"Juliet, I can agree to anything else, but not this. You are the heiress of the Skyler family; you must not do something that would destroy someone else's marriage." "What do you mean by destroying someone's marriage?" Juliet pouted. "I've already looked into it; they're getting a divorce. Besides, didn't you also hire a lawyer to help? You've done so much already, so why won't you helpwith this?" Gernard was surprised at how much she knew, his brows furrowing. "Juliet, why not like someone else? Why must it be him? Since you've investigated him, you should know he isn't someone you can trust." He tried to reason with her, "Aveline once saved his life, yet he wants to divorce her and has caused her so much pain. If that's how he treats his savior, do you think he'll treat you any better?" Juliet dismissed his reasoning, saying, "He dares to treat his wife that way because she has nothing. He wouldn't dare do the sto me; I have the entire Cooper family behind me. If he ever tries to hurt me, he'll have to think twice about whether he can afford to provoke us." Gernard's frown deepened.

She was stopped at the entrance, and feeling annoyed, she turned and left the Tudor Group. Sitting in her car, she received Aveline's file from her subordinate. After reading through it, an indescribable emotion flashed in her eyes. She called her subordinate, "Go buy a house and make sure Aveline is assigned to design it for me." As evening approached, Aveline walked out of the building and immediately spotted a Rolls-Royce Phantom parked by the roadside its sleek, luxurious lines exuded an air of grandeur. The car door swung open, and Lucas walked straight toward her.
A slight frown appeared on Aveline's delicate brow.
"What are you doing here?" she asked.
"Can't you tell?" Lucas replied. "I'm here to pick you up from work." Aveline's tone was cold. "That's not necessary." With that, she moved to walk past him, pulling out her car keys.
Lucas followed closely behind her. "Well, you could always givea ride hinstead. After all, we both live in the sneighborhood." Clearly, he wasn't planning on leaving her alone.
