Chapter 164
“Russ, why are you suddenly interested in the Tudor family’s affairs?” the person on the other end of the line asked in
surprise.
Russell replied slowly, “The old man wants me to show some real results. I’ve decided to work on that.”
The other person was even more surprised. “Russ, you’re. actually considering going back to the Skyler family? I thought you weren’t interested.”
Russell replied, “I’m interested now. Is that a problem?”
“No, no problem at all! Russ, just wait. I’ll find out everything soon!”
After hanging up the phone, a dark glint flashed in Russell’s eyes. What exactly was going on?
The image of Aveline’s pale face flashed through his mind, and he tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
Aveline had been waiting for two days, but the test results. still hadn’t come back. That morning, she went to work as usual, only to be surprised to find Desmond at her door.
Aveline asked in confusion, “What’s going on?”
Desmond gave her å professional smile and handed her a document. “This is a divorce agreement. Mr. Tudor has already signed it. Once you sign it, the agreement will take effect, and your marriage to Mr. Tudor will be dissolved.”
Aveline’s expression froze, and her grip on the doorknob tightened, her knuckles turning white.
The divorce she had longed for had come, but at this moment, she didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.
She scoffed. “Lucas, you’re really ruthless.”
He falsely accused her, and now he wanted to throw her away and blame everything on her.
He had another thing coming!
“Let me see it.”
Aveline reached out her hand.
Desmond handed her the divorce agreement, thinking that once she signed it, his task for the day would be complete.
Aveline carefully read through the document, then suddenly raised her hand and tore the agreement to shreds!
Desmond was shocked. “Miss Young, what are you doing…?”
Hadn’t she been eager to get a divorce? Now that she could finally have her wish, why was she tearing up the agreement?
Aveline’s eyes glinted with cold light. “I will divorce him, but not now. I didn’t poison him, and I will prove my innocence. He must apologize to me. Otherwise, I will never agree to the divorce!”
Trying to pin all the blame on her and then dump her? No way!
Aveline tossed the shredded paper into the trash and headed
straight to work, closing the doge behind her.
Ismond was left stunned.
Now had things gone so differently from what he expected?
At the hospital, Laicas‘ handsome, sharp face darkened as he listened to Desmond’s report.
Aaron commented, “She’s a stubborn person. After what you said to her, of course, she was furious,”
Laicas‘ lips parted slightly. “Keep sending the papers until she agrees to sign.”
“Yes, Mr. Tudor,” Desmond replied.
Aaron chuckled from the side. First, she wanted a divorce, and you refused. Now you want a divorce, and she refuses, Are you two playing a game?”
Lucas‘ gaze shifted to his laptop. As soon as he started recovering, he began handling work again.
He didn’t respond to Aaron’s comment and instead asked, ” How’s the investigation going?”
Aaron’s expression grew more serious. “The other side covered their tracks well. We haven’t found anything suspicious yet. Laicas, could it be that we’re looking in the wrong direction?” A
“Impossible,” Lucas replied coldly, “To achieve his goals, he’ll stop at nothing. Either you haven’t found anything yet, or he has hidden it very well.”

Aaron took a bite of an apple. “True. He used every trick in
the book to try to kill you. You really have a knack for
