Chapter 114
Lukas’s pupils slightly contracted as he turned away from the approaching figure, but he could guess the person’s identity, and a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes.
My expression did not look better.
When James shouted, everyone looked at me. I was annoyed and embarrassed, and wanted to kick James away.
James could not see anyone else in his eyes. His purple earrings seemed to be flashing arrogantly as he walked.
He walked straight towards my side.
The billiards room on the attic of Butterfly Pavilion was directly connected to the garage.
“These days, as I continue to play elsewhere, I always think of you playing pool. I didn’t expect to be so lucky as to see you here today.”
He walked towards me without looking sideways.
Cole pulled Olivia’s hand away from his arm and subconsciously stood in front of me.
However, James didn’t look at him at all. His eyes fell on me who was behind Cole, and his lips hooked, “Skylar, I thought you left already.”
I felt countless gazes falling on me. I couldn’t help but frown, but I replied politely and alienated, “Mr. King, we are leaving soon.”
James did not care: “What a coincidence, I have to leave too. Where are you going? I’ll send you off.”
I frowned and refused: “Thank you, Mr. King, for your kindness, but you don’t need to accompany me.”
Everyone present had different thoughts.
Nobody was blind; Lukas face visibly darkened when James approached
James simply ignored Lukas.
The two of them had always been enemies, but now with the three sides were facing off against each other, James could only see me. It was obvious that he was provoking Lukas.
When James heard my words, he’s expression changed, instead, he smiled condescendingly: “No need to accompany you, that’s fine, Next time, let’s play together.”
I didn’t expect that James would be so difficult to deal with. Couldn’t he see that I didn’t want to get involved too much with him?
My face turned cold. “Mr. King, I’m sorry, I don’t like to play with people I don’t know well.”
James’s eyes sank slightly, and then he raised his eyebrows and laughed, “So, I’m not even considered a familiar person in your
heart?”
At this moment, Lukas, who had been lent the whole time, frowned and said solemnly, “James, enough is enough.”
James turned around and sneered, “I’m challenging Skylar to a game, not your wife. It’s none of your business.”

Chapter 114
When Elias heard this, a playful light flashed in his eyes. He hooked his lips playfully and looked at me.
I felt a bit awkward as I was, in name, really Lukas’s wife.
Lukas was overbearing, and he probably wouldn’t like me getting too close James, Jet alone inviting me to play a game…
I subtly glanced at Lukas.
Lukas’s expression became even colder at a speed that could be seen with the naked eye.
He glanced at me, and I immediately lowered my head.
He looked at James coldly again: “James, people need to be self–aware.”
James’s expression changed, and his expression became cold and evil.
This was to say that I had just indicated I wasn’t familiar with him, so he had no self–awareness to know when to back off.
He stared intently at me, his tone losing its previous casualness. “Skylar, do you think I’m not familiar enough with you to challenge you to a game? Are you belittling me?”
Gwendolyn saw that Lukas and James were at odds with each other, and it seemed that they might fight at any time.
Although she was afraid of James, she did not want him to face off against Lukas.
She glared at me fiercely, and quickly pulled on James’s arm: “Cousin, don’t quarrel with Lukas, that’s not what he meant.”
After she said that, she secretly glanced at Lukas with her admiration and obsession.
Lukas did not even look at her.
James sneered, “Why are you still looking at him after so many years? You’re not blind, right? He doesn’t take you seriously at all.”
Gwendolyn’s face was a little ugly: “Cousin!”
I was a little surprised. Hearing James’s words and Gwendolyn’s tone, and looking at her gaze towards Lukas, these people seemed to be familiar with each other, and they seemed to have known each other for many years.
I blinked, but did not say anything, trying to reduce my sense of existence.
It was a pity that James, who did not want to cause trouble for me at first, was provoked by Gwendolyn and had to fight her.
He looked at me fixedly, and his tone was no longer as condescending as before: “Skylar, are you not familiar with me? You think I don’t have the self–knowledge. It’s very expensive to make an appointment with me.”
