Chapter 937: That’s So Sweet



As the workday drew to a close, Harry found himself counting down the minutes until he could see Jade again.

He had spent the entire day thinking about their evening together, and he couldn't wait to finally have her back at his place.

The moment it was the closing hour, Harry quickly wrapped up for the day and headed out of his office.

He had been eagerly looking forward to this moment all day, and now that the workday was finally over, he could hardly contain his excitement.

The office bustled with the usual end-of-day hustle as Harry walked briskly toward Jade's office, his heart beating a little faster with anticipation.

He finally arrived at Jade's office and knocked lightly before stepping inside. Jade looked up from her desk, her face lighting up with a smile when she saw him.

"Hello, goddess. Done for the day?" He asked, and her smile widened as Harry grinned and crossed the room to her.

"Hey there, handsome," she greeted, her eyes sparkling with amusement at his obvious excitement.

"Ready to go home?" he asked with a grin, his tone light but with a hint of eagerness that made her chuckle.

"Home, huh? Someone is really eager," Jade teased, standing up and gathering her things.

"You have no idea. It's been way too long since you've graced my apartment with your beautiful presence and I've really missed having you over," Harry said as he watched her pick up her blazer before looking up at him.

Jade smiled, feeling a warm flush of happiness at his words. "Well, I missed being there too," she admitted as she slipped her blazer on, smoothing it down.

"Let's get going then before you change your mind," Harry said and Jade laughed, shaking her head.

"Alright, boyfriend. Let's go." She grabbed her purse, and he wrapped an arm around her waist as they walked out of her office.

Jade exchanged smiles with her few remaining colleagues who waved her goodbye.

As they exited the building, Harry led Jade to his car, opening the door for her with a flourish. "Your chariot awaits, my lady," he said with a playful bow.

Jade rolled her eyes but couldn't hide her grin. "Thank you, kind sir," she said with a mock curtsy as she slid into the seat, and watched him as he rounded the car to get in.

As Harry started the car, Jade turned to him, "So, what's up with Mia?" She asked and Harry glanced at her.

"You didn't ask Tom or Lucy like you said you would?" He asked and she shook her head.

"Nah. I was waiting to hear it from you," she said and Harry grinned and went on to tell her all about it.

"I'm glad that's out of the way now. But most especially I'm glad that you didn't commit any crime and your involvement in all of this is not known," she said after Harry was done and he nodded in agreement.

When they arrived at his apartment, Harry unlocked the door and pushed it open, stepping aside to let Jade enter first.

She stepped inside and immediately giggled when she saw the flower petals that formed a path on the floor.

"What's all this?" she asked, turning to look at Harry with a playful grin.

Harry's eyes twinkled with mischief. "It's your welcome home," he said, stepping closer and taking her hand. "It's been a while since you last came here, and I wanted it to be special." Jade's smile widened as she looked down at the petals, feeling a surge of warmth at his sweetness. "When did you have the time to do this?" she asked, genuinely impressed.

"I woke up early this morning and did it before leaving for work," Harry replied, his voice filled with pride when he saw the way her eyes were gleaming with happiness.

Jade leaned in and kissed him, her heart swelling with affection. "Thanks. I love it, and I'm impressed," she said, pulling back slightly.

"Just out of curiosity, and not to sound unromantic or ungrateful, who's going to clean up all these flowers?" she asked as they walked further into the house and Harry laughed, shaking his head.

"You know when I was doing this, I pictured you asking me this, and you didn't disappoint me," he said, still chuckling. "Don't worry, my cleaner will come in tomorrow morning to take care of it."

Jade grinned, "Good then," she said as they walked into the bedroom and she stopped short when she saw the heart-shaped floral design on the bed.

"You're something else, you know that?" She said, her voice soft.

Harry smiled and kissed her forehead. "I just want everything to be perfect for you and to show you how happy I am that you're here again," he said earnestly.

us," Lucas blurted out and Lucy grinned.

"Us? What do you mean us?" she asked, feigning ignorance.

"Don't do that or I'm going to hang up," Lucas warned, sensing that she was about to gloat.

Lucy giggled. "Alright. Okay. I'm sorry. Yes, she told me something interesting was going on

between you two. Are you happy?" she asked, seriously.

"Yeah. I'm very happy," Lucas admitted.

"Good. That's good."

"Do you like her?" Lucas asked and Lucy rolled her eyes.

"Why are you asking me that when you're both dating already?" she asked dryly.

"We are not dating yet. We agreed not to do so yet. We are still getting to know each other so

we can better understand our feelings," Lucas explained.

"So? Do you like her? Do you approve of me dating her?"

"Do you even have to ask that? You know that I love Amy. Amy is a wonderful person, and I'm really happy that you both make each other happy," Lucy said and Lucas smiled. After the issue with Rachel, he had made up his mind that if ever he got involved with anyone,

the person must get along with Lucy, and Lucy had to like the person and approve of her else

he was not going to get involved.

"So you won't mind if I tell you I'm going to accept Tom's offer and come work at the company hospital and live in Ludus?" Lucas asked, and Lucy grinned.

"You know I would be happy to have you here and close to me," Lucy said happily.

"I'd be happier to be close to the nieces and nephews you're going to give me," Lucas said and

Lucy giggled.

"Slow down, will you? Don't put the cart before the horse," Lucy said, laughing softly.

"So, uhm, I need your help," Lucas said and Lucy raised a brow.

"With what?"

"I want to have flowers and stuff delivered to Amy tomorrow. Can you help me pull that off?"

Lucas asked and Lucy grinned.

"Aww. That's so sweet," she said and Lucas smiled.

"Well, I'd like to court her properly even if I'm not there. She said she has never had a

boyfriend, and so I want to make this special so she doesn't miss out on anything," Lucas said and Lucy's smile widened until her cheeks hurt.

"I'll definitely help you pull it off. Would you like to include a handwritten note? You could

tell me what you want on it and I'd pen it down," Lucy suggested.

"I'll like that. I'll text you all I want, then you'll have it delivered to her by her lunch break,

okay?" Lucas said and Lucy nodded even though he couldn't see her.

"Sure."

"Thanks. And let Tom know I would call him and officially submit my details to him so it would be official. I love you. Sleep well when you do," Lucas said before hanging up.
