Skyler checked her phone and saw that Chris was the one calling her, is something wrong ?
" Give me a moment " she said to Jared who breathed a sigh of relief as he knew that Skyler was going to punch him if her phone had not rang.
" Hey Chris " Skyler answered the call.
" Hi, are you there yet " Chris said.
" Yeah, How are you doing "
" I'm alive and kicking " Chris said and Skyler laughed.
Jared watched as Skyler talked over the phone to a guy whose voice he could hear very loud and clear due to his sharp hearing.
After the call ended, he saw her frown and pouting her lips while staring at the door.
" What's wrong " he asked her.
" Huh... Nothing " Skyler said biting her lips.
" Then why are you frowning "
" Am I frowning "
" Yeah, I can see your brows kissing each other " Jared said demostrating with his own perfectly carved brows.
" Okay.... The thing is that I have to go now and Lucas is not yet done with his meeting and I told him I'll wait for him " Skyler said.
" He will be done soon.....Let say 5 minutes from now " Jared said glancing at his wrist watch.
He could tell that Lucifer's mind is not completely in the meeting he's having with the board of directors, his mind was also here in the office.
" 5 minutes " Skyler said and Jared nodded.
" Okay then, I can wait till then " Skyler said and sat back on the chair looking outside from the glass window, she had finished her ice cream.
Jared grinned as he saw that Skyler had forgotten that she had wanted to punch him earlier, but then his luck ran out as Skyler stared at him with a smirk.
" What " he said.
" Back to what we were saying earlier, did you eavesdrop on me and Lucas conversation " Skyler said.
" Um... I don't know what you're talking about " Jared said and saw Skyler stood up from the chair again coming towards him.
" Well, let me help you remember " Skyler said and raised her fist to punch Jared and he shielded himself with his arms, not that it was going to hurt him but he had to pretend he was a human who could feel pains.
" Are you really going to punch me sweetheart " Jared said and gave her a wink and his charming smile while biting his lips sexily.
" You think I'm gonna fall for that, you just pulled my trigger darling " Skyler said and punched him so hard in his stomach.
Jared thought his charms were going to work on Skyler, he had forgotten that the girl in front of him was the devil's half side.
Skyler punched and hit him several times, Jared was surprised that her punch hurt for a lady like her, he felt a little pain as he was in his human skin.
" Ouch, that hurt you know "
" Next time you won't eavesdrop "
" I won't your majesty, please stop you're hurting me " Jared said pretending to be in pains.
Just as Skyler was hitting Jared, the door opened and Lucifer stepped in.
He frowned seeing Skyler hitting Jared and the way Skyler crossed her legs over Jared's thigh made Lucifer's face darkened.
" What's going on here " Lucifer said with his arms crossed.
" Help me Lucas, she just started punching me out of the blue, I didn't do anything " Jared said to free himself.
" He was eavesdropping on our conversation earlier and I punched him " Skyler said and got up from Jared, she failed to see Lucifer's face which had a deep frown.
" Jared " Lucifer called.
" Yes "
" I thought I told you not to disturb her "
" I didn't "
" Did he disturb you my angel " Lucifer turned to face Skyler.
Skyler turn to face Jared who was pleading with her with his eyes and she smiled inwardly.
" He didn't " she said to see Jared breathed a sigh of relief.
" Um.... I think I have something to do " Jared said and hurried out of the office to escape from Lucifer's dangerous glare.
When it was just Lucifer and Skyler in the office. Lucifer closed the door behind him and went to sit on his chair still frowning which Skyler noticed.
She sat on his table " Hey, why you frowning " she asked.
Lucifer looked at her with his arms crossed " I'm just gone for some time and I came back and saw you in another man's lap "
" Oh, I was hitting him with my fist not anything else " Skyler said rolling her eyes.
" What were you two doing "
" Nothing "
" Hmm "
" What are you thinking, honestly I've never seen anyone as jealous as you before " Skyler said.
" Hmm "
" I'm leaving " Skyler said to see Lucifer's reaction.
" Are you angry with me " Lucifer said.
" No, I got a call from my friend Chris, he's at the hospital so I'm going to see him and how's doing " Skyler said truthfully.
' Chris ' Lucifer said in his head " Let me take you there "
" No, it's okay I'll go by myself "
" Your boyfriend insist to take you there " Lucifer said and Skyler chuckled.
" Awwn such an adorable boyfriend I've got.....but I want to go alone, beside you still have work to do here in your company and I don't want to disturb you "
" You ain't disturbing me "
" Hmm " Skyler sighed
" Alright if you insist I won't force you " Lucifer finally agreed for her to go alone.

