Allison followed Shawn into the office on the 66th floor
“Mr. Lindbergh, Ms. Zimmer is here”
“Come in ”
Allison gave Shawn a nod and once inside, she noticed the vast size of the office. It was decorated in
cool tones that Lucian favored, with a large revolving bookshelf and a cabinet filled with various
valuable trinkets.
Lucian was sitting on a sofa, legs crossed. Their eyes met, and Allison was the first to look away She
whispered, “Mr. Lindbergh, I want my earring back. “

Allison nodded in confirmation For double the overtime pay, she was willing
His gaze deepened Allison, how did your earring end up on my bed?”
Allison’s eyes widened in surprise
So the earring had fallen off in his bedroom. She saw the disgust in his eyes. “You were drunk. I helped
you upstairs, but I tripped and fell when I was laying you down,” she explained
Lucian didn’t buy her explanation. He knew Allison was always trying to get close to him. For a simple
silver earring worth no more than a few dozen dollars, she had brashly gone to Magnolia Gardens. If it
weren’t for the surveillance, he wouldn’t have known about her scheming
He picked up the earring from the coffee table. “You trespassed at Magnolia Gardens for something so
cheap, Allison. I don’t believe a word you’re saying”
Allison responded, “The earring may not be expensive, but its value to me isn’t about its price. I hope
you can return it to me. I didn’t mean to trespass. I was pulled in by Lucky when he suddenly opened
the door from the inside”
Since she was already inside, she naturally wanted to find the earring if she found it, she wouldn’t have
to see Lucian again.
She approached him, bending over in sincerity “I apologize, and I hope you can return my earring. To
you, it may be a cheap item, but to me, it’s a gift from my boyfriend that
I cherish
Lucian’s eyes turned cold. Her words were like a needle piercing his forehead. He didn’t know why, but
he felt uncomfortable. He looked at the hexagram earring in his hand and suddenly found it irritating
He tossed it away, and it landed in a trash can
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAllison was taken aback and immediately bent over to retrieve the earring, not caring if the trash can
was dirty.
Just as she reached out, her wrist was suddenly grabbed by a large hand. Allison struggled fiercely
Lucian gripped her hands tightly. “How long do you plan to play innocent in front of me? You purposely
came to take me home when the waitress outside the box wasn’t you. You deliberately left your earring
on my bed. Today you broke into Magnolia Gardens. Isn’t all this to catch my attention? For a mere
earring, you came all this way. Isn’t it all to attract my attention? Allison, I will get tired of your deliberate
seduction game”
“Lucian, you jerk, let go of me!” Allison was gripped tightly by him. “Lucian, you may think this earring is
ordinary, but to me, it’s invaluable
Her words seemed to infuriate him. His brows furrowed, his lips tightly closed. The defiant resistance of
Allison in his arms deeply provoked him.
