the same time, the results of Sin's investigation came through.

Lucas opened his phone and sasteral photos. The pictures showed reline walking side by side with Russell, sitting together at a breakfast spot, and leaving the place together. The atmosphere in the car grew tense, and Lucas's expression

umed icy cold. His dark eyes watched the approaching figures, who were chatting and laughing

Instead of resting at the Tudor residence during the night, she was our bading breacast with Russell?

They weren't even divorced yet, and she was already eager to find

Meanwide. Brian looked at the other photos he had not sent to

Luces. These images showed Aveline being followed, her hair being grabbed as she was dragged into a dark alley, and Russell suddenly appearing to rescue her.

Bulan chose not to send these to Luces

in his point of view, it was unnecessary.

Avelline was never a good match for Lucas.

They were from different worlds.

At was better for them to divorce sooner rather than later.

Sophia had waited for Lucas for so long, her waiting shouldn't be in

Without any expression, Brian deleted the additional photos.

"Thank you for sending me back home," Aveline said with a slight smile to Russell.

"Do you want me to walk you up? The security around here isn't great. I suggest you consider moving to a safer place," Russell replied.

Aveline shook her head. "No need. The police are looking for him now, so he probably won't dare come back. I'm moving soon anyway, and I'll invite you over to my new place." Russell smiled, a mischievous glint in his handsome face. "Am I your first guest?"

Aveline nodded. "Yes."

Russell said, "It's an honor."

Aveline extended her hand. "Do you have a pen? Give me your phone number. I'll get a new phone and call you."

Her phone had been smashed.

Aveline thought she needed to repay this meal.

Russell replied, "I don't have one on me,

Just as she was about to say more, she sensed something and turned to see Lucas' tall figure standing in the shadows not far away. She froze, her heart sinking.

Russell noticed Lucas as well and said, "It looks like your husband still cares about you. I'll be on my way."

Aveline nodded. "Alright, take care."

Russell nodded and turned to leave.

Aveline turned her gaze from Russell to Lucas. The thought of how

If it weren't for Russell, she might have been dead by now.

She took a deep breath and walked over, asking, "What are you doing here?"

Lucas looked at her darkly. "Why didn't you answer my calls? Did I interrupt your date?"

Aveline's brows furrowed immediately. "Lucas, what are you talking about?"

Was he crazy? Saying such things?

He went to see Sophia in the middle of the night, and she didn't say anything about it. Now he had the nerve to accuse her?

He was utterly shameless.

"Aveline, from the way you've been acting, I thought you still cared about me. But I see I was wrong. The real reason you're so eager to divorce is because of him, isn't it?" Lucas said in a serious tone, finding h
