Lucas ate quickly, finishing the remaining food and tossing the container into the trash.
Aveline, feeling very weak, soon fell asleep again,
As the light in the room dimmed, Lucas sat on the sofa, his eyes intently fixed on her. He had grown accustomed to having her by his side; how could he let her go easily?
She wanted him to divorce her?
She’d have to wait for another lifetime!
The next day.
When Aveline woke up, she felt much better.
Desmond brought her breakfast, and after she finished eating, she said, “Lucas, you can’t imprison me
anymore.
“Okay,” Lucas responded flatly.
Aveline sighed in relief and got out of bed. “I’m fine now. I want to be discharged.”
She needed to see Russell! She still remembered how badly Russell had been beaten, and she felt
incredibly guilty.
Lucas frowned and replied, “Your condition is for the doctor to assess.”
Aveline couldn’t leave until the doctor examined her and confirmed she was well enough to be discharged.
After putting on her shoes, Aveline headed towards the door but turned back to Lucas. “Where’s my phone?”
Lucas‘ expression turned cold. “I don’t know.”
She had fainted; how could he have thought about her phone?
Aveline pressed her lips together and said, “My phone was left at your place. Have someone bring it to
me.”
Lucas stared at her. “Are you ordering me?”
Aveline retorted, “If it weren’t for you, my phone wouldn’t be there in the first place.”
Lucas was speechless.
His face darkened. However, he knew he was at fault.
With a cold and emotionless demeanor, he made a phone call.
Listening to his instructions, Aveline sat on the hospital bed, quietly waiting.

Half an hour later, her phone was brought to her. She took it and left immediately.
Lucas watched her. “Where are you going?”
Aveline replied, “None of your business!”

Lucas‘ face turned dark instantly.
This damn woman!
Once out of the hospital, Aveline called Russell,
“Aveline?” Russell’s voice sounded weak when he answered.
Aveline felt even more guilty and asked, “Russ, how are you now? Which hospital are you in?”
Russell replied, “I’m fine. What about you? Did he hurt you?”
His tone was filled with anxiety and concern for her.
Aveline said, “I’m okay. I want to come see you.”
“Alright.”
Russell gave her the address.
Aveline took a taxi to his hospital. She bought a fruit basket and some supplements from a store downstairs before heading to his room.
Brian informed Lucas about Aveline’s whereabouts. Lucas was in his car when he heard the news, and a frosty expression covered his face.
After hanging up, his eyes flickered, and he dialed another number. “Rina, Russell is in the hospital, Go check on him.”
“I’m just happy you came. There’s no need to bring anything,” Russell said, frowning slightly as he saw Aveline carrying the items into his room.
