"I want you, Eleua Monticelli."
Elle blinked in disbelief at those words. How was that possible? A statement that sounded meaningful and immediately melted her heart as a woman came from the mouth of a married man. Worse, the words were not addressed to his wife. "You're crazy." Yes, it was the only response that crossed her mind. Lucas must be out of his mind.
"Yes. I must be crazy of you, Elle."
And Elle could only roll her eyes lazily. If she had heard it before knowing the truth about Lucas, perhaps she would have blushed and rejoiced at the same time. But that situation would never happen again. It was enough for her to be deceived by his kindness and sincerity. She didn't want to fool her heart and living up to empty hopes.
"Be careful of what you say, or you'll make me sick of you even more." She warned Lucas. Another meaning behind it was to stop seducing her.
