Chapter 225 Ideal Partner?
Byron never expected to see Cora with a sweet smile, playfully tapping someone’s head.
The intimate interaction reminded him of the passionate. nights he spent with Cora, her delicate and tender appearance beneath him.
So Byron couldn’t help but wonder if she would have a passionate h oking up with Lucas tonight as well.
The scenes that involuntarily crossed his mind made his heart
feel like it was being devoured by countless ants.
And at that moment, Carter said, “Miss Lane seems to have
found her ideal partner.”
Byron glared at him coldly on the spot.
Carter met Byron’s gaze through the rearview mirror.
Carter suddenly realized that if looks could kill, he would have died several times just now.
He was considerate of the situation and kept his mouth shut,
thinking that the matter would probably end there.

But to his surprise, he saw Byron take out his phone and make a call, saying, “Police officer, I want to report that near the First Hospital, someone is obstructing the passageway with candles. I hope you can handle it as soon as possible.”
Carter, who witnessed everything, was left speechless.
The police officers arrived quickly because their leader said the report came from Mr. Moneybags, Byron.
They didn’t dare to delay the report from Byron.
So they dispatched a small team to the First Hospital supermarket’s front entrance and extinguished the heart-shaped candles with fire extinguishers.
Lucas and Cora never expected that their first attempt at being romantic, even before it started, would be interrupted by someone reporting them, extinguishing the candles with a fire extinguisher, and finally receiving a verbal reprimand.
“Some people just can’t stand seeing others happy. Don’t let it
bother you.”
Sally watched the whole process and could only console herself in this way.
Although Lucas compromised, he still felt frustrated. “I didn’t

expect people these days to be so envious.”

“Forget it, don’t be angry. I received your intentions, and I’m happy about it. Let me treat you all to a barbecue.” Cora didn’t even realize the report was related to her, still wearing a smile of joy.
“How can I let you pay? Today, I failed to create a romantic atmosphere for you, so let me treat you to make up for it.”
Lucas looked at Cora guiltily.
But Sally chimed in, “Either of you can treat, but can we go
now? I’m starving!”
“Alright, alright, let’s go!”
The final three people enjoyed a barbecue that cost over a
hundred dollars, and this imperfect confession was given a
perfect ending.
Since starting a relationship with Lucas, Cora could always receive various treats every day.
Sometimes it was breakfast or dinner made by Lucas. Sometimes, it was exquisite pastries from take-out, and more often, it was fresh fruits and vegetables he bought while out.
In addition, he liked to take her to various activities and

introduce her to his colleagues and friends.
Even the upcoming company team-building event that allowed family members, Lucas wanted Cora to come with
him.
“Company team-building events aren’t too wild. Just come
with me!”

“You’ve probably never stayed in a stilt house before, and it’s really fun.”
Unable to resist Lucas’ persuasion, Cora agreed.
Lucas was overjoyed like a child, and he had been preparing their luggage for the team-building event since that day.
Watching L ca s’s happy expression, Cora couldn’t help but make some comparisons. Thinking back to when she was with Byron before, she hardly ever saw him smile.
In retrospect, Cora was glad she had agreed to Lucas to be
with him.
In the meantime, Byron had also received news that Moonware Games would be hosting a large-scale
team-building event.
