His Eagle Eyes on Me

Chapter 3167



Shelly nodded. "All right. We are unpacking now, and Ivy and Lucas are waiting for us in the hotel restaurant on the first floor."

Avery chimed in, "Lucas seems a bit reserved. Try to strike up a conversation with him later."

Shelly smiled and replied, "Sure thing."

After the call ended, Hayden walked over to Shelly and said, "You guys are being too nice to Lucas. He might think it's easy to win us over. That's not a good thing."

"I was just having a normal conversation with him downstairs, right?" Shelly argued.

Hayden raised an eyebrow. "It was pretty clear it wasn't normal. You even had him call you by your name."

Shelly chuckled as she explained, "It's normal for him to address me that way. He's the same age as Ivy, so it would be weird for him to address me any other way."

"You're just being too nice to him," Hayden said.

Shelly shrugged. "I'm like this with everyone! It's not just Lucas."

"I know. What I mean is, you shouldn't be too friendly. After all, we're here as Ivy's elders."

"Should I just keep a stern face and not talk to him? That would be so awkward! Your mom told me to chat with Lucas. It's only through conversation that we can get to know what kind of person he is," Shelly said.

Hayden fell silent.

"All right, Honey. Don't worry too much. Even if Lucas passes our test, he'll still have to get your dad's approval. I doubt he will make it too easy for Lucas," Shelly consoled him.

"Let's head downstairs!" Hayden said, adjusting his mood.

"Sure. Have you thought about what questions you want to ask Lucas later? If you feel too embarrassed to ask him, I can help," Shelly said, linking her arm through Hayden's as they left the room. "I haven't thought about it."

"Okay, then. We'll play it by ear later! After all, we'll be here for a few days."

"All right."

The two arrived at the restaurant, where Ivy immediately handed them the menu.

"Are you two hungry? I've ordered a few dishes according to your tastes. Take a look and see if you want to add anything," Ivy said, having ordered dishes based on Hayden and Shelly's preferences.

Shelly took the menu and glanced at it. "Six dishes should be

The atmosphere suddenly became tense as no one spoke.

Shelly cleared her throat, preparing to ask Lucas some questions.

Just then, Ivy elbowed Lucas and said, "Why don't you tell my brother what you are doing now?"

Confused, Lucas asked, "Aren't we supposed to be eating now?"

"I mean, what your company does," she explained, resigned.

Realization dawned on Lucas' "I'm working on a new game that be launched in a week's time

Shelly smiled awkwardly. "Really? How impressive!"

"I can get Ivy to send you the link," Lucas said. "Sure!" Shelly said.

At the same time, Hayden chimed in, "She doesn't play video games."

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Lucas said, "Sorry. I didn't know that."

"I don't play games either," Hayden added.

Lucas felt even more embarrassed.

"It's fine. Send me the link, and I will try playing it."

"Ivy, as I recall, you don't play games either," Hayden said.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
