Chapter 394: Lucien’s Nightmare
He leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes as a sense of happiness and peace descended upon him. Ian’s offer had come at a time when he was on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion and missing his Angel. As the hostess served a glass of wine, he’d already left behind all the worried about responsibility and was now planning a surprise for his angel.
Opening his eyes, he swirled the wine in his glass and smiled contentedly as he wondered how she would react. Would she run to him or be so surprised that he’d have to race to her and gather her in his arms?
She would probably be busy in her office when he reached there. So he would have to plan his surprise accordingly.Grabbing his phone, he browsed through the websites of local florists and bakeries, he meticulously selected the perfect bouquet and cake for his Angel. The fragrant blossoms and delectable treats would be perfect for their reunion.
Next, he’d need to have his hotel room decorated to welcome her. A honeymoon suite so that they would be able to spend more time together. If only he could speak to Uncle Alexander. Maybe then he would be able to get her to leave the office for sometime.
However, he could only grimace. She would not appreciate that. And she would be away from the office next week so it would only create trouble for her in the long run.
After hours of waiting, he finally reached Estania. The warm air welcomed him and as expected, the bouquets of the flower he’d ordered was already waiting with his subordinate who greeted him," Mr Frost, your car is here. And your room has been prepared as per your orders. Do you need anything else?"
"No. Thank you for your hard work." Lucien smiled at the man before quickly rushing out. Now that he was this close to her, he could not help but feel restless. He almsot wished that the plane could have flown over the royal palaces. Then he’d have jumped out of the plane and directly gone to see her. Exhaustion threatened to keel him over but excitement kept his eyes wide open.
As he arrived at the large brownstone building that held her office, he suddenly had a feeling of misgiving. The place was unusually quiet. While not many people worked in this building, her trusted team of secretaries were also not in their usual places. He glanced at the time and realized that it was already evening. Maybe, they’d left early today.
Was it possible that Evana too had left early. Lucien grinned. That would be great. He’d have to wait longer to see her but atleast then he could have all of her to himself. Grinning, he walked to her door, and sighed when he heard her talking to someone. She wasn’t alone.
Maybe he should stop here and wait outside. He looked at the couch outside and sighed. He could wait but maybe he’d just show her his face, so that she’d know he was here. Placing the flowers aside, he grinned. That would be perfect. Lets see what she would do once she knew he was outside.
