You Complete Me novel (Skylar and Coralie) novel Chapter 491

Lucille was absorbed in drawing and did not notice the man's stare at all.

She had a bad habit. When she painted, she would be so absorbed in it and would ignore everything around her.

Throughout the afternoon, she was in this state. It was only when Zoel called out her name several times for lunch that she heard him.

On the first day, she finished two paintings in one go.

When the second painting was finished, Lucille stretched her body. When she looked up again, she found that the sky had already turned completely dark outside.

It was already seven o'clock in the evening.

She quickly put away all the painting tools, cleaned up her work space and picked up her bag to go out.

When she turned off the lights and was about to lock the door...

"Today's headlines... a financial..." It's the sound of some news broadcast.

A man's voice came from the gallery and

Lucille was shocked.

When she turned on the lights again, she found that Zoel laid alone on the sofa and had fallen asleep, his phone playing out a video.

He was dressed in black and blended in with the black leather sofa. Lucille had not paid attention to him just now.

The main reason was that she did not expect Zoel to be waiting for her there.

"Mr. Parker?"

Lucille walked to his side, and half squatted down. Just as she was about to give him a nudge, he suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms before she could even react.

"Megan, you're back."

Zoel whispered into her ear and called Megan' s name softly. The man's unshaven beard rubbed against her face.

Lucille was frightened. She quickly got rid of the man's hand and shouted, "Mr. Parker!"

"Ah? Have you finished drawing?" With her cry of surprise, Zoel instantly woke up.

"I've finished drawing. I'm sorry to let you wait for me today. Next time... Next time, you can call me directly."

Lucille felt uncomfortable about what had happened just now and her words were somewhat stuttered.

As she spoke, she carried her bag and wanted to walk out.

After she walked a few steps, Zoel caught up to her and rushed to the gallery door in front of her. He said, "It's already so late. Let's have dinner together. Consider it a celebration of your first sale."

"No need... My, my roommate is still waiting for me at home."

If it wasn't for what happened just now, Lucille might have agreed.

"Please..."

"Mr. Parker, I'm sorry, I..."

"Well, as your boss, I order you to join me to celebrate your first sale."

Zoel was obviously not young, but his style of handling things was not mature at all.

At this moment, he actually used his authority to ask Lucille to have dinner with him.

She was speechless.

He said, "If you refuse, I will lower the commission rate."

At the mention of money, Lucille immediately complied. She nodded silently. "Alright, but I can't go home too late."

"I know. You said it before."

When she agreed, Zoel quickly locked the gallery door and drove Lucille to a Chinese restaurant.

In the private room, he took the initiative to order the dishes. After he ordered, he said to the waiter, "Don't make it spicy. My friend is allergic to spicy food."
