The Love From Vengeance

Chapter 254

254: WHAT A GREAT TIME

ARIEL’S POV

“I do love you, Ariel. Don’t think I just want to have sex with you,” Lake told me.

“No, no, that wasn’t what I was saying. Why would you think like that?”

“You just threw that question right at me after we just had sex.”

“Makes sense. But no, that’s not it. I just don’t want anything terrible to happen to our relationship; ! do not want misunderstandings.

“Why do you think there will be misunderstandings?” Luke quizzed me, now smirking at me.

“There are thousands of reasons for me to think like that.”

“Give me one, then.”

“Luke, I need to go take a shower.”

“Not the response I was looking for.” He kept on smirking.

I chuckled without getting a reply. I walked to the bathroom after that.

“You’re going to need a towel, Ariel.”

“Don’t worry, there’s one right here,” I answered, loudly to a certain degree. Now I’m in the bathroom.

“That’s mine.”

“So what if it’s yours? You’re my husband; what belongs to you apparently belongs to me.”

“Even my company?”

“Of course, but I’m not that heartless.”

I turned on the shower, enjoying its calmness, and it was a transformative experience for me–a brief
