Silence pervaded between them as they both looked at each other. Lukas has his brows raised in amusement while Nadia tries hard to avoid making eye contact with him.
"Ah?" Lukas retorted.
Nadia's face flushed beet red as she tried to come up with an excuse and failed to do so and ended up clicking her tongue in annoyance.
"I-I… Tsk."
Lukas watched her with merriment in his eyes.
"You do know that I'm a duke right. And slandering the duke is a crime," was his shameless reproach.
"Ugghh…"
'Really now? He is doing this?'
Lukas crossed both his arms.
"You called me stupid."
Nadia can't really rebuke that because it was true. He really did call him stupid in an accident.
"..."
Just then, a mischievous flame flared up inside Lukas's amethyst eyes and an evil smile made its way into his mouth.
"I will forgive you if you let me touch you."
Nadia was baffled.
'Shameless! Too shameless!'
