Aveline suddenly found his words amusing, but the tense atmosphere in the room and her awkward position made it clear that laughing now would only make her a target. She forced herself to suppress the urge, lowering her gaze.Sensing her reaction, Lucas glanced at her. When he noticed the flicker of amusement in her eyes, his foul mood unexpectedly lifted a bit.Interesting...Dealing with these people might have its perks after all. At the very least, it could amuse her. And that, he thought, was worth it.Barbara began coughing violently, her trembling hand pointing at Lucas as if she wanted to scold him, but she was too weak to even speak. All she could do was glare at him with anger.Lucas, seemingly oblivious to her fury, gently took her hand. "Grandma, don't worry. Aveline and I will live well together, and we'll soon give you a great-grandchild to hold."Barbara yanked her hand away and turned her face away from him, clearly enraged.Frederick was equally angered by Lucas' w

Lucas glanced at her and pressed a button for a different floor.Seeing this, Aveline hesitated and asked, "Where are we going now?"In a low, cold voice, Lucas replied, "To get you checked."Aveline's expression immediately darkened. "There's nothing wrong with me, I'm not going."Lucas looked at her calmly. "We're already at the hospital. Do you really think you can avoid this?"Her face grew even more tense.The elevator quickly reached the designated floor, and as the doors opened, Lucas firmly took her hand and led her directly to the doctor's office without giving her a chance to resist.This hospital was under the Tudor family's management, and the doctors of department head rank and above all knew Lucas. Whenever they saw him, they would respectfully address him as Mr. Tudor.He pushed open the door to an office where a doctor, wearing glasses, was in the middle of a consultation with a patient. The sudden intrusion startled the patient.The doctor glanced at Lucas, clearly dis

Lucas looked at Lance with growing impatience. "What's the solution? Hurry up and tell me!"Lance remained silent for a moment before finally replying, "Take it step by step. Keep your distance for now and let her gradually get used to you."Lucas frowned. "Isn't there a faster way?"Lance responded with a mocking tone, "How did you manage before you had a wife? Now that you have one, you can't even wait a single day?""That's right, I can't wait a day," Lucas replied without the slightest hint of embarrassment.Lance was defeated by Lucas' shamelessness. He straightened his face and said, "No, there isn't a faster way."After putting his glasses back on, he added, "Now get out of here and stop holding up my patients."Lucas knew Lance wouldn't lie to him, so despite his displeased expression, he got up and left.Aveline's expression grew colder as she followed him silently. Once they were outside the hospital, she immediately turned and walked in the opposite direction.Lucas didn't s

Selena laughed and said, "Ave, I'm just an ordinary person without big ambitions. Honestly, the only reason I met Aaron is because of you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't even know who he is, let alone have all these interactions. Life is short, so why not enjoy it while we can?"Aveline listened to her words, understanding that no matter how much they resisted, they couldn't stand up to these men. If they wanted to, there were hundreds of ways they could ruin their lives. Instead of struggling in vain, maybe it was better to just go along with it and enjoy the ride.Selena's way of thinking made sense.Aveline said, "As long as you've thought it through, I respect your decision."Selena laughed again. "Ave, why don't we just let loose together? These rich young men will eventually get bored. When that time comes, we'll be wealthy women, free to enjoy life anywhere in the world."Aveline smiled wryly and said, "Selena, you know we're different."Selena sighed. "If you had a personal

The birthday party was held at the Ninth Mansion.Maria and Aveline stepped into the spacious private room, only to find it buzzing with activity. The air was thick with the chatter of Cloudflare City's young elite - scions of powerful families, each face a reminder of influence and wealth. Maria's eyes darted around, acutely aware that in this sea of privilege, she was an unknown.Some recognized Aveline but didn't approach her. They were aware of her identity and also knew about her divorce from Lucas. In their eyes, Aveline was now insignificant.Maria led Aveline to a corner, her eyes gleaming as she looked at the crowd. "Ave, do you know what I see when I look at these people? Flashing dollar signs!"Aveline smiled and said, "Getting them to turn into dollar signs in your pocket won't be so simple."Maria glanced at her. "Why worry? I've got you, don't I? Just show them some of your designs, and they'll be blown away. My studio's phone will be ringing off the hook!"Aveline smile

Just then, a commotion erupted near the entrance.Aveline and Sasha both looked over to see Rina emerging, dressed in a stunning gown. A diamond tiara adorned her head, exuding confidence and beauty, her every gesture radiating the grace of a true heiress. Beside her was Sophia, while following close behind were Aaron and Lucas.Aveline's expression froze.Sasha glanced at her and said, "Rina grew up with Aaron and Lucas, given the close ties between their families. They’ve always looked out for her. As she got older, Rina developed feelings for Aaron and has been chasing him for years. I heard that the Fletcher and Johnson families are planning to arrange a marriage between them."What?Aaron was going to marry Rina?Then what about Selena?Aveline was holding a grape, and upon hearing Sasha’s words, she squeezed it too hard, crushing it instantly.Did Aaron truly have no intention of letting Selena go, nor any plans to call off his engagement?If he were to marry Rina, where did tha

