Chapter 405
An icy chill enveloped Aveline, leaving her sluggish yet alert.
“Who… who are you?”
She struggled, but the grip on her arm was like an iron clamp, causing her pain.
“It hurts!”
Aveline cried out in pain, struggling even more fiercely.
“Who are you? Let her go!”
Sidney, seeing this, immediately stepped forward to push Lucas away.
Lucas‘ handsome, sharp face was ice–cold. He looked at Aveline, who was clearly drunk, her eyes unfocused, her clothes half–wet, looking both pure and alluring.
She dared to come here and drink?
And made herself look so disheveled?
And there she was, cuddling up to some guy – it’s so inappropriate!
She had some nerve!
Lucas gripped Aveline tightly, his deep, magnetic voice devoid of warmth as he asked, “Aveline, take a good look at who I am!”
He pinched her face, forcing her to look up at him.
Sidney became even more worried upon seeing this and looked at Lucas. with increased vigilance. “Sir, she doesn’t know you at all. Don’t treat her like this, or I’ll call the police!”
Aveline echoed, “Right, I don’t know you at all, you scoundrel! Let me go!”
She pushed Lucas away with all her might and turned to Sidney. “Make him go away!”
At that moment, Lucas‘ face turned completely dark.

Sidney, frightened by Lucas‘ imposing presence, turned pale. This man was clearly someone of high status.
But no matter how high his status, he couldn’t hurt a girl!
Sidney stepped forward to block him “Sir, she said she doesn’t know you, so you can’t take her.”
Lucas looked at him coldly. “Who do you think you are?”
Sidney said, “I may be nothing, but I won’t let you just take her away!”
Aveline also struggled restlessly. “Let go of me, let go! I don’t know you, let go of me!”
Seeing this, Sidney, who had already felt a twinge of hesitation, resolved to stand firm. He blocked Lucas‘ path and took out his phone, preparing to call the police.
Lucas looked at the struggling Aveline in his arms with a cold gaze, unsure of what to say or do.
What could he say or do with a drunk person?
“Go ahead and call the police.”
Lucas looked coldly at Sidney.
Sidney saw that Lucas had no intention of letting Aveline go and proceeded to call the police.
“Sir, you should let her go. It’ll be awkward when the police arrive,” Sidney said, seeing Aveline’s resistant expression.
Lucas, however, looked at him coolly, his gaze making Sidney feel as if his

throat was being gripped, sending chills down his spine.
The police arrived quickly. After understanding the situation, they turned to Lucas, “Who are you to her?”
Sidney interjected, “She said she doesn’t know this gentleman.”
Lucas coldly responded, “Her husband.”
Sidney was taken aback.
The two policemen were also surprised and asked, “Can you prove it?”
Lucas pulled a marriage certificate from his pocket and handed it to the police.
Seeing this, Sidney’s eyes widened slightly.
He really was her husband!
He felt incredibly awkward for keeping Lucas from Aveline.
