Chapter 42 Chapter 42 After finishing everything , Lukas came out of the shower .
He had a towel around his waist , revealing his lean and well built upper body with clear eight pack abs .
He had the kind of body that looked stylish when clothed and seductive when unclothed .
I caught sight of the water droplets on his abs , cascading down and disappearing into the towel .
I blushed and quickly looked away , too embarrassed to continue staring Lukas walked over and stood beside me , asking , Is everything done ? I lowered my head like a quail .
Yes , its done ! Lukas continued , Are you satisfied with the gift I gave you ? I hurriedly nodded , Yes ! Very much .
Its very useful .
Thank you very much ! Lukas hummed in satisfaction .
Well then , lets sleep ! I looked up in surprise and confusion .
We technically havent fulfilled our marital duties properly , especially with me coming out as a virgin .
I blushed , remembering the scene last night , and tried to speak , but I only stammered .
Ah ! Lukas seemed to see through my thoughts and lightly caressed my cheek , saying calmly , Dont worry , I wont touch you until youve had your revenge .
For now , well just sleep .
I immediately lowered my head again , my face too red to look at him .
Lukas found my reaction particularly amusing .

Suddenly , he bent down , his full hormone laden aura surrounding me as he teased , What ? Are you looking forward to fulfilling it ? I stammered .
Im not ! Lukas chuckled lightly , turned around , and walked to the bed , Take a shower and go to sleep ! He had noticed that he slept really well when he is hugging this woman ! Before , he could only sleep for five hours a night , mostly relying on sleeping pills .
After taking a shower , I climbed into the bed , bringing the blanket with me as I was pulled into an embrace by Lukas .
The next morning , when I left the room , I saw Lukas , just like yesterday , reading financial news .
I approached him , feeling uneasy .
Did you … sleep well last night ? Lukas glanced at me , smiling , Better than you think! I relaxed at his answer , blushed from being flattered , and fell silent .
After breakfast , Lukas offered to drive me to the company , but I refused .
Im not going to the company today ! Lukas raised an eyebrow but didnt ask further , then he left for work .
Not long after Lukas left , I received a screenshot message from my close friend , with the accompanying text : Heres what you wanted ! The screenshot was taken at 7:30 last night .
It showed Bella using Skylars scanned design draft to submit an entry to the Century Jewelry Competition .
At 8:30 in the morning , before most companies work hours , a shocking revelation appeared online .
