Aveline said, "Russ, it's just some snacks. They might help when you don't have much of an appetite."These things didn't cost her much money.Russell gave a helpless smile. With his face now bruised, his handsome yet mischievous features looked quite pitiful.Aveline sat by the bed and asked, "Are your injuries serious?"Russell coughed and replied, "It's nothing major, just a few broken bones."Aveline's breath caught, feeling even more guilty. "I'm sorry...""Come on, anyone who saw you fainting on the street would have helped. I did it willingly, so don't feel bad. If you really feel uncomfortable about it, why not cook for me while I'm in the hospital? How about that?"He smiled at her, his tone light and his eyes forgiving.Aveline nodded. "No problem, I'll make sure to feed you well!"Russell's lips twitched.Aveline realized her words were off and rubbed her nose, saying, "I'll make nourishing meals to help your bones heal quickly.""Alright."Russell agreed.Looking at her pal

Aveline bought chicken, corn, and some other vegetables, and then started preparing nourishing meal as soon as she got back. Sitting on the sofa, she took out her phone and messaged Selena.Aveline texted, "I sold my house, so I’m temporarily staying at your place."Selena replied, "No problem, you can stay there as long as you need!"Aveline asked, "When are you coming back?"Selena responded, "It might be a while. The scenery here in Stonefall City is pretty nice. I’ll bring you a gift when I return."Aveline texted back, "Alright, I’ll wait for you."...Just as she exited the chat with Selena, Lucas called. She answered with a cold tone, "Hello?"Lucas asked, "When are you coming back?"Aveline replied, "Back where?"Lucas said, "The Bluewater Bay Villa. I’ve been staying here."Aveline retorted, "What does that have to do with me?"Lucas fell silent.His breathing grew heavier, and even through the phone, she could sense his shifting emotions."Aveline, we’re still married.""Ha!

Russell said, "You're still young. It would be better for you to find a job and stay busy. Sitting idle every day will only lead to mental fatigue."Aveline replied, "Hmm, I'll consider it."Russell then offered directly, "How about joining my company? I happen to be short of staff lately."Aveline laughed. "Russ, don't joke around. I'm not capable enough. What if I mess up your work?"He looked at her intently and said, "It's okay, even if you cause a huge problem, I'll back you up."Aveline hesitated, about to say something, when the door to the ward opened again, and Rina walked in."Why are you here again?"Rina's face initially had a smile, but seeing Aveline, it vanished instantly. Her eyes filled with caution, she quickly walked over and said, "Since you're married, you shouldn't always come here. Russ is still single; others would misunderstand your relationship with him.""Rina!"Russell didn't expect her to come, but he quickly realized that someone must have called her over.

Aveline's fingers trembled slightly, a hint of fear surfacing within her.Lucas' hand landed on her clothes, ready to tear them apart with a little force."If you do something crazy here, I will hate you for the rest of my life!" Aveline's voice rang out, filled with shame and anger.Lucas paused, feeling the delicate fabric in his hand. It would tear easily if he applied just a bit more force. However, seeing the tears welling up in her eyes, he suddenly felt annoyed.They were husband and wife! What was wrong with being intimate? Why was she so reluctant? He had always made sure she would feel good!Lucas took out a cigarette, placed it between his lips, and reached for his lighter. As he was about to light it, he noticed her trembling eyelashes and smirked. "Light it for me."He shoved the lighter into her hand, his eyes half-closed with a playful glint.Aveline wanted to throw the lighter at his face, but since he had finally calmed down, she had to make the most of it. She held

Lucas looked at his empty hand and suddenly asked, "Why did you let go?""What?" Aveline thought she misheard him."Holding hands," Lucas clarified.Aveline was speechless! She said, "You're the heir of the Tudor family, the president of DK Group. Can you stop doing such childish things?"Lucas finally focused on her face. His dark eyes and cold, handsome face made it impossible to guess what he was thinking.Aveline frowned, unwilling to guess, and turned to leave. She didn’t have to stay at the hospital; Russell could eat on his own."Come with me to a place," Lucas suddenly said.Aveline refused without hesitation. "No."Lucas stared at her intensely. "If you don't go, I'll come find you tonight."Aveline stopped in her tracks, glaring at him. "Where?"Lucas' lips curved into a slight smile as he walked toward a car parked by the roadside.Aveline watched his tall, straight back, wishing her gaze could bore holes into it.Once in the car, Aveline sat as far from him as possible, p
