When Aveline woke up, she felt something heavy on her body. Startled, she quickly turned to see what it was. Seeing that it was just Selena's leg draped over her, she breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, she thought it was Lucas...
Shaking her head, she wondered why she was thinking about that scumbag. Moving Selena's leg aside, she got up to wash.
After making a simple breakfast, she called Selena to get up.
Selena groggily sat up, stared at her for a moment, and then suddenly asked, "Do you remember what happened last night?"
Aveline was puzzled. "What happened last night?"
Yawning, Selena got out of bed and started telling her about the events of the previous night.
"Brian Cooper?"
Aveline paused after hearing the name. She didn't know this person.
Selena said, "Maybe he really was just a good Samaritan who saw us in trouble and stepped in to help. If we see him again, we should thank him." "Yeah, you're right." Aveline nodded.
They ate breakfast and left the house together. To their surprise, they encountered the good Samaritan at the entrance of the complex.
Mr. Cooper?" Selena, with her sharp eyes, spotted him and called
out.
Brian looked over, his gaze fixed intently on Aveline's face.
Selena immediately gave a meaningful smile. "Ave, it looks like
you've got yourself a little puppy!"
Aveline nudged her and then walked up to Brian. "I heard about what happened last night. Thank you."
Brian responded, "No need to thank me. It was the right thing to do."
Aveline smiled. "Whether it was right or not, you didn't have to help us. So, I still want to thank you."
Brian insisted, "It was the right thing to do."
Aveline's smile became a bit stiff. "Uh... okay, thank you. How abour I treat you to lunch? Are you free this afternoon? "No need," Brian refused her directly, looking intently at her. "I made a mistake before. I'm sorry. Please forgive me!"
He then bowed to Aveline.
Startled, Aveline jumped back, hiding behind Selena.
Selena was confused. "Uh... do you know our Ave?!!
"Yes," Brian nodded.
Aveline and Selena exchanged glances.
Aveline said, "But I don't know you'
"I'm Brian Cooper," he said.
Aveline was taken aback. "What?"
She thought he was crazy, so she wanted to leave quickly.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
"Uh... I need to get to work. Goodbye!"
Aveline had previously been stalked and harmed by a mysterious man, making her very wary of strangers.
Seeing that Brian seemed a bit off, she naturally didn't want to talk
to him much. She grabbed Selena and left quickly.
Brian watched her back, frowning in confusion. Was his apology not. sincere enough?

As soon as Aveline walked in, the phone on her desk rang. She picked it up. "Hello."
"Miss Young, please come to the president's office." It was Desmond's voice.
Aveline replied, "No time." Then she hung up the phone.
Desmond was speechless. He stood by his desk, cautiously glancing
at Lucas.
The phone had been on speaker, and Lucas heard Aveline's curt response clearly. A vein throbbed on his temple. Suddenly, he stood up and walked out. Desmond followed him, unable to help but think that Aveline was truly brave. Even with her account frozen, she still stood up to Lucas, like this.
