The lighting in the private room was dim. Aveline leaned forward. slightly, getting a closer look. She saw Lucas sitting on the sofa, leaning back slightly, with Sophia beside him, using a tissue to wipe. his forehea They seemed very intimate.

Aveline squinted her eyes and saw Sophia stand up. She seemed unsteady on her feet, staggered a couple of times, and fell directly

onto Lucas.

"Want to record a video?"

Suddenly, a teasing voice came from beside her.

Aveline turned her head sharply and saw Russell mimicking her posture, leaning forward and squinting to look inside.

He was taller than her, but in this position, their heights were

almost the same.

When she turned her head, she almost bumped into his face!

Startled, Aveline quickly pushed him away. "No, no need."

Russell straightened up slowly, looking at her flustered expression, and chuckled, "Without a video, how will you keep evidence?"

Aveline had already calmed down by now.

She smiled and walked over to open the door of the private room.

Inside, there were only Lucas and Sophia.

As Sophia fell into his arms, he pushed her away immediately.

"Be careful," he said in a low voice.

Sophia had just steadied herself when the door opened.

Aveline walked in, holding her phone up, "Hey? Why did you stop?"

Seeing her, Lucas' eyes darkened. His gaze swept past her to Russell, who had followed her in, and his expression became cold and oppressive.

Sophia saw her holding the phone and immediately walked over," Miss Young, what are you doing?

Aveline blinked. "Naturally, I'm recording evidence of Lucas' infidelity. That way, when we divorce, I can get a large sum of money!"

She would be instantly rich!

Sophia's face darkened. She reached out to grab Aveline's phone, but Aveline dodged.

Sophia's eyes flashed, and she staggered before falling directly to the floor!

"Sophia!"

Lucas exclaimed in surprise and immediately went over to help her. "Are you okay?"

Sophia's face had turned pale. "My leg hurts...": owner of this content.

Lucas supported her and helped her sit on the sofa, then turned to Aveline with a colder gaze.

Aveline hadn't expected things to turn out this way and immediately said, "Good thing I recorded a video. Let me tell you, I didn't touch her; she fell on her own!" Sophia softly said, "It's true, I was careless. Lucas, I didn't want her to have anything that could harm you, so I hurried to grab her phone. I'm sorry, it's all my fault."

As she ..nished speaking, Lucas' expression became even darker

and more unpleasant.

Russell commented coolly, "Such a good actress."

Aveline looked at him, "You know how to spot a good one?"

Russell replied, "A little."

Aveline nodded. "Judging by how you say it, you must be an expert. So tell me, what should I do in this situation?"

Russell rubbed his chin and said, "In a situation like this, no method will work. It all depends on who he favors. If he supports you, it won't matter even if you pushed her. But if he doesn't, even if you didn't push her and have a video as proof, he'd still blame you for avoiding her."

Aveline gave him a thumbs up. "You're an expert!"

She smiled cheerfully, but she was already feeling bitter inside.

Would Lucas side with her?

The answer was definitely no.

He had already used her as a shield to protect Sophia, so how could he possibly side with her?
