At this moment, Lucas' aura suddenly became sharp and intimidating, his piercing eyes holding a cold, ghostly light as he looked at the butler as if he were a dead man.

The butler felt an overwhelming pressure descend upon him. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and quickly looked at Aveline.

"Mrs. Tudor, I sincerely apologize. I was too hasty and offended you. Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time."

He bowed deeply, his attitude now extremely respectful, a stark contrast to his earlier domineering demeanor.

Lucas, however, didn't let Aveline speak. His tone remained cold, Do you think just a few words can earn my wife's forgiveness? Do you deserve it?"

The butler was taken aback and asked, "Mr. Tudor, what do you want me to do?"

Lucas replied, "If you have to ask how to apologize, it shows you have no sincerity. Since the butler from the Thompson family acts like this, doesn't it mean that everyone in the Thompson family behaves the sa Hearing this, the butler's legs trembled, and he hurriedly said, "No, no, it's all my fault, it has nothing to do with the Thompson family. Mr. Tudor, I know I was wrong. Please, Mrs. Tudor... I truly

understand now."

The butler couldn't afford to let Lucas direct his anger towards the Thompson family!

He would be ruined if that happened!

So, he had to resolve this matter immediately!

He looked at Aveline and directly knelt down, "Mrs. Tudor, I know I was wrong. You can punish me however you see fit, but please forgive me this once.

Seeing this, everyone around was shocked.

"What's going on? Didn't they say that this woman refused to divorce Mr. Lucas?

"Mr. Lucas is defending her like this. It seems the rumors are false!": owner of this content.

"Am I the only one who feels sorry for Mr. Lucas' childhood friend?"

Avelinie was speechless.

The onlookers watched the scene unfold. The butler was

from the Thompson family, and despite the commotion, no one from the Thompson family had come forward. It was clear Lucas had no intention of letting the butler off. Aveline watched this, feeling a subtle stir of emotions within her.

He stood in front of her, his broad back like a mountain shielding her from the wind and rain.

How could she not feel a stir of emotions?

But she also felt that this support had come a bit too late.

She lowered her gaze slightly and remained silent.

"Mr. Tudor."

At that moment, Judy's voice came from the stairs. She descended, her face showing

a hint of guilt. “I sincerely apologize. It was my oversight. He has been dismissed and will no longer appear in front of you and Mrs. Tudor. Can the banquet continue The butler's face turned even paler.

Lucas' cold gaze fell on Judy's face. "You treasure those earrings?"

Judy was stunned, then nodded. "Yes, they are my mother's keepsake."

"Hah!"

Lucas sneered without showing an ounce of respect. "For something

so precious, you carelessly misplaced them. It seems you don't respect your mother that much after all."

The smile on Judy's face suddenly faded.

Lucas no longer looked at her. Instead, he took Aveline's hand. "Are you tired?"

Aveline's fingertips trembled. "A bit."

Lucas said, "Then I'll take you home."

With that, he turned and walked toward the door with her.

He had shown no respect to the Thompson family.

He was behaving arrogantly and completely audaciously!

Everyone watching felt that Lucas was being too brazen!

The Tudor family might be the wealthiest in Cloudflare City, but this was Larbor City!

A cold glint flashed in Judy's eyes. She glanced at the butler beside her and said coldly, "Useless, why are you still standing here? Get lost!"
