Chapter 2849: Chapter 39: Drinking Capacity Training on the Third Night (1)

After Ben Lucas searched the small building from top to bottom, he finally confirmed Harrison Lucas’s whereabouts.

He stood still outside Harrison Lucas’s room, reached out to grasp the doorknob, attempting to gently twist it— the doorknob didn’t budge.

Well, in broad daylight, it was just a small weight-bearing training, and Harrison Lucas was actually knocked down like this.

Ben Lucas’s deep, dark eyes flashed with cold light. He stood outside Harrison Lucas’s door, wearing an expression of cold and fierce demeanor, as if warning strangers not to approach, staring at the tightly closed door.

No one knew what he was thinking about.

It wasn’t until a few minutes later that the indifferent, silent man suddenly made a move.

Ben Lucas released his grip on the doorknob, glanced deeply at the tightly closed door once more, and turned to leave...

Separated by a door, Harrison Lucas, who was sleeping deeply on the bed, was unaware that just a few seconds ago, a man stood outside, barely a step away from breaking in.

...

Back in the study room upstairs, Ben Lucas maintained his usual composure, his handsome, unparalleled features covered with a layer of coldness, seemingly completely unaffected by Harrison Lucas’s actions downstairs.

Such a weak deputy, exhausted by just an additional training session.

Thinking of Harrison Lucas’s final stubbornness, preferring to be supported by unfamiliar young soldiers outside rather than allowing himself to be touched, Ben Lucas’s already cold eyes turned even darker.

He opened the dossier and once again immersed himself in work...

Harrison Lucas kept on sleeping and sleeping, and didn’t know how long it had been until the intermittent pain in her stomach finally woke her up.

When she was awakened by the pain and opened her eyes again, the window was already pitch black outside.

How long did she sleep?

Is it already tonight?

Harrison Lucas thought about missing preparing lunch and dinner for the young master, and hurriedly sat up from the bed.

"Hiss..." But as soon as she got up, she couldn’t help but gasp, clutching her stomach and fell back down.

Her whole body still ached with fatigue, but compared to the muscular soreness, her stomach hurt more.

She hadn’t eaten a bite of food in the morning and was forced to go out for extra training, her body had been overstretched, and she subsequently missed lunch and dinner back to back.

Harrison Lucas couldn’t help but clench her teeth and complain to herself in her mind— Harrison Lucas, you’re really killing yourself, knowing your stomach isn’t well, yet you dare to skip three meals in a row.

Her stomach was ruined from the past when she was doing tasks with the young master at the border.

It was common to not have enough to eat or get warm food in the wild, and Harrison Lucas, who was picky and only liked sweets since childhood, later joined the military and forced herself to change this habit.

Unfortunately, because of the irregular eating habits, her gastrointestinal ended up with chronic issues.

No time to think about whether the young master had eaten dinner, Harrison Lucas forced herself to get up from the bed again, dragging her exhausted body toward the door.

She needed to eat something to fill her stomach, if not, even a sip of hot water would do.

Starving and muddleheaded, Harrison Lucas clambered down from the bed, clutching her stomach as she made her way to the kitchen downstairs. ℴℴ𝘮

Unexpectedly, as she reached the first floor staircase entrance, she saw a tall, familiar figure leaning slantingly on the living room sofa, his slender fingers holding a glass of whiskey with ice, the glass just resting on his lips.

Hearing the sound from the staircase entrance, the man gazed at her through the rim of the glass with his deep, dark eyes.

"Y-Young Master..." Now, Harrison Lucas’s mind was more muddled than usual, and upon seeing Ben Lucas with the glass, she instinctively called out to him.

Harrison Lucas’s mind was not clear, and at this moment she could only feel the strong, rolling pain in her stomach, as if something was flipping inside, along with the soreness and pain transmitted from every muscle in her body being pulled.
