Sophia was eager to prove herself. After securing this piece of land, she poured all her efforts and funds into the project. Once the construction was complete and the nearby subway station was operational, the project would yield immense profits for her. This would also solidify her position within the Winter family.As Sasha listened to Aveline's plan, her eyes lit up. "You really are something, Mrs. Tudor."Aveline smiled faintly. "I don't start trouble, but if someone crosses me, I make sure they regret it."Sasha nodded. "With you being so open to me, I won't disappoint you. Leave these parts to me," she said, pointing to specific items in the documents.Aveline nodded. "Alright."In the private room next door, Aaron walked in and looked at Lucas. "Guess who I saw?"Lucas, flipping through some documents, replied coldly, "Who?"Aaron grinned. "Come on, take a guess.""Shut up if you're not going to say," Lucas retorted.Aaron clicked his tongue. "You’re no fun. I saw Aveline. She

"Ah!" Aveline screamed and turned to run. Even though she had a knife, she didn't dare to confront the man directly. What if he took the knife and used it against her?She ran as fast as she could, shouting for help. Her cries echoed through the empty underground parking lot. The sound of footsteps behind her felt like they were pounding on her heart. Terror gripped her, making her feel like her heart was about to burst out of her chest. She clutched the knife tightly, trembling all over.Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the side, tackling the man chasing her. Both of them fell to the ground."Aveline, run!" a frantic voice called out behind her.She turned and saw Sidney wrestling with the man. Sidney's face quickly bore signs of the struggle. The assailant pulled out a knife and aimed it at Sidney's chest."No!" Aveline cried out, rushing over to help. Sidney blocked the attack with his arm, blood flowing from the wound. The intense pain drained the color from his face.Aveline s

Sidney commented, "It looks really good."He took a bite, and his eyes lit up. "Delicious!"Aveline smiled slightly. "Everyone who’s tried my cooking says that."She wasn't trying to boast, but the truth was, everyone who tasted her food had praised it.Sidney said, "With your cooking skills, you could open a restaurant. It would be a hit."Aveline nodded. "Sure, maybe when I retire, I'll open a small restaurant. I'll open it whenever I feel like it and close it whenever I don't. Just for fun."Sidney laughed.They ate quietly, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant. However, with his injured right hand, Sidney had some trouble eating and had to take his time.Aveline served him a bowl of soup and placed it by his side. "Try this.""Okay," Sidney agreed.But he didn't hold the bowl securely, and it spilled all over his clothes and pants!Aveline was startled. "Did you get burned?"Sidney said, "No, I'm fine, but I might need to use your bathroom."Aveline nodded. "Go ahead, make sure y

Sidney grabbed her arm, his eyes wary as he faced Lucas. "Mr. Tudor, there's nothing going on between Aveline and me. Don't hurt her!"He stood protectively, but his face was pale, and he occasionally coughed, clutching his stomach where Lucas had kicked him. Aveline's concern grew as she looked at Sidney. She couldn't let him stay here any longer. She turned and went to the bathroom to retrieve his half-dried clothes."Sidney, put on your clothes and leave now!" she urged, standing between Sidney and Lucas, facing Sidney, and frantically signaling for him to leave. If he stayed, it would only get worse for everyone. Lucas' anger would spell trouble for them both.Sidney saw the urgency in her eyes, hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Alright."He quickly dressed and said, "I'll send you a message in an hour. If you don't reply, I'll call the police."Aveline responded, "I'll be fine. Just go!"Lucas' face was growing darker by the second. If this dragged on, things could turn d

She tried to get up, but the pain coursing through her body forced her back onto the bed. Her face turned ghostly pale. Bastard!Thinking about what Lucas had done made Aveline's eyes well up with tears, but she fought them back, knowing that crying wouldn't help.She had brought this upon herself. She should never have agreed to his demands! Pretending to play along had led her to this. She would be better off dead, ending it all!Aveline pulled the blanket over herself, trying to calm down. After some time, she finally stabilized her emotions and got up, dragging her sore legs to wash up.When she emerged, she saw Lucas sitting on the sofa in the living room, exuding a cold aura. Without glancing at him, she walked straight past.Lucas withdrew his gaze and spoke into the phone. "Extract the footage from Aveline's car's dashcam."She mentioned being attacked last night. Since the underground parking lot had no surveillance, he had no idea what really happened."Yes," Desmond replied
