Chapter 1265 - 1262: He Would Rather Be the One in Pain
Holy crap—It’s really freaking cold in this car!
"Have you eaten?" Lucas Knight pretended as if nothing had happened, his pleasant voice more alluring than usual, alone all night with her, a lot could have happened.
He didn’t know why his hand was trembling a bit; he knew he couldn’t lose his temper because doing so would mean losing her. Thus, he tried hard to control his emotions.
The man whose moods were usually inscrutable now showed no emotional ripple, not even the slightest trace of it.
"Eat... Haven’t eaten!" She had breakfast at Shallow Water Bay, just ate a couple of bites randomly.
She hasn’t had lunch yet.
"And you?" she asked Lucas Knight.
"I haven’t either," he coolly glanced at her, "Then let me take you to eat something."
When he saw her face, an astonishing shine of fascination flashed in his eyes. This woman was indeed a Fairy. Did Liam Coldwell really do nothing with her?
The temperature inside the car dropped again.
Eva Nightingale hugged her arms against the inexplicable chill: "..." Lucas Knight must specialize in producing ice cubes!
On the road.
Lucas Knight steered with one hand, the other resting on his leg, seemingly out of place.
He used to habitually reach out to hold her hand, intertwining their fingers.
At the traffic light intersection, he turned his head, looking at her: "Darling, I’m quite satisfied with your performance during this period."
At least she genuinely fulfilled her duties as Young Madam and performed well.
But...
Why is she specifically the mother of Ivy and Harry?
He couldn’t believe there were so many coincidences in the world, so he repeatedly asked Harry North and Dr. Meng to investigate. Eventually, unable to withstand the questioning from him, Dr. Meng and Harry North voluntarily explained their suspicions and some matters.
A reality akin to spilling the beans without any interrogation.
When he first knew her identity, he thought about renewing the contract or marrying her directly, but now he hesitated...
Once the contract expires, let’s terminate it.
The rules of the contract were drafted by him; he kept reminding her not to forget, he didn’t want to be the one who breaks the agreement now.
Eva Nightingale: "What performance... oh..." She was a bit dumbfounded, quickly realizing he was referring to the contract, "Oh oh, Mr. President, you’re also at the Emperor level of acting."
"The whole world owes you an Oscar statuette!"
He chuckled: "Really?"
No wonder she seemed familiar to him before, it turns out... that feeling of regaining a lost treasure wasn’t fake.
So he can say...
He can say that he didn’t fake those feelings?
However, he dominantly opened his mouth: "Then, please continue being my little beloved wife, hmm?"
Dr. Meng said her constitution makes it quite difficult for her to get pregnant now; he’s worried on one hand and contemplating whether to continue to let her conceive.
Lucas Knight hasn’t forgotten, back then... when signing the contract, her goal was to borrow genes, she wanted to get pregnant!
"Lucas Knight, where are you taking me to eat?"
"Ancient Moon Town, just ahead."
Ancient Moon Town is a retro-style town, a tourist spot with a prime location near the mountains and sea, close to the college town, quite romantic indeed.
Eva Nightingale always felt something was off about him but couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was.
She finally remembered something: "Last night I was with a friend, so I didn’t come home."
She’s explaining...
