chapter 9

Lucy looked down and widened her eyes at the creases. "Oh, I am so sorry!""You ruined his perfectly ironed clothes."She bit her lip. "I am sorry. I just wanted some support to get up."Eric glanced at Laura's group. This whole time Laura was staring dumbfounded at Lucy who was carelessly talking to the boss aka CEO of the EW Industries. It felt as if his status didn't matter to her at all. And Eric didn't seem to be furious at her behavior.His glance shifted at Lucy's elbow and knees where she had scraped. His eyes ever so slightly narrowed."You are hurt."Lucy glanced down. "Oh, this?" She waved her hand, "It will be fine. I have fallen a lot of times like this hehe. I am used to it now."Ahhhhh….he checked on my injuries!! He is so caring. Eric not only has a Godly handsome face but a Godly kind heart too.En, en! I am loving you more and more now.Eric glanced at Laura again. Something suddenly felt oppressive to her in the atmosphere."Lot of times?"Laura stiffened and she gulped.How can she say that she tricks her into her traps to embarrass her?"Hm? Oh yeah. But it's no biggie," Lucy shrugged it off.He calmly retracted his gaze. Then he looked at Lucy again, "Frank will take you to the hospital."Frank was shocked.Huh? Me? Weren't we talking about cutting off her hands?Lucy was taken aback. "No, no they are just scratches. I have ointment in my home.""He will."Eric spoke with finality. Matter over. Lucy couldn't protest.But at the gate, there was only one car and Eric had to return to the company.Frank respectfully said, "Boss, I will call for another car."Eric plainly said, "Hospital first.""..."Lucy didn't get the gist so she happily exclaimed. "Thank you Godly- I mean Boss!"Frank gave an icy glare.You should have rejected it! How dare you trouble the ultimate boss into taking you to the hospital?At the hospital, after Lucy's wounds were treated, she came to the reception. Her eyes popped out of her sockets reading a small piece of paper - the bill.She tremblingly raised her head and sheepishly grinned at Frank. "Assistant Boss. I-I don't have to pay this bill right?"
