Chapter 142 Chapter 142 My face turned unpleasant as I stared at him without saying a word .
Lukas felt uncomfortable under my gaze , and he chuckled sarcastically , As you wish .
After speaking , he stood up and walked towards the exit .
I knew that Lukas is definitely not happy .
After all , he had gone to great lengths to uncover the truth and wanted to stand up for me , but I refused .
I didnt want Lukas to personally take action and break someones hand , as if it were as casual as drinking water or eating .
It terrified me .
However , I had no idea that someone like Gwendolyn wouldnt be affected by my so called punishment .
Instead , it would only make Gwendolyn hate me even more and drive her to do more insane things .
But for now , I couldnt see through all of this .
I had never encountered someone like Gwendolyn before , and I didnt understand this type of person .
James looked at me with unprecedented seriousness , Skylar , Im sorry .
This is my fault .
Our King Family failed to educate Gwendolyn properly .
I glanced at him and replied calmly , It has nothing to do with you .
After saying that , I got up and walked outside .
At the entrance of the private room , I heard James raising his voice , Regardless , thank you for believing me in front of Lukas .
My tone remained cold , Im just discussing the matter at hand .
As soon as I finished speaking , I saw Martins return .
He looked at me and spoke calmly , Miss Lopez , let me take Gwendolyn to the police station .
I nodded and left .
Although I knew that my attitude towards this matter would upset Lukas , I had no choice but to swallow my pride and ask Lukas for help with the matter of Victoria threatening me .
I was desperate to get the letter from my father .
Back at the company , I tried to call Lukas , but I couldnt get through to him .
I felt a slight sinking in my heart .
Lukas must be very angry this time .
In the afternoon after work , I returned to Hill Crest One Residence as usual .
The housekeeper had already prepared dinner , but the villa felt empty , and Lukas hadnt come back yet .
I finished dinner and did something unprecedented ; I didnt return to my room .
Instead , I sat in the living room downstairs , waiting for Lukas , while playing with the cat .
Little cat nestled obediently beside me , looking completely different from when it was in front of Lukas .
14:02 Escape From My Step Brothers Dangerous Obsession 87.0 % Chapter 142 I waited until it was past eight oclock , but Lukas still hadnt returned .
I had to go upstairs to take a shower and then came back downstairs to continue waiting .
Third person P.O.V.
At the same time , at the old bar , in the supreme private room .

When Elias entered , he saw several empty bottles of various alcohol in front of Lukas .
Elias raised an eyebrow and teased , Whats going on ? You suddenly started drinking so heavily .
Lukas glanced at him and ignored the comment .
Elias sat down beside him , and his eyes flickered , You suddenly act out of character like this .
Let me guess , did you have a fight with Skylar ? Lukass expression changed slightly , What does my drinking have to do with her? Elias nonchalantly opened a bottle of wine and poured himself a glass , Apart from her , I cant think of anyone else who can provoke you .
Lukas didnt expect that Eliass guess would be accurate .
His face turned even uglier as he retorted , Youre thinking too much .
Im just drinking .
Elias leaned closer , Really ? I remember that after you quit smoking , you rarely drank like this .
Dont play games with me .
Its not .
embarrassing at all to fall for a goddess like Skylar .
Lukass expression instantly became even more ugly .
He moved to the side with disdain .
Shut up , Elias .
Who told you that I like her ? Elias blinked .
But if its not because of her , then is it work related ? Lukass expression turned grim , I called you here to drink , not to listen to your nonsense .
Elias innocently touched his nose , All right , lets drink then .
Lukas had a drink and thought about everything he had done to uncover Jamess accounts , and how Skylar chose to believe James .
He had gone through so much trouble to find out what Gwendolyn had done .
In the end , Skylar innocently chose to let Gwendolyn go .
To Lukas , the mild punishment Skylar gave Gwendolyn was equivalent to letting her off the hook .
He had spent so much effort investigating , and in the end , the result was changed just like that .
Lukas had never felt so frustrated before .
He decided that if he ever rushed to help Skylar again , he must be out of his mind .
Lukas drank while making a mental promise .
Skylars P.O.V.
I waited until it was past ten oclock in the evening when Lukas returned home .
14:02 Escape From My Sten Brothers Dangerous Obsession 872 % Chapter 142 I quickly released Little cat and walked towards Lukas .
As soon as Ir approached , I smelled the alcohol that reeked from Lukas .
I raised an eyebrow , Mr.
Strakovski , have you been drinking ? Lukass tone turned harsh as soon as he saw me , Does it have anything to do with you ? I pursed my lips , Its none of my business .
Lukass words got stuck in his throat , yet he wanted to curse .
He gave me a cold glance , then bypassed me and headed upstairs .
I thought about the matter of Victoria threatening me and mustered up the courage to speak , Mr.
Strakovski , can you do me a favor ? Hearing those words come out of my mouth, Lukas lost it .
His temper flared up and turned to look at me .
He was venting his emotions under the influence of alcohol and didnt care about what he was saying , Youre asking me to do you a favor ? Why should I help you , Skylar ? Who do you think you are ? Whats your relationship with me ? Do I have to help you just because you asked for it ? You probably havent figured out our relationship .
Even if were married , does that mean Ive slept with you ? When an escort girl comes on stage , she at least gives something in return .
What are you offering ? You expect me to help you without any compensation ? You really think too highly of yourself .
