Chapter 453

Mavis was mentally strong.

In the face of Luke's piercing gaze, she kept a cold smile on her face, even though her chest felt tense.

She knew how shrewd Luke was.

She dared not lie to him, so she admitted it graciously. "Yes, Mr. Crawford. When I sat in your car the last time, I went to the convenience store and bought some lingerie, but when I got home, one piece was missing. I didn't dare to ask you about it. After all, it is lingerie, and I felt awkward..."

The always capable and cold Mavis showed a rare feminine look of embarrassment when she spoke of it.

Seeing Mavis admitting it generously without the slightest concealment, Luke was less suspicious.

If there had been any seed of doubt, it was now gone.

He even thought it was funny that Bianca had made such a fuss about an unidentified piece of women's clothing.

His woman was good in everything but possessive in her feelings. However, he loved her and doted on her. He could let her have her way and tolerate everything about her.

Mavis had worked for him for years. Luke knew how good she was at her job.

Ms. Laviere was one of the top executives in the company who had generated the most wealth for the company with her dedication to work. However, she did not seem interested in men and was very deferential to him.

It never occurred to Luke that his female subordinate had any other thoughts for him.

"I see. So it was an oversight." Luke nodded in an enlightened way.

Mavis felt relieved when she heard him say that.

"I hope you don't make the same mistake again, Ms. Laviere. I hate having other people's personal belongings in my car, especially women's lingerie. That can create misunderstandings."
