Chapter 188 - Causing trouble (1/2)

Jen thought that it would be best if she did not try to explain herself because there was no way she could word what she had done in a way that negated what he said.

”Don't you think you're being a bit too much?” Lucas asked as he stood up from the sofa and walked towards her.

”Uh-” Jen nervously said as she looked at her feet.

”Miss Larson, I think I need to remind you that you are now MY girlfriend, right?” Lucas said accentuating the 'my' in his sentence. Jen had to pinch herself to make sure that this was not some sort of dream.

Lucas was seriously in a bad mood at this point. He hated the fact that Jen came all the way to his office to confront him about a man she had already broken up with over a year ago. It was not very pleasant, in fact, it made him angry at her for the first time in forever.

It was not like the time they argued about collaborating or when she ignored his concern for her. This was a direct confrontation about Tyler. It really left a bad taste in his mouth.

Lucas had never acted possessive or jealous before so Jen was really caught off guard. As she thought about their situation once more, she realised that she was really going overboard with the whole being seen by Tyler situation.

At the end of the day, he wasn't in her life anymore so this whole confrontation was completely meaningless. It just managed to piss Lucas off and make her look like she was still hung up on her ex.

”I think you should go home first, we'll talk when I get back,” Lucas said and went back to his seat. Jen couldn't help but notice that he did not kiss her goodbye like he normally did.

”Lucas-”

”Jen, just go home. We'll talk later” Lucas said as he leaned back on his office chair and massaged his temples. Jen bit her lower lip in hesitation. She had come to vent but the situation had just made a weird turn that she had not predicted. He wouldn't even let her apologise.

”I'll go, but make sure to have your lunch,” Jen said and paused as she was walking out of his office. She looked back at Lucas who seemed to be lost in his thoughts. She walked back and kissed his cheek.

”I'll see you later, I'm sorry,” Jen said as she caressed his hair and walked out of his office. When she opened the door she saw that David's office only had Michael there.

”You came out earlier than expected” Michael commented.
