CHAPTER 44: CHAPTER 44 SHAMELESS THING!

Lucas Hughes impatiently rubbed his hands together and reached out toward Chloe Simpson.

But just as he was about to touch her, he suddenly stopped.

No, if he just directly made a move and Chloe woke up in the process...

Hehehe!

The best way would be to use Flibanserin.

Yes, that’s the plan!

Give her a drink first and then act. Even if she wakes up by then, he can completely blame it on those people who kidnapped her today.

Damn! He’s truly clever!

At this moment, Lucas even felt, that he was worthy of being a PhD in medicine.

He found the Flibanserin, poured a glass of water, and dripped it in.

Worried that the concentration might be too high, he stirred it with a spoon.

After all, this stuff is really potent.

The thought of Chloe taking this and looking so alluring made his blood boil.

He really wanted to see her seductive look.

Last time, on the second day of their wedding on the cruise ship, he wanted to play but was interrupted by Alexander Johnson.

This time, tsk tsk tsk...

Lucas was so excited that the cup of water with Flibanserin he was holding was trembling a bit.

He didn’t even know why he was so thrilled, it was something he had never felt before.

As a result, his excitement was a bit over the top.

Just when he walked to the bedside holding the water, before he could feed it to Chloe, his hand shook, and the cup flew out.

Thankfully, Lucas’s quick reflexes allowed him to catch the cup.

It didn’t matter if the water spilled, he could refill it. But if the cup fell and shattered on the floor, waking Chloe would be troublesome.

In the end, he caught the cup, but to do so, he banged his face against the wall.

Last night in Red Dust Alley, he had already been slapped hard by that fat woman, and now he hit the right side of his face again.

"Hiss!"

That really hurt! Just thinking about it hurt!

But the pain didn’t matter, as long as he could manage to deal with Chloe well today.

He could endure the pain.

Lucas looked at the still unconscious Chloe, rubbing his face with one hand while holding the cup of water as he walked toward the living room to refill the water.

Unexpectedly, just as he reached the living room, the water hadn’t even been poured when there was a knock at the door.

"!" Lucas looked up toward the door.

Who would knock at this time?

He looked at the time, it was already eleven.

"Lucas, it’s me, Harry King. Are you home?"

Outside, Harry King stood at the door, peering through the peephole.

But from outside, nothing can be seen through the peephole; he could only keep knocking on the door.

"..."

Hearing Harry’s persistent knocking, Lucas was instantly filled with rage.

He just wanted to curse!

Of all times, he had to come now!

Damn it! Interrupting him from having his fun!

Lucas really didn’t want to open the door, but with Harry continuing to knock, he had no choice. If Harry woke Chloe in the room, wouldn’t all his efforts be for nothing?

Lucas glanced at the bedroom, at Chloe who was already undressed and only in her undergarments, then went over to close the master bedroom door and opened the front door.

"What is it? Something wrong?"

Having just had a fight with Harry earlier today at the kidnapping scene and now being interrupted, Lucas naturally wasn’t in a good mood.

"Lucas, I’ve thought it over. We’ve been brothers for so many years, you couldn’t possibly be that kind of pervert. I think we need to talk properly,"

Harry King, on the other hand, was quite polite.

He had no choice; under Alexander Johnson’s pressure, he had to do this, had to maintain a good relationship with Lucas.

Moreover, Chloe was still Lucas’s wife. Only with a good relationship with Lucas could he indirectly protect her better.

Lucas sneered, "Heh, didn’t you say I was worse than an animal?"

Originally, Harry King was the wealthiest among them, no! You could say none of their families could even compare.

All along, Lucas felt inferior to Harry.

Today, hearing Harry’s tone and having him come to apologize, he instantaneously felt proud and held his head higher.

"Yes, I was indeed too hasty then, so I acted like that. But thinking about it later, you shouldn’t be that kind of person. That’s why I quickly came to find you."

"After all, we’ve been brothers for so many years. How could we just break up like that? Oh, right, how is Chloe? Is she okay?"

Harry smiled and nodded, though deep down, he wished he could stomp Lucas into the ground, crush his face relentlessly.

Truly a shameless creature!

After all he’s done, he still has the face to act like this?!

Seen shameless people, but never seen anyone this shameless.

"She’s fine, already asleep, let’s talk outside."

Lucas originally wanted to act all high and mighty for a bit more, but hearing Harry inquire about Chloe, he worried he might discover her undressed state in the room and quickly found an excuse to go outside with Harry.

In truth, Lucas didn’t really want to break up with Harry.

After all, he was the young master of the King Family, a well-known figure in Kyohai, with connections that might come in handy someday.

Lucas went outside and explained to Harry at length, saying his actions were just temporary measures and praised how good Chloe was to him, and how he couldn’t possibly do anything bad to her...

"Of course, I knew it. Lucas, I knew you couldn’t be that kind of person. Well then, now I’m relieved, it’s late, I’ll take my leave, and you two get some rest early."

Harry King laughed, knowing full well but pretending otherwise, remaining a good friend.

Watching Lucas go back into the neighborhood and get into his car, Harry then called his subordinate: "Get me all the details of everything that happened that night at Nightfall."

As for Lucas, he was naturally in a hurry to go back and continue with Chloe.
