Once they had introduced themselves, Lucy set aside the papers she was holding and gave Matthew a soft smile.

"Did you manage to grab something to eat on your way here?" Matthew gazed at Lucy fondly. "Nope, I was waiting for you to finish work." Lucy let out a sigh. "You have to eat well even when I'm not around. What if you upset your stomach?" She was about to lead Matthew and Charlie to the company cafeteria for a quick bite when she turned to Charlie. "Mr. Jennings, any foods you don't eat? I can let the kitchen know. And what's your favorite food? I'll have them whip up a special plate for you." Charlie, hearing this, had to hold back a laugh. She was being so thoughtful, but the way Matthew was showing off their love was worthy of an eye roll.

Matthew caught the look on Charlie's face and gave him a cool glance.

"Don't worry about it. No need to ask him what he wants." What? Lucy looked at Matthew, her face a picture of confusion. She thought, 'He's your buddy, isn't he? Aren't you going to ask him what he'd like? Is this how guys are with each other?' Matthew, not wanting to look bad in front of Lucy, took a moment to explain.

"This guy's a real picky eater. He won't touch onions, garlic, eggplants, or any meat that's too flavorful. But if you sneak sgarlic paste into a dish, he's okay with it. He's got a whole list of food no-nos. He doesn't eat plenty of things." Lucy was totally confused.

She had heard that rich kids could be fussy with food, but this was something else.

She took a deep breath and looked at Charlie.

He was her husband's friend, after all. She could not just leave him hanging.

"What about seafood? If I have the kitchen whip up sgravy that doesn't use onions, garlic, and ginger, would that work?" Lucy thought it over and offered a suggestion to Charlie.

Charlie was so grateful he almost wanted to grovel at her feet. Lucy was so kind and caring, nothing like the cold Matthew. Lucy was such a good person. How did Matthew ever get so lucky to marry her? "Thanks, Lucy. I'm good with seafood." Lucy breathed a sigh of relief and told the kitchen to start on a seafood feast.

She also made sure they prepared sof Matthew's favorites.

When the food was ready, the three of them sat down to eat.

They ate quietly without talking.

After they finished eating, they got to the real issue of the day.

"Lucy, Matthew mentioned your company's got strouble with a plagiarismclaim. Can you fillin on the details?"

Lucy looked at Charlie, who seemed so different now, with surprised expression.

Charlie pulled out a pair of gold-rimmed glasses from his bag, put them on, and stood up straight. The playful tone in his voice was gone, replaced by a serious and professional air. He looked every bit the world's most top-notch lawyer. RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
