A Perfect Lie Hides Behind My Billionaire Marriage (reese and hudson)

When Reese saw their destination, she had no choice but to ask Lukas, "What are we going to have for dinner?"
She hoped that Lukas would remember her dietary restrictions since Reese was allergic to seafood.
Lukas, who was well aware of her allergy, ushered her into the Butterfly Pavilion and assured her, "We're here for the Sichuan
cuisine. I remember that you are allergic to seafood.
Reese's face lit up with a smile. Lukas took her to the Sichuan cuisine section of the restaurant, handed her the menu, and
asked her to make her selections.
Reese had a penchant for spicy food, so her choices tended to be on the milder side.
As soon as the menu was in Lukas' hands, he ordered several dishes with bold, spicy flavors. These included the head of a fish
with chopped peppers, slices of boiled meat, and spicy shrimp, among others.
When the waiter came to get the menu, they both spoke at the same time. "Spicy dishes, please!"

"Spicy?" Their eyes met each other as they uttered the same phrases, and their smiles were infectious.
Lukas' grin was especially pronounced. "I know you love spicy food, that's why!"
Reese couldn't help but smile. "But you can't handle spicy food, yet you dine with me in a Sichuan restaurant and order spicy
dishes."
Lukas' youthful smile widened. "Aren't your choices usually milder?"
Reese was taken aback. She had simply been aware of Lukas' aversion to spicy food, and her choices had been lighter dishes.
However, she hadn't expected Lukas to order for her.
They exchanged smiles and seemed to read each other's minds.
The waiter couldn't help but feel like a bystander witnessing an affectionate exchange as he watched their interaction.
Reese smiled and addressed the waiter, "Please prepare each dish in its traditional flavor.
The waiter nodded and left to deliver her order.

At the Butterfly Pavilion, service was prompt and the food arrived quickly. Since they were dining outdoors, Lukas's ability to

maintain decorum was at a premium, as he couldn't be a part of any affectionate gestures.
After their meal, the couple left the Butterfly Pavilion. As they paid the bill and made their way out, a familiar figure emerged from
the adjacent corridor.
There, Rona Young stood still. Her gaze was fixed on the door, her mind racing. She had watched Reese and Lukas for only a
moment. Yet she could sense a palpable shift in their dynamic. There was now an unmistakable sweetness to their connection
that left no doubt in her mind that they were deeply in love.
But it had not been like that before...
Rona remained dazed as she heard a melodious laugh coming from behind her. "What's the matter, Ms. Young? Are you feeling
jealous?"
Rona turned around to find Rose Gibbs, a celebrity who often portrayed the image of a delicate and innocent new actress in the
entertainment industry, walking up to her.
Rona's eyebrows furrowed. "What do you mean by that?"
Rose's smile widened. "I don't mean anything. I just wanted to remind you not to fixate on what doesn't belong to you. Prying too
much might just make you sick."
The last time Rose had found out about the relationship between Reese and Lukas, she had hired a private investigator to look
into Lukas' background. As a matter of fact, most of the people in high society were aware of Lukas' background.
