Beauty wanted to say, "If he doesn't bully me, then nobody can.", but she swallowed her words at the last moment, realizing she would be digging her own grave.
"No one's bullying me; I was just upset from not catching a taxi."
Knowing that Lucas disliked Samuel, she dared not tell him she had a date with Samuel today.
She honestly thought he might strangle her if he flew into a rage.
Thinking of the cutting remarks Samuel had made to her put a bitter taste in her mouth, she gritted her teeth and lowered her head.
A flash of distress in her eyes.
Lucas turned to retrieve a purple box from a cabinet and handed it to her.
A cold voice sounded, "I didn't get you a present for your birthday.
This necklace is a new product from our head company, which I personally participated in the design of.
It's a limited edition, early release, and I get to choose who to give it to.
Let me know if you like it."
Beauty couldn't help being taken aback in surprise.
