Russell responded, "Yes, he's one of the Tudors' bodyguards. He bears a striking resemblance to Bobby. With a hat and mask, it's nearly impossible to tell whether he's Bobby or someone else." Aveline's voice quivered, "So, is this bodyguard still at the Tudor residence?" "Yes." Russell nodded, sharing all the information he had uncovered.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAveline closed her eyes for a moment, feeling the scales within her tipping toward the possibility that Lucas knew about this all along. If he did know, why hadn't he said anything? What was he planning? Russell put his phone away and looked at her pale face.
"Aveline, you should be careful with him. No one can truly understand Lucas' intentions. If he's willing to torment Bobby, knowing he's innocent, what makes you think he won't do the sto you? What if you end up like Bobby?" Hearing this, Aveline's heart sank.
Yes, she could end up just like Bobby.
Even though they were divorced, Lucas still hadn't let her go. This twisted relationship had drained her. both mentally and physically, and she didn't know how much longer she could endure it.
Aveline looked at Russell's sharp yet gentle features and suddenly asked, "Russ, can you helpget away?" Russell's gaze deepened. "Where do you want to go?" Aveline opened her mouth to speak, but before she could, a soft scoffing sound interrupted them.
She froze, her face turning pale as she turned to see Lucas standing not far away. How much of their conversation had he overheard? Even though there was sdistance between them and the noise around them was loud, the feeling of being caught made Aveline's heart race with guilt.
