Divorced

“You’re looking much better, Aveline, Yvonne remarked as she walked in, a warm smile on her face. Dressed in a high–end designer suit, she exuded an air of elegance and luxury!

Aveline was slightly taken aback by her visit and paused before asking, ” Is there something you needed, Mrs. Tudor?”

Yvonne pulled a chair over and sat at the edge of the bed, her smile radiating warmth. “You’ve probably heard about what’s been happening RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

with Lucas.”

Aveline nodded slightly. “Yes.”

Yvonne sighed. “I never imagined things would escalate like this between him and his father. But when it comes down to it, it’s all because Lucas refuses to divorce you. If he had just complied, none of this would be happening.”

Aveline’s expression remained neutral. “So, what exactly did you come here to discuss?”

It wasn’t as if the Tudor family was unaware of the situation between her and Lucas. She wasn’t the one clinging to the marriage; it was Lucas who refused to let go. If Yvonne was here to talk about that, then she was addressing the wrong person–Aveline couldn’t control what Lucas decided.

Yvonne’s smile softened even more. “I understand that you’ve wanted a divorce all along and that you no longer love Lucas. I happen to know a way that could help you finally break free from this situation.”

Aveline looked at her with a hint of curiosity. “What way?”

Yvonne glanced at Selena, hesitating

Catching on, Selena said, “I’ll go out and buy some fruit.”

“Alright,” Aveline agreed with a nod.

Once Selena had left, Yvonne leaned in slightly and spoke, “If you act decisively and without hesitation, Lucas won’t continue to hold on to you. My suggestion might be a bit extreme, but it has more than a fifty percent chance of success.”

Aveline’s brow furrowed in curiosity. “Please, just tell me.”

Yvonne studied Aveline for a moment before suddenly asking, “Aveline, your life was peaceful before Lucas came into it. Ever since you met him, you’ve faced all this turmoil. Have you ever felt an intense hatred for him?”

Hatred?

Aveline thought about it carefully, then shook her head. “No.”

Yvonne frowned at her response. “How could you not? After everything he’s done to hurt you, you should hate him–you should want to see him suffer.”

Her gaze grew more intense, almost pressuring Aveline as she spoke with a hint of persuasion in her voice.

“Aveline, think about it. If it weren’t for his constant meddling, your life would have remained peaceful. You wouldn’t have been hurt or targeted by others. Do you know why Darren tried to kill you? It’s because he originally wanted to kill Lucas, but when he saw you, he realized you were Lucas‘ weakness. That’s why you became the target. You should hate him for that.”

For a moment, Aveline felt her thoughts waver.

It was true. If it weren’t for Lucas, she wouldn’t have gone through all this suffering. Without him in her life, she would be free, happy, and not burdened by this suffocating weight…

Shouldn’t she hate him?

She had to hate him, right?

Memories of everything that had happened began to flood her mind. Aveline felt a surge of anger and frustration welling up inside, twisting her emotions into a tight, painful knot.

Seeing the struggle and pain on Aveline’s face, Yvonne pressed on,” Even now, he refuses to let you go. You don’t love him anymore, but he still won’t release you. That’s why you need to take revenge on him!”
