Divorced

Chapter 279 

“Sit in the front passenger seat,” Lucas commanded, his tone leaving no room for argument. 

Sophia had no choice but to comply. “Okay.” 

Back at Celestial Heights, Sophia followed Lucas to the entrance of the presidential suite. Desmond took out a key card, his heart pounding. 

Once inside, Sophia said, “There are so many rooms here. Let me stay. It’ll be easier to take care of you, okay?” 

Lucas‘ cheeks were still flushed. He looked around the suite, but there was no sign of Aveline. He sat on the sofa and closed his eyes, then told Desmond, “Instruct the manager to open another room.” 

“Yes, sir.” Desmond nodded, then turned to Sophia. “Miss Winter, please come with me.“. 

Sophia looked at Lucas. “Lucas, let me stay here. I promise I won’t disturb you. I can cook for you and take care of you. Please?” 

Lucas responded, “It’s not appropriate.” 

Sophia’s expression faltered. 

Lucas had made his stance clear, and pushing further would only annoy him, especially since he had already told her their marriage talk was off the table. 

Maintaining her composure, Sophia said, “Alright, call me if you need anything.” 

“Okay,” Lucas replied. 

Sophia left with Desmand. 

Lucas immediately stood up and opened the door to the guest bedroom. It was empty. Aveline had left. 

His expression darkened as he took out his phone and dialed her 

number. 

“Hello?” Aveline’s voice came through. 

“Where did you go?” Lucas asked, his voice low and stern. 

Aveline replied, “Didn’t you have someone following me? Just ask them.” 

Lucas‘ tone grew colder, “I want you to tell me!” 

Aveline said, “Oh, well, I don’t want to tell you.” 

“Aveline!” Lucas‘ chest filled with intense irritation. “Did I give you permission to leave? Come back right now!” 

Aveline laughed at his words. “My legs are my own. I can go wherever I want. Why do I need your permission?” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

The veins on Lucas‘ forehead bulged as he tried to keep his temper in check. “Aveline, you know it’s not safe outside. Come back now, and I won’t hold it against you for leaving without permission.” 

“Heh!” Aveline chuckled and then hung up the phone. 

Lucas was so infuriated he nearly threw his phone! 

Where had things gone wrong? Why did she leave? 

Wait a minute… Sophia! 

Lucas messaged Desmond and, upon seeing his reply, his face turned icy cold. 

Aveline had seen Sophia. 

No wonder she left so suddenly. 

Lucas immediately called Brian. “Protect her!” 

Brian replied solemnly, “Don’t worry, Mr. Tudor. I’ll guard Miss Young with my life!” 

Lucas hung up and sat on the sofa, pressing his hand against his
