Aveline smiled slightly at him. "It's nothing. I just wanted to see if you needed to go to the hospital."

Russell replied, "No need."

Aveline picked up her fork again. "Then let's eat first."

She started eating, although she didn't have much of an appetite. There were still many things she needed to deal with.

Russell's charming eyes looked deeply at her, but he didn't say much more.

After the meal, Aveline went to pay the bill, only to be told it had already been paid.

She paused and looked at Russell. "Russ, didn't we agree that I would treat you?"

Russell lazily said, "When you're out with me, there's no way I'd let you pay."

Aveline blinked. "So, can I invite you to meals often in the future?"Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Russell's mouth twitched slightly. "Sure."

Aveline smiled, then sat back down.

Russell waved his phone at her. "The video has been sent to your email."

Aveline immediately opened it, and when she saw the girl who bumped into her tampering with the food, her

expression turned serious.

Someone had intentionally pooned the food to frame her?

Russell said, "You have the evidence now, but I advise you to either report it to the police or give it to Lucas. Don't investigate it yourself The people involved were not somed

After that, Avelipe went straight to the hospital even though

she didn't want to.

She didn't want to see Lucas at all right now.

Every time she saw him, she couldn't help but think of the scene where he promised Sophia that he would marry her.

Aveline suppressed the heaviness in her heart and stepped directly into the elevator.

However, when the elevator doors opened, she saw two bodyguards standing not far away. Seeing her, they immediately approached and said, "Please go back." Aveline's clear eyes turned cold, "I need to see Lucas, go tell him."

The bodyguard said, "Mr. Tudor has specifically instructed us not to let you see him."

Aveline's heart ached sharply, and she said, "Tell him I'm here to explain the poisoning incident. I have evidence to prove that I didn't poison him."

The bodyguard's attitude hardened. "Mr. Tudor said no."

Aveline fell silent.

Frustrated, she pulled out her phone and dialed Lucas' number, but he hung up immediately.

That jerk!

What was he thinking?

Why wouldn't he see her?

Now that she had arid

still couldn't even see him? What was the point of getting the evidence then?

Aveline stubbornly kept calling, until finally, Lucas turned off his phone.

Aveline felt like smashing her phone.

It was infuriating!

How could he do this?

Tears of anger started to well up in Aveline's eyes, just as the elevator doors opened and Sharon walked out.
