Lucas scoffed and teased, "Why are you hiding? Huh? I've seen all of you before, haven't I? Humph!"
The minute everyone heard that, they were stunned.
Upon noticing their curious gazes, Lucas froze. Then, he responded with an awkward laugh.
"Oh, my God! Jazlyn, you even had a one night stand!" Aisha gushed all of a sudden.
"Boss, we'll talk about this later," Jazlyn told her. Then, she blushed and pulled up her dress to hide her cleavage as much as she could.
Lucas stared at her, completely dumbfounded.
"We were just having fun. Please don't pester me anymore! It was my fault, okay? Forget me! Just forget that night like it never happened. We were both consenting adults just having some fun. There is no need for you to take that so seriously," Jazlyn said with a serious expression.
"Did you just say you were just having fun with me? Really? You're unbelievable!" Lucas roared furiously.
The room became silent as a grave. Everyone was petrified.
"Please resolve your own problems in private," Victor said, rubbing his forehead.
When Lucas noticed everyone staring at him, he immediately quieted down and glared at Jazlyn.
Although people debated for nearly ten minutes about the identities of Aisha and Mary, they soon became convinced that they were, indeed, twin sisters.
Lucas felt like he was lost. When he finally came back to reality, he saw Archer going after Aisha, while William went after Mary. Barry and Victor followed them, leaving him alone.

Lucas rolled up his sleeves and stood tall in front of her. "No way! I'm telling you, I've gone through a training these past few days. You'll have to see if you have the ability to beat me!" he said.
Jazlyn rolled her eyes at him and sighed. "Your name is Lucas Murong, right? Look, Lucas Murong, I'm not looking down on you, am I? Go away. I don't want to beat you up again!"
Upon hearing that, Lucas became speechless. He then thought of his back pain, which was the result of their previous fight, and said, "If you want me to get out of the way, we'll have to make things clear first!"
"Is there anything else that we haven't made clear?" Jazlyn asked with a frown.
"Of course yes! You haven't told me what you do for a living!"
Tve already told you that I am a reporter," Jazlyn replied.
"I don't believe it!" Lucas blurted out. He felt like she was lying to him as she would to a child.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not." Jazlyn turned away from him with a scoff.
Lucas' hormones got the better of his emotions, and he said with determination, "Then let's talk about that night
