A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage novel Chapter 262

She finished speaking and started to leave.

Lukas was utterly bewildered.

However, he couldn't just let Reese leave like this.

The relationship between him and Reese had just improved a bit today, and he couldn't afford to have another conflict. He couldn't bear another cold war again.

Lukas grabbed Reese's arm firmly, saying, "No, you need to explain!"

Reese was furious, her eyes slightly reddened. She tried to shake off Lukas's grip with force.

Lukas hadn't expected Reese to be so serious.

His expression changed slightly, and he pulled Reese closer, pressing her down on the sofa in a domineering yet helpless manner, "What's wrong?"

Reese's cold demeanor was suffocating, "I don't want to talk to you!"

Lukas stared at her, his brow furrowed.

Suddenly, he thought of something that Elias had once said, 'Between a man and a woman, there's no conflict that a kiss can't resolve. If one doesn't work, try two!'

Of course, Elias had also mentioned that a kiss could be replaced with a punch... and it would be even more effective.

A strange idea popped into Lukas's head, and he leaned in and kissed Reese.

Reese was taken aback by Lukas's sudden move.

She clearly smelled a faint fragrance on Lukas, the same scent she had noticed on Rose in the restroom earlier.

Reese felt a wave of nausea. She pushed Lukas away forcefully, catching him off guard. He nearly fell off the sofa.

Reese glared at him angrily, rubbing her lips forcefully and wiping away the unwanted sensation. Her eyes were red, her voice both aggrieved and furious, "Don't kiss me, it's disgusting!"

Lukas's expression changed abruptly, his mood darkening instantly, "I'm disgusting?"

Those words that he used to casually toss around, the ones about the marriage agreement, he realized he couldn't say them anymore.

It seemed that if he did, given Reese's strong-willed nature, she would undoubtedly go head to head with him. In the end, both would end up hurt.

In the past, he wouldn't have cared about such things.

If Reese didn't want him to touch her, he would do just that, and not only would he touch her, but he would also make it clear that her duties as a wife were her responsibilities. Even if she found it repulsive, she would have to endure it.

But now, he couldn't bring himself to do it. He was actually afraid of hurting Reese's feelings.

In the local bar, Supreme Private Room.

Elias looked resentful, "I've finished bathing and was about to sleep. Yet you had to drag me out of bed to have a drink!"

Lukas gave him a cold glance, "If you're not willing, then leave!"
