Chapter 41 - 44: Mrs. Lucas Calms Down, Mr. Lucas Supports You
Chapter 44
Lily Gray swallowed nervously under Aidan Lucas’s imposing aura, and honestly answered, “Yes, it’s the husky my mom raised…”
Danger showed in the man’s sharp black pupils, as if considering him a stupid husky too?
The soft and glutinous voice continued to explain, “But after my mom passed away, it stopped eating and drinking, and not long after, it also…”
There was no need to say more, the meaning was already clear.
A gleam flickered in Aidan Lucas’s deep, ink-like eyes, as he looked at the little woman’s suddenly reddened nose, an unusual sense of heartache appeared.
Forget it, don’t make things difficult for her.
He propped up his entire body with one hand and retreated slightly, freeing Lily Gray from the blanket.
Having just woken up, Lily completely forgot her state of having nothing on when she fell asleep. Now, as Aidan Lucas pulled her out of the blanket, she felt a chill in front of her.
She quickly lowered her head, only to realize something was wrong.
She immediately covered her chest with both hands.
“You, turn your head away—” She tried to pull the blanket up, but a big hand blocked her.
“It’s not the first time I’ve seen it, what are you afraid of?” His large palm pressed down on her delicate and weak hand, his lazy, magnetic voice slightly hoarse, a sign of his desires being provoked.
“Aidan Lucas… it’s daytime now, don’t do this…” Lily Gray softly tried to persuade him, unaware that her submissive appearance would make it even more difficult for a man to resist.
He bent down, his lips slightly raised, “It’s already night.”
Only then did Lily Gray notice that the light was on in the room, and any faint light that had originally been visible through the gaps in the curtains was no longer there.
“Besides…” Aidan Lucas kissed her lips lightly, his voice low and hoarse, “It was you sleeping like this on the bed first, tempting me.”
“I didn’t…”
He didn’t bring it up, but mentioning it made Lily Gray feel more uncomfortable.
She glared at him with her beautiful peach blossom eyes, a hint of resentment, “If you hadn’t sent me those clothes, how could I… not have any clothes to wear.”
After saying that, she turned her face away and didn’t look at him.
When she came out of the bathroom, she was originally wearing a bathrobe, but the bathrobe had been wetted by the steam, and there were no suitable clothes for her to change into in the room.
Not wanting to wear those nearly transparent and shameful clothes, she could only crawl into the blanket.
“What, angry now?” His rough palm caressed her small, delicate chin, rubbing gently.
Lily Gray’s chin tickled from his fingers, unable not to shake her head to avoid him, “Dare not, anyway I’m just the woman Mr. Cooper bought, do whatever you want.”
Although she said this, her little temper could not be concealed in her words.
She was complaining about him.
Gently rubbing her soft black hair, Aidan Lucas patiently explained, “Even if you are the woman Aidan Lucas bought, you are also Mrs. Lucas. Mrs. Lucas, I’ve told you, as long as you behave, I will give you the proper respect during this one-year period.”
She had been complaining on impulse earlier, and regretted it as soon as she said it.
After all, Aidan Lucas was kind enough to lend her his wife’s identity, which was a huge advantage. She shouldn’t be angry with him just because she had been teased by two servants.
However, Aidan Lucas’s answer made Lily Gray stunned.
Looking at the dazed and even more delicate and lovely woman, he rarely chuckled, “After tossing and turning for so long, Mrs. Lucas must be hungry, right? Come on, let’s go downstairs to eat.”
As if afraid she wouldn not trust him, he added, “Behave well, and this time Mr. Lucas will back you up and make sure you get all the respect you deserve as Mrs. Lucas..”
