The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 729

Clad in a crisp white suit, the man’s features were not strikingly handsome, but his aura was exceptionally captivating. An air of elegance seemed to radiate from his very bones, his eyes twinkling with a hint of amusement and a touch of superiority.

“Ms. Dustin, long time no see.” Lucas initiated the greeting.

Tanya looked somewhat taken aback. “Bri, you know each other?”

Brittany snapped out of her reverie, shaking hands with Lucas. “Good to see you again.”

Pulling his hand back, Lucas turned his attention to Tanya, offering her the item he held. “Madam, it’s a pleasure. My name is Lucas.”

Tanya accepted the object, her eyes scrutinizing Lucas. He was as handsome as Blake had described, his demeanor exuding refinement.

Brittany hadn’t expected to encounter Lucas here, and certainly not under those circumstances.

Tanya found an excuse to leave, and the spacious living room was left to just the two of them.

“Mr. Lucas, I had no idea it was you.” Brittany poured Lucas a cup of coffee. Lucas fixed his gaze on her, accepting the cup. “I knew it was you.”

Brittany’s fingers paused.

“Mr. Lucas, I thought I made myself clear before.”

Brittany and Lucas had met in Craneville. Lucas had confessed his feelings for her then, but she had rejected him. She hadn’t anticipated seeing him again.

Lucas understood Brittany’s implication, but he still wanted to take a chance. “Ms. Dustin, I understand your sentiments, but I’d like us to start afresh.”

Faced with Lucas, Brittany genuinely didn’t know what to say.

Given that the Chester family had introduced him, she didn’t want to reject him outright. Instead, she gently indicated that her focus was on her child and her work.

Lucas smiled. “That’s fine. We can start as friends. As long as you don’t avoid me, that’s more than enough.”
