James's temperament was a bit rough, but he had restrained himself in front of Reese for fear of scaring her.
Now, when he heard what Reese said, his emotions exploded as well. "Yes, | know that you are married to him,
and | have tried hard to keep my distance from you. How long has it been since we last saw each other? You can

James stared at Reese and tried to suppress his anger. "If Lukas really cared about you, why did he let you spend

As he poured out all of the emotions that had been accumulating in his heart for many days, James felt that a lot
of weight had been lifted from his shoulders.
He looked at Reese intently. "If he treats you badly, why won't | tell you about my feelings for you? At least | can
treat you better than him. Lukas really doesn't care about you. Otherwise, when we were in the car just now, he
would not have casually hung up your phone, nor would | have turned off the phone after a disagreement,
making you worry all the time. See for yourself, how many times have you looked at your cellphone at this
moment? Reese, | feel sorry for you, do you understand?"
Hearing James's indignant words, Reese looked a little confused.
After a long time, she slowly shook her head: "James, that's not what you said. Lukas... he is not that kind of
person!"
Even if he hung up the phone, even if he turned the phone off, even if he had an affair with someone else, even
if he had a bad temper!
But she knew that he was good to her, and no matter what happened, as long as he knew about it, he would
take the initiative to stand for her.
Little by little, she was moved by him, and she didn't know when he had taken a permanent place in her heart.
Thinking about it, she took a deep breath and calmly looked at James, "James, since we are having dinner
together today, letmake it clear. | don't want to have any feelings for you, so stop pursuing me. It's just a
fantasy, it's not worth it, the person | like... is Lukas, no matter what he's like, | just like him!"
James's face was extremely ugly. "Reese! Even if he treats you badly, do you still like him?"
Reese was slightly startled and nodded seriously. "Yes, even if he may not treatright, I still like him!"
Besides, Lukas couldn't be considered unfriendly to her.
James simply didn't know the situation.
Thinking about it, she continued, "Let's get out of here today. I'm full. As for the overseas transfer you
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmentioned, | will pay attention to it as well. If | think of anything, I will let you know in time. Thank you for
helpinginvestigate this matter these days, thank you very much!"
James stared at Reese with an angry face and said nothing.
He had finally figured it out. After Reese saw his purpose today, he wanted to draw a clear line with him.
He was extremely annoyed. Reese is such a gem, so why should Lukas be the one who would get her?
Reese watched James's chest rise and fall and sighed helplessly, "I'll leave first, you should go back early!"
After Reese finished speaking, he stood up and left.
As soon as she reached the door of the restaurant, James called out. "Reese!"
Reese steadied his steps and turned to look at him. "What's wrong?"
James looked at her intently. "Did Lukas know that | called you and warned you to stay away from me?"
