Chapter 1170
Aurora nodded quickly.
She thought Lucas had already understood what she meant.
“Alright then, since you get it, I’ll just wash up and head to bed.”
She let out a dainty yawn.
After a long day, she truly was exhausted.
Just as she was about to leave, Lucas yanked her back, pinning her in place.
He braced one hand against the door, caging her in his arms.
Aurora’s voice faltered, her words stumbling.
“What… what do you think you’re doing?”
She pressed against his chest, flustered. “Let me go. I still need a shower–it’s late, I’m really tired.”
But Lucas wouldn’t release her. No matter how she pushed, he didn’t budge an inch.
Seeing him like this, Aurora felt helpless.
She tilted her head back, meeting his eyes. “Why are you blocking me in like this?”
“You still don’t get it?” Lucas leaned closer, his breath warm against her ear.
“Honey, don’t go to places like that with her again, alright? Whatever you need, you can come to me–I’ll give you everything.”
Aurora’s face flushed scarlet.
She slapped her hand over his mouth, her voice a mix of shame and anger. “What nonsense are you
spouting?”
What kind of shameless talk was that!
Lucas was nothing like the man he showed the world.
A glint of mischief flickered in his eyes.
He pressed a gentle kiss to the center of her palm.
Aurora yanked her hand back in shock.
“What are you doing?”

It was one thing for Lucas to act so different in public and in private, but did he really have to be this
overbearing?
Aurora’s mind was in a whirl, her only thought now to get away from him.
She’d already explained everything she needed to.
Whatever else he asked, her conscience was clear.
But then Megan came to mind.
What if Lucas decided to go after her later?
Just as Aurora started to edge away, she straightened her posture and looked him in the eye.
