Chapter 28: Samson Discovered Lucasta Was Bullied
Harvey took Lucasta back to her house when the twilight had covered the city.
She was also not surprised that he was the last to leave the company because she knew he was very busy.
By the time he left his desk, the afternoon’s backlog of documents had not been processed yet.
– Do you enjoy this job, Lucasta? He asked because he saw she did not smile as bright as in the morning.
– Yes, yes. I like it very much.
– I guess you’re tired, but don’t worry. Gradually, you will do well, just like Bonita. Please help me say good afternoon to Samson and Maris.
Lucasta had just gotten out of the car when Harvey left. He was bloodthirsty and wanted to drive home quickly to drink a full glass of blood.
Every lunch, he used dried blood mixed with water, so the craving for fresh blood kept making him uncomfortable.
He also had to admit that Samson and Maris were very easy to raise, he had never heard them complain about drinking dried blood.
Maybe for them, the red liquid is just food to help them maintain life as well as reduce pain in the body.
As soon as she stepped through the gate, she saw a smile on her brother’s lips.
At this moment, she just wanted to swoop into his lap and tell him how Jemaine had scolded her, but her mind was holding back her steps.
– Is everything all right? – Samson approached her, patted her head, and asked.
– Yes, everyone treats me very well, just like you?
– Like me?
– Oh, no, you’re the one who treats me best.
He smiled, took her small hand, and led her into the house.
Just now, when the sun was out, he rushed to the nearby department store to buy food to cook for her.
The situation now looks like she is working to support him. When he thought about it, he felt so funny.
– Where’s Maris? – Lucasta glanced around and asked.
– Ah. Maris has returned to the castle. Lucasta, because she was afraid that you would cry at parting, she asked me to say goodbye.
Lucasta’s tears almost overflowed because she didn’t expect Maris to return to the forest so suddenly.
She even planned to buy the best hamburger tomorrow for Maris and Samson to enjoy.
Although Maris had also said in advance that she would leave soon, Lucasta did not expect that day to be today.
Just this morning, Maris helped her tie her hair.
– Lucasta, this is your choice. If you have accepted to live in the city, don’t remember that forest anymore. Samson looked straight into her teary eyes and said.
– But I still miss it very much. Brother, in the future, we can still go back to the castle, right? Christmas season or new year or the weekend? – She raised her hand to wipe her tears and asked.
– Please take a bath. I will prepare dinner for you.
Samson did not answer Lucasta’s question because he knew it was difficult to fulfill.
If he persisted, he would not be willing to let go of her hand to return her to the human world. Not to mention, if they kept going back and forth between the two places, the secret of the two castles would also be revealed and involve many people.
He couldn’t just pretend he didn’t know and didn’t care because of his selfishness. One month was the deadline that he allowed the intimate relationship between him and her to exist.
Lucasta saw Samson quietly preparing in the kitchen, so she stopped bothering him.
She tried to walk normally so that he wouldn’t notice. In her heart, she only thought that he was disappointed with her because she asked to live in the city, but only a few days later, she asked to return to the forest.
The distance between the two places is quite far, he doesn’t have a driver’s license and he can’t bother Harvey forever.
After all, she just needed him. Although she missed the scenery, the furniture inside and outside that castle, they couldn’t compare to him.
The meal was only two people sitting together, so the atmosphere was no longer bustling. Samson was the same as usual, he just ate a little and watched Lucasta eat.
Without asking, he also knew that the dishes he cooked were very suitable for her taste because she ate a lot.
Until now, even if she was sad, she had never skipped a meal, she still showed a gloomy face and ate normally.
– What did you do today? Samson handed Lucasta a glass of lemonade and asked.
– I gave documents to the departments on the twenty and twenty-first floors. – She answered honestly.
– And Bonita went the remaining nineteen floors. – He winked and continued.
– That’s right. She said because today is my first day at work, she won’t force me to do too much. She was afraid that I would quit my job. – She smiled and replied.
– Is the lemonade very sour?
He smiled when he saw her lovely face suddenly shrink and then relax.
However, she shook her head and waved her hand as he reached for the jar of sugar to add to her glass.
Her body was originally stout and her belly wasn’t as flat as Maris’ or Bonita’s, that’s why when she put on an office uniform on her body, she was not confident.
Samson understands that, and he has researched and used the method of giving her lemonade every morning and night so that she can get her ideal waistline without having to fast.
When the meal was over, Lucasta washed the dishes to share the housework with her brother.
As she worked, she thought about tomorrow. This afternoon, when she finished work, she still felt that everything was normal, but she knew her negligence would soon reach Harvey’s ears.
– Ah.
The cry suddenly startled Samson, he immediately ran into the kitchen.
