Chapter 1937
Caprice was caught off guard by the text.
She did not expect Moses to be waiting for her outside.
She replied, "Moses, sorry | didn't reply earlier. | have something else to do later, | can't have lunch with you." Moses replied almost instantly, "Alright. Are you free tonight?"Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Nope. Let's talk when the semester starts."
“Alright. See you."
When Caprice put away her phone, she noticed Liam had been watching her from the side.
He managed to catch a glimpse of the conversation. "Who is he?"
Caprice innocently assumed he was just asking out of curiosity. She said, " He’s a senior of mine at university. He also hired me for my first summer job."
Amomentary silence later, Liam asked, "Why is he waiting for you outside?"
No one should be able to enter Carter Tech District at this hour.
Feeling strange, Caprice asked, "He came earlier. You didn't know?"
"What's his name?"
“Moses Stewart. He said Carter Tech District is interested in one of his projects, so he came to discuss the details with you." YON?
Liam knew nothing about the man.
Small investment projects usually never needed to go through him, so it might be the marketing manager who was in charge of liaising with this man.
The thought was placed aside as he held Caprice's hand and walked out. However, when he passed by the window that had an overview of the parking lot, he had a glance at the cars down there. It was still working hours, so many people were moving around the building.
Caprice did not want to be the center of attention and did not want to put Liam in an embarrassing position, so she pulled her hand away from his and stayed behind him.
Liam stopped and turned around to her, confused.
Caprice said, "If people see us holding hands, you'll be the topic of the day or even the week." Liam pursed his lips and continued forward.
Caprice kept a two meters distance from him as she followed him out.
As they walked out of the building, even when Caprice was intentionally drawing distance from Liam, the employees could not help but stare at them.
Caprice followed Liam to the parking lot. The parking lot had no people and it was quiet. Liam strode forward to his car without stopping.
Caprice had to run to catch up to him, but she accidentally bumped into his sturdy back when he stopped all of a sudden.
"Ouch!"
Liam turned around. He held her waist with one hand and stroked her forehead with the other. Caprice frowned at him. "Why did you stop?"
Liam looked at her flatly. "I'm waiting for you."
Caprice was silenced.
If he wanted to wait for her, why did he stride so fast in the first place?
Fortunately, his stroke was relieving and comforting, to the point that Caprice could feel goosebumps on her skin. She grunted and decided to spare him this time.
Liam pursed his lips and then said, "Still hurts?"
Intentionally or not, he sounded extremely alluring when he spoke.
He even lowered his head closer to her.
Caprice could see his handsome and flawless face up close. His deep eyes and those thick brows landed a critical hit on her heart.