If Lucas reconciled with Aveline, where would that leave Sophia? Sasha’s position in the Winter family would be secure again....Lucas sat down right next to Aveline and asked in a low voice, "What are you looking at?"Aveline responded coolly, "Why are you so interested in everything? Do you live by the ocean or something?"Lucas chuckled softly. "Funny you say that—I actually do have a house by the ocean. When you’ve got some time, I’ll take you there. If you like it, we could spend some time there together."Aveline ignored him. Who wanted to go to the ocean with him? Ridiculous.Undeterred, Lucas continued, "You still haven't answered me. Why were you staring at Aaron?"Aveline glanced at him and said, "I think he's better looking than you."Hearing this, Lucas narrowed his eyes dangerously, clearly not expecting such a response. He reached out and grasped her chin, turning her face toward him as he coldly asked, "When did you go blind?"Aveline pushed his hand away and turned her

The server was visibly thrown off by the unexpected response.Aveline glanced over at Rina, noticing that Sophia was seated beside her. A suspicion began to form in her mind. Without warning, she reached out and took hold of Lucas' hand.Lucas looked at her in surprise, his eyes lighting up for a brief moment. He quickly clasped her hand in return, gripping it a little tighter as if afraid she might pull away.Aveline paused for a second, her brows furrowing slightly, but she didn't pull back. Instead, she continued eating her fruit.The two servers exchanged uncertain looks. They knew they couldn’t afford to offend Rina, but Lucas was even more intimidating. They retreated reluctantly.Rina and Sophia observed the entire interaction. Rina’s expression darkened. "That slut! She’s bold enough to flirt with Lucas in front of everyone. I really underestimated her."Sophia lowered her eyes slightly, adding a hint of sorrow to her voice. "Rina, let it go. Lucas is really into her right now

Jolie stirred, her eyes fluttering open in the dimly lit cabin. The sharp, handsome features of the man before her were so close that she could feel the warmth of his breath. His lips, carrying his familiar scent, gently traced hers, as if torn between waking her and letting her sleep. Her breath hitched, a brief moment of confusion washing over her. Gavin noticed and, in response, pressed a firm kiss to her lips. "Did I wake you?" "You did that on purpose," Jolie replied, her voice soft and husky from sleep. "Mm." Gavin didn’t deny it, his tone unapologetic as he leaned down to kiss her again. Still groggy, Jolie found herself caught off guard, his lips capturing hers with a growing intensity. By the time she realized what was happening, he had deepened the kiss, his tongue teasing and tangling with hers in an intoxicating rhythm. Her breath quickened, and she instinctively pushed against him. Gavin pulled back, only to trail kisses along her cheek and down her neck, his

The night air was cool, a gentle breeze slipping through the car window and lifting the strands of hair framing her face. They fluttered across her vision, briefly distracting her, yet she could still clearly see his eyes. At that moment, the unease and uncertainty stirring in her chest melted away, replaced by an inexplicable sense of calm. It felt as though there was nothing he couldn’t handle. As long as he wanted to. Jolie smiled softly and said, "Alright." When they arrived at the private airstrip, the captain came forward to exchange a few words with Gavin. Standing nearby, Jolie watched and couldn’t resist asking, "How long will you be staying?" Gavin glanced at her. "How long do you want me to stay?" The overly intimate tone of his words, spoken with such casual ease, caught her off guard. Her cheeks flushed immediately—especially since there were others around to hear it. Lowering her gaze shyly, she murmured, "You can stay as long as you want." She turned he

Gavin looked at her, his gaze steady, and replied in a calm voice, "You’ve got the leverage to do it." Oh... Jolie’s heart skipped a beat, her pulse momentarily thrown off rhythm. What was this feeling? It was as if someone was spoiling her, cherishing her unconditionally. Even though it was just a simple conversation, it carried a warmth she couldn’t ignore. For a moment, she realized that what she once thought was affection and care had been nothing but an illusion. A smile unconsciously curved on her lips as her eyes lit up. "Does this mean I can walk around Larbor City like I own the place?" Gavin raised an eyebrow. "Are you a crab?" Jolie burst into laughter, her mood instantly lifted by his quick-witted remark. Her earlier irritation dissipated, replaced by lightheartedness. Whether or not he meant it, the fact that he sided with her made her happy. "I’m full. Should we head out?" she asked, her appetite long gone after everything that had happened earlier.