He rushed to Lucasta’s side when he saw that her hand was tinged with red blood.
If he had known in advance that she would get hurt like this, he would have told her to go to bed early.
– Try to bear the pain a little.
He coaxed Lucasta as he put her hand under the faucet. The blood was quickly washed away, and the wound was exposed on her index finger.
She was afraid of blood, so she did not dare to look at her hands, just put her head in his arm and closed her eyes, regardless of what he wanted to do.
– Sit down here so I can help you bandage the wound. – Samson pulled her to the sofa and pushed her to sit down.
The wound was not too deep, but because it was at the tip of the finger, the blood flowed so much.
Lucasta was a bit surprised because when she opened her eyes, she saw Samson’s throat moving up and down like when she saw delicious food and craved it to the point of salivation.
– What happened at the company? The job that you can do best is washing dishes, but you carelessly injure yourself. You are certainly distracted by anxiety.
Samson solemnly asked when he had finished bandaging Lucasta.
She was extremely confused because she was suddenly discovered by him.
While she still couldn’t think of a reason to justify her carelessness, his eyes left her face and moved down to her feet.
In an instant, he took off the slippers that she was wearing because he realized she had limped.
– Do you use the elevator or the stairs? – Samson looked up at her and asked.
– I take the elevator. – Lucas answered.
– If so, where do these swellings come from? Lucasta, the company has cameras everywhere, if you don’t tell the truth, I can still know the truth.
His serious face and threatening words scared Lucasta to tears, partly because of her self-pity.
She sobbed as she told him she had given Jemaine the wrong document.
Samson almost couldn’t control his anger, so he was forced to turn his back to hide his red eyes.
He was not one to defend his sister regardless of whether she was right or wrong.
Her mistake wasn’t worth it for her to be scolded and not helped by Jemaine because she had corrected it in time.
– Brother, I’m sorry. Lucasta reached out and grabbed his shirt and said.
– Let me carry you to your room. You should rest soon, you’ve worked hard all day.
The red light in his eyes gradually disappeared, leaving only the ruby color.
He took a deep breath and then turned around, carried her into her room, and laid her down on the bed.
Because he was afraid that if the swelling rubbed against the blanket, she would be hurt, so he took bandages and bandaged them.
She looked like a broken blonde doll. Both her hands and feet were bandaged.
– Lucasta, listen, your mistake is not big enough to get fired and Jemaine was wrong when he threatened you and he was even more wrong when he didn’t help you. Star Corporation also has half of my assets in it, so there’s no way you’ll get fired. Do you understand?
Honestly, Samson did not want to show off his richness with Lucasta, but he was forced to let her know that she was not inferior to anyone in the company because he realized she was not confident about her.
His hand took her petite feet and massaged them.
Perhaps she braces herself a lot to catch up with Jemaine.
Walking in high heels is hard, and running while wearing them is even harder. If she tripped, he didn’t know what would happen.
In the future, he can’t be with her, if she is bullied and injured, will she silently suffer and cry alone?
– Lucasta, if there is any problem in the future, just tell Harvey directly, he will solve it all on my behalf. If you told him this morning, you wouldn’t have been hurt like this. – He let go of her leg and instructed her.
– Because I’m afraid he will think I’m useless. I’m afraid you will take me back to the forest. – She whimpered as she explained.
– Don’t be afraid of many things, it will be very difficult to live. Let’s practice thinking positively. Like I just said, if you tell Harvey, he will order someone to chase Jemaine, and all the trouble will be handled quickly and smoothly.
Lucasta nodded and grinned to reassure Samson that she was fine. Her beautiful little hands slowly reached out and wrapped around his neck.
She rested her head on his shoulder, closed her eyes, and recalled the times he comforted her when she was a child.
Although his shoulders were thin, for her, they were the most solid and warm fulcrum.
She told herself that in the future if something happened, she would call him, she wouldn’t make him sad and worried about her anymore.
When her arms dropped, Samson knew she was asleep.
Although she had just worked the first day, she looked like she was overtime for a month. Even when she was sitting, she could still sleep soundly.
He carefully helped her lie down on the bed and pulled the blanket over her.
– Lucasta, you are more resilient than I thought. Even without me, you will still live well, that’s for sure.
Samson had just finished speaking when Lucasta suddenly opened her eyes, causing him to startle in panic.
While he didn’t know how to explain what he had just said, he saw her continue to close her eyes.
He smiled slightly because he realized she was still sound asleep and couldn’t hear anything.
– Good night Lucasta, I love you.
He reached over to turn on the desk lamp and stood up and turned off the light, then he left her room.
He could not stay silent and ignore what had happened today, he felt he needed to correct the ethics of the staff.
