Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 461

"OK. Take your time." Luke waved his hand.

Sydney went back to her room, got her clothes, and then went to the bathroom.

Luke sat down on the couch and turned on the TV with the remote control. He then watched TV while waiting for Sydney to finish her shower.

After about ten minutes, Sydney came out.

Her hair was wet, and her cheeks had a slight flush. Her eyes were misty. She looked innocent and tempting, which made Luke excited.

Luke’s eyes sparkled. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Whoa! Darling, why are you coming out like this? Are you tempting me?

Sydney rolled her eyes at him, "When did I tempt you?"

"Aren’t you tempting me now? When a woman comes out of the shower, it's a deadly temptation for a man. Darling, aren't you tempting me?"

Before Luke could finish his sentence, Sydney threw a doll at him.

It hit Luke's forehead. Luke deliberately fell on the couch and let out a groan.

Sydney clapped her hands, "Stop talking about that nonsense! Okay, I'm going to my room to dry my hair. Watch your TV."

Then she went into her room.

Luke rubbed his forehead and sat up.

Looking at the closed door of her room, he was at a loss, his eyes sullen.

Sydney didn't understand him at all.

For so long they had known each other, he had hinted to her that he never thought of her as a bestie, but as the woman he loved. He wanted to be with her.

But Sydney never believed it. She thought he was just joking or teasing her, and not serious.

Certainly, it was his own fault.

He never told her outright that he loved her because he didn't have the courage. He was a coward. He had too many scruples.

He was always worried that if he told her he loved her, maybe they wouldn't even be friends.

Luke's mother understood his fears. She had encouraged him to be brave, and that maybe Sydney would be with him if he told her how he felt. But he still couldn't do it.

That was probably why, although Luke met Sydney at the earliest time and they spent the most time together, in the end, she fell in love with another man.

But if he had been braver, wouldn’t his relationship with her have been different?

"What are you thinking about?" Sydney's voice rang out as Luke was lost in his thoughts.

Luke's eyes flickered. He collected his thoughts and came back to his senses. " Nothing."

He smiled at her. Her hair was dried. She had tied her hair up into a bun. She had put on light makeup on her face and was now dressed in a casual outfit. She looked less like a mature woman than a college student fresh out of school.

"You look great." Luke complimented her. He turned off the TV and stood up.

Sydney chuckled, "You mean I didn't look great before?"

"No. I just mean that you look more lively today. You're usually more of an office lady. " Luke said, his hands in his pants pockets.

Sydney grabbed her bag, "I'm too sweet looking, not intimidating. I dress up to make myself look sophisticated.

Otherwise, I can’t intimidate the staff."

"You have a point." Luke nodded.

"Okay. Let's go." Sydney turned to pull her suitcase.

Luke held out his hand. "Give it to me."

Sydney then gave Luke her suitcase. She wasn't too polite with him.
