The aroma of grilled meat quickly filled the air, pulling Aveline's attention back to the present. She was genuinely hungry.
It was clear that the presence of the men at the next table affected Selena's mood; several times, she seemed on the verge of saying something, only to catch sight of them out of the corner of her eye and sigh in frustration. "So annoying," she finally muttered.
Aveline suggested, "Just enjoy the meal for now; we can talk about it later." "Alright," Selena replied with a nod.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward, but the meat was delicious, and Aveline ate quite a bit.

A man carrying a pan of hot coals approached and, just as he was about to place it in their grill, his expression sharpened, and suddenly he hurled the hot coals directly at Lucas! If the burning coals hit Lucas, it would undoubtedly cause serious injury! Everything happened too quickly. Although Lucas reacted in time, there was nowhere to escape, with the wall right behind him. He could only raise his arm to shield his head, but the coals still struck his forehead, and a searing pain shot through him! "Ah!" Gasps of shock erupted around them! Aaron immediately grabbed the man, his voice cold as he barked, "Call the police!" The man struggled violently, glaring at Lucas with pure rage. "You scum! You dared to hit someone in the hospital, and you think you deserve to be Chairman of the Tudor Group? People like you should just die!" The scene descended into chaos! Aveline jumped up and rushed over to Lucas, anxiously asking, "Lucas, are you alright?" Lucas' face was pale with pain, and a patch of his forehead was red and burned, but he seemed otherwise uninjured.
However, there was ash and dust everywhere.
Lance, sitting beside him, had also been affected, and his expression was just as grim.
The restaurant manager quickly cover to assess the situation. With the police already called, he hurriedly explained, "He's just here to help today; he's not one of our employees! This has nothing to do with our restaurant!" Aveline responded coldly, "Whether it has anything to do with you or we'll wait for the police investigation to find out." His urgency to distance the restaurant from the incident was infuriating.
Selena glanced at the man pinned to the ground and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. "Buddy, you've done what I never dared to do. Your courage is commendable." The man struggled on the floor, his face flushed, but his eyes still burned with anger.
The police arrived shortly after, and the man was taken away for questioning.
Aveline suggested, "We should head to the hospital." Lucas' eyes settled on her face. "Are you worried about me?" Aveline frowned. "Is this really the tfor that?" "But I want to be sure of how you feel," Lucas insisted.
Aveline felt a strong urge to turn and walk away.

Aaron interjected, "Aveline, just humor him with something, ophe'll ve keep pestering you. Aveline sighed. "Let's get to the hospital now, or I'm leaving you here." "Okay." Lucas responded promptly, obediently following behind her.
Seeing this, everyone else looked surprised.
They had thought Lucas would be difficult to handle, but one cold stare from Aveline, and he was instantly e And he was docile.
docite. Aaron raised an eyebrow and glanced at Lance. "See? There's always someone who can keep him in check."
Lance replied calmly, "If he'd had that realization sooner, things wouldn't have escalated to this point."
