Lucas carried her into the bathroom, a hint of amusement playing in his eyes as he washed her. "See? My service

is quite thorough. Are you comfortable?" After the intense passion they had just shared, Aveline's body felt weak

and limp, but her tone was icy. "Very comfortable. How much do | owe you?"

Lucas paused mid-wash, a dangerous glint appearing in his eyes. "What did you just say?"

Aveline continued as if she hadn't noticed, "Based on market rates, your skills and service were decent. How

about a thousand bucks?"

Lucas laughed in disbelief. This woman-she was treating him like shired plaything!

He squeezed her gently, teasingly. "Seems you're satisfied with my service. How about we continue?"

Aveline met his gaze coolly.

Lucas didn't hold back, bending down to capture her lips in a deep kiss, only letting go when he felt her breath

becuneven.

Aveline reached up to push him away, but he simply resumed washing her.

Resigned, she leaned against his shoulder and said, "Your fever's down, and I'm fine too. Let's head to the

lawyer's office afterward." For a moment, Lucas didn't know what to say.

They were in such an intimate position, having just shared such a passionate moment, and now she was talking

about getting a divorce... But he couldn't argue. He had agreed to it.

"Fine," he replied, pulling a towel over and wrapping her in it.

Aveline pushed him away. "I can walk by myself."

Lucas didn't stop her, watching her slender figure as she moved away, a hint of sadness in his eyes.

She was such a cold-hearted woman to just forget all their intimacy as she put on her dress.

After dressing, Aveline returned upstairs, freshened up, had a light breakfast, and grabbed her documents. She

headed back downstairs.

As the elevator doors opened, Lucas stepped in just at that moment. There was a subtle tension between them.

Aveline said, "Just to be safe, I'll take your car."

Lucas remained silent.

Aveline glanced at him. "There shouldn't be any surprises this time, right?"

Lucas met her gaze. "How would | know?"

Aveline let out a slight scoff, saying nothing more. Last time, she thought they really got divorced, but what

happened? He'd pulled a stunt with a fake divorce certificate!

This time, she wouldn't let anything like that happen again.

When they arrived at the underground parking lot, Lucas took out the car keys, and Aveline opened the

passenger door and got in.

They were the first clients to arrive at the lawyer's office. Aveline could hardly contain her excitement, but she

noticed that Lucas wasn't following her inside. She turned back to him. "What are you doing?"

Lucas replied, "I seem to have a strange connection with this place."

Aveline's mouth twitched, but she didn't respond.

They went through the formalities, following the steps one by one. But once again, things stalled at the point

where they needed to settle the division of marital assets

Aveline said, "I don't want a penny. I'll leave with nothing."

Lucas countered, "How can that be? You're my wife, and you've stood bythrough tough times. | insist on

compensating you. I'll have my lawyer calculate my assets, and then we'll divide them."

Aveline frowned. "You agreed so quickly. Were you planning this all along?"

Lucas' expression remained calm. "Not at all."

Aveline insisted, "Then let's do it my way. I'll leave with nothing. No money. Let's get this done now."

Lucas looked at her deeply for a long moment before finally turning to the clerk. "Do as she says."
