Chapter 211

The orphanage was filled with children who had been abandoned by their parents. When Aveline was a child back then, she couldn't help but wonder if she had been abandoned too. Why didn’t her parents want her after giving birth to her? So, for all these years, she had never thought about looking for her biological parents.Russell, noticing her distracted expression, said, "Maybe something happened to your family, or perhaps you were taken away. It's all possible. Do you want to find them, Aveline?""I haven't decided yet," Aveline replied.Russell said, "Take your time to think it over. When you're ready, let me know. I can help you."Aveline looked at him, feeling touched. "Russ, why are you so good to me?"Russell saw the familiar look of admiration in her eyes, and it made his heart ache. He choked up a bit and said, "Because I'm your friend, remember? Haha."Aveline smiled slightly. "I'll think about it.""Good."Russell didn't want to continue the topic. Did he really appear li

Aaron reached up to rub his arm and said, "I overheard Selena talking to Aveline on the phone. She sounds pretty certain. What did you do to make her want to leave Cloudflare City?"But he received no answer; Lucas hung up on him abruptly."What a temper!" Aaron commented, setting his phone aside and leaning back against the headboard."Selena!" He called out loudly, immediately feeling dizzy and unwell.A moment later, Selena pushed the door open and poked her head in. "What is it?"Aaron, half-squinting, said, "Add me to your messenger contact. I don't want to keep shouting; it gives me a headache."Selena replied, "You could just call me."Aaron said, "That's too much trouble."Selena was speechless.She gave him a perplexed look, unable to understand why he found calling her more troublesome than opening WhatsApp to send a message.What had gotten into him this time?But, remembering that she only had a week left with him, she decided not to argue. She walked in and added him as a

Selena glanced down too, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest.Oh no!She was about to be caught!But when she looked down, she saw that her phone had broken upon impact!The screen was black!For a moment, she didn't know how to react.Aaron frowned. "Why are you so nervous?"Selena looked at him with a blank expression. "I wasn’t nervous. But you, why did you sneak up behind me? Were you trying to ambush me?"Aaron fell silent.He gave her an exasperated look and said, "I just came to see if you were done. I'm starving."Selena maintained her blank expression. "You could just send me a message! We just added each other on WhatsApp. If you were to fall because you came over, would you blame it on me?"Aaron was speechless, thinking, “What's gotten into this woman?”He rubbed his temples. "I don't have the energy to argue with you."Then he left the kitchen.Watching him enter the dining room and sit down, Selena let out a deep breath.Phew!That was a close call!She thought he'd

Lucas gritted his teeth in anger, now wanting nothing more than to grab Aveline and strangle her! The Maple Garden house was a meticulously chosen gift from him. How dare she sell it?The pressure in the room intensified, and the coldness in the air seemed to freeze.Russell frowned, seeing the murderous look in Lucas' eyes. He suddenly felt worried for Aveline. This madman might actually try to kill her. He needed to warn her to get out of town quickly.Lucas' cold gaze fell on Russell's face, his voice icy. "Mr. Skyler, you don't need this house. Name your price, I'll buy it."Russell laughed as if he had heard a hilarious joke. "Lucas, did I hear you right? You want to buy this house back? Are you that desperate to throw your money away?"Lucas' expression remained haughty and detached. "I'll have someone contact you. Within three days, I expect you to move out."With that, he turned and left, heading straight for Aveline's current residence.Russell snorted. The house was in his h

Aveline was thoroughly annoyed.She didn't understand.Why was he calling her?What was there to say?His attitude had been clear—he was firmly on Sophia's side. So why was he still bothering her?Did he really want to be a complete jerk?But she had no patience to play his games!Aveline simply turned off her phone and went to sleep.She thought she would have trouble sleeping.But with her mind occupied with other things, she hardly thought of Lucas.She had a restful night.In Cloudflare City.At the Tudor mansion.Lucas listened to the cold, unyielding tone of the phone's automated message, and in a fit of rage, smashed his phone!He was enveloped in an aura of extreme coldness.Aveline had actually run away!She had a lot of nerve!Did she think this would free her from everything?What wishful thinking!Lucas took a moment to calm himself, then sent a message to Maria. “Find out where Aveline is now.”Maria replied, “Tomorrow.

