Sidney walked over, holding his phone out to show her. Aveline, who was packing up her things, glanced over in confusion. "What's going on?" Another video had taken over the trending topics. In the video, the middle-aged couple from earlier were crying in front of the camera, and behind them was none other than the hospital owned by the Tudor Group! The middle-aged woman was sobbing hysterically, " "My daughter's arm was broken in a car accident caused by that big shot's wife, and we had no idea!" the middle-aged woman sobbed. "They've kept my daughter locked up in this hospital and won't let us see her! It's been over a month since she last came home. When I tried to visit her, that boss hit me! Can you believe it? Is it so wrong for a mother to want to see her own child?"The middle-aged man, his face full of anger and helplessness, added, "I only saw my daughter because I was sick and went to the hospital. I hadn’t seen her in over a month, and she looked so thin, like a gh
As Aveline unlocked the door, she said, "I don't know yet. I called him, but he didn’t answer. What is certain, though, is that someone is targeting us."Selena followed her inside, frowning. "Aren’t they going after him? What does this have to do with you?"Aveline pressed her lips together slightly. "I have a feeling things aren't as simple as they seem."Selena sighed. "Oh, my dear, you're scaring me. Why does it sound like it’s getting more complicated?"Aveline sighed helplessly. "We still don't know what the other side wants, so we'll just have to take it step by step. But I’ll be fine."At least for now, all the moves seemed aimed at Lucas.Selena took out her phone. "I'll ask Aaron to help investigate and see what’s really going on."Aveline replied, "He and Lucas are like brothers. Don’t you think he’s already involved?""True enough," Selena said, putting down her phone. "I suddenly feel so powerless, like there's nothing I can do to help."Aveline smiled and said, "Just focu
"Alright, I get it," Aveline said, gently patting Selena's hand to reassure her and temporarily abandoning the idea of going live.However, Selena, worried that Aveline might still consider doing a live stream, stuck close to her all evening, refusing to leave her side. It wasn't out of selfishness. Lucas, after all, was a powerful man with resources and influence, and he could easily suppress the situation. A few insults wouldn't bother him much. But Aveline? She had nothing like that to protect her.She couldn't afford to be exposed to the public eye. These netizens could turn vicious on a whim, and Aveline, with her gentle nature, would undoubtedly be deeply hurt by an online mob attack. Selena was worried sick about her!...Meanwhile, at the Tudor Group, the lights burned bright late into the night. The PR manager brought in the emergency response plan, only to hear the sounds of a heated argument coming from the office. Desmond stood at the door, took the documents, and
He was extremely arrogant, his confidence overflowing with an almost unbearable swagger. The expressions on the faces of the shareholders weren't looking good, but despite his audacity, there was nothing they could do.They had initially thought they could persuade him to resign, but it was clear that this approach was not going to work. Now, who could possibly rein him in?Frederick was already paralyzed by a stroke, Yvonne did not involve herself in anything, and Barbara had grown senile. At this point, no one could control Lucas.Mark was initially intimidated by the aura surrounding Lucas but quickly recovered, narrowing his eyes as he stared at him. “Lucas, you're really quite arrogant, aren't you? Do you honestly think there's nothing I can do about you?”Lucas raised a sharp brow slightly. “Oh? What exactly does Mr. Lewis plan to do?”Mark replied in a cold voice, “The Tudor Group needs a qualified and responsible person to lead it, and you are not that person.”Lucas looked a
"When will you divorce her?"In the private room, the girl gazed at the man before her with deep affection.Aveline stood outside the private room with cold hands and feet. Like the girl inside, she stared at the man's handsome, sharp face, as her complexion gradually turned pale.That was her husband, Lucas Tudor.He was mute, working as a server in this club. Today, she got off work early to go home with him but didn't expect to stumble upon this scene.The man who usually wore a server's uniform was now in a tailored suit, his short hair meticulously styled. His expression was noble and cold, with an air of elegance and aloofness she had never seen before.His thin lips parted, his voice low and pleasant. "I'll bring it up to her soon."She shut her eyes abruptly and turned to leave.He could speak.His voice was actually so pleasant.However, she never expected that the first words she would hear him say were about divorce.Aveline was in a daze, thinking she must have mistaken som
Earlier, when she heard his voice, it was mixed with music, making it hard to hear clearly. But now, his deep, magnetic voice came from right above her, so clear that it struck her heart, leaving her breathless with pain.He could speak.However, he hadn't told her about it immediately.In fact, he wanted to divorce her.All of it was true.Why?Why did he want a divorce?Aveline wanted to ask, but she held back.Why should he get to divorce her just because he wanted to?Over the past year, she had done nothing to wrong him. Even if he wanted a divorce, he owed her an explanation!Aveline's heart felt cold, but she craved the warmth of his body, hugging him even tighter."Yes, I heard you talking to someone, but I didn't catch what you said. Lucas, your voice is so nice."She kissed his back."Lu."It was what she called him only in their most intimate moments.Whenever he heard it, he would respond with even more passion.But tonight, Lucas pushed her away."I'm tired."Aveline's fac
Aveline looked at him. "Say something."Lucas responded, "Let's eat first."He gently pushed her away and walked to the dining table, placing the breakfast on it.Aveline's heart sank deeper into despair as she stared at his back, pain evident in her eyes.She had stopped him from saying the word "divorce," but his attitude was clear. He was distancing himself from her, not even offering a false promise.He never used to be like this!In the beginning, he just followed her everywhere, clinging to her. Later, when she decided to take him in, she taught him to read and learn sign language. His gaze on her became more focused.No matter what she did, his eyes were always on her, as if she were his whole world."Lucas, you didn't give me my good morning kiss."Aveline walked over and said, reminding him of the promise they made after they got together.Lucas pushed the milk toward her. "Let's eat first. I have something to tell you later."Aveline clenched her fists. "If I don't eat, will
When Aveline arrived at the office and sat down, a colleague immediately came over and said, "Aveline, have you heard? Our company has been acquired! The person who bought it is Lucas Tudor, Frederick Tudor's third son, who mysteriously went missing."Aveline froze. "What's his name?""Lucas Tudor. I saw his photo, and he's really handsome! They say he disappeared for a year and just recently returned to the Tudor family. As soon as he got back, he started making big changes to the subsidiary companies here. Our company was directly acquired. Oh my, having such a handsome man as a boss—I’d be smiling even in my dreams!"Aveline pulled out her phone and saw the first notification: news about Lucas, a member of the Tudor family who had been missing, returning.In the photo, the man wore a black suit, his short hair neatly parted, his features sharp and handsome, with piercing eyes that carried a cold glint. His entire demeanor exuded noble aloofness.Lucas belonged to the Tudor family, C