The girl stared in disbelief, her hands clutching her face. "You hit me?" Jolie blinked innocently at her. "Weren’t you the one insisting I hit you earlier? I just gave you another slap to match your story. You should be used to it by now." "Jolie Quin!" Ian had reached his limit, his voice full of anger as he glared at her. "Apologize to her!" Jolie glanced at him, her expression calm but icy. "Get lost." She had thought he might be reasonable, but clearly, he was blinded by infatuation. She had no patience to deal with him any longer and turned to leave. Before she could take a step, Ian grabbed her arm roughly. "Jolie, you’re not leaving without apologizing! I don’t think I’ve ever wronged you, have I? We used to get along just fine, didn’t we?" "Let go," Jolie said, her brows knitting in disgust. She hated being touched, especially by someone she considered beneath her. Ian tightened his grip, his hand digging into her arm hard enough to cause pain. "Jolie, yo

Jolie was completely baffled, a string of question marks running through her mind. But when the girl suddenly dropped to her knees, it genuinely startled her.She quickly reached out to help her up. "Get up first. We can talk properly."Before Jolie could react, the girl grabbed her hand and slapped herself hard across the face with it.Smack!The crisp sound echoed in the quiet hallway, leaving Jolie frozen in shock."Why did you hit me?" The girl, who had just been crying like an innocent damsel in distress, now clutched her face and loudly accused her. "Ian and I are the real couple! You’re the one coming between us. How could you hit me?"Jolie blinked, completely dumbfounded, as the girl’s voice rang out.A few passersby paused, glancing over to witness the commotion.Meanwhile, Ian, who had been waiting and wondering why his girlfriend hadn’t returned, came looking for her. The scene he walked into—his girlfriend on the ground, crying and accusing Jolie—made him stride forward,

The person in the hallway glanced at her briefly but quickly looked away, as though she were a stranger. Jolie’s hand, lifted halfway to wave, stalled in mid-air.What... was that? Gavin noticed her reaction and asked in a low voice, "What’s wrong?" "Nothing," Jolie replied, shaking her head and brushing it off. The man outside was Ian. Pretending not to know her was probably his way of avoiding unnecessary trouble—after all, they had already "broken up." The door to their private room shut completely, and Gavin hadn’t seen Ian or his group. He turned back to her and asked, "Do you come here often?" "Yeah," Jolie nodded. "I come here a lot with friends." So, this was one of her favorite hidden gems. The fact that she was willing to share it with him felt significant somehow. Gavin caught himself lingering on that thought and was momentarily taken aback by his own reaction. He kept his expression neutral, not letting on what had crossed his mind. The food arrived qui

The reason it wasn’t the same was simple—her plan would fall apart if she got caught.Of course, that wasn’t something she could admit.Jolie simply said, "I just don’t want any unnecessary complications. Since you’ve already arranged the flight, let’s just leave directly."Gavin’s dark eyes fixed on her for a moment, but he didn’t press the issue.It was clear she didn’t want to talk about it any further, so he let it drop.When the elevator doors opened, the two of them walked out together. A car was already waiting at the entrance. Gavin, ever the gentleman, opened the door for her.The car pulled away from Cooper Enterprises, and Gavin asked, "What do you want to eat?"Jolie, busy typing on her phone, replied, "I know a good restaurant."It was a cozy place she loved, one she often visited with her friends."Alright," Gavin replied, pulling out his phone to respond to some emails. With his work condensed into such a tight schedule, he seized every spare moment to handle it.Jolie p

Gavin suddenly recalled Wilfried's words, "That girl doesn’t even like you."Lowering his gaze slightly, Gavin pushed the thought aside without explanation, his expression remaining cool and indifferent as he watched her. After Jolie finished looking through the photos, she turned to him and asked, "Why do you have pictures of all these women?" "My father brought them over," Gavin replied. "Oh." Jolie nodded knowingly and didn’t press further. It was easy enough to figure out—the Cooper family obviously wanted him to consider an arranged marriage, so they sent over these photos for him to choose from. She could understand that. In fact, she even helped him look through them, just in case one of these women turned out to be a good match for him. After all, their relationship wasn’t meant to last forever. When he grew tired of her and she had her fun, they’d part ways, and everything would return to normal. As she neatly organized the photos and placed them back on the ta

It was Jolie’s first time visiting Cooper Enterprises, and she couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about the place.No, to be precise, it was her first time stepping into any corporate office. The Quin family also had company, but she had never visited, nor had Daisy or Terence ever asked her to.The private elevator for the CEO was stunningly opulent, its polished surface gleaming like a mirror, perfectly reflecting their images. Jolie’s heart began to race with an inexplicable excitement.The assistant glanced at her and said with a warm smile, "Miss Quin, there’s no need to be nervous. Mr. Cooper will definitely be delighted to see you."Jolie nodded and replied, "I’m not nervous."The elevator moved swiftly, and as they neared the executive office, Jolie adjusted her cap and mask, pulling them snugly to hide her face as much as possible.Meanwhile, near the adjacent employee elevator, Rosalie was holding a stack of files, ready to head downstairs.She froze the moment she s
