chapter 26

She didn't know if it was right, but she felt a little special when he said it.Her eyes automatically lowered as she blushed."That...I-I see…"Eric's gaze was fixated on hers and her varying expressions. He felt like he could observe her for a long time which was a surprise to him.Lucy suddenly didn't know how to face him. She looked at herself on her mobile screen and found that she was blushing too much.Ahhh... don't be so red.What if he gets suspicious?To divert her mind from Eric's innocent flirting attack, she got busy doing some random stuff on her phone.Lucy felt that she hadn't dropped a message to Luca for a long time.She quickly typed a message.'Sis! I am missing you sooooo much. How is your case going? Are the people too dangerous? Hope you are safe.Good news! I got a job! When will you be back? Wuwu, at least call me for just five minutes. I have so much to talk to you. Hehe and especially about a Godly Handsome man I just met. Please, please call me soon. Love you.'At the same time, Eric also received a message from Frank.'Negative, Boss. Lucy Hale is unaware of anything related to Luca Hale's involvement with you.''Hm.'He put his phone back and saw Lucy typing a message. His gaze squinted as he saw Luca Hale's name."Messaging your sister?""En! It's been too long since we have talked. I hope she sees my message and calls me back. Better that she returns!" She grinned. "I can't wait for her to get back."Eric asked, "What if she never returns?"Lucy paused and looked at him questioningly. "What?""Isn't she working on a case related to some...Mafia? She is not responding to you because I feel that she is already dead. Mafias don't leave people alive once they are caught."Lucy blankly stared at him for a while. Then she said, "Stop the car."Eric blinked his eyes."I said stop the car."Eric's eyes slightly widened to see Lucy's gaze shining in tears."I said stop the car! I want to get out of here."Eric didn't understand. "Why? We are still far from your college."She gritted her teeth. "I don't want to ride with you anymore. H-how can you say that about Sis Luca? Who gave you the right?"The driver gulped.Speaking that way to Boss…Eric was utterly taken aback. He had no clue what went wrong."Stop the car!"Eric glanced at him and the driver stopped the car. Lucy immediately got out.As she dashed away, Eric kept staring at her trembling figure running with all her strength.
