Jen's lack of appetite did not last too long, as she started feeling hungry just a few a hours later. She made herself some cereal and sat in front of the tv to eat as she absentmindedly watched the program that was playing.

Once she was done, she went to get ready to visit her restaurant. She felt bored at the thought of staying home all day to wait for Lucas. So, she called Lucas to ask if she could borrow his car. Lucas was in his office going through some proposals that he needed to approve with a shallow smile on his face.

When his phone started ringing, the smile on his face grew even wider when he saw the caller id. Martin excused himself and left Lucas's office to let him talk to his girlfriend comfortably. That, and he also did not want to be reminded of how single he was.

"Hello?" Lucas said as he picked up Jen's call while his eyes continued to browse through the documents that he had been reading.

"Hi, how is work?" she asked and couldn't help but smile at the very obviously happy tone of his voice.

"It's busy, have you had breakfast?" Lucas asked as he remembered how she nibbled on a few pieces of fruit that morning.

"Mmmh, I just finished eating. I wanted to go to my restaurant later, I was asking if I can borrow your car," Jen said as she played with her hair. She couldn't stop herself from doing so since she suddenly didn't know where to put her hands.

"Go ahead, the key is on the bedside table," Lucas answered easily. Jen chatted with him for a bit more before the call ended. After receiving approval from Lucas, Jen finished up with her makeup before taking her purse and leaving the suite.

The trip to the underground garage didn't take long and soon she was driving an suv out of the hotel. Jen then drove to her restaurant without notice, as a true boss would, and was satisfied to see that it was running perfectly.

She hung around the kitchen with the chefs and tasted a couple of foods they wanted to introduce to the menu and as expected, in the end, only two ended up to pass and a few needed to be revised, others were directly rejected.

After hanging around the restaurant for a few hours, she asked the chefs to make the new menu as she went to make something else in the kitchen and asked for them to pack everything.

After all the food was ready, Jen took the fancy bags the containers were put in and said goodbye to her staff before leaving. Jen drove to Lucas's office and called when she was downstairs.

Lucas was in the middle of his meeting with a few managers and directors in charge of their most recent project, when he received a call. When he saw Jen was the one calling, he raised his hand to pause the presentation and picked up the phone.

"Hello?" Lucas said after answering the phone.

"Mmmh, have you eaten?" Jen asked as she had just impulsively decided to come to his office.

"Not yet," Lucas answered honestly.

"I brought you lunch, if you aren't busy we can have it together," Jen suggested and silently waited for his response. She was mostly worried that he was not in his office.

"Okay, I'll send someone to pick you up at the lobby," Lucas said and pointedly looked at Martin who then promptly left the meeting room.

"Okay, I'll see you soon," Jen responded and a relieved smile appeared on her face. After saying good bye to Lucas, she got out of the car and picked up their lunch from the backseat before making her way to the office building.

Martin spotted her the moment she went through the large sliding doors and went to take the bags she was carrying.

"Hi Martin," Jen said as she handed the bags over and smiled at him in thanks.

"Hello Miss Larson, this way please," Martin said and led her to the elevator.

Meanwhile, Lucas was pressurizing the person who had been giving a presentation before with his gaze. Fortunately, she did not have much of it left as she had already addressed most of the important things that needed to be addressed.

But being on the receiving end of such a sharp and impatient gaze would make anyone nervous. The lady quickly finished her presentation and after being told to submit it to Lucas's office, Lucas stood up and left after leaving more instructions.

Lucas made a beeline for his office after leaving the meeting, and after bypassing all of those people who were working outside his office without even a greeting, he walked into his office.

Jen was taking out the containers out of the bags when Lucas walked in and she could not help but smile back at his wide smile. Lucas carelessly flung the door shut behind him as he walked to her and held her in his arms.

"Someone looks excited to see me," Jen said as she rested her hands on his chest.

"I definitely am," Lucas answered and pushed a few stray hairs away from her face. Jen closed her eyes for a bit before looking up at him and Lucas, as if he was unable to help himself, he leaned forward and kissed her lips. Jen closed her eyes again and smiled helplessly when he did this.

Lucas lightly nibbled on her smiling lips before letting her go. He did not want to kiss her too deeply because they might as well forget about their lunch.

"Did you have fun by yourself?" Lucas asked against her lips and Jen nodded before pecking his lips and moving away from him.

"What did you do?" Lucas asked as he went to sit down next to her.

"I went to the restaurant, tried out some new menus, also made you a few dishes," Jen said as she finished taking out the containers and placing them on the coffee table while Lucas was opening them up one by one as if they were a bunch of gifts she brought for him.

"What is this?" Lucas as he saw an unfamiliar dish.

"You should try it later, it really stimulated my appetite," Jen said as she placed the last container on the table before looking at Lucas who was eagerly opening them up.
