Chapter 774 I’m Waiting

774 I’m Waiting

Jade, who had still been soundly asleep when Harry left for work, woke up, and she smiled when she saw that Harry had left a note on his side of the bed.

[Good morning, goddess. Last night was perfect with you. You looked so beautiful in your sleep, and I just couldn't bring myself to wake you up. I can't wait to come back home to you. I love you. Try not to miss me too much. I will spend the day thinking about you. I love you again.]

Jade giggled as she read the note, and then she shook her head. There was no way she was going to be able to wait until he got back from work to see him.

She had to see him no matter how briefly, Jade decided as she got off the bed and headed straight to the bathroom to freshen up.

Just as she got to the bathroom, an idea hit her, so she quickly threw on a shirt and headed for the living room.

There was no need to go there empty-handed when she could take lunch to the office and enjoy it with him.

Once she got to the dining, she paused and smiled when she saw that Harry had left breakfast for her on the table. There was a note beside it, too.

[I will get you flowers later. For now, you should eat to regain all the energy you lost. I don't want you fainting on me tonight. Winks. Lest I forget, I love you.]

Jade giggled as she read the note and shook her head as she sat down to eat, even though she had come out to prepare lunch for him.

He wasn't even here with her, yet he was making her smile and laugh so much, Jade thought with a sigh as she picked up her phone to give him a call.

Her brows pulled together when she dialed his line, and it rang, but there was no response. She sighed when she called again, and there was still no response.

"I guess you are busy," Jade murmured as she focused on the breakfast he had left her, even though it was cold already.

She was sure he had left it because he had not expected her to wake up so late.

After she was done eating, she took the plates to the kitchen and dumped the plates on the sink out of habit, and just as she turned to go check his refrigerator for whatever she could use to prepare his lunch, she saw another note on the kitchen island.

[I trust you did the dishes after eating. Good girl. I love you.]

Jade scowled at the note as she returned to do the dishes. She knew very well that he had left the note cause he knew she wouldn't do the dishes, so why was he patronizing her?

By the time Jade was done preparing the meal and was ready to leave for the company in one of Harry's cars, it was almost time for lunch break.

She knew without a doubt that Harry would be happy to see her, but she also knew that he might be too busy to spare her a moment, seeing how he was yet to return her call even after two hours.

Away from there, after her phone call with Lucas, Lucy sighed. She didn't know what to make of Lucas's concern for Amy, and she didn't understand why Amy didn't want Lucas to know what was going on with her either.

Whatever it was, she decided that she was not going to get in the middle of it. She trusted Lucas to do what was best for himself.

Not wanting to dwell much longer on it, she dialed Sonia's line to check on her, and she waited for some seconds before Sonia received the call.

"Hey!" Sonia said unenthusiastically, and Lucy frowned.

"Are you okay? Not in the mood to talk?" She asked with concern.

"I'd rather we chat on WhatsApp. I can't talk. I don't want to," Sonia managed to say.

"Alright. I will hang up and text you now," Lucy said before she disconnected the call.

[What's up? Are you alright?] Lucy texted Sonia.

[I'm just spitting so much. Excess saliva. Pregnancy symptoms. It's so annoying and stressful to talk.] Sonia texted back, and Lucy winced.

[Isn't there something you can take to reduce it?]

[If there was, would I be here complaining?] Sonia responded with a rolling eye emoji.

[Someone is obviously in a foul mood.] Lucy texted back, amused by Sonia's response.

[You would be in a foul mood, too, if you were experiencing this. I will wait patiently for you to get pregnant, and then I will see how you plan to deal with the symptoms pleasantly. Speaking of you getting pregnant, are you getting an engagement ring for Tom or yourself? What's the plan?] Sonia asked since she needed to know how to go about planning the engagement for them both.

[I should probably get a ring. I'm going to have to use up all the money I have to buy a suitable ring for Tom. I can't buy something cheap.]

