Kapitel 54: A Comfortable Friend

As Lucien walked into the cafe, his face harried, he looked around and his eyes met Nora's who smiled and waved at him. Her smile made him feel as if the sun had come out from behind the clouds on this dreary day. 

Waving back at her, he made his way to his usual table but stopped when he noticed that it was already occupied. Sighing, he looked around and was gratified when Nora gestured to him, holding an empty table for him.

Rushing there he murmured a grateful thanks and quickly got to work. It had been a few days since he had come here, he'd been so swamped with work. The only reason he had managed to escape today was he'd threatened his assistant in trying to schedule anything for him. With Gabe playing hooky these last few days, everything had fallen onto him, and Lucien was tempted to call out his older brother and give him a stern talking to.
