Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 635 I Did Put It into Action
Nina handed Sylvie a tissue in time, giving Lucien a despised look at the same time.
That's it?
That's Lucien's way of flirting with girls?
Was he trying to choke her assistant to death?
Lucien was full of innocence and hastily apologised to Sylvie, "Sorry..."
Sylvie also hurriedly owed a polite smile and said, "Nah, I was being careless."
Is there something wrong with this person's fundamental values?
She had just thrown up her hands to approve Cameron's revenge on Jillian, and he was calling her cute?
Nina tugged at Cameron, "Come with me to the bathroom."
Cameron immediately understood that she wanted to give the two of them a chance to be alone, so he got up with her, just as he wanted to be alone with Nina. Sylvie was not expecting Nina and Cameron to suddenly go to the bathroom in pairs and leave her in a room with Lucien, whom she didn't know at all.
It's so awkward that she's tempted to use the bathroom as an excuse to disappear.
And something didn't feel right; when she thought about it, wasn't this precisely like a blind date?
Wasn't it possible that the boyfriend Nina had told her she'd been introduced to was the same Lucien in front of her?
Sylvie was shocked by her thoughts and looked up at Lucien.
Lucien was thinking of an excuse to talk to Sylvie when he saw her suddenly glaring at him, he was startled, and after a few seconds of staring at her, he raised his hand to his face and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Do I have something on my face?"
"No." Sylvie shook her head and withdrew her gaze.
This was outrageous.
Sylvie quickly dismissed her suspicions because she didn't think she and Lucien were a good match; she must be overthinking it.
Lucien was now one of Riverside City's most sought-after bachelors, rich and powerful, while she was just a minor assistant.
In the few seconds, she had taken a good look at Lucien's face, which was angular, bright and elegant; even someone like her, who was used to seeing all kinds of handsome men in the entertainment industry though he was good-looking. It's the kind of good look that one replaces approachable, unlike Cameron's cool and aloof face.
As for herself, she thought she was not bad, but since she spent her days working next to such a gorgeous woman, she had given up on herself and thought she was pretty standard.
She tapered off again and kept her head down as she ate, thinking of her ordinary.
After a while, she noticed Lucien not moving his chopsticks and wondered, "Why aren't you eating?"
It was getting late after Andrew's matter. Wasn't Lucien hungry? She was already hungry.
Lucien smiled, "I'm not really hungry."
Lucien was watching her eat; he thought she looked so adorable when she was eating. He had no time caring about his food!
But after the experience of scaring her by saying she was cute, he was much more reserved this time and just said he wasn't hungry.
If he had only found her attractive in the lift earlier, after a few seconds of eye-to-eye, he confirmed his feelings that he liked her, wanted to pursue her, get her, and live with her.
He had previously laughed at Cameron for falling in love with Nina at first sight, which he used to think didn't exist in this world; how could anyone fall in love at first sight?
Now he, too, is caught up in such a haunted state of mind, and the words to describe his state of mind at the moment are like a real slap in the face.
Sylvie didn't say anything else and kept her head down and ate her food after Lucien said he was not really hungry.
After realising that she and Lucien were incompatible, she calmed down and treated him as someone she didn't know very well, not looking at him or speaking to him purposely.
But Lucien, a man of many facets, would not let things get cold between them. He took his chopsticks and ate slowly, starting the conversation with the usual questions about what time her flight with Nina was tomorrow.
Having confirmed his intentions, Lucien was in no hurry.
Now that he had his prey, all he needed was to plan how to get her firmly into his territory.
Sylvie was not averse to Lucien. She has already discarded the infinite possibilities between her and Lucien and thinking that he was Nina and Cameron's best friend, she answered whatever he asked.
They had a cheerful conversation, but she didn't know that Lucien already knew almost everything about her from these chit-chats.
For example, she likes food, and her family is ordinary, her parents are ordinary people, not yet retired, and still struggling with their jobs.
She doesn't have any ambition and just wants to do her job well as Nina's assistant.
For example, she likes to read novels and catch up on all kinds of dramas, likes handsome men and women, and likes small animals, but because of the nature of her work, she has to go everywhere with Nina, so she cannot keep her pets.
However, when she has time, she volunteers to rescue stray animals, which makes Lucien's heart incredibly soft; such a girl must be kind and gentle at heart.
Lucien lifted a hand to his hair, feeling the need to primp his hair and dress appropriately; Sylvie and Nina met handsome men and women from the showbiz everyday. He needed to be more stylish. He'd never paid much attention to this before; his dress style was mainly business-like and modest, not overly concerned with type and pattern, wondering if she would replace him a bit old-fashioned. Nina sat on Cameron's lap with his arm around her waist in the next booth.
She hadn't gone to the bathroom, and as soon as they left, they went next door; they had the whole restaurant to themselves for the night anyway, and they wouldn't be seen anywhere. Nina leaned into Cameron's arms and said with some concern, "I wonder how the two of them are getting on?"
"Don't worry, Lucien and I are both people who will act on our goals as soon as we set them, and since he's interested in Sylvie, he'll take control of the situation." Cameron knew Lucien well enough. Nina grunted, "How come I didn't see anyone take any action back then? Wasn't it always me who did it?"
He talks all day about how he liked her too, but she was the one who took the initiative?
Cameron laughed at her sultry look, hugged her tightly and whispered, "When Manny Bowers stopped me and tried to beat me up, I was gonna kick his ass, but I caught a glimpse of you, so I pretended to be helpless."
Cameron leaned in close to her and asked with a smile, "Does that count as me taking action?"
If he hadn't pretended to be weak, she wouldn't have come forward to beat up Manny and save him, and they wouldn't have interacted with each other in that case.00☐☐☐☐☐☐
