The thought of Serena Summers despising him sent a sudden pang of pain through Lucas Shaw's heart.
Lucas Shaw lowered his gaze, his fingertips lightly brushing over his chest, a trace of dark, inscrutable light flickering through his pitch-black eyes.
The moment Brandon Reese stepped into the CEO's office, he felt a strong chill.
He shivered involuntarily and quickly walked up to the desk.
"Lord, this is all of Everett Parker's information, including every last detail. There's also..."
Brandon stole a glance at the austere face of Lucas Shaw, hesitating for a moment, unsure if he should continue.
Lucas Shaw lifted his eyes slightly, narrowing them, and a cold glare shot out towards him.
"What else?"
"And there seems to have been a past...between Everett Parker and his wife."
Before he could finish, Lucas Shaw abruptly closed the folder in his hand.
His aura turned fiercely cold, oppressively stifling.
