Chapter 2899 - 89: So Scared My Chest Binder Fell Off
In the bathroom, within the independent space separated by transparent glass, Ben Lucas was standing under the showerhead with his eyes closed, letting the warm water cascade down his face.
He knew that his feelings for Harrison Lucas were becoming increasingly unclear.
Perhaps it’s because this was the first time he had ever liked someone. Even though the time for this relationship was so brief, he felt as if he had already fallen deeply in love, already thinking of the future, wanting to spend ’The rest of our lives’ with ’him’.
Ben Lucas has always been a proud person. Even if he liked someone, he wouldn’t allow himself to bow down.

Indeed, he really liked Harrison Lucas. It’s precisely because he liked him so much that he cared more about Harrison Lucas’s opinions of Jennifer Connor or, in other words, other women.
Proud like Ben Lucas, even if he really liked Harrison Lucas, if Harrison Lucas was truly forced to be with him, and ’he’ actually preferred women rather than men... then he wouldn’t bow and scrape to demand, nor forcibly bend the other party with his own identity and status.
Ben Lucas was planning to wait for Harrison Lucas to come to him and lay it out.
Before then, he wouldn’t make any moves.
The image left in his mind was still of Harrison Lucas today on the dance floor, dancing gracefully and joyfully with another woman.
Whenever he recalled it, his heart ached for a moment.
But this pain also made Ben Lucas clear-headed, only at this moment did he finally realize that since last night’s forced confession and relationship with Harrison Lucas began, he seemed never to have given Harrison Lucas the chance to choose.
Perhaps this was why Harrison Lucas, due to his identity, concealed his true sexual orientation and reluctantly accepted this confession from his superior.
At this moment, Ben Lucas’s heart was quite complex. He lifted his arm to wipe away the water on his face, habitually reaching to press down one side of the body wash.
When the body wash was pressed into his palm, a familiar, sweet fruity fragrance instantly spread throughout the entire bathroom.
The sweet fragrance filled the entire bathroom.
Ben Lucas’s body froze slightly, as if the entire person became fixed, stiff under the showerhead.
The splashing water meandered down his slender and strong body, with every muscle of the man’s body tense, highlighting the explosive muscular lines.
This familiar, sweet fruity fragrance, mixed with a bit of cream scent, was Harrison Lucas’s scent.
Ben Lucas suddenly swept his gaze toward the compartment holding the body wash, only to find that the body wash and shampoo here had long been personally replaced with the same brand often used by Harrison Lucas.
Just smelling this familiar scent, it was as if he was already embracing Harrison Lucas.
In this bathroom filled with lingering steam, the man was completely naked, if he really had Debby at this moment, he undoubtedly would press ’him’ against the glass of the shower room and enact ’his’ place.
Jealousy, envy, impulsivity, irritation... all these emotions flooded in, the last shred of Ben Lucas’s reason submerged by the fantasy occurring in his mind.
He no longer hesitated, turning off the showerhead, striding out of the bathroom, casually pulling down the bath towel nearby, tying it around his waist, and heading downstairs with big steps.
At this moment, Harrison Lucas was already in the room on the second floor, having finished bathing, and was struggling to wrap the chest binder.
He was just about to loop the chest binder from behind to the front and adjust it when suddenly, the thunderous sound of door knocking came from outside the room.
"Who—" Harrison Lucas was startled, his hand shook, and the cloth head he was holding slipped out of his grasp.
Meanwhile, outside the door came a man’s low voice, tinged with rage: "It’s me, Ben Lucas. Harrison Lucas, open the door—"
