CHAPTER 501

Lucas was speechless. Dr. Shefford has such a sharp tongue!

Meanwhile, the furious Allison glared at Leigh and wanted to kill her so badly, but she was contained by the police and couldn't do anything. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Even though she struggled and bawled her eyes out, she was still taken away by the police in the end.

At that moment, Arthur's face was as pale as a sheet. There was nothing he could say when they had reached the end of everything. At last, he left the place in dejection.

"Let me bring you to the hospital, Rowan," Lucas said in guilt. "I was not considerate enough for not locking the door, making you go through this incident."

Hearing that, Rowan quickly replied, "It's not your fault, Mr. Lucas. It was just a coincidence. Please don't blame yourself. I still haven't thanked you for taking care of me."

"Okay, okay. Let's drop the formalities, shall we? Why be so formal when we're all on the same side?" Leigh patted Rowan casually on the shoulder. "There's no need to go to the hospital. Don't forget that I'm here."

"Wouldn't it be better for him to run some tests in the hospital?" Lucas asked out of curiosity. "Rowan looks like he's badly injured. Who knows if he has any internal injury? I'll only be at ease after someone professional makes sure he's Alright."

Feeling apologetic, he insisted on sending Rowan to the hospital for a thorough checkup. Since Rowan couldn't refuse such kindness, he went to the hospital along with Madison and Lucas.

"Your Young Master Lucas is quite a nice person. No wonder he could win your heart," Leah whispered in Leigh's ear. "He doesn't only have the looks, but he has such a great aura, and he's so kind and elegant. He even has some chicness, which is especially attractive to girls. Although he appears to be aloof and difficult to be close with, his attitude toward employees in our firm is so nice."

In the eyes of an outsider, they were just employees of the Oasis Law Office who didn't have any special identities, but Lucas was the Young Master of the Hart Family. Even with his dignified status, Lucas had no airs and graces when he interacted with them. Not only was he easygoing, but he also treated people sincerely. Leigh really had good taste in men.

"Of course. Or else, why would I fall for him? I won't even look at those ordinary men." Leigh raised her chin proudly. "By the way, the Hart Family is really good at raising their children. All the children in the family are not bad…"

Then, she used her shoulder to poke Leah. "So, you need to up your game. Don't let Kieran get away!"

Hearing that, Leah said, "You're saying like I hold some deep hatred against Kieran."

"That's not wrong either." Leigh agreed with a smile. "Aren't all married couples enemies to each other? Have you not heard what you should do to your enemy in 'Love Thy Enemies'? You're going to be Kieran's enemy in the future!"

"Lower your voice! Things haven't even started between us yet. If anyone hears you say such nonsense, they will laugh at us so badly!" Leah snapped back after hearing the sudden comment.

"It's natural for besties to say whatever comes to their minds when they are together. What is there to be laughed at?" Leigh wrapped her hand around Leah's shoulder. "I think you and Kieran are made for each other. Among the Hart Family's siblings, Grayson is not as good as the others. I'm not saying that he's not good, but it's just that he has bad taste. This is also the reason why he is made for Caitlin! You and Kieran have never been in a relationship before, but Caitlin and Grayson both have exes. They won't mind that when they're together!"

At this moment, Leah turned speechless. Dr. Shefford really has everything planned out.

After everything that happened, the sky had already turned dark when they went home.

As for Quincy and Joel, the bodyguards had already sent them back to Hart Manor.

Philip took some time off work and finally had time to stay home because of Sebastian and Madeline's wedding. With that, the two children had been staying over at Philip's for the past few days, so Sebastian and Madeline didn't need to worry about them at all.

After Madeline returned to her bedroom and took a shower, she thought that it was about time for her to give Lucas a call to ask him about Rowan's condition.

"Everything's fine. He doesn't have any internal injuries," Lucas stated calmly. "Don't worry, Madeline. We've already left the hospital and are going back now."

"Thank you, Lucas." It was supposed to be her responsibility, but someone else helped out, so she was beyond thankful.

"It's what I should do," Lucas replied. "I was not considerate enough and didn't take good care of your

friend. That's why something like this happened tonight."

"That's not true. Tonight's matter was just an accident. No one had any idea about it. You've already done enough. Thank you so much, Lucas." From the bottom of her heart, she believed he was a good person.

He had her best interest in mind, planning his every movement with caution, and he treated others so sincerely. All in all, he was definitely a person whom she could trust.

After she hung up the phone, Sebastian, who was leaning against the headboard in his nightwear, commented, "Just talk to him frankly next time. There's no need to be so formal with him."

"I did talk frankly." Madeline lay down beside him. "Although Rowan's accident was a shame, I think everyone wasn't too happy because they all had fun before that happened. All your friends are nice, and Lucas is really nice too. He made me look so good. There wasn't anything that upset me."

"Lower your voice! Things haven't even started between us yet. If anyone hears you say such nonsense, they will laugh at us so badly!" Leah snapped back after hearing the sudden comment.

Her firm's employees came from different worlds than Sebastian's childhood friends, so she was worried that a scene of rich people looking down on ordinary people would happen and that things would go wrong before she went there. However, it was out of her expectations that both parties got along so well.

Sebastian's childhood friends even took the initiative to go to their room and toast them, making a great impression.

Although the employees of her firm were not from wealthy families like Sebastian's childhood friends, they were all people from different walks of life. Hence, they weren't nervous at all, and both parties had an enjoyable time talking to each other.

All in all, the dinner tonight was still a success. Other than the unlucky Rowan meeting Allison, everything else was perfect.

"Isn't making you look good what they ought to do?" Sebastian wrapped his arm around her shoulder and rubbed her shoulder with his palm. "Even I need to make you look good. What reason is there for them not to?"

Hearing that, Madeline was totally speechless.

When he saw her speechless expression, he lowered his head and chuckled. Then, he tilted his head and kissed her. "I realize that you're terrible at talking. Look at you! You fall silent so easily. How did you start a business with such bad eloquence?"

"It's different, alright? When I'm doing business, I just need to be honest. There won't be people who will say cheesy things all the time like you." She couldn't help but point out the flaws in his argument.

After some thought, Sebastian nodded. "True that! If your client says anything cheesy to you, it means that he's hitting on you. I'll need to teach him a lesson then."

He was so charismatic and showed a strong sense of possessiveness, making Madeline fall for him more and more.

No matter how many times she looked at him, she would always feel that he was the best man and the

most charismatic man she had ever seen. Better yet, this was his man. I'm so lucky!

Meanwhile, Sebastian stared at her with a mere smile in his eyes. "I can tell that you desire me."

Hearing that, Madeline was perplexed.

"It's okay. I allow you to do so." He chuckled. "After all, we are legally married. You're the only person in the world who can legally desire me."

Then, he turned around and pressed her under him while kissing her softly. With a teasing voice, he said, "You can now turn your desire into action…"

At this moment, she was speechless once again. Who's desiring who now?!
