Money Power Glory (Lena x G!P Reader)

Ch 17. Surprise Meeting

It's been two weeks since the two female CEOs had their small "lunch date." Lena began to worry after the first week of radio silence and thought that the older CEO didn't want to continue their friendship. Lena was clouding her thoughts with doubts and thinking back.

The young Luthor just finished her morning meetings and now finally gets to go on her lunch break. It's a good thing she remembers to take a break because her super friends would constantly remind her that she needs to take care of herself.

Lena was browsing around on Yelp, looking what to eat until she found a high-rated Thai place just a few blocks from L-Corp. The raven-haired woman was about to intercom Jess to grab her lunch until someone knocked on her office door.

She looks at her watch, 12:35PM. Lena was confused because Jess didn't notify her that she has a meeting at this time. She fixes any flaws in her outfit and sits up straight for whoever comes through the door. In the same time, Lena was ready to push a button underneath her desk in case she needed security.

"Come in!"

She stood up quickly to realize that (Y/N) was stepping into her office with take-out bags. Her eyes focused onto her outfit. The taller woman was wearing a crisp white polka dot collared buttoned up with the sleeves rolled up to her forearms and dark olive green pants to match it.

The older CEO stops in the middle of the room, meeting her gaze. "I'm sorry to barge in like this? I talked to Jess this morning to schedule a meeting with you this afternoon but she told me it wasn't necessary because I'm a close friend to you? Maybe she mistaken me for someone who's actually close to you. She also told me it was best to see you during lunch."

Lena mentally curses her personal assistant and tries to find the words to say to the woman in front of her.

"Ahem. . I brought Thai food for lunch? I guess you haven't eaten yet? If this is a bad time, I can leave and reschedule?"

"No no! I was just caught off guard. I was about to call Jess to grab me lunch. You're a lifesaver because I'm craving Thai cuisine."

"Ha! Lifesaver huh? I guess I'm good at that." She winks at Lena and sets the food on the table by the couch.

-------------

An hour and half have passed by. The two CEOs were too deep into their conversations to realize what the time was. The food was eaten and long forgotten on the table. They were inches apart, facing each other. (Y/N) touches Lena's forearm from time to time since it was just laying on top of the couch cushion seat.

"You know. I want to say I'm sorry. For not contacting you as soon as possible? I'm being a terrible friend and I'm not starting off this friendship very well. The Thai food was basically a peace offering." (Y/N) admits.

"What?! No, it's okay, darling. I totally understand that us, CEOs are always busy."

Lena mentally curses herself this time for calling the woman darling. She even realized that she doesn't call anyone darling unless she was in a relationship or uses it with a really close friend.

The (Y/H/C) haired woman hums and smiles. Soon she was focusing on Lena's red full lips and inched closer. Lena wants to jump on this chance and ravish the woman. She thinks about throwing this friendship out of the window and just runs this course.

Jess comes crashing in, the two CEOs jumped apart and looked at the frantic assistant.

"I'm so sorry, Miss Luthor. Ben Lockwood is here and he demands to see you."

Ben Lockwood came in and (Y/N) stood in front of the shorter figure and held on to her arm for protection. Lena mouths Jess to call security.

"Ah just the right Luthor I'm looking for. We need to discuss some issues about how you stole my father's damn properties!"

(Y/N) sends out death stares at the man, disapproving the way he talks to the young woman. She turns to Lena's side and whispers to her ear, "whatever happens, I don't want you to worry."

The older CEO let's go of Lena's arm and steps forward to the aggressive man. They're about the same height, staring each other down but neither wanting to throw the first punch.

"Mr. Lockwood. Is this how you treat a woman? Using fear and aggression to get manners done? I say, it's quite interesting."

"Shut it, (Y/L/N). This does not concern you. I can't believe the Luthor needs bitch guard dog."

Lockwood aimed a punch directly to (Y/N)'s face and she caught it midair. The man stares into (Y/N)'s now blackened eyes, "if you ever step into this building without Miss Luthor's explicit permission, I swear I will ruin your life!"

He doesn't agree right away and tries to escape her grip. (Y/N) slams the man back into place. Three security guards came rushing in and the CEO threw Lockwood right in front of them.

She was looking at the ground for a while and finally looked up when her eyes were back to normal. Lena quickly went to (Y/N)'s side and checked if she's okay.

"Gentlemen, please escort that man out of my building! Jess, I want you to ban him and warn every floor that Ben Lockwood is a high threat."

(Y/N) never left her eyes on the man until Lena came into view. Connecting her emerald green eyes connect with her (Y/E/C) eyes.

"I'm sorry, Lena. That was very unprofessional of me. I think it's best that I leave." She quickly walked around the young Luthor. Lena wasn't able to catch her as if she had super speed.
