Divorced

Chapter 278 

Desmond continued, “Please, just consider it as a favor for Mr. Tudor, who saved you.” 

Aveline closed her eyes and said, “Alright.” 

Desmond breathed a sigh of relief. Great, I’ll send you the address.” 

He hung up the phone immediately. 

As Aveline glanced at her phone, she couldn’t shake the thought that Lucas would likely use having saved her as leverage whenever her needed something from her. But then again, hadn’t it always been. because of him that she found herself in trouble? 

She changed her clothes and headed out to the bar. 

Even in the dim light, she immediately spotted Lucas on the second. floor. His distinguished and cold aura was impossible to ignore. 

However, there was a woman sitting next to him–Sophia. 

She had come to Arthur Town. 

Aveline watched them silently. 

She saw Sophia talking to Lucas, and he wasn’t drinking anymore. 

Who said she was the only one who could persuade him? 

Clearly, Sophia could do that too. 

As she saw Lucas reach out to Sophia, Aveline averted her gaze turned to leave. 

and 

Desmond felt like crying. He couldn’t fathom why Sophia was in Arthur Town and what brought her here at this moment. 

Standing aside, he looked at Sophia sitting on the sofa, then glanced at his phone. 

Oh no! 

Who could save him now? 

Desmond had just called Aveline. He had hoped to ease the tension. between Lucas and Aveline, but now it was all ruined. 

He saw that Aveline had already left. She must have seen Sophia. This was a disaster! 

Sophia looked at Lucas with a gentle expression, waiting for his touch.. 

Lucas‘ hand stopped midway, his handsome, sharp face still showing a trace of drunkenness. 

He looked at her with half–closed eyes. “Who are you?” 

Sophia was stunned and grabbed his hand. “Lucas, it’s me, Sophia.” 

Lucas immediately withdrew his hand and rubbed his forehead. “What are you doing here?” 

His tone was a bit clearer now. 

Sophia looked at her empty hand and said softly, “You haven’t been back for a long time. I missed you, so I asked your father where you were, and I came to surprise you. Lucas, aren’t you happy to see me here?” 

Lucas‘ tone grew colder. “You shouldn’t have come here.” 

Sophia’s face turned pale, and tears welled up in her eyes. “Is it because Miss Young is here? Did you come here for her?” Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Lucas responded, “The environment here isn’t as nice as Cloudflare. City. You might not feel comfortable here.” 

Sophia felt a sense of relief and said, “It’s okay. I’ll be wherever you are.”

Lucas said, “It’s getting late. I’ll have someone take you to a hotel.” 

Sophia asked, “Lucas, where are you staying? Can I stay at the same hotel? I’m not familiar with this place, and I’m a bit scared.” 

Lucas lowered his hand and gave her a deep look. “Let’s go.” 

Sophia’s eyes sparkled with joy, and she moved forward to support him. “Lucas, you’re drunk. Let me help you.” 

But Lucas called out, “Desmond, come over!” 

“Yes, sir!” Desmond immediately came to support him. 

Sophia had to retract her outstretched hand. 

As they left the bar, Sophia tried to sit with Lucas in the back seat, but he refused. 

He looked at her and said, “You sit in the front. I’ve been drinking, and the smell might bother you.” 

Sophia smiled. “It’s okay, Lucas. Let me take care of you.”
