Chapter 392 Attacked
Chapter 392 Attacked
Luke says these things involuntarily, and he is interrupted by Kate by saying he is disgusting. He is also very depressed and complains that he talks too much.
“Sorry.”
Luke cannot find any other words to respond except this.
Kate doesn’t respond to Luke’s apology either, and they fall into awkward silence. Before this, Luke feels that the ambiguous and proper light just make the atmosphere more anxious.
They seem to be in the same situation. There are a lot of words stuck in their throats, but there is no way to speak out frankly. Although they are close, the distance between their hearts is actually as far away as the two ends of the earth.
Luke doesn’t know how long the silence lasts, and he thinks he cannot let things go like this, so he wants to say something.
“Sorry.”
After he thinks over and over again, Luke still repeats this sentence.
Kate seems to be amused by Luke’s embarrassment. Of course, her smile only lasts for a second, and then she says directly, “You have apologized for countless times, and I already said I forgive you.”
But Luke doesn’t think that Kate really forgives him. But he still nods and smiles awkwardly.
“Oh well, I bring you this.”
Luke pushes a large bouquet of roses on the table.
“Huh? I think it is the decoration. You bring it for me?”
It seems that she finally finds something to talk about, and her tone seems a little lighter, but when she sees that flower is red rose, she is hesitant to take it.
Even Kate is not an exquisite girl, she stammers for a long while. She looks up at Luke who is also embarrassed and says, “Hey, why do you pick red roses?”
Sure enough, she asks about this.
But even for Luke who brings this bunch of flowers cannot explain why he does this, or he doesn’t want to explain it too clearly.
“This kind of flower should not be given indiscriminately. Although I don’t know much about it, I still have common sense.”
Kate’s face swells because of shyness, but nobody can know that she is angry or she is shy.
At this moment, they fall into silence again. They are both unclear existence to each other. Even a sentence or an action, one of them wants to understand its true meaning urgently, but often the other one can’t answer it.
In a way, they really fit each other to the extreme.
But such constant silence cannot last forever.
Luke is about to lie, so he smiles and says, “Oh, I don’t remember it. Maybe other flowers in the shop are sold out.”
What a stupid lie. How can there only be red roses left in a flower shop? The far-fetched explanation is not convincing at all.
But Kate believes it miraculously, she nods and says, “Okay...”
Maybe Kate doesn’t think much about it, or maybe Kate thinks that red roses are indeed a good choice. As for the reason, it may be good for what red roses really stand for.
Then they begin silent again.
Kate sighs awkwardly, “I was going to have a drink with Claire. Now that we are done for our own matters, I’ll take a step first.”
Luke is a little bit reluctant, and even if he suffers so silently, he prefers to stay like this, but Kate’s words are justified and there is no reason to refuse.
“Okay, please remember to contact me and Claire. We can hang out more.” Luke also relieves.
“I will.”
Kate goes out of the room like she escapes from it. When Kate leaves, Luke finds that the roses he brings for her are still on the table and not been taken away.
He thinks about it now. Red rose as an apology gift is not appropriate. Luke is uncomfortable, but he convinces himself not to care about it. Anyway, Kate forgives him already.
When Luke is in a daze, there is a loud noise outside the room. He thinks it may be Kate who turns back to get the forgotten rose.
Luke hurriedly walks out of the room to see, but he finds that there are only pub waiters in the hallway, probably where the voice comes from.
But Luke feels a little uneasy. When he walks out of the pub after checking out, he still feels it.
Luke parks the car on the side of the road and looks at his watch. He wants to go to Howard Group to talk to Leo. It is better if he could ask him out for a drink.
It’s just that Leo who recovers from his illness and suddenly becomes a good, family-oriented man may refuse him. Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
When Luke’s hand just touches the handle, a black rod-shaped object suddenly attacks behind him with a noise like whistling wind.
Luke’s neck feels cold, and his uneasy premonition agitates. Actually he is alert when the shadow behind him reflects from the window of the car.
Bang!
There is a baseball bat hit from the air, with great strength and speed, which shatters the window glass directly.
Luke, who is the target of the attack, dodges to the side.
Luke looks back and sees a man in a racing suit and a baseball cap who carries a baseball bat in his hand. And that man just looks at him with red eyes.
Luke sees many young street hooks like him before, but no one has the courage to challenge him.
“Do you want to die?”
Luke squints and doesn’t fear of the weapon in the youth’s hands at all.
The young man sneers and his eyes are cold. He says sternly, “I didn’t expect that a rich man like you can respond well, but you would regret if you look down on others.”
The youth does not want to talk to Luke anymore. He lifts the baseball bat and hit Luke’s jaw.
Luke steps back involuntarily, but bumps into the car immediately.
The baseball bat brings a strong airflow which makes Luke’s face pricking. His mind is empty, and he tries to tilt his head towards back.
Hoop!
A gust of wind brushes Luke’s head like a knife, but it just failed to hurt him.
It is time for Luke to fight back. Before the youth take the baseball bat back, he rushes to the youth at a very fast speed and punches his lower abdomen.
The youth is in pain but he stubbornly does not make any painful cry.
Luke pushes the youth away, and then he kicks violently towards the young man’s abdomen where just been attacked.
But Luke never expects that this little bastard really has some skills, he deflects his body to avoid Luke’s kick, and then he hits out baseball bat to smash Luke immediately.
