Chapter 814 Tease

• Lucas gazed lovingly at Leigh, gently caressing her cheek. He posed a thoughtful question, his voice soft but sincere. "But don't you think that those who consider others often receive more in return than those who are selfish? Tell me, Leigh, would your feelings for me change if I were a selfish person?"
• Leigh's response was immediate and heartfelt as she wrapped her arm around his neck, her eyes sparkling mischievously. "Of course, I would still love you," she assured him, watching as his laughter filled the air, his eyes shining like stars. "No matter how you might change, my affection for you will remain constant."
• Amused by her declaration, Lucas playfully tapped her forehead. "You're quite the smooth talker," he teased. "The considerate person you see is the real me. If I ever became selfish, that wouldn't be me at all. It would be like a puppet under the control of some wandering spirit."
