Chapter 2901 - 91: Secretly in Love
Ben Lucas heard such an answer, his handsome face marked by his usual depth.
The shirts were hanging neatly in the wardrobe, clearly not kept aside as old clothes ready for washing.
Ben Lucas piercingly saw through Harrison Lucas’s excuse, "Clothes for washing hanging in the wardrobe... Harrison Lucas, what kind of habit is this? Or are all the other clothes in the wardrobe ready for washing?"
Harrison Lucas felt a tingling at the scalp, thinking Ben Lucas’s breath while he spoke near his ear was truly too itchy.
She instinctively shrunk her neck forward, explaining, "Because they’re the clothes of the eldest young master, I put them in the wardrobe. If they were my own clothes for washing, I’d just toss them in the laundry basket."
In order to prevent Ben Lucas from not believing her, Harrison Lucas further explained, gritting her teeth, "I do this to show respect to the eldest young master, separating your clothes from mine. Before, when there was a nanny, Auntie used to do it. This time, Auntie isn’t here, and it’s my first time doing it. If the eldest young master has any dissatisfaction, you can point it out, and I will definitely change."
Very well.
Ben Lucas heard ’he’ addressing ’eldest young master’ one time after another, that businesslike attitude clearly wanting to distance himself, turning the already cold expression even darker.
But Ben Lucas was annoyed yet not foolish.
He hadn’t forgotten the two shirts that had vanished from his wardrobe.
His photographic memory naturally reminded him that these two shirts hadn’t been worn by him at all recently.
The man quietly surveyed the surroundings, seeking more clues, his dark eyes settling onto the simply clean bed nestled towards the inner side.

Suddenly, Ben Lucas grabbed Harrison Lucas by the waist, lifting him up.
"Ah..." Harrison Lucas’s feet dangled in the air, uncontrollably calling out softly.
She instinctively clung to Ben Lucas’s broad shoulders, but the next second she felt the world spin—
When Harrison Lucas found her support again, her back pressing against the hard mattress, she had already been firmly pinned down by Ben Lucas.
The mature man’s aura surrounded her breath.
When Harrison Lucas slightly opened her eyes, she saw Ben Lucas’s firm, broad chest, the taut muscle lines brimming with explosive force, reminding her of the nights of intimacy shared with this man in the past.
Her gaze flickered slightly, her ear tips visibly turning red.
"Debby, do you like me?" Ben Lucas’s low, deep voice sounded at this moment.
Just now the man completely filled with a strong coldness, at this moment laid down all the ice, opening in a deeply calm and even somewhat joyful voice.
Harrison Lucas paused for a moment, clearly not expecting Ben Lucas to ask this.
She thought the eldest young master was angry with her, didn’t want to deal with her, had come knocking in the dead of night with that icy, terrifying attitude, thinking he came to demand answers.
Completely unexpected was the sudden change in Ben Lucas’s attitude.
"I... eldest young master... I... I don’t know what you are talking about." Harrison Lucas was truly at a loss.
Completely unaware of why Ben Lucas’s attitude changed so quickly, unsure of how to face him.
Should she pretend everything is fine, or should she apologize to the eldest young master, Harrison Lucas did not understand, nor could she guess, only in an extremely innocent state looking at the man’s deep and dark eyes.
But Ben Lucas considered Harrison Lucas’s attitude as being duplicitous.
He reached out his long index finger, gently scratching Harrison Lucas’s pointed nose, saying in a coaxing tone, "How long will you keep deceiving me... You privately stash my clothes in the wardrobe, even laying down the sheets I used on the bed. Debby, you actually like me, have secretly liked me all along, am I right?"
