Capítulo 749: What Do You Take Me For?

"If staying away is what you truly want, I will oblige," he said, stepping back to create some distance. "Now tell me, what has angered you?"

She stared at him in disbelief. "How would you even understand? For someone like you, such behavior must be normal." She took a step forward and held the door. "Go ahead and have as many women as you like, but don't think for a second that I will ever be one of them. I will never be the wife of a man like you!"

Before she could close the door, Lucian stopped it with his hand. His gaze was steady as he said, "I don't know what's on your mind, but one thing is certain and will never change: the only wife I will ever have is you."

Her eyes met his determined gaze, and for a moment, she felt herself waver. But then she remembered the young woman from earlier, thanking him for accepting her, and her anger flared again. 'What a Liar!'
