Chapter 73
"Why are you standing there like a fool? Why aren't you coming in?" Arthur opened the car door, his face full of annoyance.
Lucy shot a glance at his red ears, and then with some difficulty, carried the flowers into the car.
After she went in, Arthur went to the other side and sat in the driver's seat.
"You still haven't told me who hit your face." The bouquet was just too large. Lucy placed it behind the car.
Arthur stepped on the accelerator and said coldly, "It's none of your business."
"Did you get beaten up because of the kidnapping of Lizbeth?" Lucy tilted his head and looked at the palm print on his face, feeling very uncomfortable.
Arthur tilted his head and glanced at her. There was a hint of expectation in his eyes. "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
"... You think too much." Sooner or later, they would separate. Lucy didn't want to give him too much hope.
The expectation in Arthur's eyes disappeared. He stepped on the accelerator to the end with a gloomy face and quickly surpassed the cars in front of him.
However, when he saw Lucy's pale face through the rearview mirror, he couldn't help but slow down the car.
"Stop... stop at the side." Lucy grabbed his arm, trying his best to suppress the feeling of vomiting that was wantonly flying through his body.
Arthur quickly stopped the car and carried her out of the car.
"Ew!" Lucy vomited until it was pitch-black. His entire mind was a bit dizzy.
Arthur grabbed her waist with one hand, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the vomit from the corner of her mouth. "Are you stupid? Why don't you let me slow down when I feel uncomfortable?"
"When you're unhappy, you have to vent it on the car. It's better than venting it on me." Lucy spat it out, feeling much more comfortable.
Arthur stuffed the handkerchief into her hand and his handsome face darkened. "Do I look like a man who bullies women?"
"It doesn't look like it." Under his somewhat satisfied gaze, Lucy continued, "But don't judge a book by its cover. You look like a man, but in fact, you are a beast."
Her words were absolutely not wrong to him. Everyone thought that Arthur had forbidden his desire from getting cold, but he was just an unscrupulous wolf in bed!
"Lucy!" Arthur squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. His handsome face was covered in dark clouds.
When he saw him like thisLucy couldn't help but laugh out loud. The smile on the corners of his lips blossomed layer after layer like Datura, brilliant and astonishing.
His angry and embarrassed look... was very cute!
Arthur looked at the enlarged smile on her face. There seemed to be fireworks blooming in his mind, and the anger in his chest had long dissipated.
In this life, he would probably fall into her hands!
...
Half an hour later, they arrived at the most luxurious restaurant in City A.
"Hello, sister-in-law!" Chad was wearing an extremely coquettish pink shirt. When he saw Lucy, he laughed so hard that his eyes almost disappeared. "We can even touch each other after having a meal. We are really fated!"
Arthur's brows furrowed in an almost invisible manner. He took a step forward, blocking Lucy's line of sight.
"Arthur, get out of my way. You blocked my way and looked at my sister-in-law!" Chad pushed him away and approached Lucy with a smile. "Sister-in-law, you look so good in this small suit. You forced yourself to wear a professional suit..."
"Get lost!" Arthur grabbed his collar and threw him to the opposite seat.
If it weren't for Chad, he would have asked the security guard to throw this third wheel out!
"What!" Chad pouted and put on a pitiful look. "Arthur, do you have a sister-in-law, so you don't love your Chad anymore?"
Hearing this, Arthur's temples throbbed and he blocked his mouth with the dessert in front of him.
"Wow, give me something to eat!" Chad made a shy expression. "Arthur still loves me!"
Arthur's handsome face darkened even more. Which part of him wasn't right in the past, and which part of him was why he became friends with Chad?
Seeing this scene, the corners of Lucy's mouth twitched.
Chad, who had been looking down on her for five years, looked like a lunatic now. He didn't look like a person at all!
"Arthur, Sister-in-law, don't just stand there and watch. Order! Forget it. For the sake of your hard work, I'll show you mercy. I'll treat you to a candlelight dinner!" Chad snapped his fingers, called the waiter over, and gave a lot of orders.
The waiter smiled and repeated his request again. "You want the highest candlelight dinner, which must be poetic and romantic, right?"
"You have a good memory. It's so bad for you to be a waiter here." Chad and his brother patted the waiter on the shoulder.
The waiter smiled and left.
"Arthur, Sister-in-law, my female companion has left. Don't you mind if I have a free meal here?" When he said this, Chad looked at Lucy with a smile and winked at him.
Lucy liked to flirt with others the most. At this moment, she was being flirted with by a man. She suddenly felt that... a man could also be so charming!
"I'm going to the bathroom." Looking at the interaction between the two, the dark clouds on Arthur's face had turned into a blizzard.
However, Chad was immersed in his sister-in-law's beauty and couldn't get rid of it. He didn't see Arthur's expression at all.
Arthur went out for two minutes, and soon returned with an expressionless face. He looked straight at Chad with a knife-like gaze.
Chad ignored him and continued to chat and laugh with Lucy.
"Dear, I'm waiting for you. Why are you here?" At this moment, a delicate woman came over.
Chad's face was blank.
He didn't remember seeing this beauty before!
"What kind of look is that!" The woman pouted. "It's only been a dozen minutes since we last met, but you've already forgotten about me?!"
Chad was still confused. "Ha... Um, who are you?"
"Daling, stop acting. It's not fun at all! Let's go back to the private room and continue to play games!" The woman pulled his arm and walked out. Her words were very ambiguous.
Chad struggled to turn around to look at his Arthur, who had a faint smile on his face.
"What the f*ck!" This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Arthur was playing dirty with him!
Seeing that he had finally left, Lucy let out a sigh of relief. She had never seen anyone who was even more noisy than Chad!
She looked at Arthur, who was next to her, and asked, "Do you want to sit opposite me?"
Even at such a close distance, she could feel the warmth of his body... It was a little unaccustomed.
"I'm a neat freak." Arthur gave a serious reason. "Chad has been there."
Lucy: "..."
No one had ever sat in the same place as them!
She did not continue to ask this question. She called the waiter over and asked him to prepare two boiled eggs, two handkerchiefs, and a bowl of ice.
Soon, the gifts were delivered.
"Do you want an ice compress or an egg?" Lucy looked at the palm imprint on his face and asked.
Arthur glanced at the eggs and ice cubes on the table and said coldly, "Put them on."
