"Are you serious with Luke?" Edward asked as he leaned back in the chair. He looked quite relaxed when he locked his fingers behind his head and then stared at Michelle. Though he was smiling, Michelle couldn't help but shiver as she could feel how dangerous Edward's aura was.
"I don't know what you are talking about, Mr. Mu." Michelle refused to answer his question and bit her lips.

"I..." stammered Michelle. A part of her wanted to admit her feelings for Luke but she shook her head and chose to say nothing. If Luke didn't have a thing for her, he might be pissed off once Edward forced him to accept her. This would be the last she wanted. Although she hadn't spent a lot of time with Luke, she could tell that he was a confident and proud man who wouldn't be forced to do anything he didn't want to do.
"Don't you need my help?" Edward asked again upon not getting any response from Michelle. Her reaction was really surprising him as he had anticipated her to happily accept his offer.
"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Mu, but I don't need that." A forced smile cracked Michelle's lips. It was ironic how she had been persuading Patricia not to give up a forest for just one tree. However, she never expected herself to fall for a man who didn't love her as well. Unlike Patricia, Michelle didn't even have the courage to express her true feelings for Luke.

Meanwhile, Michelle felt really embarrassed. She could clearly see the dislike on Luke's face when she discretely glanced at him. Was Luke thinking that she arranged all these? She could bet her bottom dollar that he hated her more now.
"Michelle, please eat some more. The dishes here are really delicious," Leena butted in to make things lighter. It was the longest lunch Michelle had ever eaten. Everyone there had their own thoughts as they smiled wickedly. They were all acting as if they were gate crashers that shouldn't be there and as if she and Luke were the only ones who were supposed to meet.
"Thanks, Leena." Michelle peeked sideways at Luke. However, the latter just ignored her as if he didn't notice what she did.
