Chapter 375 Dinner



Chapter 375 Dinner

  "What do you think?" Lucy asked as she walked into the bedroom to join Tom, but she stopped to admire his outfit when she noticed that he was dressed and looked almost ready to leave. 

  "Just so you can keep falling for me," Tom said as he continued to look at the dress she was wearing with thoughtful eyes.

  "What? You don\'t like the dress?" Lucy asked with a slight frown as she looked down at the simple blue halter knee-length dress she was wearing. 

  "I don\'t think there is a thing you would wear that I wouldn\'t love. My eyes are biased when it comes to you," Tom said, and Lucy blushed slightly.

  "But what?" She asked, knowing he wasn\'t satisfied.

  "It\'s nothing serious. I wasn\'t planning on wearing a blazer but seeing how exposed your dress is, I was trying to figure out what blazer to take along with me in case you get cold. I don\'t want to ruin your outfit," Tom said, and Lucy smiled as she walked up to him and embraced him.

  "You are too sweet," Lucy said as she ran her hands up his back. 

  "And we are going to be very late if you keep that up," Tom said as he kissed her forehead and pulled away from her. 

  "We have less than thirty minutes left. It\'s past 7 PM already," Tom said as he walked into the closet to find a blazer, while Lucy went to the dressing table to add some finishing touches to her face and hair. 

  By the time Tom stepped out of the closet ten minutes later, wearing a black blazer over his shirt, she was dabbing some perfume on her wrist, and he smiled as he went to stand behind her.

  She had let her hair down and was wearing her green-colored contact lens instead of her glasses, "You are beautiful," he said as he brushed her hair to the side and kissed her neck. 

  "Thank you," she said with a smile directed at his reflection in the mirror, "And don\'t think I have not noticed how you are extra pleased whenever I let my hair down or leave my glasses," Lucy said, and Tom grinned. 

  "Feel free to tell me something you would like me to do in return each time you do it," Tom said, and Lucy smirked.

  "I will keep that in mind," she promised as she walked away from him and went to sit on the couch so she could put on her pair of high-heeled nude sandals. 

  Tom followed her and crouched down in front of her as he took the sandals from her, "Let me help you with that," he said as he helped her buckle her sandals.

  Lucy giggled suddenly, and Tom looked up at her, "What\'s funny?"

  "I just remembered that I was supposed to teach you how to be an ideal boyfriend," she said with amidst her laughter, and Tom chuckled as he straightened up.

  "You are doing a good job, don\'t you think?" Tom asked as he held out his hand to help her up, and Lucy shook her head as he pulled her up. 

  "You are such a crook. You tricked me into being your girlfriend with that lame excuse," Lucy said with mock indignation.

  "I\'m so ashamed of myself," Tom said, facepalming himself, and she smiled. 

  "You should be. Let\'s leave now," Lucy said as she took his hand and pulled him towards the door.

  Once they got downstairs, they met Samantha in the dining eating with Jamal, and Tom watched in amusement as the kid stood up once he saw Lucy and approached them.

  "You look different," Jamal observed, and Lucy smiled at him.

  "I do? Good different or bad different?"

  He shrugged, "It\'s your hair. I like you better with your hair up and your glasses," Jamal said, and Tom glared at the kid while Lucy smiled at him. 

  "So you don\'t think I look good right now?" She asked curiously.

  "You look good. But I like your glasses," Jamal said, and Lucy bent forward and kissed his cheek.

  "You are such a little gentleman. Thank you," she said with a pleased smile as she stepped back and turned to Tom.

  "Will you tuck me in and read me bedtime stories if I\'m still awake when you get back?" Jamal asked, causing her to turn to him again. 

  "Bedtime stories?" Lucy asked, not because she didn\'t know what it meant but because she was surprised that he was asking that of her. 

  "Yes. Please?" Jamal asked, and Lucy looked at Tom, who just looked back at her without saying a word.

  She cleared her throat as she flashed Jamal a smile, "Sure. I will," she promised, and Jamal smiled at them both before returning to the table, while Tom gave instructions to Samantha before leading Lucy away. 

  "If you are not comfortable with the kid\'s request, you don\'t have to do it," Tom assured her once they were seated in the car.

  "I was taken aback, not necessarily uncomfortable. Reading him a bedtime story isn\'t a big deal," Lucy said confidently, and Tom nodded as he turned on the car\'s ignition and drove off. 

  Thirty minutes later, they arrived at the restaurant, and both Harry and his father stood up when they saw Tom and Lucy approaching their table, "I\'m sorry we kept you waiting. It was my..."

  "Don\'t bother with the apology. A lovely lady like you is worth waiting for," Aaron cut in smoothly with a broad smile, making Lucy smile back.