Aveline smiled and said, "You've changed a lot too. If you hadn't called out to me, I wouldn't have recognized you."Aveline and Russell grew up together in the orphanage and were close friends as kids. But as they got older, things changed and they drifted apart. After Aveline left for college, she lost touch with her old friends from the orphanage.Zachary asked, "Are you back to see us?""Yes, I am." Aveline nodded.Originally, she had wanted to take her time before going back, but it seemed that wasn’t going to happen now.Zachary's eyes lit up. "That's great! Aveline, Madam Hilda will be so happy to see you. She's been talking about you all these years."Aveline smiled. "I'm going to buy a few things. Do you want to come with me?""Sure," Zachary agreed.During their conversation, Aveline learned that Zachary had just graduated and hadn't found a job yet. He had returned to Arthur Town hoping to find a stable job, which would also allow him to help out at the orphanage regularly.

Aveline lowered her gaze slightly, staying silent. She had intended to give Hilda some money, but seeing her current attitude, she suddenly lost interest. Perhaps, when Hilda founded the orphanage, she genuinely cared for the children, and Aveline even remembered feeling some warmth there as a child. But over time, entangled interests corrupted everything, and nothing remained pure. Aveline pulled out a chair and sat down directly.Hilda glared at her with disapproval. Zachary quickly interjected, "Madam Hilda, Aveline doesn't have a job. How could she have that much money?"Hilda scoffed disdainfully. "You've been in Cloudflare City for so many years and still don't have a job? Aveline, do you regret not listening to me back then? If you had followed my advice, you'd be a wealthy lady by now!"Zachary shot Aveline an embarrassed glance, swiftly changing the subject. "Madam Hilda, what about the other children? Are they all in school?"Hilda responded coldly, glancing at him. "Have

Juliet said, "Why would she come back? Doesn't she hold a grudge over what happened back then?"Hilda replied, "I didn't expect her to come back either, Juliet. Now is not the time to dwell on that. What if she finds out something?"Juliet chuckled. "She won't. She has no idea. But to prevent any mishaps, you can finish what you didn't complete back then."Hilda's eyes brightened. "Alright, I understand!"Then she asked, "Juliet, when are you coming back? It's been so long since you visited me."Juliet's tone cooled. "Madam Hilda, I have some matters to attend to here. I'll send you ten thousand dollars later so you can buy something nice.""Alright, Juliet, you’re always so considerate, unlike Aveline, who came back with a bunch of useless stuff. Who needs that?"After hanging up, Hilda's eyes gleamed as she scrolled through her phone until she found a number and dialed it."Hello? Mr. Portal? Do you remember Aveline Young?"...Outside the orphanage, Zachary said, "Aveline, don't tak

Aveline thought about it and decided that once she learned about her biological parents, she would leave Arthur Town immediately. She agreed, "Okay."Hilda sneered. "That's more like it."With that, she hung up the phone. Aveline set her phone aside and lay down to sleep.In the evening, at Celestial Heights, Aveline arrived to see Hilda anxiously waiting at the entrance. She walked over. "Madam Hilda."Seeing her approach, Hilda seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and grasped Aveline's hand. "Why are you so late? Do you not want to know about that item you had with you back then?"Aveline pulled her hand away. "Let's go inside first.""Yes, yes, let's go in. I’ve already booked a private room. I've wanted to try the food here for ages, but with so many children to look after, none of you ever made enough money to treat me."Hilda chattered non-stop as they entered the club. Once inside, she marveled at everything, acting as if she had never seen such luxury before. Aveline remained

Hilda continued to belittle Aveline while greedily eating the meal that Aveline was paying for. Aveline found it exasperating.Finally, after Hilda had eaten her fill, she burped and stood up, saying, "I'm going to the restroom."Aveline put down her utensils, intending to ask her about the matter once she returned. However, half an hour passed, and Hilda had not returned. Aveline's brow furrowed, and she took out her phone to call Hilda. No one answered.Aveline's expression grew cold.Just then, the door to the private room was abruptly pushed open, and a young man with a broad, menacing face walked in. He wore a leather jacket and had an insolent demeanor. His eyes lit up upon seeing Aveline."It's been years, and you’ve become even more beautiful!" he exclaimed.Aveline immediately stood up, warily eyeing the newcomer.It was Mike Portal.Mike, the son of Arthur Town's deputy mayor, was infamous for his rampant behavior and terrible reputation.
