Chapter 420
Selena wore a fawning smile, but it was clearly fake.
Aaron, unimpressed, lounged on the sofa and watched her unsteady hand gripping the wine glass. “If you spill that on me, you’ll have to lick it clean,” he said coolly.
Selena was speechless.
Damn it! How did this jerk guess what she was thinking?
She immediately steadied her hand. “No way, I’m sincerely offering you a toast. I would never do something so disgraceful.
Aaron chuckled but didn’t push the issue further. He picked up his glass and clinked it with hers.
As Selena raised her glass to drink, she felt a sudden dizziness, probably from having drunk too much earlier. Her hand wavered, and the wine spilled all over Aaron’s pants.
Selena fell silent.
She stared in shock. “I didn’t do it on purpose!”
Aaron’s face darkened as he slammed the glass onto the table. “Selena, you never cease to amaze me!”
She cursed herself silently while cleaning up the mess.
Selena pulled out a napkin to wipe him down. “I’m really sorry, it was an accident. I’ll clean it up.
Aaron stood up. “Come over here and clean it!”
With a scowl, he headed straight to the restroom.
Selena hurried after him, feeling regretful Why did she have to get dizzy at that moment?
Aveline blinked, watching them leave the private room one after the other, looking puzzled. “Why did they leave?“”
Sidney looked at her and asked, “Miss Young, are you okay?”
Aveline nodded, “I’m fine.”

Sidney said, “There are rooms upstairs where you can rest. Shall I take you there?” Aveline shook her head. “No need, I’ll wait for Selena to come back.”
Sidney didn’t press the matter. He sat quietly next to her, as well–behaved as ever.
Aveline’s gaze slowly drifted to his face, noticing that his features bore some resemblance to Lucas.
No, it was the gentle Lu she saw in him.
Lucas was too cold.
She didn’t like that.
She asked, “Have you graduated from college?”
Sidney paused and nodded. “Just graduated.”
Aveline was surprised. “Why did you work at the club after graduation? What was your major?”
Sidney replied, “Architectural design. This profession takes time to make money. My family had some issues, and I needed money.”
Aveline patted his shoulder. “How much do you need? Tell me, I can lend it to you.”
Sidney shook his head. “No need, I can manage on my own.”
Aveline smiled slightly. “As a designer, you need to keep your inspiration. If you keep working in a place like this, you’ll easily get exhausted. I’m also an architectural designer. If you need a job, you can let me know.”
Sidney nodded. “Okay.”
Aveline felt a bit dizzy and leaned back, half–closing her eyes, waiting for Selena to return.
Sidney picked up a piece of fruit and brought it to her lips. “Miss Young, want some grapes?”
Aveline’s eyes were dazed as she looked at him, not speaking. The two of them. appeared quite intimate when Lucas stood outside the private room and saw this
scene.

express.
A cold, icy aura enveloped Lucas, almost turning into a tangible chill!
Aveline opened her mouth, intending to refuse, but Sidney suddenly placed the grape in her mouth.
With a clean–shaven, handsome face, he smiled and said, “These grapes are really
sweet.”
