Chapter 93
'He's
e's awake.'
Just two words. Yet, they tormented Sylvie.
For two days, she tried not think of them. Because he was awake shouldn't mean trouble. But her life has been so perfect for the past four months, she feared Lancelot might finally be the storm in it..
As she walked out of the conference room with the three investors, she willed the thought to go away, into the dark recess of her mind. This deal was important, and she couldn't allow thoughts of Lancelot ruin it. "Thank you for your time, Ms. Price. So far, we're impressed." One of the men said, his tone rough from obvious years of being a grumpy boss. But Sylvie could tell he was truly impressed. "should be Ish I be the one thanking you for giving me the chance to express myself, Mr. Clark," she said with a smile.
She knew she'd be getting a lot of backlash from Kage by the time she got home. Severally, he'd told her not to take further business deals, claiming he needed her to stay home and get as much rest as she could. But the company still needed to be attended to. Besides, she wasn't taking on any stressful deal.
Fortunately, her meeting with the Japanese investors turned out well. Sylvie would be drafting up the contract when she gets back to the office and there! It'll be a signed deal. Kage didn't need to worry.
She was also happy being heavily pregnant didn't affect the partners' decision.
They got into the elevator, chatting lightly about unimportant things. When they reached the ground floor and stepped out, Sylvie was met with an unpleasant sight.
Across from them, Lana stood with her hands crossed, facing the elevator. It was as though, she'd been waiting for them, or maybe someone else. But with the hate Sylvie saw in her eyes, she had a feeling she might have been there for her.
Her throat ran dry i in an an instant.
. She hadn't seen Lana since the past four months, and a part of her had been grateful for it. She was wearing a long dress which was big enough to conceal her growing bump. eed anyone to tell her Lama must've been having one of the worst moments of her life. Kage had been like a trophy to her, and losing him must've been really hard on her. She tore her gaze away and walked out of the elevator with the men.
Sylvie didn't need "Hello, gentlemen!" Lana interrupted, stepping in front of them.
Sylvie's heart skipped a beat. Oh, God. No.
The men stopped walking, exchanging glances with each other. The meeting had been held in a mall, so Sylvie wasn't surprised that Lana could gain entrance. There were a lot of people on the ground floor. "How was the meeting, gentlemen?" wore a clumsy smile.
She
Sylvie noticed her steps faltering slightly as she walked. Was she tipsy?
"Do you need something?" One of the men asked, shooting her
curious stare.
"Oh, not at all!" Lana waved her hand. "It's just that, I know her." She pointed at Sylvie. "And I must tell you, you're making a terrible mistake trying to work with her."
A chill coursed down Sylvie's spine. How did she know she'd be having a meeting with them?
