Chapter 25 You Are My Wife
“What are you doing here?”
Tiara was quite happy to see Lucas.
Lucas glanced at Tiara, considerately lowered the air conditioning in the back row, and took a shawl to cover her. “Did you run into trouble?”
By that time, Tiara should have come out of this road. Lucas was almost planning to get out of the car to check on her.
“It’s just a minor matter.” Tiara gestured with her fingers, indicating that the problem wasn’t big, but when she raised her hand, she inadvertently made a sound. “Hiss.”
Hearing Tiara’s gasp, Lucas frowned and held her hand. “Are you injured?”
His cold face and cold voice conveyed his displeasure.
Tiara quickly explained, “No, it has been a
long time since I exercised last time, and my muscles feel a bit sore.”
Afraid that Lucas wouldn’t believe her, Tiara turned to face him. “If you don’t believe me, take a look. Do I look injured anywhere?”
Lucas stared at Tiara and suddenly reached out, lightly pinching her cheeks with his thumb and forefinger.
Tiara was speechless.
Raising her chin slightly, Lucas carefully observed her from her neck, collarbone, to her arms…
His gaze was like an X–ray, thoroughly scanning Tiara’s body. Then he nodded. “Okay!”
Tiara instantly blushed.
Although Lucas didn’t make any excessive movements, Tiara felt as if he had caressed her whole body with his gaze, making her body feel hot and restless.
Tiara just said it casually, but Lucas took it

seriously.
Tiara felt much less resentful.

To be honest, it was impossible not to feel resentful. Tiara had known Darren for so many years, and in her perception, he had always been a gentle and courteous man. But the series of events that had happened recently repeatedly changed her opinion.
Darren cheated on her, and he also schemed against her. After completely tearing off his facade, he even wanted to use force…
Tiara had completely given up on Darren. But given their five–year relationship, she couldn’t easily let it go and move on. Besides anger, there was sadness and disappointment.
“Promise me one thing.” Lucas‘ hand returned to Tiara’s chin, and his thumb gently caressed her lips.
“What?”
“No matter when, don’t put yourself in danger.”

As Lucas spoke, Tiara suddenly felt a coolness on her wrist.
Looking down, she saw a silver watch there,
The watch was small but finely crafted, and the hands inside were moving slowly and leisurely.
Tiara rarely wore watches, and it was unexpected for Lucas to suddenly give her
one.
“This watch has global positioning and one- touch calling functions. Wear it.”
Tiara was stunned. After a few seconds, she joked with a smile, “Are you trying to secretly monitor me?”
Of course, Tiara understood that the watch Lucas gave her meant that she could seek his help at any time. It was difficult for her not to be moved by his thoughtfulness.
Holding Tiara’s hand with one hand, Lucas said softly with another hand lingering on her red lips. “It’s not secret monitoring but real-

time tracking.”

“Why are you so good to me?” Looking into Lucas‘ eyes, Tiara asked with some confusion.
Although they hadn’t been together for a long time, Lucas was really good to Tiara.
The things Lucas had done for Tiara these past few days were things that Darren had never done and would never be able to do.
“Because … you’re my wife.”
As Lucas finished speaking, he drew closer and directly pressed his lips against Tiara’s, kissing her passionately.
Tiara tilted her head back and actively responded to him.
She was a little shy but didn’t avoid it. Her response was a great encouragement to Lucas.
He gave a smile of satisfaction and kissed Tiara more affectionately.

When Darren returned home, he looked disheveled.
He never expected that one day he would be threatened with a knife at his neck, and that person was Tiara!
How could Tiara be so good at martial arts? Darren didn’t know when she began to practice. What else did she keep from him?
Darren stepped on a piece of broken glass, making a crisp sound.
He looked over and saw a mess.
In the midst of the mess, Leticia sat on the sofa in the living room, holding a cushion in her arms. When she saw Darren looking at her, she immediately raised her hand and threw it at him. “You finally decided to come back!”
Unfortunately, the cushion missed Darren and hit the door behind him before falling to the ground.
“What are you doing?”

After bending down to pick the cushion up, Darren carefully avoided the shards and walked over to sit next to Leticia,
Although it was expected, this scene made Darren feel bothered.
“You tell me.” Sitting up straight, Leticia turned to look at Darren. “I’m asking you. What should we do now? You heard everything Tiara said at the press conference. I told you she couldn’t be trusted! But you refused to believe me! Now, she’s sticking to her story and won’t back down. Do you know that I’m even afraid to open Twitter now?”
“Why are you afraid?” Darren asked. “You have nothing to hide. You’re innocent.”
“Enough. Say these words to the reporters. Right now, I need you to come up with a solution, not just appease me!”
Leticia held onto Darren’s arm, acting coquettish. She left the press conference in anger because there was no way for her to continue questioning Tiara.

Tiara’s behavior would be detrimental to Leticia. It was better to show anger and leave first.
“Now you want me to think of a solution? Why didn’t you mention it when we left the press conference?” Darren glared at Leticia, looking clearly unhappy. “Do you know how the reporters will write about your sudden. departure? They’ll think you’re frustrated and guilty.”
“If I stayed, wouldn’t the situation be worse? Tiara believes in our relationship. She’s trying to destroy me!”
Leticia gave a gloomy look, and her big eyes were filled with tears. “Darren, what did I do wrong? I love you! These past few years, I made fame by using her perfumes, but she always had a grip on you!
“You know, in my heart, nothing is more important than you! Tiara has taken away my most cherished thing. What’s wrong with me gaining some benefit? Now that she’s causing such a big scene, she will push us and Wave Perfume toward a dead end. Darren, Tiara

doesn’t care about you. She doesn’t have any concern for you at all!”
What Leticia said pierced Darren’s heart like a knife, and it was exactly what he had been thinking.
If Tiara had some lingering affection, she wouldn’t behave so recklessly.
Thinking back to that dagger against his neck, Darren felt a chill down his spine.
“Since Tiara is so ruthless, she can’t blame me for being heartless.”
Darren’s face twisted into a grimace. “She thinks that knowing the formula and creativity is enough, but she doesn’t realize the official authorities only value evidence. And we have evidence!”
“What do you mean? Are we going to sue Tiara?” Leticia was just bluffing.
If they sued Tiara, it would only bring trouble and potentially stir up even more trouble.
“Yes, we are! And not only are we going to
sue Tiara, but everyone will know about it!”
