Chapter 297
"By the way, don't tell Aveline about this," Selena murmured, worried that Aveline might get anxious.
"Alright," Aaron replied absentmindedly. He was still wondering what request Selena might ask for. If she were to ask him to wed her, he would
know what to do.
It was a tricky situation. Why did he have to complicate things further by agreeing to fulfill yet another request?
Aaron sighed, thinking he really shot himself in the foot this time.
Back at the hotel, Aveline felt a sudden, inexplicable unease.
She stood there in a daze for a moment, but the feeling quickly passed, leaving her puzzled.
Just then, her phone rang.
Seeing it was Lucas, she hesitated.
Why was he calling her?
Instinctively, she wanted to ignore it, but since they weren't divorced. yet, she answered the call.
What if he was calling about the divorce?
"Hello?" Aveline said.
Lucas' voice came through. "Where are you? I'll send someone to pick you up. Grandma wants to see you."
Aveline felt a pang of disappointment-it wasn't about the divorce.
She replied, "Given our current relationship, it's not appropriate for me to see your grandmother. Please replace a reason to decline for me."

Barbara liked her a lot and treated her well, but after all, she was Lucas
grandmother. What did it have to do with her?
Lucas' tone grew colder, "I've already promised her, Aveline. Grandma has done nothing to wrong you."
Aveline frowned. "But I don't want to go. Are you going to force me?"
Lucas' face darkened. She had just sold the apartment filled with their memories and now didn't even want to see family. Was she so eager to sever all ties with him?
Lucas said in a deep voice, "Come with me, and I'll consider the divorce."
Aveline paused. "Are you serious?"
"Yes," Lucas replied, his tone flat and emotionless.
Aveline immediately agreed. "Alright, I'll send you my location."
Lucas abruptly ended the call.
A cold glint appeared on his face.
Divorce-she was quick to agree to that.
Divorce, divorce!
Why was that all she could think about? They were doing just fine without it, weren't they?
Desmond walked in and saw Lucas' cold expression.
He tread carefully, asking, "Mr. Tudor, are we leaving now?"
"Go pick up Aveline," Lucas said, standing up and heading outside.
Desmond quickly followed him.
Aveline waited in the hotel lobby.
When she saw Lucas' message, she stepped outside.
The car was parked at the hotel entrance, She opened the rear door and got in, only to replace that Lacas was driving.
"Sit in the front," he ordered coldly,
Knowing his stubbornness, Aveline didn't argue. She got out and took the front passenger seat.
Once she fastened her seatbelt, Lucas started the car and drove toward the Tudor family estate.
Aveline glanced at his handsome profile and asked, "Were you serious. about considering the divorce?" CON BUNDLE get more hee bus
