Chapter 377: Glory was here
Elliana looked at the back of the man who was not leaving her alone even for a second and thinned her lips.
"Lucas, you don’t really need to stand here with me. What if Mr. Marino needs you?" Elliana said.
Lucas, who was standing like a bodyguard, turned around and looked at his princess before humming, not moving.
Elliana took a deep breath when her words didn’t have any effect on Lucas just like all the other things she said to get him out of there. He wasn’t ready to leave his position or duty this time, and it showed in his actions and stance.
It has been 30 minutes since they arrived here. Luckily the chief guest of the occasion was running late and wouldn’t be here for another hour. The racers were asked to ease their nerves or have some snacks if they wanted to in the meantime.
It was the perfect opportunity for her to get into her outfit and get her bike out, probably even take a lap to see if the bike was working just fine, but the man hadn’t been budging from his place and it was irking her.
He was quite serious today, then again, after what happened in the afternoon, who wouldn’t? Though she wanted him out of the place now, she wouldn’t lie and say the man didn’t care for her.
He has been there for her for the kind of things that no subordinate would. Heck, he even risked his life by going against Mr. Marino, all because she was sad and wanted to take revenge on her husband for not taking her to the party.
Elliana felt someone’s gaze on her and she turned to her left where Dexter and her friends were standing at some distance.
Dexter immediately waved at her, raising the bag in his hand that probably had the outfit and other things she asked for.
Elliana took a deep breath and motioned towards Lucas, who was standing there with a ’if you neared my princess, your heart will be in my hand,’ look.
