"What's the rush? You'll find out soon enough," Lucas replied coolly, his deep, magnetic voice laced with indifference.Sophia's sense of dread intensified. Suddenly, she stood up, saying, "If you two have things to discuss, I’ll just leave."She quickly headed for the door, but before she could reach it, she was met by five or six disheveled men being escorted in by the bodyguards. Each man looked filthier than the last, with some even covered in unsightly warts, making the sight revolting.The bodyguards blocked her path. "Miss Winter, the matter isn’t over yet. You can’t leave."Sophia’s face paled as she eyed the men. "What are you planning to do?"The bodyguards didn’t answer. Instead, they pushed her back into the room and shut the door behind her.Sophia stumbled, losing her balance—her prosthetic leg making it difficult to steady herself—and fell to the ground. Panic spread across her face as she looked up at Lucas, desperately asking, "Lucas, what’s going on? What are you pla

Hearing Melanie's words, Riley’s expression softened slightly. He sighed and said, "Alright, you go ahead and have someone bring Sophia back.""Understood," Melanie replied, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes as she stood up and left the room.Sasha also rose and followed her mother out of the villa. As they stepped into the dark night, Melanie took Sasha’s hand, her face filled with relief. "Sasha, my dear daughter, you’ve finally helped me get rid of this major threat."Sasha smiled faintly. "She brought this on herself. How can it be my fault?"Melanie nodded approvingly and then asked, "But are you sure they won’t trace this back to you?"Sasha shook her head confidently. "Don’t worry, Mom. They won’t find anything. I’ve already sent those people out of the country. Once they’re abroad, there’s no way they can be found."Melanie nodded again, clearly pleased. "Well done. You should also try to get closer to Aveline. It’s clear Lucas is very fond of her. If we maintain a

Lucas watched her, a touch of helplessness flickering across his handsome face. Instead of heading to the guest room, he sat down on the living room sofa, lighting a cigarette. The sharp click of the lighter echoed loudly in the quiet room.Just then, his phone rang. Glancing at the screen, he saw it was his bodyguard calling. "Mr. Tudor, Miss Winter has been taken back by her family.""Alright," Lucas replied indifferently, not giving the matter much thought.His mind was entirely occupied with figuring out how to get Aveline to forgive him and take him back....The next day.News of Sophia being kicked out of the Winter family indeed made the headlines.Aveline lay in bed, reading the news with a blank expression. After a moment, she got up, washed up, and opened her bedroom door. She immediately saw Lucas, wearing an apron, walking out of the kitchen and placing a plate on the dining table."You're up? Perfect timing, breakfast is ready."Aveline walked over, glancing at the simple

Lucas arched a brow slightly, surprised that she had caught up. His pace remained steady, unlike Aveline, who was breathing heavily, her face flushed. His even breathing highlighted the benefits of regular exercise—hiking was hardly a challenge for him.Aveline ignored his gaze and kept moving forward, occasionally glancing around. The higher they climbed, the more varied the scenery became. She pulled out her phone and started capturing the beautiful views she encountered, sending them directly to Selena.“I think we should go hiking together sometime.”Selena called right away, her voice laced with surprise, "Sweetheart, is the world upside down? You’ve never been into outdoor activities, and now you’re hiking?"As Aveline continued upward, she replied, "Yes, I never noticed before, but now I see it. I'll make an effort to get out more."Selena chuckled softly, “That's good to hear. You really do need to get out more. Otherwise, stress will keep piling up when you just focus on worki

"Don't move."Lucas held her tightly. "Aveline, right now, I just want to hold you."Aveline rolled her eyes dramatically, but after hiking all the way up, she didn’t have much energy left to struggle. Her face rested against his chest as she gazed at the scenery beyond the mountain, her breathing gradually calming.She unintentionally became aware of his heartbeat, which was growing faster and louder, as if it might burst from his chest.Aveline’s lashes fluttered slightly. "Lucas, are you having a heart attack?"Lucas tightened his arms around her briefly, then suddenly released her. "Aveline, I want to kiss you."She instantly pushed him away. "Don’t even think about it."Lucas’ narrow eyes locked onto her lips, a clear intent in his gaze.Aveline quickly covered her mouth, looking at him with a wary expression.A faint smile curved Lucas' lips. "Do you really think covering your mouth will stop me? If I want to, you won’t be able to escape."Aveline rolled her eyes again and turned