  "I\'m Aaron Jonas, the proud father to this shamelessly single young man standing beside me. Call me Aaron," Aaron said as he extended a hand to Lucy, and Lucy giggled as she placed her hand in his, and he bowed as he lifted it to his lips. 

  "Your dad has dangerous moves. You should take some lessons from him," Tom whispered to Harry as he eyed Aaron.

  "I\'m Lucinda Perry, the proud girlfriend to this dashing man standing beside me. It\'s nice to meet you, Aaron," Lucy said with a bright smile as she lowered herself to the seat, which Tom held out for her while Harry rolled his eyes. Tom and Lucy were both a very annoying pair. 

  Once Lucy was seated, Harry sat down while Tom shook hands with Aaron, "You don\'t look like you aged a day since we last met."

  "I wish that were true," Aaron said with a chuckle as he slapped Tom\'s back fondly, and they both sat down.

  "I should officially introduce you to my..."

  "Relax, Tom. I know she is your Jewel already," Aaron said, much to the amusement of Tom and Lucy.

  It was obvious that Harry had been gossiping about them to his father, and Lucy was curious to know what he had said to his father. 

  "I heard you did a lot of silly things to get her," Aaron said with a grin.

  "Please do not remind me," Tom said, and Aaron laughed. 

  "It\'s good to see you again, Tom. I only wish you had gotten your friend a girlfriend while getting yourself one," he whispered to Tom loud enough for everyone to hear, and they all laughed apart from Harry, who had a scowl on his face. 

  "I\'m very well capable of getting myself a girlfriend! Besides, I already told you I have a date," Harry reminded his father as he signaled a waiter over. 

  "Oh, yeah! You did say so. Why did I forget? I must have become too used to you being single to remember that," Aaron said with a sigh.

  "With the girl Jade hooked you up with? I thought you said you weren\'t interested?" Tom asked, and Aaron raised a brow. 

  "Your sister hooked him up with a lady?" He asked curiously.

  Harry shot his dad a look, but thankfully before any of them could speak, the waiter came, and they all had to give their orders. Once they were done, Harry turned his attention to Lucy, wanting to shift the discussion away from himself.

  "Did you enjoy the short movie I sent you, Lulu?" Harry asked, and Lucy smiled at him. 

  "Yes, I did. Thank you. I owe you one..."

  "You don\'t owe him anything," Tom cut in, and Harry chuckled. 

  "Yeah, you don\'t owe me anything. We are friends after all," Harry said as he winked at Lucy, who giggled while Tom eyed him unpleasantly. 

  "I wonder how you both manage to run such a successful company," Aaron said with a tsk.

  "So tell me, Tom\'s Jewel. What did you see in this punk?" He asked, jerking his head towards Tom, and Lucy smiled. 

  "He is good-looking," Lucy said with a shrug, and Tom looked at her with a bewildered look on his face.

  "That\'s what you saw?" Tom asked, and she bobbed her head, making both Harry and Aaron laugh. 

  "I agree with you, Lulu. He is just a pretty face," Harry said with a chuckle. 

  "He\'s not just a pretty face. There\'s a lot more to him than that. But his pretty face was what first attracted me to him physically," Lucy explained, and Tom sighed in relief, making Aaron smile. 

  "I\'m curious about something, though. How did you not know that Tom was your driver regardless of the disguise?"

  "I can see Harry already bared his soul to you. He can\'t just keep secrets," Tom said dryly as he scowled at Harry.

  "He bitterly complained about how you keep flaunting your relationship. And he said the word you said most today was \'My Jewel\'. He also said even if he wasn\'t interested in getting into a relationship, just to get back at you, he was going to get a girlfriend," Aaron said with a chuckle, and both Tom and Lucy laughed as two waiters arrived with drinks for them. 

  "At least it\'s not hard to see why I can\'t keep your secrets. Don\'t blame me. It\'s a hereditary condition," Harry said dryly, and Lucy laughed.

  Once the waiters had left, Aaron looked at Lucy, "So tell me. How couldn\'t you have known that it was the same person? I mean the height, the body build, gait, something should have given him away," Aaron said, and Lucy grinned. 

  "Are you honestly asking why I didn\'t suspect that the supposed very busy CEO of a successful company as I-Global enterprise had enough time and energy to disguise himself and double as my driver? Of all things to be, my driver?" Lucy asked incredulously, and both Harry and Aaron laughed heartily.

  "Perfect response. You have a point," Aaron said with a nod of approval. 

  "The things we do for love," Tom said pathetically. 

  "Yeah, the foolish things you did," Harry said with a shake of his head. 

  "At least I have a girlfriend. You don\'t," Tom said, and Harry smirked. 

  "I\'m going to surprise you soon. Don\'t worry, and just wait for it."
