Chapter 60: Managing Director of the Miracle Model Agency?

After the kiss, Lucifer and Gwen stayed in each other's arms for a few minutes. They talked about some random things, laughing and smiling at each other. It was as if all the previous tension had been forgotten, and they were back to being their normal selves again.

Finally, Gwen stood up, saying that she should go now. She told Lucifer that she had dance classes today and that she couldn't afford to be late. She gave Lucifer one more kiss on the lips before leaving the park, waving goodbye as she went.

Lucifer waved back and watched her leave with a smile on his face, relieved that everything had worked out between them.

After Gwen left, Lucifer sat alone on the bench, contemplating the events that had transpired over the past few days. He felt guilty for having lied to Gwen, but he knew that it was necessary if he wanted to keep her in his life.

Besides, there was no way he could tell her the truth without making things even worse. The mere thought of telling her about his secret affairs with other women was enough to make him shudder.

'Now that I've taken the path of lies, there's no going back.' He thought to himself as he sat there, staring into the distance.

'But it's okay, right? After all, it's not like I'm lying to everyone else in my life. Just to Gwen.' He tried to comfort himself, though he knew deep down inside that this was wrong and that he should've told her the truth instead. 'No, it's better this way.

As long as she doesn't find out, everything will be fine. I also have to make sure that my other women don't spill the beans. If Gwen finds out the truth about me and them, then there's no way we can stay together.'

Just as Lucifer finished that thought, he felt his phone vibrating in his pocket. He pulled it out and saw that Lisa had sent him a text message asking if he had finished his talk with Gwen and whether he had more plans with her today.

Lucifer replied to her message, saying that he would be coming home soon and that he didn't have any other plans for today. However, he also added that he still needed to speak to her about something important.

When Lisa read his message, she smiled to herself and sent him a reply, telling him that he could come over to the Miracle Model Agency if he wanted because she also had something important to tell him.

Lucifer raised his eyebrows at this reply but didn't think too much of it as he stood up and made his way back to his car.

"I know, Mom. But there's no other way. At least not yet. When the time comes, I will tell her everything, and I will make her accept the truth, no matter how painful it may be." Lucifer assured his mother, tightening his grip on her waist as he spoke.

"I won't let her go, no matter what. Not now, not ever."

Lisa nodded and looked up at Lucifer with a loving expression on her face. "You are really determined to keep her by your side, aren't you? Well, I guess I can't blame you for that. After all, she is a very pretty girl.

And I can tell that she loves you very much too."

"That's right, Mom. And I will do whatever it takes to keep her with me forever."

Lisa smiled at Lucifer's words and gently pushed him away. She then took hold of his hand and led him towards the sofa located in the corner of her office.

When they reached the sofa, Lisa sat down and motioned for Lucifer to join her. "Sit here." She said as she patted the empty spot next to her.

Lucifer followed her instructions and sat down beside her on the sofa. "So, what was it you wanted to talk to me about, Mom?"

"Actually, I have two things to tell you." Lisa answered with a smile as she took Lucifer's hand in her own. "First of all, I wanted to let you know that I have decided to make you the new Managing Director of Miracle Model Agency, which will give you full authority over the entire company.

Secondly, I wanted to let you know that I am going on a trip abroad this evening and will be back after three weeks."

Upon hearing this news, Lucifer looked at his mother with surprise written all over his face. "What?! Are you serious? I'm not even twenty yet, and you're giving me such an important position in the company?!"

Lisa laughed at Lucifer's reaction. "Of course I am serious. You are my son, and I know you will do a good job as the Managing Director. Besides, I have already taken care of everything, so you won't need to worry about anything." She said as she caressed Lucifer's cheek gently.
