Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1668

[Yeah, I’m at the villa. You can come anytime.]

Lucas typed fast, his fingers moving fluidly across the screen. Within seconds, the message was sent.

On the other end of the video call, the executives all exchanged looks.

It was the first time they’d ever seen Lucas with such a gentle expression. Normally, he was the kind of man who could spot flaws in perfection, dissecting every detail of their work with sharp precision.

Usually, his gaze was cold, his presence overwhelming.

No one dared meet his eyes for too long.

But now, that same gaze was soft, warm even.

Even through the screen, they could feel that he was in an unusually good mood.

It hit them all at once.

Lucas actually had a gentle side.

He just never showed it to them.

No one dared interrupt. They simply watched as he finished typing his message before seamlessly returning to the meeting.

The transition was flawless.

Everyone silently marveled.

This was what true leadership looked like.

To juggle work and romance without missing a beat, and to handle both so effortlessly.

Who wouldn’t envy a man like that?

When Lucas looked back up, he noticed the distracted expressions across the screen.

Clearly, none of them were paying attention to the actual discussion.

Lucas tapped his fingers lightly against the desk, his tone sharp. “What are you all thinking about? We’re still in a meeting.”
