The aroma of grilled meat quickly filled the air, pulling Aveline's attention back to the present. She was genuinely hungry. It was clear that the presence of the men at the next table affected Selena's mood; several times, she seemed on the verge of saying something, only to catch sight of them out of the corner of her eye and sigh in frustration."So annoying," she finally muttered.Aveline suggested, "Just enjoy the meal for now; we can talk about it later.""Alright," Selena replied with a nod.The atmosphere was somewhat awkward, but the meat was delicious, and Aveline ate quite a bit. Meanwhile, the men at the next table were also getting fresh charcoal for their grill.A man carrying a pan of hot coals approached and, just as he was about to place it in their grill, his expression sharpened, and suddenly he hurled the hot coals directly at Lucas!If the burning coals hit Lucas, it would undoubtedly cause serious injury!Everything happened too quickly. Although Lucas reacted

Lucas overheard the conversation, and his steps visibly slowed.Aaron gave Lance a thumbs up and then joined the group heading to the hospital.By the time they arrived, the burn on Lucas' forehead had already formed a small blister. The doctor treated it briefly and said there was nothing serious, and they were free to leave. It wasn't a big deal, but Aveline had insisted on coming to the hospital to make sure.As they exited the hospital, Selena clung to Aveline's arm, hesitating to speak several times.Aveline glanced at her. "If you have something to say, just say it."Selena looked back at the men following them, then tugged Aveline ahead a few steps until they were a good distance away. She finally stopped and whispered closely, "Aveline, are you having second thoughts? Are you thinking of not divorcing him?"Aveline's expression froze for a moment. "I'm not having second thoughts."Selena, however, looked worried. "But you don't look like someone who isn't regretting it. Lucas

Was she wavering? Backing down? Hesitating? It seemed so. When that answer appeared in her mind, Aveline realized that her persistence all along had indeed become a joke.Reflecting on the past, there were moments of pain, but also moments of care. Why had she insisted on divorce so stubbornly? Perhaps it was the repeated lack of trust, the stark contrast between who he was before and who he became after regaining his memory and identity. He was no longer the same man she once loved so deeply. His entanglements with other women, and his desire to repay favors, all while ignoring her role in his life. Those disappointments eventually turned into despair. She didn’t want to hold on anymore, and that was why she sought a divorce. Her heart, once filled with love for him, had gradually dried up like a riverbed cracked with fissures, and every time she thought about it, the pain became unbearable. She just didn’t want to feel that pain any longer. Her thoughts were chaot

Hearing this, Aveline furrowed her brows. "The situation is getting more and more heated. Aren't you going to find a way to cool it down?"Lucas replied, "It's too late to suppress it now. The capital has already gotten involved, and there are people fueling the flames behind the scenes. The attention is only going to increase."Aveline's worry deepened. "Then what should you do?"If things continued like this, Lucas' situation would only become more precarious. It wouldn't just be pressure from the board; the public could turn against him too. If it caught the attention of the higher authorities, there was a real risk of him being blacklisted."Hearing you worry about me, I should be happy," Lucas suddenly shifted the topic, "but why does it make me so sad?"Aveline paused for a moment and then suggested, "Maybe I could do a livestream to clarify things.""No need for you to appear," Lucas replied, "I'll handle everything."His words brought her a strange sense of calm. Still, she s

“Desmond,” Lucas called.“Yes,” Desmond responded immediately.Desmond quickly took out his laptop and projected a video onto the screen behind them. He said, “I’m sure many of you haven’t seen the full video yet?”As his words fell, everyone’s attention turned to the screen. The video showed a hospital corridor, where a middle-aged man and woman stood at the doorway of a patient room, shouting. A young woman approached them, trying to reason with them. Due to the angle, her face was not visible in the footage. However, it was clear that the middle-aged woman attempted to hit the young woman, and only then did Lucas step in. "Here's the full video," Desmond said, pausing the footage at the right moment. "As you can see, Mr. Tudor was just defending the lady, not abusing his power like some people online are saying. If Mr. Tudor had really done something wrong, it'd be a police matter, not a matter of public opinion."After watching the video, the reporters in the room were stunne

"I had to take care of some personal matters," Maria replied as she walked in, giving Sidney a playful glance before winking at Aveline. "Did you miss me?"Aveline, a bit exasperated by Maria's antics, pushed her hand away. "Actually, there are a lot of files that need your attention. Get to work and don’t delay the progress of our studio."Maria sighed dramatically. "Workaholic!"If she'd known it would be like this, she wouldn’t have come back so early! However, she couldn't say too much about what she'd been up to. If Aveline found out, she might get angry. Things between the boss and Aveline seemed to be easing up, and the last thing Maria wanted was to mess it up now and become the eternal villain in their story."Fine, I'll get to work. But feel free to slack off," Maria said with a slight smile before heading to the office. As she passed Sidney, she gave him a meaningful look. Sidney frowned but ignored her.Aveline turned her attention back to the screen and ended the live s

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
