His Eagle Eyes on Me

"No need for you to come personally. I'll have it sent to your hotel. Just come down to pick it up when it arrives."

Ivy was somewhat taken aback by his kindness. "Boss, you're suddenly being so nice to me. I'm a bit unused to it. It feels like a dream. You've only treated me this well in dreams." Lucas couldn't help but give a dry chuckle in response to her words. "I don't recall bullying you?"

From Lucas' perspective, he had treated Ivy quite well. Ivy blushed as she explained, "You haven't bullied me, but you also haven't treated me so nicely. You're taking the initiative to give me a gift... I'm really moved."

A faint flush crept up Lucas' cheeks. "Didn't you say you'd bring back mooncakes from your country for me?" He couldn't just accept a gift without giving one in return, right?

Ivy responded, "I haven't brought the mooncakes yet!"

Lucas said, "Since that's the case, when you bring me the mooncakes, I'll give you the gift."

Ivy immediately countered, "No way! Since you've already prepared a gift for me, just give it to me now! Otherwise, I'll keep guessing at what you bought me."Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

Lucas fell silent for a few seconds before saying, "It's not a purchased gift. Don't let your imagination run too wild."

"Now I am really curious about the gift. Mr. Woods, bring it over now! Call me when you're at the hotel, and I'll come down to get it."

After Lucas confirmed he would and hung up, he walked toward the bedroom and opened the closet, taking out a box containing Irene's grandmother's bracelet.

The reason he had not left the bracelet at the Woods' residence and had instead carried it with him was because he was afraid of the Woods' family finding it.

He had bought this bracelet back for Irene, yet she had believed that Sam was the one who had bought it. It had left him feeling wronged and had caused a bit of a rift between them before they had parted ways.

Putting the box into his pocket, Lucas grabbed his car keys and left.

He drove onto the main road to find that it was drizzling outside.

The weather in Taronia was always unpredictable, and as the wipers swept across the windshield, Irene's face appeared in Lucas' mind

Before long, Ivy's face took its place.

Things Irene and Ivy had in common were their smiles and the way they talked.

When he arrived at the hotel, Lucas got out of his car and walked briskly inside.

He left the box at the reception, quickly exited, and got back into his car. However, he did not drive away. Instead, he called Ivy. "The gift is at the reception. Come down and get it."

"You left already? Why didn't you give it to me? Are you feeling embarrassed?" she protested.

"Maybe! I am driving now so I can't talk."

"All right. It seems to be raining outside. Drive carefully and slowly. Oh, also... no matter what gift you're giving me, I'll love it and treasure it." Lucas hummed in response and hung up.

Ivy stared at her phone, her smile yet to fade.

She took her phone with her to the elevator. Before long, she arrived at the reception and said, "Hi. My friend left a gift here for me and told me to

come down here to get it "

The receptionist brought out the box and asked, "Can you verify the name of your friend?"

Ivy's eye was instantly caught by the box, and the smile on her face vanished when she recognized it as the exact box that carried her grandmother's bracelet.
