Chapter 431
Aveline smiled slightly. “Alright, when I finally decide to do it, I’ll let you all know. You can invest, and I’ll be the chef.”
Selena replied, “No problem!”
They all moved into the dining room.
Russell’s eyes lit up as he looked at the beautifully prepared dishes. “I have to commemorate my first meal back in the country.”
He took out his phone and snapped a picture.
Aveline and Selena’s hands were captured in the photo, resting on the table’s edge.
After posting the picture to his social media, Russell said, “I’m really hungry. Let’s eat.”
“Okay.”
They all sat down again.
The atmosphere grew even more lively.
As night fell…
In the bar.
Aaron was bored, scrolling through his phone, still pondering how to approach Snow.
Then he saw Russell’s post on social media.
He clicked on the picture, seeing six delicious dishes and a soup, clearly prepared by someone who was highly skilled at cooking. 1
At the table’s edge, two pairs of hands were visible.
He squinted, zooming in on the image, and then said, “Selena?”
Lucas looked up at him. “It’s only been a short time apart, and you already miss her? Feeling lovesick?”
Aaron replied, “No, Russell posted something. Selena is having dinner with him, and there’s someone else with them. Judging by the hands…”
He glanced at Lucas and handed him the phone. “I won’t speculate. It’s your wife. See if you recognize her
hand.”
Lucas‘ brow furrowed as he took the phone and looked at the picture. He immediately recognized Avetine’s hand.
He was deeply familiar with her body, knowing every detail.
Russell was back.
And his first meal back was with Aveline!
Heh!
Lucas gripped the phone tightly, his expression sour.

Aaron snatched the phone back and said, “Looks like Russell handled things abroad well. This time, he won’t be leaving easily.”
The better he performed, the more respect he would gain from his father. Even as an illegitimate son, he could very well inherit the Skyler family in the future.
Lucas picked up his glass and started drinking.
Aaron asked, “So, what are you going to do next?”
Lucas replied coldly, “What do you mean, what am I going to do? Aveline is my wife. Who does he think he is?”
Aaron continued, “But what if he doesn’t mind being the third party?”
Lucas‘ face darkened completely. “I’ll make sure he wishes he were dead!”
Aaron shivered involuntarily. Lucas looked terrifying at that moment!
He suddenly suggested, “Why don’t we go check it out? Three people having dinner doesn’t sound like much fun.”
Lucas gave him a frosty glance and said, “You just want to see Selena, don’t you?”
Aaron immediately denied it, “Are you kidding? Why would I want to see her? With her attitude, I’d rather look at a beggar on the street than her.”
Lucas replied, “But you haven’t slept with a beggar.”
Aaron was speechless.
A good friend sure knew how to hit where it hurt most,
Aaron pointed at him, wanting to say something, but eventually gave up.
No matter what he said, it would just lead to more mutual damage.
It was pointless.
Selena pulled a beer from the fridge with a smile. “We have to celebrate Russ’s return properly.”
Russell raised an eyebrow. “Are you sure?”
He looked at Aveline with a playful smirk.
