Hope had completely forgotten about all that had happened after spending the intimate night with Lucas.
Until she almost forgot if today she needs to attend an important meeting to welcome the CEO of the company she has been working in.
“That's okay Lucas, anyway I must go, I need to go to work today, I have an important meeting.”
“Oh okay Hope, me too, please take care there, please come back to me when you get home from work.”
As soon as Hope had left this morning, Lucas was sad and kept staring at her from a distance until she left him.
He doesn't want the beautiful moments with Hope to be temporary, he wants to spend his whole life together with Hope.
Hope's innocence and beauty feel unique to Lucas, he intends to take this relationship to go deeper with her, not just the nightstand.
She has touched his heart and completely change his life for the better, Lucas feels slowly the old wounds he feels better after meeting Hope, she just heals him.
Hope is a girl who is very different from many girls he has met before, she is beautiful, sincere, and pure.
Lucas feels attached to her even though they only met last night, but their meeting was very memorable for him.
Lucas will find out more about Hope, and he is sure that she will fall for him and will make be his mind forever.
Hope is getting ready to head to her office soon, Skylar company is the most prestigious company in the USA, and she doesn't want to miss this good chance to completely change her life.
Hope takes herself going to the bathroom, and she looks so messed up.
But she has no time, she must prepare because this is an important day for the arrival of the CEO of the company where she works.
Hope and all of her co-workers are so excited to welcome the CEO of Skylar company.
But as soon as the man walked into the room, Hope was completely taken aback.
Because that man is Lucas Anderson, a man who is the hottest one-night stand with her last night.
Hope feels so ashamed and nervous around him, this makes her blush.
However, Lucas seemed to relax, and he kept conveying significant information to all his employees, including Hope.
“So, since my secretary previously resigned from our company, I appointed Hope Gilbert as my secretary,” Lucas said firmly.
“Me? Yes, I'm ready, Mr. Lucas, thank you so much for the promotion.” Hope to do the handshaking with him, pretend like nothing happened between them yesterday.
Nobody knows about their wild night yesterday, that's only Hope and Lucas know about it.
Their relationship is formal for this time, but that doesn't mean it will dim their sexual tension.
Their turbulent passion for each other already sparks and still ignites now, especially for Lucas, he wants to have her forever.
“Miss Gilbert, you can go to my room in 10 minutes and prepare all the files.” Lucas feels so excited to see Hope.
“Yes, I will go to your room in 10 minutes, Mr. Lucas,” Hope, looks so nervous and heartbeat.
Hope looked rushing, she never thought that her CEO was someone who had slept with her before.
Hope enters Lucas's office room nervous, she feels so worried about anything that will happen later.
She feels so nervous and heartbeat, totally shy to be reunited with Lucas after their unforgettable intimacy.
“Hello, Mr. Lucas, here are some files you need.” Hope is nervous and bites her lips.
“Thank you so much, Miss Hope, and just sit there.”
Lucas asked Hope to sit down and kept staring at her. He suddenly gave her thick paper to make her sign it.
“Please sign this,” Lucas commands her.
“What's this?” Hope reading it carefully.
Finally, Hope got an answer for all that had happened.
“Hope, I know you very well even though we just met, so sign the contract.”
“Marriage contracts?”
“Yes, that's right, I want you to sign it and I will provide you and give you some of my property if you want to be my wife.”
Hope felt like this was all a dream, but she never thought that this would happen.
Her one-night stand yesterday with Lucas is like an accident for her, and she intends to avoid taking it too seriously.
She still feels deep trauma from her previous relationship with her ex, Andrew.
“I'm so sorry, Mr. Lucas, but I think I will think about your offer, and I will let you know when I'm ready for that.”
“I will always wait for your answer Hope and I love you, I want to heal your wounds from your previous relationship.”
Hope was shocked, and then she kept staring at Lucas.
She felt shocked after learning that Lucas knows what she feels current.
“Thank you so much, Mr. Lucas, but I will think about it, and excuse me, I will go to help other co-workers.”
Lucas can't stop thinking about Hope, her beauty, smart and strong personality makes him fall deeper into her.
Hope returned to her room, closed her room tightly, and thought about Lucas's offer.
She feels so sad, she doesn't know if maybe she will get hurt because of her love again, this feels so painful for her.
So, she thinks the best decision to heal her heart is to reject many guys as possible, as that will make her feel better.
Hope's heart has died from the betrayal that Andrew has done to her before.
Hope can't forget Andrew completely and still remember their beautiful moments together, they are dating since high school too, that's a long time for her.
But suddenly Hope hears her phone ringing, that's from her mom.
“Hope, your father was in a car accident, let's hurry to the Aspen hospital, he needs surgery right now! Otherwise, he will get infected and that will lead to death.”
“Yes, mom, I will go to the hospital.”
Hope is sobbing uncontrollably she can't stop thinking about her dad, and this makes her sad.
She immediately went to Lucas's room to ask for help and made an excuse to make he will let her go to the hospital to check on her dad.
“Hope you are okay?” Lucas holds her so tight.
“Okay, I will take your offer, I want to sign the contract.” Hope looks so sad.
“Oh okay, here you are, just quickly sign there and tell me all your problems, I will help you because you will be my wife soon.” Lucas shocked.
“My dad looks like a car accident, I need to go to the hospital for his surgery and treatment.” Hope is sobbing uncontrollably.
“Yes, but let me come with you, let's go immediately with my vehicle.”
But Lucas is not alone, he also takes his assistants who will help Hope's parents with her dad's surgery and treatment.
Because he just wants to spend his time together with Hope.
Even though the situation is getting tenser, Lucas feels so happy because Hope has accepted his offer and agreed to the contract of marriage from him.
Lucas and Hope immediately went to Aspen's hospital, with two of his assistants, to see the condition of Hope's dad, who was in a coma and urgently needed surgery.l
