Desmond remarked, “This was really a close call. Thank goodness Mr. Tudor had the foresight to assign Brian to protect you discreetly. 

Otherwise, you would have been in serious trouble.” 

Aveline was stunned to hear this. 

Lucas had assigned Brian to protect her? 

Wasn’t he afraid Brian would kill her outright? She still hadn’t forgotten how Brian had forced her to kneel to Sophia last time! 

Brian, unable to meet Aveline’s eyes, stood to the side with his head lowered, like a child who had done something wrong. 

Desmond, ever perceptive, immediately noticed the tension and changed the subject. “Miss Young, I’ll take you back. Rest assured, Mr. Tudor will definitely find out who is behind this and give you an explanation.” 

Aveline nodded slightly, feeling a mix of emotions she couldn’t quite identify. 

Desmond escorted Aveline back to Celestial Heights. 

After leaving the hospital, Brian disappeared into the shadows, presumably to continue protecting her. 

Aveline felt indifferent about it. 

Back at Celestial Heights, Desmond walked her to her suite door before taking his leave. As he left, he said, “Miss Young, I’ve arranged for the hotel to send dinner up to your room. Please don’t go to sleep yet.” 

“Okay, thank you,” Aveline nodded at Desmond. 

Desmond smiled. “Miss Young, there’s no need to be so polite with me. If you need anything, just let me know.” 

“Alright.”
