Lucas slid into the driver's seat, started the car, and sped away like a bolt of lightning. Aveline's eyelashes fluttered as she saw the luxury car zoom past her.
Aveline thought Lucas must be crazy to drive so fast in the city.
When she got home and stepped out of the car, she walked a short distance before hearing a voice
behind her.
"Miss, wait a moment!"
Aveline turned around, puzzled, and saw the ride-hailing driver approaching with something in his hand. He was tall and wore a mask that covered the lower half of his face. However, Aveline could tell he was smiling through his eyes.
"Miss, is this yours?" he asked.
Aveline looked and saw it was her keychain.
Indeed, it was hers.
"Thank you," Aveline said as she took the keychain from him.
The driver waved it off. "No problem. Just leave a five-star rating.”
"Sure." Aveline nodded, then turned and went inside.
After all the fuss, she wasn't hungry anymore. She pulled out her phone and saw a message from
Russell.
"The breakfast was great. Did Lucas blow up in anger?"
Aveline couldn't help but smile and replied, "No worries. As long as you liked it.”
Russell texted, "You don't need to bring me lunch. Take a good rest."
Avelin replied, "Alright, I'll drop by in the evening."
Russell probably had something to do at noon, which gave her a chance to rest and think about what she should do next. She couldn't sit idle for long. Although she had enough money to live comfortably for the rest of her life, living like that would make. life lose its meaning. She wanted to make more money! Browsing through job listings, Aveline didn't find anything suitable, so she decided to call Selena.
Selena was already up and about, though she had to avoid strenuous activities because her shoulder still hurt.
"What kind of job are you looking for?" Selena asked, puzzled.
"I'm not really sure. I looked through some job listings, but none of them seemed right," Aveline replied.
Selena said, "Oh, didn't the CEO of Brighton Enterprises appreciate you a lot before? Why don't you try sending them your resume?"
Aveline paused for a moment. "Alright, I'll consider it."
Brighton Enterprises could be a good option. They knew her capabilities, so it shouldn't be too difficult.
"Miss Quin, it's time to change your dressing," a voice said in the background.
Aveline immediately straightened up. "Selena, what happened to you?"
Selena sighed, not expecting the nurse to come at this moment. "Don't worry, I just got a little hurt. I'm at the hospital for a dressing change. I'll be fine in a couple of days."
Aveline spoke in a serious tone, "Send me your location. I'm coming to see you. Why didn't you tell me you were hurt?"
Selena was startled and quickly replied, "Really, there's no need. I'm almost better. Aren't you busy cooking for Mr. Skyler? If you come to see me, you won't be able to cook for him." Aveline frowned, feeling that Selena was definitely hiding something from her.
Selena chuckled. "I'm really fine. Don't make a fuss, okay?": owner of this content.
Aveline sighed. "Selena, if something's wrong, you have to tell me. Don't keep anything from me."
