A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage (reese and hudson)

Over the phone, Reese was able to sense the unease in Ava's voice. "Elias told me about you and Lukas," Ava said.

Reese was a little surprised. "Have you been seeing him?" she inquired.

She was well aware of Ava's tendency to keep her distance from the people that she wanted to avoid. When she wanted to stay away from someone, it was almost impossible for that person to reach her on the phone.

She continued, "He stayed with me and refused to leave. When I tried to leave, he threatened to take the key to my house away from me and refused to let me out. I didn't want to call the police, so I had to promise him that I wouldn't unilaterally cut off contact with him. He's been with me all day today," Ava explained.
