Chapter 329
He previously stole food from Russell at the hospital and now came here to compete with her for
more!
Was this man so deprived of food?
Tensions simmered at the dining table.
When it came to the last piece of rib, Aveline quickly reached out, but Lucas was faster, grabbing it before she could,
He raised an eyebrow at her.
“You can eat it, I’ve poisoned it,” Aveline said.
Lucas stared at her and began eating the rib, showing no fear at all.
Aveline pressed her lips together, remembering how he had suspected her when he was poisoned by > her cooking before.
Yet now, even when she outright claimed to have poisoned it, he ate without hesitation.
Was he certain she hadn’t poisoned it, or did he simply not fear death?
Suddenly, Aveline asked, “Lucas, if I really poisoned it, aren’t you afraid of dying?”
Lucas replied, “Before I die, I’ll make sure to kill you first. We can be companions on the road to the afterlife.”
Aveline rose expressionlessly and walked away.
Lucas watched her until she disappeared into the bedroom, then finally looked away. He set down his plate and utensils, and after a long pause, stood up to clean the dishes.
Sitting in the bedroom, Aveline felt irritated.
What should she do if he didn’t leave?
Let him stay here?
But this was Selena’s house.
She couldn’t make that decision.
Selena hated Lucas so much that if she knew he stayed the night, she would probably throw everything out upon her return.
“Sigh…”
Aveline sighed, opened the door, and stepped out “You…”
She began to speak while looking up, only to find that Lucas was no longer in the house.
She paused.
He had left?

Glancing at the dining table, she saw that it had been cleaned, and the dishes were washed.
She pressed her lips together slightly and walked to the door, locking, it securely. It was better that he left. It saved her the trouble of having to chase him away.
The next day.
Aveline made breakfast and took it to the hospital. But as soon as she entered the ward, another figure followed closely behind her.
Russell’s eyes twinkled slightly when he saw the two enter together.
“Mr. Tudor, are you planning on turning over a new leaf?” He asked, half–smiling at Lucas.
Lucas, however, acted as if he didn’t hear him, his lazy gaze falling on Aveline.
Aveline gripped the food container tightly, looking at him warily.
“If you want breakfast, there’s a breakfast shop to the left after you leave the hospital. Don’t let the door hit you on the way out,” she said coldly.
