Lost in Obsession by Brianna Novel Full Chapters

Chapter 3

Scott was quite capable. When Lucie was with him, she could totally unwind.

So, after thinking it over for a bit, she finally said yes.

Scott came to pick up Lucie.

Before hopping in the car, Lucie asked Scott, “Could you just crash at my place?”

She wanted to get a good night’s sleep after her long day without messing up tomorrow’s morning interview.

Scott’s knuckles were tapping on the steering wheel absentmindedly. In the dim light, his deep black eyes sparkled. He looked at Lucie by the car door and grinned, saying, “Your place is a bit small; you know.”

Lucie hesitated, biting her lip.

Watching her, Scott suddenly changed his mind. He turned off the car and got out.

Lucie was amazed by his decision.

Scott walked around the car towards her and said, “Get in!”

As soon as he said it, he headed toward the apartment building, and Lucie nervously followed.

Once inside the house, Scott passionately kissed Lucie.

Lucie dodged and stammered, “I’ve sweated a lot today and haven’t showered yet.”

Scott eased his grip slightly and smirked, “I don’t mind.”

Lucie looked down, staying quiet.

Scott stared at her for a few moments, then chuckled, suggesting, “Shall we go together?”

Lucie quickly shook her head. “The bathroom is too small.”

“Small spaces can be exciting. Come on.” Scott picked up Lucie like a child and headed straight for the bathroom.

***

After spending over two hours in the bathroom, Lucie was exhausted. In the end, Scott had to drag her out, and she was in tears.

She was completely worn out.

Scott placed Lucie on the couch and went to find a hairdryer to dry her hair. While he was at it, Lucie fell asleep on the armrest. The hairdryer buzzed above her head for about ten minutes, but she didn’t wake up.

After putting down the hairdryer, Scott couldn’t help but laugh when he saw how deeply Lucie was sleeping.

Scott couldn’t resist leaning down and lightly biting her luscious red lips.

Lucie made a soft sound and slapped Scott’s face.

Instantly, Scott’s expression darkened.

Without any mercy, he took off Lucie’s towel and forcefully woke her up.

Lucie was frightened, crying and begging intermittently.

Finally, after her soft pleas, Scott was satisfied.

He carried Lucie to the bed.

As soon as Lucie lay down, she fell asleep, while Scott was wide awake and not at all sleepy.

The desk lamp was on, the computer was running, and there was a notebook on the desk.

Scott walked over and casually picked up the notebook. It was neatly filled with pages, all about things related to Sleight Technology.

Scott moved the mouse, and the computer screen lit up, displaying Sleight Technology’s official website.

Suddenly, Scott smirked.

He turned around, glanced at the deeply sleeping Lucie on the bed, and then left after getting dressed.

***

Lucie’s interview was set for 10 a.m.

She woke up early and visited the hospital, spending time with her younger sister before heading to Sleight Technology.

Finding Sleight Technology’s office building was a breeze. It had been built a few years ago and had a unique style, even earning the nickname “sky city,” becoming a landmark in Jedon City.

When Lucie arrived, the receptionist checked the list of interviewees and guided her to a waiting area outside the HR department.

There were more than a dozen people in the lounge, dressed sharply. Compared to them, Lucie felt like a high school student.

Not only did she look young and inexperienced, but her outfit was also a bit outdated.

Fortunately, Lucie had prepared well, and the first round of the HR interview went smoothly.

After others finished their interviews, they were told to wait for further instructions.

Lucie expected the same, but unexpectedly, one of the HR department managers called her over.

“Are you Lucie Barton?” The HR manager, a woman in her thirties, examined Lucie from head to toe with a critical eye.

Lucie nodded. “Yes, that’s me.”

The female manager raised an eyebrow and asked, “What’s your connection with our vice president?”

Vice president?

Lucie shook her head. “I don’t know him.”

The female manager snorted, her cold gaze barely concealed. She then said to Lucie, “Follow me.”

Afterward, she walked straight to the elevator, leaving Lucie puzzled. Lucie quickly followed behind.
