Mrs. Without a License Chapter 7
Stroking my head, Michael murmured, "I have to say, Lucas is quite ruthless. Yelena almost died saving his life, yet he showed her no mercy when punishing her."I didn't care about what was going on with Lucas and Yelena now—none of that had anything to do with me anymore.Still, I couldn't help but pity Yelena to some extent. Lucas shouldn't have put all the blame on her. After all, he himself was the biggest reason why I left.I didn't care about Yelena, so she couldn't harm me. But I had loved Lucas dearly, so the pain he caused me cut unimaginably deep.Thankfully, I no longer had any feelings for him. Nothing he did could hurt me anymore.Taking a deep breath, I curled my lips into a smile. "Michael, you don't have to tell me any news about them from now on. I just want to focus on myself right now. I want to live every day well, not be stuck in the past."Michael returned my smile. "Actually, I don't want to keep an eye on Lucas anymore either. Since you're no longer with h

After returning to Mannington, I threw myself back into furthering my studies and never paid any attention to news about Lucas again.However, Michael kept an eye on him on my behalf. Somehow, he always got accurate information on Lucas, detailing everything he did, like how he had shut himself up at home for three days.Back when I had first started seeing Lucas, Michael had planted some spies by his side. It was his way of protecting me—he had been worried he wouldn't be able to come to my aid in time if Lucas did anything to harm me.Even though he didn't like Lucas, he had to grudgingly admit that Lucas had treated me very well for the past decade. Members of the mafia led dangerous lives, but Lucas had always done his best to ensure no harm ever came to me.Nonetheless, he hadn't expected that I would still be unmarried after ten years of being with Lucas. He was ecstatic when he found out and even started talking to Dad about finding a better man for me to marry.Yet all I c

Lucas stared numbly at the screen, his eyes quickly becoming bloodshot. My last sentence before I fell into the ocean kept ringing in his ears. "Sorry, but I have a flight to catch. I'm in a hurry to leave Lucas."He knew then that I had been willing to do anything to leave him—even die.The agony and despair that came from that realization made his legs go weak, and he slowly dropped to his knees.His subordinates were dumbfounded. Never had they expected the leader of Devil's Advocate, who had always been so strong and terrifying, to actually have such a weak side to him.However, they were also well aware that I had stood by Lucas' side for the past decade and had helped him build Devil's Advocate. To him, I was even more important than the entire organization.All of a sudden, something seemed to occur to Lucas. He jumped into his car and sped toward the bridge I had fallen off of.The scene of the incident was a mess, with search and rescue workers scouring the place. Luca

"What did you say?" Lucas demanded in a trembling voice, his eyes swiftly reddening.Miles steeled himself before saying, "Something has happened to Ms. Lucille. Members of Black Widow kidnapped her while she was on the way to the airport.""Why was she going to the airport? Didn't I tell her to reflect on her actions at home? Why didn't she listen to me?" Utterly infuriated, Lucas slammed a fist into the wall.Yelena, who was on the hospital bed, instantly paled in fear.Miles replied shakily, "According to our investigation, Ms. Lucille booked a flight to Mannington."Lucas was stunned. For the past ten years—seven spent dating and three in a fake marriage—I had never once left his side.Sighing, he said, "She's probably angry at me. In all the years we've been together, I've never spoken to her so harshly before. But she truly crossed the line this time. "Yelena risked her life to save me back then, but Lucille hurt her out of jealousy. If Lucille really didn't want to see Y

Yelena was drunk, so Lucas wanted to leave with her first. Before he did, he told me, "I'll take Yelena home first, then come back later to pick you up. Wait for me."He looked at me intently, unease swirling in his eyes."Okay," I answered. After that, I waited outside the bar for the entire night, yet there was no sign of him."He must have forgotten about me," I thought with a self-mocking laugh.I returned home to grab my luggage. Yet the moment I opened the door, I spotted Yelena stepping out of my room wearing my pajamas.My fingers curled into tight fists, the nails digging deep into my palms. I had known that Yelena would eventually move in, but I still couldn't help but be upset when I actually saw it happen.I moved to step past her so I could get my luggage, but she blocked the doorway. "What are you doing here? I'm the true lady of this house and Lucas' legal wife. You, on the other hand, are nothing but a filthy, shameless mistress. How dare you come back here? For

Once I regained my composure, I noticed that Lucas had called and messaged me about 99 times. He had even ordered his men to look for me.Since it was our third wedding anniversary, I had planned out everything ahead of time so that I would be able to return home earlier and prepare a candlelight dinner for us. Lucas must have truly panicked when he got home and didn't see any signs of me.Yet, if he were truly that scared of losing me, then why would he allow another woman to become his wife?He must have simply gotten used to my presence. This was just like how an owner would panic if their dog or cat went missing.I called him back. "Sorry, my phone ran out of battery just now."Worry and fear were thick in Lucas' voice as he replied, "You scared me half to death! Do you know that we're having a power struggle with Black Widow right now? I thought you'd been kidnapped! I was even about to take 100 million dollars there to get you back!"I couldn't help but laugh, even as my ey
