Chapter 561
Aveline looked at him coldly. “It’s still better than your reasons for getting close to me.”
“You’re wrong.”
Lucas looked at her with amusement. “I approached you simply because I wanted to possess you. But as for him, the consequences might be more than you can handle.”
Aveline pressed her lips together, not saying a word. She knew well enough who treated her well and who didn’t.
How could she possibly judge Russell’s intentions based on a few words from Lucas?
Besides, she had nothing to offer; what could Russell possibly want from her?
She pushed him away. “I have to go to work.”
Lucas, however, shut the door behind them, speaking coldly, “You need to go to the hospital first. You’re sick, and you need treatment.”
Aveline glared at him. “You’re the one who’s sick!”
Lucas replied, “You know better than anyone how healthy I am, don’t you?”
Aveline fell silent, unwilling to continue the conversation.
Lucas remained firm, insisting on taking her to the hospital.
Aveline resisted strongly, but as they reached the ground floor, Lucas‘ phone suddenly rang. He answered, “Hello?”
The person on the other end said, “Mr. Lucas, Madam Barbara is unwell. You should come and see her.”
Lucas responded indifferently, “If she’s unwell, take her to the hospital. I’m not a doctor.”
But the person on the other end sounded desperate, “This time it’s serious, Mr. Lucas. You’re her only grandson. You can’t just ignore her!”
Lucas furrowed his brows and glanced back at Aveline. Suddenly, he said, “Fine.”
After hanging up, he grabbed her hand. “You don’t have to see the doctor, but you need to come with me somewhere.”
