Divorced 331
Just as Aveline was about to give up, Lucas suddenly averted his gaze and walked towards Bluewater Bay Villa.
"Follow me," he commanded coldly without looking back.
He
e wasn't worried about her running away.
She had no power or influence and couldn't escape his grasp.
Aveline clenched her fists and had no choice but to follow.
However, instead of entering the beautiful villa, Lucas walked towards the garden.
Suspicion flashed in Aveline's eyes.
Why were they going this way? What was he planning?
Her questions were quickly answered.
At the far end of the garden stood a two-story building, guarded by several bodyguards at the
entrance.
"Mr. Tudor," they greeted respectfully upon seeing Lucas.
"Open the door," he ordered coldly.
One of the bodyguards took out a key and opened the door. Aveline, standing a bit farther away. frowned as she peered inside. The small building was pitch dark, but she could see someone sitting on a chair.
The sudden light made the person inside raise a hand to shield their eyes. As they adjusted to the light, they quickly stood and tried to escape, but the bodyguards intercepted them.
This time, Aveline could see who it was clearly-it was Sophia inside!
Lucas had locked her up!
Wasn't Sophia supposed to be his benefactor? How could he treat her like this?
After being confined for two days, Sophia looked pale and frail, as if a mere gust of wind could topple
her.
"Lucas, you actually locked me up!" Sophia's eyes were red as she spoke to Lucas, her voice trembling.
Lucas's expression remained indifferent. "Is this fun for you?"
Sophia trembled with rage. "How can you treat me like this? Even if you don't like me, if it weren't for me, you would've died in that accident. I saved your life! How can you do this to me?"
She looked at him hysterically, unable to believe the man who once wanted to divorce Aveline for her was now locking her up. For two whole days, she had been in complete darkness, feeling like she was in hell. She had shouted for help repeatedly, but no one responded.
Sophia, looking weak and unsteady, stood out even more with her prosthetic leg.
Lucas glanced at her prosthetic and said, "I found the doctor who treated you after the accident. You didn't have to use'a prosthetic. Why did you give up your leg?"Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Sophia's body shook at his words. How could he have found that doctor?
With a pale face, she replied, "I don't know what you're talking about. We were both unconscious after the accident. How could I have chosen to give up my leg?
"Lucas, are you saying this because you don't want to be in debt to me? How can you say something. like that? We were together for two years, about to get married! I never did anything to wrong you. Why are you treating me like this?"
As Sophia's cries echoed, Aveline felt a sudden sense of déjà vu. She had said similar things once. Her complex gaze shifted to Lucas.
Was he really such a heartless person?
