Aveline’s sudden decision to leave caught the entire Tudor family off guard.
Gavin and Wilfried hurried to her room, only to find that she had already packed her things. Their faces were filled with concern.
"Ave, what’s going on? Why the rush?" Wilfried asked, stepping forward.
Aveline took a deep breath. "Lucas is hurt. I need to go see him."
"This..." Wilfried was momentarily stunned.
Hadn't she been avoiding Lucas just recently? She didn’t even want to see him. Why did she change her mind so quickly?
Aveline’s eyes reddened as she looked at Wilfried. "Dad, I’m sorry I can’t stay and spend New Year's with you. But I have to go. If I don’t, I’ll regret it for the rest of my life."
It was serious—too serious.
Wilfried wanted to ask her to wait until after the holidays, but the words wouldn’t come out.
Gavin broke the silence. "Let me find out exactly what's going on first."
There was no stopping her, though. After all, Lucas was the father of her child.
Wilfried sighed softly. "I thought we'd finally have a family reunion this year. But I guess we’ll have to wait until next year."
"I’ll come back as soon as he’s okay," Aveline promised.
"Take your time. He’s the father of your child, after all," Wilfried replied, knowing there was little he could say to change her mind.
Gernard quickly arranged the private jet, and Aveline, suitcase in hand, boarded.
Gernard joined her inside the cabin. "I couldn’t let you go alone. I’ll come with you."
Wilfried had insisted as well, "Yes, let him go with you. If anything happens, you can rely on him."
Gavin also chimed in, "Take care of our sister."
