Chapter 203 "Who the hell dared to kick me?" Gernard cursed as he struggled to get up. When he saw who had. arrived, the vicious snarl on his face instantly vanished, replaced by wide-eyed terror. "Mr. Tudor..." At that moment, Lucas held Aveline in his arms, his crisp, pleasant scent filling her senses. She felt stunned and disoriented.
Lucas radiated a chilling aura, his eyes cold and sharp. "You dare lay a hand on my woman?" Gernard immediately fell to his knees in fear. "Mr. Tudor, I'm sorry. I didn't recognize who she was. If I had known, I wouldn't have dared to covet her." Gernard had spent decades in Cloudflare City, but he was nothing compared to Lucas. Lucas wasn't just the CEO of DK Group; he had the backing of the influential Tudor family, who could remove anyone from society without a trace.
As Gernard kept begging for mercy, Desmond walked in, waved his hand, and two bodyguards stepped forward to drag Gernard out.

Seeing her in this state, Lucas couldn't bring himself to scold her. He looked at her for a long moment and then said, "Wait in my car." With that, he handed her the keys.
Aveline instinctively took them and watched as his tall, imposing figure walked away.
"Miss Young, please follow me," Desmond said respectfully as he approached.
Aveline nodded and followed Deshond out of the Grand Feast Club.
After they left, Gwen peeked out from a corner, covering her mouth, her face full of terror.
What should she do now? It seemed she had offended Lucas! 1/2 +15 BONUS If Lucas found out that she had orchestrated tonight's events, he would surely make her life a living hell! She took out her phone, checked her bank balance, and immediately booked a plane ticket, planning to leave overnight.
However, on her way home, two bodyguards suddenly grabbed her and shoved her into a car.
Aveline knew nothing of this.
She got into Lucas' car, his scent enveloping her completely, allowing her tense nerves to gradually relax.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the car window, startling Aveline. She turned to see Desmond smiling at her.

In truth, it was Desmond's idea.
Aveline held a special place in Lucas' heart, so it was wise to maintain a good relationship with her. He m wouldn't be foolish like Brian, who, knowing Aveline's significance to Lucas, still dared to provoke her. Brian deserved to get himself beaten up! "Thank you." Aveline, a bit surprised, took the tea. As she looked at it, she felt a bit dazed.
It seemed that ever since he regained his memory, he had stopped giving her these little things. COMMENTS X
