Aveline had been trying to keep a low profile, so she was a bit surprised when Barbara suddenly spoke

to her.

“Grandma, try this chicken leg, okay?” Aveline put some food on Barbara’s plate.

“Alright, I’ll try it.” Barbara’s attention was immediately diverted.

Lucas‘ deep gaze fell on Aveline’s face, but she only looked at Barbara, not giving him an extra glance.

Yvonne said, “Since you don’t come home often, you should spend a night here. Mom has been thinking about you.”

Barbara nodded in agreement. “Yes, stay. You must stay tonight.”

Aveline paused and looked at Lucas, hoping he would refuse. Given their current relationship, it wasn’t appropriate for them to stay together.

But to her surprise, Lucas nodded slightly. “Alright.

Her brows immediately furrowed.

What did he mean? Didn’t he see the look she gave him?

“Barbara took Aveline’s hand and said with a smile, ‘Ave, you and Lucas need to work hard so I cant hold my great–grandchild soon. I’ve had the kitchen prepare a healthy smoothie for you. Make sure you drink it before bed.”

Aveline smiled and nodded. “Okay, Grandma.

Barbara looked at Lucas. “You drink it too. Every single drop.”

“Alright.” Lucas nodded as well.

Frederick’s expression darkened, and Yvonne’s eyes flickered as she turned to Sophia. “Sophia, why don’t you stay with me tonight? We haven’t had a good chat in a long time.”

Sophia smiled and said, “Madam–Yvonne, wouldn’t that be inconvenient?”

Yvonne replied, “Not at all. You’ve stayed here before. You can stay in your old room. I’ll have it cleaned up.” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Sophia instinctively glanced at Lucas, but he kept his eyes downcast, his expression distant and indifferent, as if he hadn’t heard their conversation.

Yvonne said, “It’s settled then. Let’s eat first.”

Sophia reluctantly agreed, feeling somewhat awkward.

The atmosphere was a bit strange.

Aveline’s eyes flickered with a hint of faint mockery.

What did this mean?

Among everyone at the table, Barbara was the most honest.

Barbara ate seriously, occasionally placing food on Aveline’s plate, her eyes sparkling whenever she looked at her.

Aveline quickly composed herself and quietly ate.

After dinner, Yvonne turned to Lucas and said, “Lucas, your room is always tidy. Why don’t you show Aveline around upstairs? Let her get comfortable with where she’ll be staying.”

“Okay,” Lucas responded indifferently, standing up and heading upstairs.

Aveline followed, as she had something to say to him. His room was on the left side of the second floor. She opened the door to find the room decorated just like his office–black, white, and gray, exuding a cold atmosphere.

As the door closed, Aveline had no interest in making herself comfortable in the room. She looked at Lucas and asked, “Why did you agree to stay?”

Lucas took off his suit jacket and tossed it onto the sofa. He glanced at her casually, “Why not stay? It’s true I haven’t been back for a while.”

Aveline felt choked, pursing her lips. “But I don’t want to stay here.

Lucas replied, “Then you can leave.”

Aveline was speechless.

What if Barbara asked about her?

She didn’t want to disappoint the elderly woman who treated her so kindly!
