Lucas' expression remained calm and indifferent as he spoke, "Continue to refine the report. I'll conduct the assessments myself.""Understood." Steve nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Tudor, you have to stay in Arthur Town for a few more days to experience our local culture and hospitality."At that moment, the door to the private room opened, and Larry entered with a grave expression, whispering something into Steve's ear. Steve's expression shifted, but with Lucas present, he restrained himself from reacting too strongly. Just as he was about to give instructions, the door suddenly burst open, and someone stumbled inside!Five minutes earlier, in the neighboring private room.Mike advanced towards Aveline a step at a time, his eyes filled with lust as he eyed her tightly buttoned shirt, itching to tear it off."Stay away from me! If you lay a finger on me, I'll make sure your life becomes a living hell!" Aveline's face paled as she desperately searched for something to defend herself with.M

“Don’t scream,” a deep, magnetic voice commanded, and Aveline’s struggles ceased abruptly.It was Lucas.Strangely, her fear began to dissipate. She stopped struggling, though her breathing remained rapid, and her body continued to tremble slightly from the residual fear.Lucas released his hand from her mouth, his sharp, handsome features cold in the dim light. “Aveline, did I give you permission to resign? This counts as absenteeism!”Aveline's eyelids fluttered briefly. “Then just dock my pay,” she replied.Lucas’ face twisted in anger. He gripped her neck, forcing her to look directly at him. “Why did you sell the house?”Aveline didn’t like this position.She tried to push him away, but he was too strong. “The house is mine. I can do whatever I want with it. What does it have to do with you?”Her clear, indifferent gaze irritated Lucas even more, igniting a fiery rage within him. He had been trying to contact her, but she blocked him. Now, she wouldn’t even look at him properly

Aveline returned to the hotel, still shaken. Lucas was in Arthur Town! And from the looks of it, he planned to stay for a while. She couldn't remain there if he did.Frowning, she pondered for a moment before dialing Hilda's number. However, Hilda didn't answer, and Aveline's expression darkened. They had repeatedly targeted her—did they really think she was an easy target?She called another number and then headed to take a shower before going to bed.The next morning, Hilda was in high spirits, thinking about the previous night. She was sure Aveline hadn’t escaped this time because Mike had been fixated on her for a while.Hilda planned to check on the children but was interrupted by a knock at the door."Who is it? Coming, coming!"She hurried to the door and opened it to find several police officers standing there.Startled, she asked, "What’s the matter?"The lead officer flashed his badge and said firmly, "We've received reports of your involvement in child trafficking and fo

Lucas ordered coldly, "Tell her to come see me when I return."Desmond replied, "Yes, sir."...As Aveline exited the airport, she immediately spotted a strikingly handsome man with short, purple-gray hair.A smile spread across her face. "Russ."Russell naturally took her luggage and asked, "Are you tired? There’s still some time left. If you're tired, you can rest a bit."Aveline shook her head. "I'm fine. I slept on the plane."Russell opened the car door for her. "Then let's go. We'll get you changed first."Aveline nodded and got into the car.Once they arrived, Russell handed her over to the stylist and waited in the lounge.Sitting in front of the mirror, Aveline said, "I don’t want anything too glamorous, just something simple and elegant will do."The stylist, initially eager to showcase her skills, had to rein in her creativity upon hearing Aveline's request.An hour and a half later, everything was ready.Hearing movement, Russell looked up to see Aveline gracefully descendi

Lucas' gaze swept downward, and he immediately spotted the pair in the self-service area. The girl held a plate, taking small bites, and had accidentally smeared her cheek. The man beside her gently wiped it away with a tissue. The scene was harmonious and beautiful as if they were a couple.A cold glint flashed in Lucas' eyes.His tone grew even colder. "I didn't want to bring someone I'm bound to divorce to avoid being a laughingstock."Wilbert's face darkened. "Can you stop acting like your irresponsible father?"Lucas lowered his gaze slightly and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Wilbert."Without waiting for Wilbert's response, he turned and walked downstairs.Aveline got cream on her dress and asked worriedly, "Russ, do you think this stain will ruin the dress?"Ruining such a delicate and beautiful gown would be a shame!Russell replied, "Let's go over there to clean it up. Don't worry, it's fine."Aveline followed him behind a screen where there were fewer people, ensuring they wouldn't
