Chapter 486
He could not quite explain what he was feeling, but he just felt it was not safe for Corinne to be there alone.
Lucas turned around and asked her, “Do you have my number?”
Corinne nodded. “Yes, I’ve saved your number.”
“Alright. Before I return, you can call me if there’s anything.”
“Alright, Mister Lucas.”
Only then did Lucas truly walk off, and his tall figure disappeared into the crowd who were toasting each other.
Rosie and Anya were chatting on the stairs when they saw Lucas walking in with Corinne and showing concern for her. Both of them were very uncomfortable with it.
Anya put on an insincere smile. “It looks like Lucas is quite concerned for Corinne! The jacket on her shoulders is the one I gifted him a few days ago!”
She initially bought that jacket for Jeremy, but he did not accept it. She was very dejected, but she felt it was a waste to throw it away; so she gave it to her brother.
Her brother and Jeremy were almost the same size anyway, so he could not notice it.
However, when Anya saw the jacket draping over Corinne’s shoulders, she felt it was an eyesore!
Corinne smiled. “I don’t think I’m the one who can’t survive without a man. Aren’t you the one being hysterical now for failing to be a man’s partner?”
Rosie gritted her teeth in anger. “You-”
She truly could not swallow her anger, so she grabbed a piece of cake from the dessert table and wanted to throw it at Corinne’s face!
Seeing that, Anya quickly stopped her best friend. “Rosie, don’t do that!”
Rosie was in a terrible mood because she failed to become Lucas’s partner, so she already had a lot of red wine earlier. If she lost control and created a big commotion because she was drunk, things would not end well.
