Love Addiction: Doting On My Love by Wendy

Chapter 0144

“Is something wrong?”

Violet was taken aback. Her heart leaped up her throat, and her knees felt weak.

George simply opened the door and invited. “Please, Ms. Violet, take a look Inside.”

The staff had been removed from the scene, and their knowledge of the situation inside was

unclear.

Ignoring their previous disagreements, Violet crept into the room, finding it unnervingly silent, not the gruesome sight she had braced for.

Where could Lucius be? She searched anxiously, cursing the careless butler in her mind for not

watching over Lucius properly.

At last, she spotted Lucius on the bed, lying in a relaxed position, eyes shut.

The dim light softened his features, giving him a princely appearance. However, it was tinged with

a sense of solitude.

He opened his eyes when he heard a noise.

“Why… are you sleeping already?” she asked quietly.

Lucius opened his eyes lazily and simply said, “I’m hungry.”

Violet could not understand his logic about the relationship between hunger and sleep.

“I want to eat something you’ve made,” he said pitifully, a far cry from his usual arrogance and something more akin to a child being abandoned.

“I’ll cook for you,” she conceded, reminded of the enormous debt she owed him.

As she headed to the kitchen, Lucius called out, “Why are you cooking for me?”

Violet chose not to answer directly.

Persisting, Lucius asked, “Is it out of fear? Or pity?”
