Chapter 437

Mavis went to the CEO's office to ask Luke why he changed his mind.

Before the meeting, he had said that they were going to sign the agreement with Vivi Group.

She did not expect to see that heartbreaking scene at the door.

Mavis wanted to laugh, but she felt something stuck in her throat. It was uncomfortable, and at the same time, it felt like it was burning.

She had fallen in love with Luke the moment she laid her eyes on him.

Mavis had returned to the country after graduating from an internationally renowned design college.

Many large corporations wanted to recruit her, but she chose Crawford Industries that was on the brink of bankruptcy only because Luke was the general manager. She noticed Luke's infinite potential since then.

Indeed, he did not disappoint her. He managed to turn the tables, expand the business, wrested it from his family's control, and renamed it T Corporation.

The more she interacted with Luke, the more she was smitten by his character. Her love toward him became stronger, like a flower bud hidden in a dark corner that could never bloom but could never wither either.

Luke might not know that Mavis had a crush on him, but she found herself lucky that the man did not have any scandals involving other female socialites or young celebrities.

She was satisfied that he had been keeping his reputation untarnished.

She felt that if she kept on doing what she was doing, he would eventually notice her feelings toward him.

Her characteristics, ideals, and worldviews were similar to his. She thought that there would be no other woman more suitable for him than her.

Unexpectedly, about six years ago, he was carrying a pair of twin babies and smiling blissfully. He told her that he had become a father.

The news came like a bolt out of the blue.
