Chapter 462
“Lucas, are you out of your mind?”
Aveline was speechless.
She had done nothing, and yet he was suggesting arranging a room for her with another man. Was he out of his mind?
Lucas stared at her intensely for a long time before saying, “Aveline, you can’t accept another man, nor can you love another man. If I find out, you might not die, but that man will wish he was dead.”
His tone was serious, a grave warning. The possessiveness in his eyes was utterly undisguised.
Aveline pressed her lips together, her gaze complicated as she looked at him. If he had shown this behavior before, she would have been overjoyed. But after everything that had happened, hearing these words from him only left her feeling indifferent.
She lowered her eyes slightly. “Can I go wash up now? I’ve been busy all day, and I’m really tired.”
Lucas looked at her for another moment before finally letting her go.
Aveline walked towards the bathroom.
Lucas called a servant to clean up the ruined cake.
When Aveline came out, she saw him sitting on the sofa, a tube of ointment placed on the table in front of
him.
“I’ll help you apply the ointment,” he said in a deep voice when he saw her looking over.
Aveline pressed her lips together and said, “I can apply the ointment myself.” She walked over to take the
ointment.
Lucas, however, moved faster. His eyes locked onto hers. “Lie down on the bed.”
Aveline frowned but then gave up struggling.
She knew that if she resisted, he would only torment her more while applying the ointment, making it more painful for her. It was better to comply now, get the ointment applied, and go to sleep sooner.
She was truly exhausted…
Lucas looked at her long, white legs. Under the light, they were almost blindingly pale. He walked over and spread her knees apart slightly.
A chill hit her, and Aveline’s body instinctively shivered. She stared at the intricately designed ceiling, waiting to sleep after the ointment was applied.
But in the next second, she widened her eyes!
Aveline abruptly tried to sit up to avoid Lucas, but he grabbed her waist, holding her in place.
She looked at him in disbelief as waves of intense sensation washed over her. From her angle, she could only see the top of his dark, rough hair.
Her breath trembled. “Lucas, you…”

Soon, her strength faded, and she lay back down on the bed, biting her lip to stay silent.
She had no idea how much time had passed…
The blinding sensation finally subsided, and her breathing was erratic, her legs trembling.
