32: Chapter 32 Take Her to the Company
32 -32 Take Her to the Company
Serena Summers turned her head and saw Master Shaw covering his face with his hand, peeking at them through the gaps between his fingers.
His face was filled with excitement.
Seeing them looking over, Master Shaw smiled and said, “I didn’t see anything.
Please continue, carry on.”
He stood up from the sofa, pretending as if nothing had happened, and even deliberately spoke out loud, “I’m getting old; I should stretch my limbs.
I’ll take a stroll in the garden.”
What he implied was, I, the old man, won’t be a third wheel here, continue!
Serena Summers gave a thumbs up to the receding back of Master Shaw.
Grandpa is the best!
“Now that Grandpa has left, nobody is watching.”
The young girl looked up, her eyes sparkling, filled with the light of anticipation.
She looked at him with the expectation and a tinge of sadness of a child denied candy.
Lucas Shaw’s Adam’s apple bobbed slightly, and then he bent down to place a light kiss on her forehead.
The moment his lips touched her forehead, Lucas Shaw felt an electric current spread through his limbs, a tingling sensation all over his body.
He looked at the place he had just kissed; his lips were tightly pressed together, his heartbeat a bit erratic.
So he feigned composure and said, “Alright, let’s go.”
Serena Summers looked at Lucas Shaw’s composed face, thinking that he felt nothing.
It wasn’t until she saw him fleeing as if in a panic that she realized the guy was just a bit bashful.
Upon seeing this, Serena Summers couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle.
“Husband, where are we going?”
Lucas Shaw gave her a glance, deciding not to stoop to the same level as a child.
He opened the passenger door, gesturing for Serena Summers to get in, “We’re heading to the company.
Aren’t you curious about it?”
Serena Summers’ eyes lit up, “Really?
Can I visit the company?”
“You can.”
Lucas Shaw lowered his gaze and, unnoticed, his lips slightly curled into a smile.
Seated in the car, Lucas Shaw said to Serena Summers, “Our marriage news has already spread.
Don’t you find it annoying to stay at home?
It’s a perfect time to take you out for a distraction.”
Although marriage was dispensable for Lucas Shaw, now that he had made a choice, there was no need to keep it hidden.
Hearing his words, a small joy suddenly sprouted in Serena Summers’ heart.
Was he about to introduce her to his subordinates at the company, making everyone aware of her identity?
Serena Summers’ cheeks flushed slightly, filled with an added sense of anticipation.
As they drove halfway, Serena Summers spoke up, “Husband, should I prepare gifts for the visit to the company?”
Lucas Shaw looked at her, puzzled, “What gifts?”
After a moment’s thought, Serena Summers decisively said, “Maybe we should buy some wedding candies.”
So sweet and delicious.
Seeing Serena Summers squinting her eyes in satisfaction, Lucas Shaw knew this little troublemaker’s sweet tooth had acted up again.
He pulled the car over to the side, and in a low voice, said, “Wait here for me, I’ll be back soon.”
Serena Summers obediently agreed, and saw Lucas Shaw walk towards a nearby mall with his long strides.
It wasn’t long before he walked out with a few exquisitely packaged boxes that seemed a little out of place given his demeanor.
Serena Summers asked in confusion, “Weren’t you buying wedding candies?
What are these?”
Lucas Shaw frowned, took out a box of brown chocolate, and said, “For you.”
He had only picked out two expensive packs of wedding candies; the rest could be handled by his assistant.
With over a thousand employees at Shaw Group, if he were to distribute to each one, he wouldn’t need to do anything else today.
Serena Summers stared at the heart-shaped chocolate box that Lucas Shaw handed over, her eyes sparkling, “Chocolate, my favorite thing to eat!”
She leaned in and planted a firm kiss on Lucas Shaw’s cheek, “Hubby, you’re the best!
I like you so much!”
Lucas Shaw’s back stiffened, and beneath his thick dark hair, the tips of his ears slowly turned a shade of red.
He glanced at Serena without expression, and inwardly clicked his tongue, “Look at how easily satisfied you are.
It’s just a box of candy.
Is it worth getting this excited over?”
Serena, holding the box of chocolates, her glistening almond eyes brimming with joy, said, “Because it’s from you.”
Because it’s from you.
Lucas pressed his lips together, as a subtle ripple suddenly stirred the calm waters of his heart.
Shaw Group.
Today, the usually hardworking employees were acting out of character.
In various departments, groups of people huddled together, whispering something with excitement and disbelief on their faces.
“Hey, did you hear?
Yesterday during the meeting, a woman appeared next to our CEO!!!”
“I heard!
It’s crazy in the company chat!
Everyone’s discussing it.
Someone from the tech department said that last night during the meeting, they heard a woman calling our CEO ‘hubby’!”
With this remark, a wave of astonishment spread.
Many people excitedly covered their mouths with shrieks.
Others simply couldn’t believe it and were convinced it was a rumor.
What’s our CEO’s temperament like?
He may appear pale and frail, but in reality, he is cold, indifferent, and has an intimidating presence.
Although he holds high power, he’s never been interested in women, as abstemious as an ancient person.
There are even rumors claiming the CEO is incapable in that regard.
Some say our CEO is into men.
How could there possibly be a woman by the side of a man who’d remain unswayed even if a woman stripped naked in front of him?
While everyone guessed the truth of the matter, the company chat exploded again.
Everyone picked up their phones, exchanged glances, and quickly made their way toward the elevator.
Someone had just sent a message in the chat that the CEO had arrived at the company, and there was a woman with him!!!
This was simply earth-shattering news!
It instantly ignited the gossip flames in the hearts of many.
They all wanted to see for themselves who the woman capable of capturing Lucas Shaw was.
As soon as they stepped out of the department, they saw countless people congesting the hallway.
Even the rush to the employee cafeteria at lunchtime had never been so crowded.
Downstairs, Lucas Shaw, carrying a wedding candy gift bag in one hand and holding Serena Summers’ wrist in the other, walked in under the gaze of countless onlookers.
Lucas casually swept his gaze across the crowd and saw many people blocking the doorway, his handsome face turning stern, “What are you doing blocking here?
Shouldn’t you be working?”
“We’re just curious.

CEO, we heard you have a girlfriend now, is that true?” A man in his twenties, dressed in a plaid shirt, bravely asked.
As he spoke, his eyes kept drifting toward the girl beside Lucas Shaw.
At that glance, he was instantly stunned.
Everyone’s eyes revealed a hint of amazement.
The girl was petite and fair-skinned, with slightly curved willow-leaf eyebrows, naturally red lips, and glittering apricot eyes.
She was both pure and adorable, yet also charming and alluring—a perfect mix of opposing qualities, seemingly natural and effortless.
Next to their CEO, they made a handsome pair.
What was most shocking was that the girl was actually holding their CEO’s hand.
Being so close to their CEO, she didn’t show a trace of fear or intimidation.
