Before Winnie could scold Lucas, Lisanne whacked the latter’s head.

“What are you saying? Stop shooting your mouth off. When we previously asked you to pursue Winnie, you declined. What type of ludicrous idea do you have this time?”

Lucas placed his arm on Winnie’s shoulders. “I can’t handle women who are too assertive. Only Xavier has the luck to get together with Winnie. Moreover, Winnie and I are purely best friends. It’s the kind of friendship that will last even after we are married to our respective spouses.”

Lisanne rolled her eyes. “Winnie is already married. Who are you going to get married to? Do you even wish to get married?”

“Of course. Am I not dating right now?”

“I’m speechless. Are you sure you’re dating? I’m pretty sure you’re just fooling around.”

“How can you say that? I am sincere and genuine with every single girlfriend. I haven’t gotten married because I am not that attracted to any of them. Neither of them is as attractive as Winnie, nor are they as talented as you.”

Winnie huffed as she brushed off his arm. “Keep your hands off me, playboy. You don’t need to care about what I’m going to do. I just need you to instruct someone to keep an eye on immigration.”

“All right. I’ll have it done. What do you guys want to have for lunch? I’ll treat you.”

Lisanne did not hold back at all. “Let’s have a feast. You haven’t treated me to a meal since I came back. I’ll bleed you for every penny I can get.”

Lucas chuckled. “Do you really believe that one lunch will leave me destitute? Obviously not!”

He turned to ask Winnie, “What about you, Winnie? What do you wish to eat?”

Winnie glanced at her phone and answered, “I must apologize. I have an appointment.”

Lucas grinned playfully. “Is it Xavier? Is he checking in with you?”

Winnie rolled her eyes at him. “This is called spending time together to improve our relationship. You only know about checking in. Your girlfriends must be checking in on you daily. I’m going!”
