Chapter 74
"...Alright." Lucy peeled an egg, rolled it up in his handkerchief, and then applied it on his face.
Because of this action, the two of them were so close that she could see the fine fluff on his face and feel the warm gas he exhaled.
"!!!" Lizbeth passed by the two people, and her eyes instantly turned red.
She was in a bad mood and came out for a meal. She didn't expect to meet someone she hated.
...
He let go of her with an unsatisfied expression and looked at Lizbeth unhappily. "Get lost if you don't apologize!"
"Arthur!" Lizbeth pointed at Lucy and felt very wronged. "Are you really going to break ties with our family for her? She has been out for five years, who knows how many men she has! Don't you think it's dirty?"
Lucy's brows furrowed, but he didn't have any intention of explaining. If Arthur really misunderstood... then that was fine, there was no need for her to find an excuse to leave him!
"Shut up!" Arthur's eyes were filled with an astonishing killing intent.
Even if Lucy had another man, he didn't care. As long as the last man was him!
"Arthur asked me to shut up because I was right?" Lizbeth was a little scared, but she still held the last
glimmer of hope. "If you regret falling out with the Byrd family now, I can go to find my father now and let him reconcile with your Johnson family."
"You should be glad that you are a woman!" Arthur squeezed out every word from his throat.
His murderous aura was so strong that Lizbeth was so scared that her legs went limp and she fell to the ground.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Byrd? How dare you come to see Arthur and Sister-in-law?" It was not easy for Chad to get rid of her. As a result, as soon as he came over, he saw the scene.
Lizbeth stared at him and said, "Chad, don't stir up trouble between me and Arthur!"
The two of them were at a loss for words. Neither of them was easy to deal with!
"Let's go!" Arthur held Lucy's waist tightly and walked out of the restaurant with a cold and handsome face.
Lucy turned around and gave it a look.
Lizbeth wanted to catch up with him, but Chad grabbed her and refused to let go.
The waiter took the most luxurious candlelight dinner and put it on the table. In the end, it was the two of them who ate candlelight dinner.
...
Lucy returned to Lindbarry Chateau. She thought that Aunty Julianne was cooking, but she didn't expect Arthur to cook in person.
Looking at the three dishes and one soup on the table, she had mixed feelings. "Do you know how to cook?"
From the moment she married him until now, it was the first time in eight years that she knew that he could cook!
"Yes, Sir's cooking skills are pretty good. Back then, he did it specifically for Miss Maynard..." Before Aunty Julianne could finish her sentence, Arthur shot her a cold glare that made her afraid to speak.
Lucy looked at the dishes on the table and suddenly lost the appetite to eat.
Even if Arthur treated her well, so what? She was just a substitute!
"You used to have a few men. I don't mind." Seeing that she didn't look well, Arthur thought that she still minded Lizbeth's words.
Lucy lowered his gaze and hid the expression in his eyes. "...Oh."
No matter how overbearing he was, he would only be overbearing to the woman he truly loved! As for her... he only took a fancy to her face, which was exactly the same as his.
Arthur could only feel that she was a little disappointed all of a sudden, but he couldn't figure out why.
He picked up the plate, picked up all the shrimp in it and put it into her bowl. Then, he filled a bowl of fish soup for her.
"Thank you for saving me." After a few symbolic bites, Lucy couldn't take it anymore. "And, thank you for asking Mr. Levine to help me in my company, and thank you for finding someone to kidnap Lizbeth and helping me vent my anger." Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"You're my woman. You don't have to thank me." Arthur didn't like her to be so clear with him. She was his woman. Wasn't it natural for him to do this?
Lucy lifted the corners of his mouth and forced a smile. "In fact, you don't have to find someone to kidnap Lizbeth. The relationship between the Johnson family and the Byrd family is very unfavorable to the development of the Johnson family."
"You don't have to worry about this. Let's eat!" Arthur picked up a shrimp and put it in her mouth. His woman only needed to be responsible for happiness!
When he thought of how Arthur had once fed other women in this way, Lucy felt disgusted, but she still tried hard to swallow it.
"I'm full. Take your time." Lucy put down his chopsticks and stood up.
If she looked at the dishes on this table again, she would go crazy!
Arthur put down his chopsticks and looked at her back as she went upstairs with a frown. Then he looked at Aunty Julianne and said, "Come here."
"Sir?" Aunty Julianne looked at him in confusion.
Arthur handed her a pair of chopsticks and said, "Have a taste of shrimp."
"It's delicious!" Aunty Julianne took a bite and found it delicious.
Hearing this, Arthur frowned even more. Since it was delicious, why did she eat so little?
He put down his chopsticks and went upstairs to call Chad.
"Arthur, Arthur, you are too insidious this afternoon! My sister-in-law is beautiful, and I appreciate her beauty. Why are you so stingy? Let me tell you, I really..."
Arthur directly interrupted his Niannian's nagging. "Lucy... seems to be angry."
His IQ was 200, but he still didn't understand what Lucy was thinking every day. Women's thoughts were truly complicated!
"Wh-what?!" Chad burst into an uproar. "Did you not hold it back when I told you to hold back last time?"
"No." Arthur rarely said a few more words. "When I went to pick her up today, she smiled at me. But when I went home and cooked for her, she got angry."
"That's easy! I'm sure that your cooking is too bad. Sister-in-law is not happy! Arthur, go and apply for a chef's job... beep, beep, beep!" Listening to the busy tone, Chad felt like he was going to die.
Arthur hung up the phone directly.
How could the food he cooked be terrible?
As expected, Chad was unreliable!
...
The water flowed all the way down Lucy's delicate collarbone, outlining her perfect and hot curves.
Her eyes were closed, and her mind was filled with the image of Arthur shouting at Elyse when he was in love with her.
He went in and out of her body crazily, leaving his belongings in her body at the peak, but he still called out Elyse's name.
Every time, he seemed to be looking at another person's shadow through her.
"Don't even think about it..." Lucy patted his cheeks with all of his strength. He breathed in and out, as if he was a fish on the verge of death.
She didn't belong to him, nor did he belong to her. They should have been parallel.
"Knock! Knock! Knock!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
