Aveline thought this over and spoke directly, "If it's about the situation between him and me, you don't need to say more. I can handle my own affairs." Gernard fell silent.

He had indeed cfor that reason.

With the uproar surrounding Lucas' altercation, he had intended to persuade Aveline once more. But hearing her distant tone, he felt a faint, inexplicable discomfort. A sense of unease that he couldn't quite understand. Seeing his silence, Aveline continued, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up now. I'm at work." Gernard replied, "Alright, as long as you know what you're doing.

"If you think I need to cry to prove I've been bullied, I wouldn't mind shedding a few tears for you." Aveline responded, "...No need." She got into the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt.

Lucas replied, "You calledso many times; you must be very concerned about my situationgiving you a good look so you can see I'm fine." Aveline blinked. "You're quite good at creating for yourself."

I'm just worried something might happen to you that would delay the divorce." "In any case, you're still worried aboutafraid something might happen, Lucas quickly dismissed the latter part of her sentence, pretending not to hear it.

Aveline fell silent.

Great. There's no arguing with him he always has his own way of reasoning. Lucas stopped teasing е her, started the car, and asked, "What do you want to eat?" Aveline replied, "I want to go home. I don't want to have dinner with you."

Lucas, however, said, "I was bullied today, criticized, and called into countless meetings. Arend
