CHAPTER 59

  Aubrey's POV

  As we settled in our seats, I couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. We were heading back to London and I would no longer have to deal with Sophia and her dramas, but I was still stuck with Dario. We were now business partners.

  My gaze narrowed at the thought. What was grandfather thinking? And what would he get from this?

  Lucas, who was sitting next to me, held my hands. "A penny for your thoughts?" He asked, smiling. His voice, cool and soothing.

  Why does he have to be so cool and make my heart flutter? I thought, my face brightening up.

  "It's nothing to bother yourself about, Lucas." I replied smiling.

  As Lucas held my hands in his, gently caressing them, his eyes locked onto mine with an intense gaze. "I want to be involved in anything that has to do with you, Aubrey," he said, his voice low and solemn, sending shivers down my spine.
