Mission To Remarry novel (Roxanne and Lucian) novel Chapter 1103

Chapter 1103 What A Nuisance

Naturally, Lucian could not hear her voice, and Aubree only said it once. After she spoke, she went to get a towel, dampened it, then used it to wipe his face.

Despite being as careful as she could, she was not as gentle in her ministrations as she had never done something like that before.

Lucian knitted his brows in discomfort and subconsciously moved to avoid her hand.

Seeing that, she stopped what she was doing and leaned close to his ear. She whispered, “It also doesn’t feel nice sleeping in those clothes, right? I’ll help you take them off.”

After saying that, she stretched out her hands carefully and undid the buttons on his shirt, one after another.

When she reached the third button, he frowned and grabbed her wrist.

Her heart skipped a beat, and her eyes gleamed with anticipation. She thought that something was about to happen between them.

To her dismay, Lucian pushed her hand away in displeasure and mumbled, “Don’t touch me!”

Then, he released her hand and turned on his side with his back toward her.

The look on Aubree’s face changed instantly. Nonetheless, she forced herself to calm down and reached out tentatively to nudge Lucian lightly.

“Lucian, are you awake? Lucian?”

However, he had fallen back into a deep slumber and did not respond.

Even so, she dared not resume her attempt to undress him.

After pondering for a moment, she mustered her courage and walked to the other side to stand before him. She lifted his arm, intending to lie down next to him and create the false impression that he had pulled her into his arms.

Just as she did that, the sound of footsteps came from the direction of the door, and she froze abruptly.

Cayden had not closed the door when he left earlier. Hence, he saw Aubree pulling Lucian’s arm as soon as he walked to the door. He had no idea what she was trying to do.
