Chapter 381
“Stop her,” Lucas ordered coldly, looking at Selena and signaling his bodyguards.
Two bodyguards immediately stepped forward, forcefully
restraining Selena and taking her phone.
Seeing this, Selena began to struggle. “What are you doing? Lucas, you bastard! Let me go!”
The bodyguards respectfully handed the phone to Lucas.
Lucas took it and deleted all the videos and photos Selena had taken. He then tossed the phone back to the bodyguards.
Aveline approached Selena and looked at the bodyguards. “Let her go!”
The bodyguards knew Aveline’s identity, but the order came from Lucas, leaving them uncertain. They looked to Lucas for guidance.
Aveline turned to Lucas, her voice icy. “Did you bring me back just to be a powerless trophy?”
The atmosphere in the clothing store grew tense.
Lucas‘ icy gaze fell on her before he waved his hand.
The bodyguards immediately released Selena.
As soon as she was free, Selena lunged at Lucas. “You bastard! How dare you-”
“Selena!” Aveline shouted, pulling her back, and raising her voice.
Selena, startled by Aveline’s outburst, calmed down and realized who she was dealing with. Her confidence wavered.
Lucas was known for holding grudges.
She had insulted him harshly, surely he was contemplating his
revenge.
“Apologize to my company’s spokesperson, Lucas demanded coldly, looking at Selena.
“Why should I apologize? If anyone should apologize, it’s you two scumbags! Selena retorted, unable to hold back.
Lucas‘ face darkened. “It seems you not only need to apologize to her but also to me. Slander, defamation, violation of image rights, and personal assault–these charges could land you in detention for 15 days.”
“You son of a-“Selena fumed, almost exploding with anger.
She wished she could tear Lucas‘ face apart!
This scumbag did something wrong and now had the audacity to act righteous!
Aveline quickly intervened, “Selena, calm down. Do you really want to be detained?”
Selena’s hands trembled with anger, but she forced herself to hold back.
Aveline turned her gaze to Lucas, then glanced at Moon hiding behind him.
“We’re not going to apologize,” Aveline stated firmly. “She provoked us first. I know you have the power to control this situation, but if it goes public on the internet, it won’t be good for either you or Miss Chew”
Lucas‘ eyes darkened as he looked at her calm demeanor. “So, you’re not planning to have her apologize?”
Aveline replied, “She defended me Shed
should she apologize?”
She couldn’t help but feel the irony. Selena, her friend, had always defended her. Lucas, her husband, constantly made things difficult
for her.
Lucas stared at her intensely. “Fine, call the police.”
“Lucas!” Aveline stepped forward, her eyes showing turmoil.
Lucas looked at her coolly. “What?”
Aveline couldn’t let Selena be detained. She bit her lip and said, “I’ll apologize to Miss Chew on her behalf. Will that work?”
Lucas let out a cold laugh. “With your current status–do you think your apology on her behalf is sufficient?”
He clearly wasn’t going to accept it!
Aveline’s fingers curled into fists as she looked at Lucas‘ cold, arrogant face. The atmosphere grew increasingly tense.
