I Will Protect You

"I will convey your idea. And see how my father replies. Can I take this to show him?" he asked hurriedly, then realizing he had shown too much enthusiasm, he stopped, "i meant i need to show him the details to get a decision. I will not steal your idea of course." he suddenly felt embarrassed. The more he spoke he felt like he was making it wrong but Nora laughed instead.

Victor blinked and looked at her. She was indeed a femme fatale. Even her laughter made his heart skip a beat.

"Why are you being so serious? We are friends, of course I trust you that you will not steal my idea." They were friends? The words made Victor flush but he still nodded. He wanted to leave instantly but now that she had called him friend, he decided to finish the lunch with her at least no matter how tiring it would be.
