Chapter 74

Reese's heart turned cold like the chilling wind from the Antarctic.

She never expected that Lukas's intention was purely physical, with no emotions involved.

Perhaps, when she initially proposed to register their marriage and make him her backup plan, she should have expected this.

Thinking about the recent events, Reese's heart grew colder, but her mind became calmer.

Reese remained silent for a few seconds. Instead of getting up to drink water, she just turned over and lay down, stiffly occupying half of the big bed.

Lukas's eyes flickered as he naturally pulled back the covers and lay on the other side.

The comforting scent beside him unknowingly lulled him to sleep.

A peaceful night's rest.

The next morning, Lukas opened his eyes, still contentedly holding Reese in his arms.

Looking at the person in his arms, his expression was slightly unnatural.

Recalling last night's events, he carefully let go of Reese and got out of bed to take a shower.

As soon as he closed the bathroom door, Reese opened her eyes.

She thought that the reason she hadn't lost her temper yet was because although Lukas talked about marital obligations, he hadn't really forced her to do anything during the nights they spent together.

She was curious to see what Lukas really wanted.

Reese got up and headed directly to the guest room's bathroom. When she saw the familiar shampoo and shower gel there, her expression became somewhat awkward.

Could it be that Lukas used this?

After finishing her shower, Lukas had already left the master bedroom. Reese changed her clothes and

went to work.

As she passed through the living room, she saw Lukas having breakfast.

She walked straight towards the door, and Lukas's eyes darkened, "Why don't you have breakfast?"
