Lucas Walker's personality was undoubtedly overly dominant and unyielding, yet his interests remarkably aligned with hers. This was evident from the leisure facilities he set up on the boat. If they had met in another way, she might have even been friends with him.
"I don't care!" Ivana Bennett had only spoken two words when Lucas Walker quickly stood up. "Don't think for a second that I'm pleading with you. Let me be clear, Bennett, whether you agree or not, in this life and beyond, you must remain by my side!"
For the first time in his life, he begged like this, only to be met with her words of dislike. It was more than he could bear.
This was the only way he could retain some semblance of pride.
How silly of her to show him any sympathy. Who did this brute think he was?
"Let me tell you something, Lucas Walker!" Ivana Bennett raised her chin in defiance. "I don't hate you, not one bit, because you're not even worth my hatred!"
Smack!
