Chapter 213
Selena glanced down too, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest.
Oh no!
She was about to be caught!
But when she looked down, she saw that her phone had broken upon impact!
The screen was black!
For a moment, she didn’t know how to react.
Aaron frowned. “Why are you so nervous?”
Selena looked at him with a blank expression. “I w ‘t nervous. But you, why did
up behind me? Were you trying to ambush me?”
you sneak
Aaron fell silent.
He gave her an exasperated look and said, “I just came to see if you were done. I’m starving.”
Selena maintained her blank expression. “You could just send me a message! We just added each other on WhatsApp. If you were to fall because you came over, would you blame it on me?”
Aaron was speechless, thinking, “What’s gotten into this woman?”
He rubbed his temples. “I don’t have the energy to argue with you.”
Then he left the kitchen.
Watching him enter the dining room and sit down, Selena let out a deep breath.
Phew!
That was a close call!
She thought he’d figured it out!
Looks like she’d need to be more careful next time. She wasn’t done fooling him yet and couldn’t let him discover her secret!
Bending down to pick up her phone, Selena felt a pang of heartache.
Her phone had become a casualty in the process!

Night fell.
Lucas drove straight to Maple Garden.
Dressed in a custom–made black suit, he exuded an aura of cold elegance. His handsome, sharp face showed no trace of warmth as he reached out to press the doorbell.
The doorbell rang for a long time, but no one answered.
He took out his phone and called Aveline, but each time, he got the message that she was on another call.
She had blocked him!
She had blocked him again!
That infuriating woman!
Lucas pressed his lips into a straight line, and the coldness around him intensified, his gaze murderous.
Just as his patience was about to run out, the door finally opened.
“Aveline, you-” Lucas began to demand an explanation, but his eyes turned icy when he saw who had opened the door.
“What are you doing here?”
Russell crossed his arms, his short purple–gray hair adding to his roguish charm. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “That’s the question I should be asking you. Why are you ringing my doorbell?”
“Your doorbell?” Lucas‘ eyes narrowed dangerously before he barged into the room, his shoulder colliding forcefully with Russell’s.
Russell stepped back half a pace, a mocking smile curling his lips.
He watched Lucas head straight for the bedroom and didn’t stop him, following casually behind. “The property transfer was completed this afternoon. I’m now the owner of this house.”
Lucas searched all the rooms but found no trace of Aveline. Even her belongings