EVERGREEN HOSPITAL
Skyler got back to the hospital after an hour she left the company. She paid the taxi driver and got inside the hospital.
As usual after seeing the doctor, she went straight to Chris ward.
When she got inside the ward, she was surprised to see Chris already dressed in a black shirt and black pants.
The devices fixed in his body were already taken away and he was just sitting on the bed talking to someone....Maya.
When they saw her they smiled and she smiled back at them " Hey guys " she said.
" Hi " both Maya and Chris said in unison.
" Hey, you're back form work early today " Skyler said to Maya as she went to sit beside her.
" Yeah, I came back home early so I can see Chris " Maya said.
" Oh "
" So, how was it " Chris said to Skyler.
" What " Skyler said.
" Your visit to the company " Maya chimed in with a smile.
" Oh, he told you already " Skyler said to see Maya nod her head.
" Well it went well, he was just surprised to see me unexpected at his company " Skyler said
" So did anything interesting happened " Maya said wriggling her brows.
" Nothing special happened " Skyler said
" So how did he react when you told him you accepted him as your boyfriend " Maya said and Chris decided to keep quiet and let Maya do all the talking.
" He was happy and surprised and.... " Skyler said and remembered the kiss between them and she blushed which didn't go unnoticed by the two people in front of her.
" And what " Maya asked curiously.
" He kissed me, though it was an unexpected kiss " Skyler said trying to hide her blush but her cheeks already have a splash of pink in them.
" Omg, wow you just had your first kiss girl " Maya gasped.
" More like a stolen kiss from me " Skyler said.
" I'm so happy for you " Maya said
" We are happy for you " Chris who had been silent since finally talked.
" Thanks guys "
After a while they finally left the hospital after the doctor discharged Chris and said he was free to go.
" You look different without your glass " Maya said to Chris.
" Oh, those mongrels broke my perfect glass " Chris said, he was referring to Reed's men.
" You still look cute without it " Skyler said.
" Nah, I'm going to get another glass come on " Chris said.
" Where are you going " Skyler asked.
" To get another glass for myself " Chris said and they both followed him to a shop nearby where glasses were sold.
" This one will look good on you " Skyler said, she was holding a round shape glass as she knew it was Chris spec.
" You think " he said with raised brows and took the glass from Skyler and put it on " How is it "
" You look adorable " Maya said " Here try this one " she gave him a dark glass.
Chris took the glass from Maya and put it on while checking the mirror to see if he look good.
" I think this one suit you perfectly " the shop owner said.
" Then I'll take this one then " Chris said and paid for it.
" Thank you, I hope you visit again " the shop owner said while waving his hand at them as they left his shop.
It was already the time of the evening before they finally left for home, Chris decided to spend his time with Skyler as he couldn't go home yet incase Reed's men were planning to kidnap him again.

" Sir, he's with the girl now and some other girl " one of Reed's men reported to Reed through a comms.
" Which girl is that " Reed's voice sounded on the comms.
" I don't know sir, she should be their friend or maybe one of Kendricks people "
" Keep an eye on them "
" Yes sir "
" I just need that particular girl that gave me the scar on my face, you can leave the rest they are not important to me " Reed said.
" Yes sir "
" Make no mistake " Reed said and the communication was cut off " Just you wait till I get my hands on you bitch "
LUCIFER'S MANSION
The night came quickly and Jared had just finished taking his bath, he wore his pajamas but then he was feeling hungry as he was in his human skin so it was normal for him to feel hungry.
He came out of his room and headed straight to the kitchen and saw the servants doing one work and another.
When they saw him they stopped what they were doing and bowed their heads at their second master.
"Jared waved his hand at them " Where is Lucas " he asked them.
" Master Lucas is having his dinner at the dinning room " Natasha the head servant said.
Jared then left the kitchen as he knew his food for the night was already prepared and kept on the dinning table.
When he got to the dinning room, he saw Lucifer who was already eating his food quietly.
He invited himself in and sat on his chair without Lucifer's permission with his usual charming smile on his face.
Lucifer on the other hand didn't bother himself as though no one had entered the dinning room.
" Hey, what are you thinking my friend " Jared said as he began to eat his food.
" Who is your friend " Lucifer said with a glare.
Jared used his tongue to point at Lucifer as if saying ' you are ' he dare not say it out.
Lucifer ignored him " I'm going to hell " he suddenly said.
" Huh, why something happened " Jared asked.
" No, I just want to pay them a visit to see how they are doing "
" Who " Jared asked confused.
" My favourite prisoners, I thought to add more punishment to them " Lucifer said with a dangerous smirk on his face.
