"Since you’ve rested well, then..."

Saying this, she walked toward the big bed, looking at the woman whose hands and feet were all cuffed.

"Then start fulfilling your duties as a lover."

"No, I am not." She struggled to push him away, her hand directly pressed against his chest, "Lucas Knight, I hate you!" Had anyone ever bullied her like this?

This man, too cunning, too scheming.

At first, she tried to flirt with him, but no matter what, she couldn’t move him. And now? He’s done this and even threatened her, what is this supposed to mean?

"...What did you say?" Hate him? She’s the first to say such a thing; who told her to keep running away every day? She had been warned already not to provoke him, or she would face the consequences.

Normally, he wasn’t this angry, but since she eloped with Liam Coldwell and used him, any man would be furious.

Suddenly he shed his murderous intent and leaned close to her: "Tell me, who gave you the guts to use me?" Since this was the case, he could only take back his kindness towards her and even heartlessly said, "Remember this... you’ll soon need to take the medicine, I will have someone deliver it to you."

A woman like her doesn’t deserve his child.

Finished, he pinched her chin again: "Remember what I said, Eva Bennett, if you still don’t behave, I will have you continue to be handcuffed. And even..." administer medication to her.

"Ugh..." Her chin hurt terribly, "I’ll take it." It’s only birth control pills, right? She would take them. After all, she didn’t want to continue that kind of relationship with him or have a child.

Back then it was as if her brain was kicked by a damned donkey.

But being constantly imprisoned by him wasn’t a solution, she couldn’t beat him, and every time she argued with him, it would anger him, this time both hand and ankle cuffs were used.

The chains were so thick she simply couldn’t break free. What else could she do?

"Can we have a good talk?"

Lucas Knight was taken aback: "Sure." Her sudden gentleness startled him.

"Have you figured it out, ready to stay by my side obediently, not run anymore?"

"Hmm." She nodded, using her charms once more, "I... I want to take a shower, your scent is all over me, it’s too hot."

As she spoke, she wrapped her arms around his neck, her entire body entwined around him!!

It was the first time she’d seen someone so easy to deal with yet difficult to handle.

His means were ruthless, true to his name, but she knew, as long as she lowered herself, he’d immediately...

There was no point in arguing with him, now by just softening her tone a bit, he shed his coldness.

"Okay, I’ll carry you there." With a big hand, he scooped her up completely, holding her in his arms.

But this was not what Eva Nightingale wanted; she wanted him to unlock the cuffs from her.

"I want to shower by myself. So, can you unlock these cuffs for me... Being chained like this, my hands are cut and hurt..."

She never thought he’d really imprison her, even using chains and cuffs.

"Don’t think about playing tricks, be good." He understood her little schemes well, his big hand rested on her butt, "I’ll help you wash, hmm?"

That last word from him had a slight upward inflection, very manly, exuding a fatal allure.

For some reason, at this moment, she suddenly had a sense of illusion!

Wow!!

This man, suddenly warm?

A moment ago, he was making her take birth control pills, almost wanting to tear her apart, and now he’s speaking to her in such a gentle tone?
