Chapter 154

Moming.

Allison blinked her eyes open. Then she slowly widened her eyes, looking at Lucian who was lying on the edge of the bed and resting. The usually aloof Lucian now seemed to have taken off his mask of indifference His face was incredibly handsome, yet it posed no threat Allison breathed lightly, carefully observing the man’s features. When he was awake, his face was full of cold indifference, but his eyelashes were incredibly thick, like a dense brush Allison couldn’t help but extend her hand to gently touch them.

Last night’s events felt like a dream. She had been on the verge of despair. Then this man seemed to descend from the heavens like a god.

Snapping back to reality, Allison saw a pair of warm eyes. Their deep color was like a bottomless abyss.

She quickly tried to pull back her hand.

But it was too late.

Lucian suddenly grabbed her hand, his gaze gradually becoming clear. His voice was relaxed, “Were you checking me out?”

Allison’s cheeks turned a light pink, “No”

She tried to pull her hand back, but Lucian held on tightly. She didn’t expect Lucian to have already woken up. She felt a little regret in her heart, but more than that, she was afraid of making him angry.

“Still denying it!” Lucian held her hand tightly. Her hands were soft and delicate and felt tender in his palm, which made him lighten his grip, “Can’t admit it, can you?”

He extended his other hand, lifting her chin and raising her head. Their gazes clashed, his eyes were deep and warm, and hers seemed to overflow with warmth, capable of melting all indifference. Lucian looked into her beautiful eyes. Even if he didn’t like her, he had to adrnit that her eyes were as beautiful as snow, pure and flawless “Tell me, were you checking me out or not?”

Allison didn’t expect Lucian to be so hung up on this issue. Her blushing was a clear giveaway. Her voice was very soft, very light, and slightly trembling, “Mr. Lindberg, I’m sorry. I’ll be more careful next time”

Allison saw Lucian’s face darkening and she bit her lip regretfully. Did she upset him again?

Just as Allison finished speaking, Lucian’s face darkened even more.

Lucian suddenly flipped over, pinning Allison beneath him. “Be careful of what?”

Allison let out a startled gasp.

Lucian’s hand was large and easily held both of Allison’s hands above her head on the pillow. He leaned down, his handsome face only a centimeter from Allison’s When he spoke, his breath fanned out on Allison’s face.

Allison’s face turned red instantly. She had been intimate with him before and had seen him at this close range, but at this moment, with Lucian speaking and his warm breath falling on her face while he stared at her intently, Allison felt nervous.

“Tll ask you one last time, were you checking me out?!”

Allison hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded her head, no longer considering whether he would get angry, and then said in an embarrassed whisper, “Yes”

Allison initially thought that Lucian would be angry, but to her surprise, after hearing her answer, his face actually relaxed; there was even a trace of a smile on his lips, “If you want to look, then look. I won’t bite you.“.

Allison could never figure him out. He was clear about his dislike for her. Getting caught checking him out would definitely upset him, and she would feel embarrassed too.

He seemed to be about to get angry, but suddenly he lightened up. These past few days, his mood seemed to change constantly, which confused Allison.

First, she nodded slightly, carefully observing Lucian’s expression. When she saw no further signs of anger, she finally said, “Got it, Mr. Lindberg”
