Lucas reached out and ripped the tape off her mouth.“Ouch!” Aveline cried out in pain, gasping for breath before saying, “Lucas, I’ve thought it over. I agree with what you asked.”Lucas raised an eyebrow in surprise and asked, “Why did you suddenly agree?”Aveline pursed her lips, about to say something when a voice called out from afar.“Hey!”“Can you stop chatting there?”“The tide is rising!”Aveline's expression froze. “Let's leave here first.”Lucas was already striding towards the shore, carrying her. He had just placed her in the car when Selena rushed over, throwing her arms around her and crying out, “Ave, you scared me to death! I thought I’d never see you again!”Aveline stumbled back slightly, coughing twice. “Cough... don’t do that, I’m fine.”Aaron’s cold voice broke in, “If you keep hugging her like this, you might actually never see her again.”After speaking, he frowned, wondering why he had spoken to her. This woman never understood when people were being kind…Sel

In the car, Aveline gently rubbed her wrists, which had become swollen and painful from being bound for so long. Her face was pale, and her clothes were soaked through.Lucas took out a towel and began wiping her face and neck. Aveline felt a bit uncomfortable and tried to take the towel, saying, "I can do it myself."But Lucas replied, "Didn't you already decide? You should start getting used to this now."Aveline paused, lowering her gaze. "Will this really work?" she asked quietly."I can't promise that," Lucas said, "but there are people who don't want to see us happy. So, let's be even more affectionate."Aveline pressed her lips together, not saying anything more. Lucas gently dried her hair as the car headed directly back to the Tudor mansion.Feeling cold and clammy, Aveline said, "I'm going to take a shower first. We can discuss everything else after.""Alright, go ahead," Lucas replied, then instructed the kitchen to prepare some ginger tea.Although Aveline hadn't been in

Lucas suddenly stood up, his commanding presence enveloping Aveline as he placed his hands on either side of her, trapping her in his arms. His sudden closeness made Aveline tense up immediately, her clear eyes revealing a hint of wariness as she looked at him."What are you doing?" Lucas chuckled softly, his piercing gaze fixed on her as he said in a low voice, "Aveline, when did you become so wicked?"Aveline's lips curved into a cold smile. "I didn't want to be like this, but you all forced me to."She could have lived a simple, carefree life. It was his forceful entry into her world, his refusal to let go, and the pressure and jealousy from others that had turned her into what she was now. She hadn't wanted this either.Aveline lowered her eyes, a trace of sadness appearing in them.Seeing this, Lucas felt an inexplicable discomfort. Noticing her damp hair, he suddenly stood up and left, returning moments later with a hairdryer."Let me dry your hair.”Aveline frowned and refused,

"Damn it! He hung up on me again!" Selena stared angrily at the disconnected call.

"Why not?" Selena asked.Aveline replied, "Lucas and I have reconciled.""What?" Selena raised her voice suddenly as if she had jumped up on the other end. A jumble of noises came through."Ave, you're not joking, are you? This isn't funny at all," Selena said, completely flustered.She had been the harshest critic of Lucas, constantly urging them to divorce. Now Aveline was telling her they had reconciled? Their reconciliation made her feel like a fool!Selena's voice grew more urgent. "Ave, have you forgotten all the hurt you've suffered? Hasn't he hurt you deeply enough? How can you reconcile with him?"Aveline felt terribly sad. She wanted to blurt out the truth, but Lucas was right - the fewer people who knew the truth, the less risk they faced. If someone were to learn something from Selena, wouldn't all her efforts be in vain?She just wanted to return to a normal life. Running away couldn't solve the problem.Aveline closed her eyes for a moment and then said, "This incident m

Lucas' cold gaze fell on her as if trying to see through her phone to Russell. His stare carried a sense of pressure that made Aveline uncomfortable. She shot him an annoyed look. Was she not allowed to take a call?Lucas kept quiet.He gripped his fork as if he were gripping Aveline's neck.Russell's voice came through. "Aveline, what's wrong with Selena? I just contacted her, and she seemed very upset."Aveline's breath caught in her throat. She then said, "I made her angry. I'll make it up to her."Russell acknowledged this, then asked, "And you? How are you?"Aveline paused. "What do you mean?"Russell said, "Are you hurt? Actually, I rushed over there yesterday too, but I was a step too late."He finished with a self-deprecating laugh.Aveline hadn't realized he had gone too. Gratitude flickered in her eyes. "Thank you. I'm fine, not hurt."Russell replied, "Good, that's good."A brief silence fell.As Aveline was considering ending the call, Russell suddenly asked, "Aveline, you

Aaron looked at him. "Don't be so sure. You just haven't realized it yet. By the time you do, you probably won't be able to leave her. You'll be afraid to defy her wishes.”Lucas looked disdainful.Aaron changed the subject, "What do you think about this recent incident?"Lucas said calmly, "She wants to handle it herself."Aaron was surprised, "Can she manage it?""We'll see if she can or not. If she really can't, I'll be there to back her up," Lucas replied.Aaron nodded. "Alright. You two are becoming more and more alike."Lucas glanced at him. "Anything else?"Aaron took out an envelope and pushed it across to Lucas. "Some recent findings. Take a look."Lucas opened the envelope to find several photos of Yvonne with a man. The man wore a hat and mask, obscuring his face. The photos were somewhat blurry but clearly recent. Yvonne had been meeting this man frequently.Who was he?Lucas looked at Aaron. "Have you identified this man?"Aaron said, "He's excellent at evading surveillanc

Aveline changed her shoes and walked in. The man's cold gaze immediately fell on her.She said nothing and went to drink a glass of water.Footsteps approached from behind her.Just as Aveline set down her glass, she felt a grip on her shoulder as Lucas turned her around.His tall figure loomed over her, his eyes studying her intently. He asked in a low voice, "What did you mean by what you said earlier?"Aveline pushed his hand away, moving to a safe distance. She didn't think their current relationship warranted such intimacy.She said coolly, "Going public now doesn't suit my plans."Lucas was displeased by her avoidance, but hearing her words, he raised an eyebrow. "What plans?""That's confidential," Aveline replied.Lucas retorted, "Why should I agree to your terms if you won't give me a reason?"Standing on the stairs, Aveline turned to look at him, her tone calm. "You don't have to agree. But then I don't have to agree to yours either."Her attitude was cold as she headed upsta

Returning to the bedroom, Aveline closed the door and sighed in relief, feeling that Lucas was becoming increasingly strange. However, she didn't dwell on his behavior. She didn't care. Her focus was on planning her next steps.After taking a shower, she lay on the bed with her phone, noting down all the things she needed to do. A while later, she turned off the lights and went to sleep.But in the middle of the night, the bedroom door opened, and Lucas walked into the darkness.Seeing this, Aveline frowned slightly and said, "What are you doing here?"Lucas replied, "This is my bedroom. If I don't come here, where else would I go?"Upon hearing this, Aveline immediately got up. "If you're in this room, I'll go to another."However, he grabbed her wrist. "Aveline, do you know what it means to put on an act? I can't be sure if there are people planted here by that person or if there are hidden cameras. If you just walk out, what if someone sees through us?"In the darkness, Aveline loo
