Divorced 130
Chapter 130
Aveline stepped out of the car, but having drunk so much, she felt unsteady. As soon as she lifted her head, a wave of dizziness hit her, causing her to stumble instinctively.
Seeing this, Russell immediately reached out to steady her. “Are you okay?”
Aveline regained her balance and realized how close she was to
Russell. She quickly withdrew her hand and smiled. “I’m fine, just a bit dizzy.”
Russell frowned. “In your condition, how will you get home? Let me take you.”
“No need…” Aveline shook her head, about to say more when a familiar voice sounded from nearby.
“This isn’t the best spot. Why don’t you head upstairs?”
Aveline and Russell turned to see Lucas sitting in a car not far away, the window rolled down, revealing his cold, grim face. His eyes were fixed on them with a dark, intense gaze.
Aveline pursed her lips, looked away, and said to Russell, “I’ll go now.”
Russell seemed worried. “Aveline, maybe I should…”
“No, it’s fine.”
Aveline gave him a faint smile, then turned and walked towards the building.
Russell watched her back for a long time before shifting his gaze.to Lucas in the car. A mocking smile curled on his lips. “Lucas, don’t you have someone you love? Why not divorce her? Aren’t you afraid of hurting her?”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
Lucas looked at him coldly, “Why? Tired of being a bastard and want a new role as the other man?”
Russell’s smile chilled, his gaze turging, dangerous, Lacas, however, didn’t regard him at all, looking away indifferently and giving command to the driver. The car then moved forward.
Russell’s eyes grew colder, but a mischievous smile suddenly appeared on his lips,
When disappointment accumulates, letting go becomes inevitable.
Heh!
Aveline went upstairs and headed straight to her bedroom. She submerged herself in warm water, gradually dispelling the feelings of dizziness and discomfort.
Closing her eyes, she thought about Lucas’s demeanor tonight.
He was so cold and heartless, a stark contrast to the man he used to
- be.
What was he thinking?
If he was unhappy with Selena’s insults, he could have easily. avoided them by divorcing her. Why keep dragging it out?
Could it be that he really intended to use her life as a shield for Sophia?
Instinctively, Aveline didn’t want to believe this reason. She felt he wasn’t that kind of person.

There were some disordered sounds in her ears. Aveline suddenly emerged from the water, wiped her face, and opened her eyes to see Lucas standing not far away. She was startled.
“How did you get in here?”
She stared at him in disbelief.
She had changed the lock code, and only she and Selena knew the new code. How did he get in?
Lucas simply looked at her coldly. He raised his hand and loosened his collar, then pulled off his tie and tossed it aside.
Sensing danger, Aveline tried to get up and leave, but he was already in front of her. He pushed her back into the tub.