[I suggest you don't bother with buying a ring. If he accepts your proposal, he will want to get you a ring. So I think you should leave that to him. He should at least have the pleasure of buying you a ring.] Sonia suggested since it wouldn't be nice for Tom and Lucy to get rings.

She could easily advise Lucy not to bother with getting rings, but there was no way she could ask Tom not to get rings. It wouldn't make sense. And since Tom would be getting the rings, she knew he would get something perfect for Lucy.

[I think you have a point. I won't get a ring then. Are you back to Ludus yet? Will you both be at Tom's place?] Lucy asked curiously.

[We are back to Ludus, but we won't be at Tom's. We went directly to our house. The house is ready now, and since we have just three weeks before the wedding, we decided to move in now.] Sonia explained.

[Alright then. I will come over to see you by the weekend then. Be good. Love you loads, and love my baby more.] Lucy texted when she saw it was almost time for lunch break.

Done with checking on Sonia now, Lucy rose and put on her blazer before leaving for Tom's office.

Just as she got to his office, she met some of the directors coming out of the office, and she greeted them politely before walking inside to see Tom and Harry.

"Hey, LuLu!" Harry greeted pleasantly. free(w)ebnovel

"Hello, HaHa! You look different. What's with the muffler?"Lucy asked when she noticed his covered neck.

"He got bitten by a vampire," Tom said, and Harry shot him a glare.

"It's nothing serious. I'm just making a fashion statement," Harry told Lucy, and before she could say anything else, he rose as he glanced at his watch.

"Got to go. I have a meeting to attend at the conference hall," Harry said as he headed for the door.

He paused when he remembered something, "Tom said you volunteered to be his part-time assistant. I will have my secretary hand over his stuff to you. Let's catch up later, without your annoying boyfriend," Harry said before walking away, leaving Tom, who was grinning as he watched him leave.

"What was that about?" Lucy asked, and Tom chuckled.

"It's nothing. I was just messing with him. So, now that you will be working as my assistant, would you like me to pay you in advance?" He asked, and she giggled.

"Stop being silly. Let's have lunch already. I'm famished," Lucy said as she headed for his office bedroom, and Tom rose to follow her.

"Have you heard from Sonia? Bryan called to say they have moved to their house. He went home earlier to pick up their stuff," Tom said, and Lucy nodded.

"Yeah. Sonia said so. She seems to be having a hard time with the pregnancy symptoms. She wouldn't even talk to me. I wonder how Bryan is coping," Lucy said as she set up their lunch on the table.

"I'm sure he is coping well. If I were in his shoes, I wouldn't have a single complaint," Tom said easily.

"So you would think until you're actually in his shoes," Lucy said dryly.

"Why not try me?" He asked with a wink.

"Let's wait and see," she said, and Tom grinned.

"Sure. I'm waiting."

After having lunch with Tom, Lucy left so that Tom could attend to his next appointment for the day.

As she approached the elevator, the elevator opened, and Jade walked out of it.

"Hello, Jade! I see you brought lunch for Harry," Lucy greeted with a pleasant smile, and Jade smiled back as she stopped in her strides.

"Hello, Lucy! You're just coming from Tom's office, right? Was Harry there? Or do you know if he is in his office? I've been trying to reach him, but he isn't taking his call," Jade said, and Lucy nodded.

"He left for the conference hall a while ago. Said he has a meeting there," Lucy said, and Jade raised a brow.

"A while ago? I called two hours ago," Jade said, and Lucy shrugged.

"He must have been busy. They had just ended a meeting in Tom's office when I got here. And he left for the conference hall almost immediately. I don't think he had the time to check his phone," Lucy explained, and Jade scowled.

"I need to have a word with your boyfriend. He is overworking my man," Jade said, and Lucy giggled.

"You will have to book an appointment to do that during work hours. My boyfriend is having a meeting in his office at the moment. I have to get back to work, too. See you later," Lucy said with a wave as she hurried off.

"If you run into my man, let him know his goddess is waiting in his office with homemade lunch for him," Jade called after Lucy, and Lucy giggled without turning back.
