Chapter 3377 Composed Even When A Beautiful Woman Throws Herself At Him

A flash of disgust flickered in Luke's eyes. He was completely fed up with Hera's relentless pestering.

"If you have something to say, just say it here." Unlike other men, he did not address her politely as 'Ms. Sanchez'.

His tone was so indifferent, and he did not even bother to call her by name.

Hera's smile did not falter. She thought he was only acting this distance because there were so many people around, and he could not openly show his affection for her.

Hera replied in a soft voice, "It's something important, and they won't be able to help. Come with me."

Luke frowned and remained motionless.

People around them grew envious.

Even if Luke did not actually have a romantic interest in her, just helping Hera would be enough to earn points in their boss' eyes. Their jealousy turned into playful teasing.

"The boss' girlfriend's asking for help. Just go already. What's with the cold act? It's no fun," teased one of them.

Others chimed in, “Yeah, seriously. Just go. Who are you trying to impress with that attitude?"

Luke's sharp gaze swept across the crowd. Instantly, those snickering shut their mouths. No one dared to say another word.

Hera slightly furrowed her brows when she saw his reaction. Why did this all feel so familiar?

He could effortlessly silence a crowd with just a glance.

Her thoughts drifted back to her teenage years. He seemed just like that man who had a domineering presence.

Previously, if a group of troublemakers caused chaos at the school gate, all it took was Luke stepping forward. His sheer presence was enough to intimidate anyone, no matter how many there were.

Hera's expression softened. It was as though she was transported back to high school, looking at the boy she was once in love with.
