章 732: Career or love

Lance did not return to her that night nor the next day. Although he called to say sorry because of an emergency, she doubted it was the real reason.

She concluded that his father had something to do with it. She could think of several scenarios, the Count managed to force Lance to make those excuses, or he was fabricating all those problems to keep Lance away from her.

But what could she do? Should she force herself into their lives when it was evident his father did not want her?

She was left pacing in her office, not knowing what to do, conflicted about what she felt about the man that had turned her life upside down.

"Eida, the boss wants you in his office?" Her assistant told her.

That was another situation that was bothering her. Until now, she had not come up with a way to put Lance on the hot seat. Thinking about her job had suddenly taken a back seat.
