"Mr. Tudor went to Labor City for his business trip."

Aveline responded, "Send me his detailed itinerary."

"Alright, no problem."

Desmond agreed and hung up. Shortly after, he sent Lucas' work schedule to Aveline.

Aveline glanced at it and immediately booked a flight. Without hesitation, she headed straight to the airport.

It only took three hours to fly from Cloudflare City to Labor City.

Once she found Lucas, they could find another lawyer to handle the divorce proceedings and then return, without wasting much time. The two cities were close, with similar climates. After landing, Aveline to This jerk wasn't answering her calls.

Ha!

Did he think he could avoid her by going on a business trip?

Impossible!

Aveline waited for a long time. The sky outside darkened before Lucas' tall figure finally appeared at the entrance.

Her eyelids felt heavy, but when she saw him, she was momentarily. dazed. After blinking to make sure it was him, she stood up and

walked toward him.

"Lucas."

She called his name before even getting close.

Lucas paused and looked over. The moment his eyes landed on her, his gaze darkened.

She had actually come here.

"Mr. Tudor, who is this?" the man next to him asked in confusion.

A helpless yet doting smile appeared on Lucas' handsome and stern face. "My wife," he said directly.

The other man laughed upon hearing this. "It looks like Mrs. Tudor has come to surprise you. I'll leave you two alone then. See you at the dinner later." Lucas nodded slightly. "Take care, Mr. Summer.

H

Aveline stood behind him, listening to their conversation. Her brows. furrowed, and her face was tense with emotion.

Lucas turned his gaze back to her, "Why are you here?"

Aveline, with a blank expression, said, "To surprise you. Let's go. We can still find a lawyer here and file for a divorce. Are you surprised?"

The gentle smile on Lucas' face gradually disappeared. His eyes. fixed on her, and after a moment, he said, "Did you hear what I just told Mr. Summer?"

Aveline nodded. "Yes, but what does that have to do with me?"

He was the one who introduced her that way.

Did he get her consent?

What did he mean by this now?

Lucas laughed in exasperation at her indifferent attitude. "I just told Mr. Summer that you are my wife and agreed to bring you to the dinner tonight. If we go get a divorce now, it will leave a bad

impression on him and could affect this deal."

"Oh."

Aveline remained indifferent. "So what?"

Lucas looked at her steadily. "So, you need to attend the dinner with me. We'll talk about the divorce when we get back."

With that, he walked past her toward the elevator.

Aveline blinked. Did she agree to this?: owner of this content.

"Wait a minute."

She turned and hurried after him. "I didn't agree to attend the

dinner."

The elevator doors opened just in time, and they both stepped in, one after the other.

Lucas said calmly, "I just want to rest now."

Aveline's face darkened.

If she didn't attend the dinner, he wouldn't proceed with the divorce.

What was he thinking?

The atmosphere in the elevator was heavy. Aveline reached out and pressed the button for the 7th floor, where she had booked a room.
