Aaron carefully observed Lucas‘ expression. He noticed that his demeanor had quickly turned cold, and even his entire aura had shifted. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Aaron cleared his throat and said, “Well, maybe I got it wrong. He wasn’t here to celebrate your birthday. She was…

“Shut up!”

Lucas snapped, handing the phone back to him before getting up and walking away.

Aaron fumbled to catch the phone and hurriedly asked, “Hey, where are you going?”

On the same floor, in another private room.

Aveline pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Russell seated in the middle of the sofa, surrounded by a group of people. The atmosphere in the room was lively, and everyone, was complimenting him.

“Russ,” Aveline greeted as she approached, a faint smile appearing on her face.

Russell heard her voice and looked her way. A charming smile immediately spread across his delicate, handsome face. “You’re here, have a seat.”

Seeing this, the people around quickly made space for Aveline.

She walked over and handed him a bag. “Happy birthday.”

Russell looked even more surprised. When he saw the shirt inside the bag, his smile deepened. “Out of all these people, your gift is the one I like the most. I’m about to start working at the company, and I actually needed a shirt. Thank you.”

Aveline couldn’t help but chuckle. With his status, how could he possibly lack clothes to wear? It was just his way of acknowledging her.

Russell took out his phone and snapped a photo of the bag, then

immediately posted it on Instagram.

Aveline sat nearby and started drinking some juice.

After finishing his post, Russell asked, “How have you been lately?”

Aveline replied, “Pretty good, nothing unexpected has happened.”

Russell nodded. “That’s good.”

“Russ, who’s this beautiful lady?”

“Russ, why don’t you introduce us? Is she your girlfriend?”

Someone with a loud and boisterous personality noticed how close Russell and Aveline seemed and started teasing him.

Russell glanced at the person and replied, “Don’t talk nonsense, she’s shy.”

“Oh! She’s shy!” The person mimicked Russell’s tone, a knowing smile spreading across his face. “Seems like your relationship is something special!”

Aveline lowered her eyes slightly. The lively atmosphere was a bit overwhelming for her, and she still felt a little out of place.

Russell patted her arm and said, “They’re just used to being casual like this, don’t take it to heart.”

Aveline nodded. “I won’t.”

As the room grew more lively, Aveline’s mood was gradually uplifted, and a faint smile remained on her face..

Just then, the door to the private room opened, and Rina walked in.

“Look who’s here, it’s Miss Johnson!”

“What gift did the young lady prepare this year?”

“Last year, she gave Russ an entire island. Is there something even bigger this year?”

Rina raised her chin with a slight smile. “Of course, I’ve brought the best gift.”

Her gaze fell on Russell, but then she noticed Aveline sitting beside him. Rina’s expression immediately darkened. She strode over and grabbed

Aveline, pulling her up.

“What are you doing here, woman?”

Aveline was caught off guard by the sudden pull, leaving her momentarily stunned. When she met Rina’s angry gaze, her brows furrowed.
