After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 821

The aroma of grilled meat quickly filled the air, pulling Aveline's attention back to the present.

She was genuinely hungry.

It was clear that the presence of the men at the next table affected Selena's mood; several times, she seemed on the verge of saying something, only to catch sight of them out of the corner of her eye and sigh in frustration.

"So annoying," she finally muttered.

Aveline suggested, "Just enjoy the meal for now; we can talk about it later."

"Alright," Selena replied with a nod.

The atmosphere was somewhat awkward, but the meat was delicious, and Aveline ate quite a bit.

Meanwhile, the men at the next table were also getting fresh charcoal for their grill.

A man carrying a pan of hot coals approached and, just as he was about to place it in their grill, his expression sharpened, and suddenly he hurled the hot coals directly at Lucas!

If the burning coals hit Lucas, it would undoubtedly cause serious injury!

Everything happened too quickly. Although Lucas reacted in time, there was nowhere to escape, with the wall right behind him. He could only raise his arm to shield his head, but the coals still struck his forehead, and a searing pain shot through him!

"Ah!"

Gasps of shock erupted around them!

Aaron immediately grabbed the man, his voice cold as he barked, "Call the police!"

The man struggled violently, glaring at Lucas with pure rage. "You scum! You dared to hit someone in the hospital, and you think you deserve to be Chairman of the Tudor Group? People like you should just die!"

The scene descended into chaos!

Aveline jumped up and rushed over to Lucas, anxiously asking, "Lucas, are you alright?"

Lucas' face was pale with pain, and a patch of his forehead was red and burned, but he seemed otherwise uninjured.

However, there was ash and dust everywhere.
