Chapter 42
Lucas‘ dark eyes stared intently at their backs, a chilling aura growing around him, making others afraid to approach.
“Lucas.”
Sophia walked over, her face filled with concern as she looked at him. “Are you alright?”
She frowned. “What does Miss Young mean by this? Although you’re about to divorce, she is still your wife. How could she show you no respect at all? Walking away with Mr. Skyler, it’s outrageous.”
Lucas withdrew his gaze indifferently and said calmly, “I have something to attend to, I’ll be leaving first.”
Without looking at Sophia’s expression, he turned and walked away in another direction.
Sophia’s expression froze slightly.
She felt a sense of crisis.
Aveline clearly had a special place in Lucas’s heart.
How could this be?
She had worked so hard to get where she was today, even losing a leg in the process. She absolutely couldn’t let anyone take her place!
On the other side, Aveline looked at Russell. “Mr. Skyler, I’ll treat you to a meal another day, but I have something important to do now, so I can’t accompany you.”
Russell replied, “You don’t have my number. How will you treat me to a meal? Is it just an empty promise?”

Aveline asked, “Do you have a pen?”
Russell took a fountain pen out of his suit pocket and handed it to her.
Aveline unscrewed the pen cap, looked around, and finally said, Excuse me,” before writing her phone number directly on his shirt.
“Call this number when the time comes.” Aveline handed the pen. back to him and added, “You can also bring this shirt to me for washing then.”
Russell was momentarily stunned by her actions.
When she leaned in to write her number on his shirt, a faint fragrance from her reached him, making him feel a bit uneasy.
