She tried to get up, but the pain coursing through her body forced her back onto the bed. Her face turned ghostly pale. 

Bastard! 

Thinking about what Lucas had done made Aveline’s eyes well up with tears, but she fought them back, knowing that crying wouldn’t help. 

She had brought this upon herself. She should never have agreed to his demands! Pretending to play along had led her to this. She would be better off dead, ending it all! 

Aveline pulled the blanket over herself, trying to calm down. After some time, she finally stabilized her emotions and got up, dragging her sore legs to wash up. 

When she emerged, she saw Lucas sitting on the sofa in the living room, exuding a cold aura. Without glancing at him, she walked straight past. 

Lucas withdrew his gaze and spoke into the phone. “Extract the footage from Aveline’s car’s dashcam.” 

She mentioned being attacked last night. Since the underground parking lot had no surveillance, he had no idea what really happened. 

“Yes,” Desmond replied. 

Lucas added, “Also, investigate Sidney’s background.” 

“Understood,” Desmond answered. 

Lucas ended the call, pinched the bridge of his nose, then grabbed his coat and left. 

Aveline arrived at her studio, not in the best shape. To hide her exhaustion, she applied makeup, making 

her look much better. 

Sidney was already there, sitting at his workstation, awkwardly using the mouse with his left hand. 

Aveline asked, “Why aren’t you resting?” 

His right hand was injured; he could take time off. 

When Sidney saw her, he remembered the voice message he received last night, and his expression turned awkward. 

“I didn’t have much else to do, so I came in,” he said. 

Aveline, also recalling the events of the previous night, pressed her lips together and returned to her workstation. The atmosphere between them was slightly tense. 

When Maria arrived and saw Sidney’s injury, she immediately asked, “What happened?” 

Sidney replied, “I got hurt by accident:” 

Maria said, “You should go home and rest. Don’t come to work until you’re fully recovered.” 

Sidney shook his head. “I’m fine. I can do some light tasks.”

Maria insisted, “You need your hand to draw. I don’t want you to end up regretting not taking good care of your health. Go home and rest.”
