Second Lead Syndrome: A Second Chance Chapter 261 - Becca Wang

After dinner, everyone chatted for a while before it was time for Kris and Madam Li to leave.

Lena did not go back to her apartment that night and slept at her parents' house. Lena was happy that her parents did not grill Kris too much. Regardless, nothing was a pressure for a man like Kris.

For the next few days, Kris dropped Lena off at work and picked her up.

It was Thursday and the Shen Annual party was on Sat.u.r.day. Tomorrow, all the workers had a paid break. Lena had plans to leave early today at work so she can get her dress for the event.

"Miss. Shen, there is a lady who requested to come to see you, but she has no appointment." Diane knocked on her door.

"Did you get her name?"

"Yes. Becca w.a.n.g?"

Becca? Lena wondered what the woman was doing here... but she knew that Becca can only be bad news. "Tell her I am busy. See can get an appointment if she wants to see me."

Diane nodded and went back out.

Lena continued to work until it was lunchtime. She put her work away and made sure to text Kris to remember to eat too. She grabbed her bag and head out for lunch. James followed her as she heads out.

As she opened exited out of the main doors, Lena spot Becca. The woman must have been waiting for her since this morning.

"Miss. Shen!" Becca rushed up to Lena. "Or do you want me to call you Lady Boss?"

James sixth senses flared up. This unknown woman was not a typical woman. She has dangerous all over her.

"You can call me Lena." Lena smiled. "Well, as long as my boyfriend isn't here."

"Ahaha..." Becca awkwardly smiled. She knew that Lena was just rubbing in the term boyfriend at her. "Well, I was just wondering if we can have a chat? It's your lunch, right? I can treat."

"Well, it would be rude if I did not take that offer. After all, you must have waited all morning."

"I pa.s.sed a place when I came here, it's nearby. Would that work?" Becca asked.

"That's fine." Lena turned around and looked at James. "You can go take your lunch yourself."

"Yes." James was reluctant to let Lena go... but he knew Lena was saying that. He would still stay close to Lena.

Lena walked with Becca until they arrived at a small diner. It was not very busy so Lena and Becca were able to get a quick seat. They ordered their food and just waiting for them to be served.

"You wanted to talk to me about something?" Lena started the conversation.

"Yes... well, I don't know if Kris had told you yet or not?"

"He has not told me anything."

"Oh.. well, I am staying at the Li Mansion with Madam Li. I just didn't want you to misunderstand anything because I am staying there."

Lena smiled. "I am glad you found somewhere to stay. I would not misunderstand anything. After all, it's not like Kris goes there anymore anyways..."

"What do you mean?"

"Ah... you must have not heard. Kris is ban from going home until Madam Li gets grandchildren."

"Ahaha... don't think about it too much. It's just the old people saying stuff. When Kris gives me a bigger ring, then we'll consider kids." Lena touched the small ring on her finger.

"Mhnnn" Becca cleared her throat. "Honestly... I don't know how you attracted Kris."

Just as Becca said that the server brought their food over and placed them on the table. Lena put the napkin on her lap.

"Why...?" Lena cut her meat. "You think that just because you grew up with him... that he suddenly is yours?"

"That's not what I mean. Do you seriously are worthy to be with him? You still have your bodyguard trailing you around."

Lena put down her eating utensils. "You know what is funny? You are probably the 100th person to ask me if I am deserving to be next to Kris... and honestly, you're all looking at this the wrong way. The question should be... is HE deserving to be next to me."

"And you know what else...? If it's not me, then who is worthy enough? You?" Lena chuckled. "Please, you wouldn't even last a second of being his woman."

"You think you're so good... but you're just weak. I have more skills needed to be with Kris."

"Weak? What skill do you have that I don't? I mean... I can list a whole encyclopedia of things that I can do and you can't."

Becca thought about it.. and then she smiled. "The art of seduction."

"Hmm?" Lena played dumb.

"You see that man that has been staring at us since we entered? Without even talking to him... I can make him pay for our meal."

Becca smiled and looked at the young man. He winked at her and she smiled seductively at him. She turned back to continue eating but every once and a while, glance back at him.

After they were done eating, the waitress came to clean the table.

"The young man over there already paid for your bill. He also asked me to pa.s.s a note to you." The waitress handed the receipt and note to Becca and then left.

Becca opened the note and then crumbled it up. She was just playing with him. "See, I got the bill covered."

Lena giggled. Becca looked at her... confused.

"The art of seduction?" Lena let out a soft giggle again. "We call that, a one-night stand. Has a man ever lasted more than one night or date with you? Seems like you don't know about men much... they don't look at how many men you slept with... but how long you lasted with your last one. Too many men... you're considered a woman who can't keep a man nor her hole close."

"You!!"

Lena smiled at her. "Watch and learn... I will show you how it's done."

Lena gently got up. She walked over to a man who was sitting on the counter instead of a table. She tapped him on the shoulder. As he turned to look at her, Lena swiped his wallet.

"Yes?" He looked at Lena.

"Sorry. I think this is your wallet?" Lena smiled sweetly at him and handed him his wallet.

"Oh! I didn't even know I dropped it." He laughed and scratched his head. "Thanks for bringing it back to me."

"I found it just a while ago. I looked to see if there was an ID so I can hand it to the workers. But I noticed that it was you... it's hard to forget a handsome face."

The young man smiled and blushed slightly. "You're pretty too."

"Thanks... well, I have to go now. My friend is still waiting for me." Lena pointed to Becca and turned around.

"Ah, wait." The young man got out of his chair and held Lena's hand back. "Can I... you know.. maybe buy you lunch or dinner next time?"

"Hmm?"

The young man shyly released Lena's hand. "What am I saying, I didn't even introduce my self yet. Ian." He extended his hand for Lena.

"Lena." Lena shooked his hand.

"But anyway... Like I said, maybe lunch or dinner? Just to say thanks for picking up my wallet and returning it to me?"

Lena gave him an innocent smile. "Sure."

"Great! Here's my phone number."

They both exchange numbers and then Lena left. Becca already left the table and stood out the door, watching Lena.

Lena did not want to play the poor young man... but she needed to show Becca that she was not any level below her.

When she walked out, Lena smirked at Becca.

"If you want to even compete with me... start thinking about being with a man... not just getting in bed with them."

Lena swung her hair at Becca and left. Lena did not get to eat much... but she was glad that she was able to put Becca in her place.

Lena walked back to the company but she did not get inside. She called Kris and he immediately picked up.

"Did you have lunch yet?" Lena asked him.

"Yes."

"You're not lying, right? If I look at the security cameras, I would see that you ate."

"Yes."

"I actually called you because I just gave my phone number to a hot young man."

"What?!!!"
