Chapter 282 I Have a Boyfriend Already
“I have a boyfriend already!”
“Oh Congrats, Ms. Staber”
As soon as Lucy finished speaking, a deep male voice echoed in
This voice is so familiar….
Lucy immediately lifted her head and met Lennon’s deep-set eyes.
Their gazes locked for a second before Lucy turned away. “Cherise, you don’t have to make the call anymore. He’s here.”
Cherise turned around to see Lennon leaning against an ornate stone pillar while gazing at Lucy
She smiled and waved at Lennon. “Hey, we’re just about to look for you. Come over here!”
Lennon chuckled and walked over to sit beside Cherise. “Here for a free meal again?“
Cherise blushed. “Don’t put it that way. I-I’m just here with Lucy for a casual dinner.”
Then, she looked at Lucy, hoping to get her support. After all, Lucy had a ready tongue that could outwit anyone.
But to her surprise, Lucy’s cheeks were even redder than hers!
“Ms. Staber, are you unwell?” Frowning, Lennon habitually felt Lucy’s forehand with his palm. “Looks like you’re having a fever.”
He snapped his fingers elegantly, and a server hurried over. “Yes, boss.”
“Bring us some medicine for fever.”
He arched his brows when he noticed the bottle of red wine in front of Cherise. “And some hangover medicine.”
In no time, the server returned with the items. Lennon received the medicine with his slender fingers and placed them in front of Lucy gracefully. “Ms. Staber, can you take the medicine yourself?”
Lucy stared at him in a daze and pressed her lips. “I’m not sick.”
Lennon lifted his brows. “Why is your face so hot if you’re not having a fever? Could it be that you’re shy seeing me?”
Lucy closed her eyes and did not respond.
Lennon put on a half-smile. I believe I’ve made it very clear the other day. Since you already have a boyfriend now, and I’m getting along well with my blind date today, you should your interest in me and cherish your boyfriend.”

After saying that, he poured himself a glass of wine and downed it. Then, he stood up and said. “This meal is on me, Cherise. You can order whatever you like. I have to go now.”
With that, Lennon left.
Cherise wasn’t a fool and had noticed something was off between Lucy and Lennon.
She looked at Lucy and mumbled, “Lucy, you guys..
She knew their relationship must be more complicated than it looked on the surface.
Lucy claimed she had a boyfriend, while Lennon mentioned he was getting along well with his date. However, neither of them appeared to be happy.
Lucy was drinking non-stop after Lennon left.
Cherise furrowed her brows and snatched the wine glass from her. “Stop drinking already!”
Lucy had lost her mother when she was young, and her father had been strict in raising her. So, she rarely drank. Even if she did, she knew how to control herself, unlike now.
“Didn’t you say you have a boyfriend already? But look at you now. Why do you look like you’ve had a heartbreak?” Cherise asked.
