He let out a light snort but remained silent .
Although Mr Strakovski said that , you should still apologize to him first .
After all , Miss Lopez is an important employee of Mr Strakovskis company ! Elena gently tugged at Geralds sleeve , urging him to apologize to Lukas first Gerald finally seemed to grasp the seriousness of the situation .

They said that Gerald would marry Skylar eventually , so being together beforehand wouldnt matter .
My cousin was confused at that moment and didnt know that Miss Lopez was unwilling , which led to … Lukas sarcastically looked up at her .
Is that so ? Not inquiring about the womans opinion turns it from a matter of willingness to forceful actions .
Moreover , even if they werent married , such forceful actions are still illegal Elena awkwardly laughed , unsure of what to say .
Seeing Lukas casually sitting there and flipping through her phone as if nothing had happened , she couldnt help but speak up .
Lukas , could it be that youve developed feelings for Skylar ? Upon hearing this question for the second time today , Lukass expression subtly changed .
This was the second time he heard this today .
She cast a cold glance at Elena and retorted , Regardless of whether I like her or not , who are you to ask ? Elena was taken aback , her expression stiffening and the smile on her face faltering .
