Chapter 7 Barter 2

Lucas took a deep breath. He sat and saw how the door of his room opens. Showing a scene where Velia came in with a clumsy look. Visible fret.

What's wrong with her?

"Sit down," Lucas said as Velia approached him.

Lucas waited a moment. A few seconds later Velia felt comfortably. Before on finally he asked curiously.

"What is it? Why did you suddenly want to meet with me?"

Velia's hands seemed to squeeze each other. Take courage, she asked Lucas.

"Did you fire me?"

The question immediately struck Lucas. "Fired you?" He asked. "Me?"

Velia gulped her saliva.

Then Lucas nodded. A grin rises on his face. As if just realized something.

So, because of this you come again to meet me, Ve?

Velia nodded. "Mr. Bell said that I was fired directly by the boss."

Lucas snorted. "I thought you came because you wanted to considering our relationship back, Ve. But apparently, I was wrong."

Velia's face froze. Her eyes blinked several times. "You know, we don't have any relationship anymore."

"There is still." Lucas looked at Velia without blinking. "You owe me an explanation, Ve. For your decision to leave me seven years ago. Remember? You left me without words. I still don't know why you ended our relationship."

Velia forced herself to keep breathing, even though it was hard. But her eyes did not blink when said.

"The relationship between us can never work out, Luc. You know that."

"Nonsense!" retorted Lucas. "Why? Was there another man you loved back then? You left me for another man?"

Trembling, but Velia still answered. "You can take it that way."

Immediately, the answer made Lucas squeeze the arm of the sofa he was sitting on.

"I've been looking for you everywhere, Ve, "Lucas said in a trembling voice. "Hope that our relationship can be reestablished even though we haven't seen each other for so long, but I was wrong. Looks like you haven't thought about me all this time."

Velia was silent.

"So ..., "Lucas said later. "... after throwing me away for years for a long time, you came here for work?"

Velia bit her lower lip. She knew for sure it sounded so embarrassing. But she had to endure the shame that seemed to burn her face, too. So, she nodded.

"I want my dismissal withdrawn, Luc."

Lucas shook his head once. Then, one hand that rests on the arm of the chair seemed to rub his chin that looked rough with a beard that would will grow.

"Are you ashamed of yourself like this, Hon?"

Lucas's question made Velia gulp her saliva. For a few seconds it seemed to go on for so long, in the end no one spoke between them. Until then, Lucas brought his field to stare at Velia's two eyeballs, clear sharply. No blinking. As if to stun the girl, before on finally Lucas's heavy voice sounded.

"You left me for years. Without explanation. Without the slightest news. And yesterday, when I finally met you after all these years, I foolishly thinking that you still have feelings for me. Thought that our relationship can continue. But you rejected me without even blinking."

Velia's breath felt tight as Lucas said word for word, which made oxygen was forcefully taken from her lungs. Suddenly, she felt how cold sweat splashed on his forehead.

"And now you're coming at me like we're two people's old friends who are used to helping each other. Hoping you can get back to work here."

Embarrassed, Velia's face looked sunken.

"I really never thought that you were such a shameless woman."

Velia knew it was very embarrassing. But she tried to stay hold on.

"You can take it that way, Luc."

Lucas's hands clenched tightly. The man's jaw seemed to tighten. As if he was holding back emotions that would be ready to explode. Then he said.

"You may have forgotten something, Hon."

Velia was silent for a moment. "What?"

"We are superiors and subordinates."

Lucas's words decisively made Velia freeze in place.

"Everything that happened between us is over, isn't it?" asked Lucas reverse. "And that means I don't have to consider anything to withdraw your dismissal decision at this company."

"Luc."

"Watch your words, Miss," Lucas snapped sharply.

Velia gulped her saliva. "Please."

Lucas expressionlessly looked at Velia. "I also begged you yesterday, Miss. But without blinking, you immediately rejected me."

"Luc."

"Call me politely." Lucas did not even blink when he spoke again. "You're just an employee here, Miss. It is not appropriate that you carelessly mention my name is."

Velia's body trembled. But, considering she had no other choice, ignored the shame and self-esteem.

"Please, Sir. Reconsider my dismissal."

"If you don't know," Lucas said. "For hiring and firing, I'm not taking care of it totally. You're in the wrong place to beg, Miss."

"Sir."

Lucas stood up. But Velia's blink of an eye also stood up to hold hands Lucas with both hands.

"I beg you."

Lucas lowered his gaze. Looking at Velia's face. Pair the clear eyes implies a deep hope. Even for categories a man who famously had no heart, Lucas could feel the despair in the bead.

Lucas was stunned. Listening to Velia's pleas while her footsteps were stopping for a moment made something cross his mind. He stared at Velia.

"Should we barter here?"

Velia's face water showed bewilderment. "Barter?"

A grin arose on Lucas's face. "Come back to me, Ve. And I'll give it back to your job."
