As Gernard spoke of his sister, a hint of fondness and helplessness appeared on his face.
Aveline watched him quietly for a moment before saying, "I actually have a question I want to ask you."
"Go ahead," Gernard replied, his expression soft and patient.
For some reason, every time he saw Aveline, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity that made him more patient than usual.
Aveline hesitated for a second before speaking, "I know someone whose identity was stolen by another person. This person not only took everything that should have belonged to her—her life, her opportunities—but also went so far as to try and destroy her, using any means necessary, even resorting to arson and drugging. What do you think my friend should do?"
Gernard's brow furrowed as he listened. "Your friend should expose the impostor for their crimes and reclaim everything that was stolen from her."
Aveline kept her gaze fixed on him. "Do you really think that?"
"Of course." Gernard nodded firmly, answering without hesitation. "This impostor sounds despicable. They stole your friend's identity, her parents' love, and yet they're still not satisfied and are trying to ruin her? That kind of person is truly malicious."
Aveline lowered her eyes slightly, her lashes concealing the emotions in her gaze. "It's good to know you think that way."
Gernard continued, "But, who is your friend? If she needs help, you can tell me."
"No need. She's already figured out what to do," Aveline replied with a faint smile.
"Good." Gernard nodded, satisfied, then returned to the topic of her and Lucas. "Think about what I said. Lucas really isn’t good enough for you."
Aveline’s voice was calm. "I’ll consider it."
At that moment, the waiter knocked and entered to serve the dishes.
