As Jen walked to the library she carefully thought about what happened the previous day. She was really hoping that there was a possibility that she was not seen by Tyler, but then a random memory of how Lucas was waving at an 'acquaintance' surfaced and she stopped in her tracks.

She did not even care that the other students were in full view of her peculiar behaviour before she buried her face in her hands in embarra.s.sment.

"He definitely saw it. I'm sure he saw it" Jen said and made a U-turn to the parking lot. She was absolutely sure that she would not be able to study anything and she would just end up wasting her time in the library.

As she walked towards the parking lot, she took out her phone and dialled Lucas' number. She knew he was coming home late and she did not have the patience to wait until later so she decided that she would just go to his office. Lucas didn't take too long to pick up the phone and picked it up after three rings.

"h.e.l.lo?" Lucas said.

"Lucas," Jen started not bothering to reciprocate the greeting.

"Yes," Lucas answered with a smile. He was in the middle of a meeting so everyone saw how his demeanour changed once he picked up the phone.

"Are you in your office?" Jen asked unlocking her car.

"Yes, are you here?" Lucas asked.

"No, but I'm coming," Jen said as she climbed into the car and shut the car door.

"Oh? Is something up?" Lucas asked his smile growing wider.

"Mmh, did you have lunch?" Jen asked.

"Not yet" Lucas answered. He knew she changed the topic deliberately.

"Are you in the mood for anything?" Jen asked as she turned on her car. Lucas could hear all her movements through the phone.

"Seafood," Lucas said and heard Jen hum for a bit before it was quiet.

"Jen?" he called when she didn't say anything.

"I want steak," Jen said leaving Lucas at a loss for words.

"Okay?" Lucas answered confused.

"I'll bring steak, you'll eat it right?" Jen asked. Lucas closed his eyes and sighed. He figured that she must be mad about something.

"Mmh, then I'll have steak" Lucas replied not seeing the point in arguing with her about food.

"Good, I'll be there in about an hour," Jen said and hung up the call. Lucas closed his eyes briefly and opened them to look at his phone once more. He wondered if he did something wrong or if someone else annoyed her and she just needed to vent.

He couldn't get rid of the nagging feeling that he was the one that will be getting a tongue las.h.i.+ng from Jen. He will just have to wait and see then.

"Continue, what are you waiting for?" Lucas said as he looked at the person who was doing the presentation.

"Ah yes," the lady said and switched the slides. Before she said anything else, she was interrupted by Lucas again.

"Be quick. I want to wrap this up in an hour" Lucas said and leaned back on the chair he was sitting on. This meant that the thirty-minute window she initially had turned into a ten-minute window. 

The woman really wanted to cry but she did not have any tears to do so. The people who had to do presentations after her, felt even worse because they would have to brush through so many details and would be able to talk about them when asked explicitly.

David felt an impending headache coming up and messaged Michael to come to the meeting as soon as he arrived. He felt like delegating the work that would come from Lucas brus.h.i.+ng over the details.

Jen was completely oblivious to the chaos that she had just caused as she drove to a restaurant that was very popular for its steak and even had a three-star Michelin rating. She ordered the food as she drank the juice she ordered. The waiter kept asking her if she would be eating it immediately and if not they had a delivery service that would ensure that the food would still be fresh once it arrived.

After being pestered relentlessly, Jen finally relented and agreed to pay for the delivery but she increased her order from two to ten baffling the waiter. How did it get to ten?

Jen increased the order because she didn't have to be the one carrying the food anymore and she remembered that there were Dave and Michael and the six secretaries that always looked busy whenever she went to Lucas' office. 

She would have bought food for the entire floor but the restaurant was not a fast-food restaurant in the first place so she chose not to be too demanding. As she looked around, she felt like she should really open a branch of her own restaurant in City X. Once she goes home, she'll have to talk to Alex about it, and if they should consider doing business with L. L Hotels.

After sitting at the restaurant for some time while pondering about what else she should do in the future, her thoughts were interrupted by the waiter who came to her table once more.

"Excuse me, miss?" the waiter called Jen who was staring out the window at the busy street.

"What is it?" Jen asked with raised eyebrows.

"Where do we deliver the food to?" the waiter asked as they were done with preparations.

"Are you done?" Jen asked.

"Yes," the waiter confirmed.

"Good, let's go to Lewis & Co," Jen said as she stood up from her chair.

"Eh?" the waiter said after pausing thinking that he heard her wrong.

"What are you waiting for? Aren't you going to tell them the address?" Jen asked with furrowed eyebrows.

"Lewis & Co?" the waiter asked to confirm and only left when Jen nodded in affirmation. Jen also made her way out of the restaurant and saw the delivery truck parked in front of the restaurant. She tilted her head as she wondered whether they would cook on the way to the company.

The thought itself made her laugh at how silly she was being. She unlocked her car and got in before starting it. She paused briefly as she thought of how exuberant the delivery fees were.

She looked at the truck once more before smiling and driving off as the truck behind her followed her carefully from behind.
