How could she know?
Aveline was about to explain, but seeing the coldness in his eyes, she suddenly realized that no matter how she explained, he
wouldn’t believe her.
It felt absurd.
How could someone change so much just by regaining their memory?
Or maybe, the Lucas she knew before wasn’t the real him at all?
“You’re hurting me!”
Aveline felt the pain in her wrist, and her brow furrowed.
Almost instinctively, Lucas released her hand.
Her skin was fair, and even a little force would leave marks. At this moment, there were several red imprints on her wrist.
Such marks used to frequently appear on her waist.
Lucas’s eyes darkened even more.
“Aveline, I’m sparing you because of the past year. Don’t push
me.”
“What do you want?” Aveline’s clear eyes stared straight at him. “Kill me? Go ahead!”
Meeting her tearful and defiant gaze, Lucas felt a sudden pain in his heart.
The tension between them was tangible as they st
of the hospital room.

Aveline smiled. “Lucas, I won’t divorce you. Now that your grandmother only recognizes me as her granddaughter–in–law, this divorce is even more impossible!”
Lucas’s entire demeanor radiated coldness as he suddenly stepped towards her.
Aveline immediately backed away. “What are you doing? Are you going to hit me? I warn you. If you hit me, I’ll tell your grandmother!”
Lucas was speechless.
He stared at her in disbelief, not understanding what this woman was thinking!
What was so bad about a divorce?
She could ask for any terms, and he would agree to them!
Lucas felt deeply annoyed, but he knew this frustration was not just because she refused to divorce him.
“Lucas.”
At that moment, a graceful middle–aged woman approached. It
was Yvonne.
She walked over, and upon seeing Aveline, she was first
surprised, then said, “You must be Lucas’s wife, Aveline Young, right?”
Aveline was taken aback. “You know me?”
Yvonne smiled warmly. “When we found Lucas, we saw you two together at the supermarket, appearing very intimate. We investigated your identity for Lucas‘ safety. I’m sorry for doing so without your permission.”

“You should go see Grandma,” Lucas said.
Aveline instinctively looked at him, feeling that he didn’t want her to get too close to his family.
Yvonne smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll go check on her.”
She pushed open the door and walked in. Seeing Aveline through the crack in the door, Barbara immediately reached out.
Granddaughter–in–law, come here.”
Yvonne was surprised. “Mom, you know Aveline?”
Barbara nodded. “Of course, I know her. She’s the wife of my
third grandson, my granddaughter–in–law!”
Aveline couldn’t help but smile. Seeing Lucas’s darkened face, she couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
Lucas was speechless.
This infuriating woman!
With Barbara and Yvonne there, Lucas couldn’t react. He had to return to the room with Aveline.
Yvonne smiled and said, “It’s fate that Mom got lost and met Aveline. Lucas, you should come home for dinner with Aveline tonight and introduce her to the family.”
“There’s no need,” Lucas replied coldly. “We won’t be going back, ”
Yvonne was puzzled. “Why?”
Lucas said harshly, “We’ll be divorcing soon.”
