Lucas‘ cold gaze fell on her as if trying to see through her phone to Russell. 

His stare carried a sense of pressure that made Aveline uncomfortable. She shot him an annoyed look. Was she not allowed to take a call? 

Lucas kept quiet. 

He gripped his fork as if he were gripping Aveline’s neck. 

Russell’s voice came through. “Aveline, what’s wrong with Selena? I just contacted her, and she seemed very upset.” 

Aveline’s breath caught in her throat. She then said, “I made her angry. I’ll make it up to her.” 

Russell acknowledged this, then asked, “And you? How are you?” 

Aveline paused. “What do you mean?” 

Russell said, “Are you hurt? Actually, I rushed over there yesterday too, but I was a step too late.” 

He finished with a self–deprecating laugh. 

Aveline hadn’t realized he had gone too. Gratitude flickered in her eyes. “Thank you. I’m fine, not hurt.” 

Russell replied, “Good, that’s good.” 

A brief silence fell. 

As Aveline was considering ending the call, Russell suddenly asked, “Aveline, you and Lucas…” 

Aveline’s long eyelashes fluttered. She said, “Russ, thank you for all your help. I’ll handle my own affairs.” 

The implication was clear – she hoped he wouldn’t interfere further. 

Russell understood. 

Thinking of Selena’s attitude, his expression grew colder. 

Aveline had reconciled with Lucas. 

All because he had been one step too late yesterday.

“Alright, I respect your choice,” Russell said quietly, then hung up. 

Aveline looked at her phone, thinking about Selena. 

She must be very disappointed in her, right? 

They had already divorced, but now everything seemed to be back to square one. 

Suddenly, a hand appeared and took her phone away. Lucas said in a deep, cold voice, “Can’t bear to part with him? Should we invite him over for dinner?” 

Aveline frowned, looking at Lucas. “Can you stop being unreasonable?” 

Lucas laughed coldly. “I’m being unreasonable? You’re pining over another man, and I can’t even ask

about it? Aveline, have you fallen for Russell?” 

Aveline’s expression turned cold, feeling Lucas was being completely irrational. 

She stood up to leave. 

“Stop!” Lucas said sharply. “Finish your meal before you go!” 

Aveline was speechless.
