Ashlyn did not open her eyes.
“Don’t you think your hubby is the hero?” Lucas probed.
But Ashlyn remained unperturbed and only rolled her eyes in her mind.
Is he crazy? He was so stern and cold back there; now he’s so childish and impudent. What is he trying to do? Ashlyn clearly saw the way those women looked at him just now.
They should really see how childish this man is right now.
Lucas was thinking about that kiss before the fight broke out.
Silence resumed in the cabin and the lights became dim again.
He felt restless and thirsty.
Bending over, he wanted to plant a kiss on Ashlyn’s lips.
Ashlyn did not move. Lucas smiled slyly, moved closer, and was ready to kiss her.
But before he could reach her lips, Ashlyn nimbly tilted her head and he missed.
The kiss landed on her neck.
Her scent intoxicated Lucas and he kissed her hard.
He did not get to kiss her lips, but he got to kiss her neck. That was enough for him.
Ashlyn was not expecting this.
His warm and gentle breath spread across her body. It felt familiar and exciting.
But she quickly pulled away from Lucas and said, “We are already divorced.”
Lucas peered at her in the dark.
He shrugged and feigned nonchalance, saying, “I only kissed your neck, not your lips.”
He advertently licked his lips and asked, “Don’t you miss me?”
Ashlyn laughed and said, “Lucas, please stop being a joke. You are the one who wanted a divorce.”
What do you take me for, Lucas? You want me here when you need me, and you want me gone when you’re tired of me.
You wanted a divorce, and now you want to mess with me again?
