Chapter 2974: Chapter 164: Ben Lucas Begins to Treat Her Coldly (5)

Ben Lucas suddenly stopped all his movements.

He turned his head away, avoiding looking at Harrison Lucas, missing the fleeting shame and pain on Chester’s face.

Ben Lucas quickly suppressed his body’s excessive reaction, picked up the ointment that fell on the bed, and placed it on the nightstand.

With a low, cold voice, the man said, "In the future... apply the ointment yourself, if you can’t reach, you can ask the hotel’s waitress for help."

Ben Lucas’s dark, ink-black pupils looked elsewhere, not glancing at Harrison Lucas at all.

Harrison Lucas pulled up his clothes and sat up from the bed, seeing Ben Lucas looking aside, unwilling to spare him a glance.

Her dark eyes slightly trembled, almost shedding tears in that moment.

Yet she was, after all, a person trained by the military for many years. Even in such a desolate state, she refused to let a single tear fall.

By now, Harrison Lucas fully understood Ben Lucas’s heart. She took a deep breath, bit her lip, and murmured, "Hmm."

Ben Lucas noticed Harrison Lucas’s voice was a bit hoarse, and wanted to show some concern. Glancing sideways, he saw her scantily clad, with two slender, snow-white legs, and instinctively turned his eyes away, unwilling to look at her.

The man frowned, his handsome, deep-set features appearing even more chilling.

"I have something to attend to, I’ll head out first. You... have a good rest tonight, tomorrow I’ll take you somewhere." Ben Lucas didn’t want to stay in this room any longer. He slightly tugged at his tie, an impatience showing in his brow.

Harrison Lucas naturally didn’t miss any of the emotions Ben Lucas displayed.

She knew that the young master had reached his limit of tolerance for her.

Harrison Lucas didn’t know what was wrong with her. Clearly knowing what kind of result she would get, yet she couldn’t help but ask, "So tonight... will you come back to have dinner with me?"

Ben Lucas’s eyes paused slightly, speaking coldly, "Tonight I have..."

"It’s okay, I was just asking casually. Actually, I’m a bit tired today, planning to call for something to eat and then sleep early."

Ben Lucas didn’t doubt her; after all, Harrison Lucas had just recovered from an old illness, and more rest could do no harm.

He hastily explained a couple of sentences and then hurriedly left.

Harrison Lucas put her clothes back on, standing by the window, watching Ben Lucas disappear at the corner of the same road he had taken the past few days, a crazy thought suddenly occurred to her.

The young master is hiding something from her.

And she, as the young master’s most loyal subordinate for over twenty years, suddenly really wanted to know what Ben Lucas was hiding.

She... suddenly didn’t want to be that foolishly loyal subordinate anymore, even if it meant ’dying,’ she wanted to ’die’ with her eyes open.

...

Harrison Lucas changed into lighter clothes, put on a thick overcoat, and went out.

She followed the route Ben Lucas had taken, which she had observed over the past few days.

At that familiar corner, Harrison Lucas turned and then maintained a highly alert posture, tracking Ben Lucas down from one intersection to the next.

This old town in Europe has a history of over a thousand years, and the entire city isn’t large. The young master always left on foot, clearly indicating that the place he was headed wasn’t far.

Even though Harrison Lucas didn’t know where Ben Lucas went, she believed that as long as she constantly observed the various buildings on both sides of the road, she might very well discover the young master’s whereabouts.

Just as Harrison Lucas was about to give up after searching for more than four hours, she suddenly saw that familiar figure in front of her!

The tall and imposing man’s figure was obvious even among Europeans and Americans.

Harrison Lucas instinctively hid, taking cover behind a wall.

She peeked out slightly, seeing Ben Lucas enter a French restaurant across the street.
