Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love-Chapter 868 - 871 Who Was the Woman Last Night (4)
Chapter 868: Chapter 871 Who Was the Woman Last Night (4)
Oddly, there was no revulsion, no feeling of nausea. He felt no physiological repulsion to the scent left behind by this woman.
A flicker of doubt crossed the man’s pitch-black eyes.
He began to suspect that the woman who had spent the wild night with him was not Milly Gray.
Even so, the man’s expression remained icy.
Even though the scent didn’t disgust him, he still didn’t like the feeling of embracing an unknown woman unconsciously.
Now, all he hoped was that his own taste would not turn out to be so poor as to make him feel sick.
After all, Hannah Ford, once favored by another Aidan Lucas, was a woman he simply couldn’t stomach.

Aidan Lucas emerged from the bathroom, his waist wrapped only in a bath towel.
He walked to the nightstand and noticed the hotel information placed on it, his expression momentarily hesitating.
This five-star hotel was located downtown, right next to the high-end restaurant where Milly Gray had arranged to meet him last night.
A deadly chill tinged the man’s frosty eyes.

He hated being schemed against the most.
But now, it was apparent that the person scheming against him was Milly Gray.
The proximity of the hotel and the restaurant could only mean that it was a premeditated move by Milly Gray.
The man’s gaze darkened, casting doubt upon the scent that he had just smelled on his fingertips.
If it was planned, how could there have been a mistake?
Was the woman from last night really not Milly Gray?
He picked up the phone from the nightstand and dialed Benjamin Lucas IX’s number.
…
Twenty minutes later, an anxious Benjamin Lucas IX, accompanied by a large group of subordinates in black, arrived on the floor of the hotel where Aidan Lucas was staying.
Standing outside Room 2280, Benjamin Lucas IX felt uneasy as he pressed the doorbell.
“For heaven’s sake, let it not be that stinking witch Milly Gray opening the door, please let it not be that stinking witch Milly Gray…”
Benjamin Lucas IX silently cursed, wishing he could kneel and pray for it.
Last night must have been an accursed stroke of bad luck to have been duped by that stinking witch Milly Gray.
It was all because he had been careless while accompanying Mr. Lucas to the restaurant.
Milly Gray suddenly said she wanted to drink the red wine from the Lucas family’s wine cellar.
If she couldn’t have it, it would affect her mood, and she wouldn’t be able to discuss the matter concerning the young master with Mr. Lucas.
Although Chester could speak a few words being close to the young master,
Benjamin Lucas IX had to admit that, compared to Harrison Lucas, who only silently protected the young master, Milly Gray’s tactics were far more skilled.
Fearing that Milly Gray would throw a tantrum and stop coaxing the young master, Benjamin Lucas IX had no choice but to return to the Lucas family once to fetch the wine for Milly Gray.
Who would have known, upon his return, both Mr. Lucas and Milly Gray had disappeared.
He sent people out, scouring all the places they might be, but there was no sign of them.
Out of options, he had to beat around the bush with The Taylors.
However, he was smart enough not to ask directly but used another reason to find out that Milly Gray wasn’t at home.
Although Benjamin Lucas IX often swore, in reality, he was a bold yet meticulous man.
He had an intuition that this matter was most likely related to Milly Gray.
To avoid Milly Gray taking advantage of the situation to latch onto Mr. Lucas, Benjamin Lucas IX had been worried and frightened all night, daring not call anyone else, but had to quietly let his men investigate in secret.
Those close to Mr. Lucas knew that in the recent two years, both The Taylors and Madam had been anxious for Mr. Lucas to remarry.
However, Mr. Lucas simply did not like women.
Thus, this matter couldn’t be blown out of proportion.
If things got out of hand and Mr. Lucas ended up marrying that stinking witch Milly Gray, not only would Mr. Lucas be disgusted, but their subordinates would feel sick as well.
