Lucas tightened his hold on her abruptly, as if he wanted to merge her into his very bones. 

*Impossible.” 

His voice grew more hoarse as he clung to her, “Aveline, I won’t divorce you. 

Aveline closed her eyes briefly. “Then let Bobby go.” 

This tim 

time, Lucas didn’t move or speak. 

After nearly a minute of silence, he released her and cupped her face, saying, “Aveline, I’ll make it up to you. I’ll give you anything you want, but I can’t do those two things.” 

Aveline let out a cold laugh. “You’re so hypocritical. You say you’ll give me anything, yet you refuse the conditions I set.” 

Lucas pressed his lips together, not reacting to her accusations and mockery. 

He gazed at her tear–streaked face, gently wiping away her tears, and said softly, “Aveline, you can ask for anything else.” 

Aveline pushed his hand away. “I’m not interested in anything else.” 

Looking at her now indifferent face, her lips swollen from his kiss, adding an air of intimacy, her 

expression remained icy. 

It was as if she hadn’t been moved at all. 

He just looked at her for a long time without saying anything. 

Aveline pushed him away. “Leave, I need to rest.” 

She was truly exhausted and sleepy. 

Ignoring Lucas, she went straight into her room and lay on the bed. 

But Lucas didn’t leave. 

He went to the bathroom to take a shower. Without any clothes, he emerged naked and lay on the bed, pulling her into his arms. 

Feeling his skin against hers, Aveline’s eyes snapped open. “Get out!” 

Lucas replied, “I’m staying with you.” 

After what she’d been through, she must be scared. 

He didn’t intend to do anything, and at that moment, he didn’t feel like it either; he just wanted to be there for her. 

Aveline looked into his eyes and found it laughable! 

Just a few hours ago, he was cold and ruthless, telling her to get out of the car.

And now? 

He seemed like a completely different person, like a chameleon changing on a whim! 

But she had no interest in playing along! 

Aveline got out of bed and went to lie down on the sofa in the living room. 

She didn’t want to be in the same space as him! 

Lucas realized this, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it. 

He didn’t go out immediately. 

Instead, he waited until he heard her breathing become steady before getting up and walking over to her. He picked her up gently. 

As he laid her back on the bed, he noticed tears streaming from the corners of her eyes. 

She was mumbling something. 

Lucas leaned in to listen closely, and his face instantly darkened.
