Chapter 17
Chapter 17
Since I was going to be with Lucas, I would face any difficulties.
I thought the road ahead would still be very tough.
Unexpectedly, a week later, the mansion kept sending supplements to the apartment.
On the surface, Vivian didn't say anything, but she had already started to accept my existence.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
I ate too many of those supplements and gained weight, so I gave them to Lucas to eat.
As a result, he became even more energetic at night.
...
On Friday, Jason asked me out for dinner.
He had a friend who wanted to start a music school and wanted to introduce us.
I had thought about starting my own music training institute a long time ago, but had put it aside because of William's illness.
Now was a good opportunity to pick up my dream again.
Although Lucas said he didn't mind supporting me, I still wanted to rely on my own efforts.
After all, marriage and independence are two different things.
I enthusiastically started planning the music training institute with my partner, starting with tutoring children.
Lucas would come home every day to see me busier than him, and would quietly help me on the side.
Occasionally he would look over contracts and remind me about some investment matters.
He came out of the shower, and I was still looking at documents on the computer.
There were so many things to prepare, but I didn't feel tired at all.
Because I could finally do what I loved.
"Honey, when are you going to spend time with me?" He came over looking pitiful.
"Soon, soon."
"You've said 'soon' how many times now."
He leaned dissatisfied on my shoulder.
I ignored him, so he started causing trouble.
Touching my ears, biting my neck...
"Stop it."
I was ticklish but couldn't escape.
After finishing the last task, Lucas sat nearby reading a book.
I stretched.
"Okay, let's rest."
He didn't respond.
"Are you angry?" I took away his book and saw his resentful puppy eyes.
I laughed and pulled out that line:
"I'm working hard for our future. Don't be unreasonable."
He raised an eyebrow. "I'll be unreasonable. What are you going to do about it?"
"I'll... coax you of course!"
I leaned in and kissed him.
Lucas's gaze deepened, looking at me with ill intent.
He patted his leg.
"If you want to coax me, sit here and do it."
"..."
So naughty.
