NovelEnglishIn the pitch-black darkness of the cabin the corner, Lukas was particularly absorbed in the passionate kisses
they had shared for so long.
Reese felt awkward for a couple of seconds, and then heard Lukas' domineering, deep, and husky voice say,
"Focus!"
Reese blinked and blushed, closing her eyes. Accepting her fate.
When Lukas finally released his hold, Reese's cheeks were as red as cherries.
She was flustered, hurriedly opened the cabdoor, and quickly walked out, retrieving the monitors from the
room.
Lukas followed her out, silently gazing at her back with darkened eyes. He couldn't help but rub his brow in
frustration.
What he had just done was really... beyond his control.
Seeing that she kept her back turned to him, as if she were angry, Lukas felt somewhat helpless. His voice was

Reese remained silent, took out one of the monitors, and turned to leave.
Lukas finally couldn't hold back, saying, "I'm sorry, | couldn't control myself just now!"
Reese's steps faltered, paused and finally looked at him, her expression calm. "Hmm, | understand."
Despite her outward composure, only she knew how chaotic her thoughts were at the moment.
Hearing her response, Lukas leaned against the cabdoor, his gaze carrying a warmth as he watched her
intently, unwavering.
What did Reese mean by that? Was she completely indifferent to what had just happened?
Reese felt extremely uncomfortable under his gaze and couldn't help but turn and glare at him. "Why are you
staring atlike that?"
Lukas' eyes flickered, and he felt a strong urge to dismantle the cold mask she was wearing. He playfully
quipped with a meaningful tone, "I just didn't expect you to be so invested earlier, quite cooperative, | must say."
Thinking about the kiss they shared in the cabinet, she remembered that Walter and Jerhad both left. She
not only didn't resist, but also let Lukas have his way with her.
Her face turned even redder as she retorted in frustration, "Cooperative? You're reading too much into it. My
limbs were numb, | couldn't move... Besides, didn't you tellnot to have any improper thoughts about you?
Why do you keep kissing me?"
Lukas froze for a moment; his intentions had been laid bare. His complexion couldn't quite hold up.
Pretending to be nonchalant, he maintained a straight face. "Didn't we agree to fulfill our marital duties when we
got married? A kiss like that is just part of it, isn't it a bit much to fuss over?"
Reese, who had been blushing, heard this and her expression shifted from embarrassment to indignation. She
suppressed all her emotions and gazed deeply at Lukas, "Fine!"
With that, she turned and walked away without a word.
Lukas was momentarily stunned by her reaction. Was she really angry?
It wasn't until the sound of the door closing reached his ears that he snapped out

of it. He anxiously rubbed his temple and regretted what he had said.
When he tried to look for her after he snapped out of his thoughts, Reese was nowhere to be found.
Back in Apartment 1 of Hill Crest Residence, Lukas found that Reese had already gone upstairs. The poor little
white cat meowed pitifully, but Reese hadn't left any cat food for it.
It seemed that she was genuinely upset this time.
Lukas scooped a handful of cat food for the little white cat before heading upstairs.
He stood at the doorway of Reese's room and resignedly knocked on the door.
However, he knocked for quite stime, but Reese didn't respond.
Lukas felt helpless. "Reese, | know you're inside. Open the door!"
Reese's voice grew heavy. "Mr. Strakovski, I'm going to sleep!"
Lukas' voice grew heavy. "Reese Roberts, do you really want to forceto use my own key to open the door?"
