Chapter 181: Why Don't You Divorce That Pathetic Excuse Of A Husband Of Yours?

After Lucifer and Jessica left, the two male officers entered Miranda's office, closing the door behind them.

The first officer to speak was John, and he said, "We have already checked their personal information, Chief. And there doesn't seem anything suspicious about them."

"What was the outcome of this meeting?" the other officer, Smith, asked.

"Nothing much, Smith." Miranda responded as she continued to work on her paperwork, not lifting her eyes to look at the officer, "There isn't any other evidence or witnesses, so we don't have anything that can make us think they are connected to the case in any way."

With a sigh, Officer Smith asked again, "Well, I understand that we don't have any leads yet, but did you sense anything from those two? Was there any hint of special abilities? Did they trigger anything?"

"That is the main reason I brought them to the investigation room, and as you two may have seen, there wasn't any radiation of special energy around them. If they were any of those gifted or awakened ones, that special equipment would have captured the slightest change in their aura." Miranda said as she exhaled a puff of smoke. Then she continued, "And you saw their relationship and background details. They have nothing to do with that case. It's just that they happened to be caught at the wrong place at the wrong time."

After that, Miranda put out her cigarette and grabbed a pile of papers on her table. Then, without taking her eyes off them, she added, "And as for you, John. Tell the staff that they should let Mr. Reynolds through whenever he comes and wishes to meet me. No matter what time, day, or situation, make sure they let him through without any trouble."

"Yes, Chief Miranda. Understood." John nodded before leaving the room with Smith.

At that same time, Lucifer and Jessica were standing in the parking lot of the station.

Lucifer leaned against his car, watching Jessica's voluptuous body and her luscious lips. "Shall we go to some hotel? I am hungry for you, Jessica," he asked, not caring about her reaction and hoping that she was just as ready to continue from where they had left off in the presidential suite a few nights ago.

"No, Lucifer. My husband knows I am at the police station right now." Jessica looked down, avoiding his gaze. "So, let's do this another time, please. Otherwise, he will be suspicious of us, and that could cause a lot of trouble. You don't want us to end up in the news for all the wrong reasons, right?"

"Sigh... You are killing the mood, Jessica." Lucifer sighed in disappointment. "Why don't you divorce that pathetic excuse of a husband of yours? Then you will be mine, and we can have all the sex whenever we want."

"Lucifer! You do know that I can't just go and divorce my husband out of nowhere. I need to find a definite proof of his extramarital affair and then use that to divorce him. There is no way I will let go of the share in our business, money, and property that easily." Jessica stated in a tone that conveyed her determination and refusal to back down from her decision.

However, despite her firm stance, a part of her heart skipped a beat and started to feel giddy when Lucifer talked about being his, and she found herself unable to suppress the excitement that welled up inside her. Her thoughts began to drift toward him, and she felt a longing and a deep desire to be with him that she had never felt before.

Seeing Lucifer, all handsome and standing in front of her, with a hint of a smirk on his face, Jessica couldn't help thinking about kissing him again, but knowing that they were outside in the public eye made her stop herself from taking the action.

But her heart kept fluttering in a strange and exciting way. She couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to feel his warm lips against hers again.

Lucifer, on the other hand, smiled and nodded, "Oh, I get it. You do deserve your share after spending so many years with that bastard and enduring his actions. So, once you find that proof, divorce him, and then we will have plenty of time together. In the meantime, until that day, you just keep your legs open and ready for me whenever I desire."

"Shut your mouth, Lucifer," Jessica scolded him playfully as she lightly slapped his chest. "I won't deny that you are one hell of a lover, and I love having sex with you. But we need to find a balance, or else it could ruin everything for me."

"Haha... Just messing with you, Jessica," Lucifer smiled before adding, "Anyway, your husband is a construction and real estate businessman, and he must have properties everywhere in this city, right?"

"Yes, there are many properties that he has under his name and also some that are given to him to sell by the clients." Jessica nodded before asking, "Why do you ask?"

Lucifer thought for a moment, remembering that he needed a private place to call his own, somewhere where he could live with all of his women without any hassle. He didn't want to travel too often to each girl's home just for sex or to have private moments with them, which is why he was considering buying his own place.

So he spoke, "You see, I am looking to buy a big house around the city area, maybe on the outskirts of the city. There must be something suitable on the market right now, isn't there? If you know of any, give me the location details so that I can visit them to check out the condition myself."

"I am not sure of that at the moment, but there must be a place like that on sale. Though I have to ask my husband about it since he is the one who takes care of the company's business matters." Jessica replied.

"Right. Then why don't we go there now? I am free now and can go with you to the company's office." Lucifer said.

Jessica couldn't help but let a giggle slip out, "It's better to do that later on, Lucifer. It might look weird if we just show up at the office together today."

"No. That is the main reason. We will go to your husband's company, and that will take care of the reason we both came here—to the police station. We should tell him upfront about why and how we were called by the police." He said.

Jessica's brow furrowed, and she asked, "What do you mean, Lucifer?"

"There were many people who saw us here. If someone who knows your husband also saw us together, you do know what the news and gossip will be. And to make it clear, telling him half-truths about everything would be the best course of action in our situation."

"Oh..." Jessica was a bit shocked at first and then said, "Well, that sounds good, I guess."

"See? You understand the logic behind my words. So let's get to the company, shall we?" Saying that, he turned and walked to his car, with Jessica following his action and going inside her own car.
