One More Chance by Jaycelle Rodriguez

Chapter 159: Mr. Handsome

Sam's POV: "Hi,"

I gasped in surprise when Luke suddenly appeared in front of the counter with the brightest smile on his face.

"O- Oh, h-hi..." I stuttered in surprise.

It's Saturday and I know he still has work today, besides, he didn't tell me he's going to the coffee shop and take note... with a dashingly handsome look. He's wearing a plain white shirt, jeans, and white sneakers.

"Come on, sweetheart, you may want to close your mouth before I get insane and kiss you right there." He teased me with a wink.

"Oh, my---" my mouth dropped open, but realizing what he had said made me close it right away. "So, what can I do for you, Mr. handsome? What are you doing here when you said you have an important meeting today?" I asked instead with a smile which he reciprocated.

"Well, first of all, thanks my love for calling me handsome, I appreciate it." He then took my hand with his.

"Tss!" I couldn't help but chuckle as I rolled my eyes.

"And as for your second question, well, I'm here to pick you up."

"To pick me up?" I asked him, confused.

"Yup, you heard it right." he nodded. "Let's go on a date. I want to go out with my lovely girlfriend."

I held my breath for a few seconds when I saw the look of admiration in his eyes as he mentioned the last three words.

"B-But I still have a lot of things to do, you know, besides, don't you have a meeting today? You told me yesterday that you have a meeting today by ten a.m..." I paused, looking at my wristwatch and then at him. "...so what happened and where are you taking me?" "Yeah, I was supposed to have a meeting today, but my assistant informed me earlier this morning our client canceled his appointment due to some family matter --- I don't know what kind of matter was that I didn't ask and as for your last question, my dear, I will take you to a place where you can see and taste heaven on earth at the same time."

why do I feel like you mean something else by those words?" I bit my lip as I
