Their breathing became erratic.

Staring at the intricate ceiling, Aveline's eyes filled with tears. Lucas, I'm not your tool for venting your emotions. If you still appreciate that I saved you once, please let me go."

Please stop this. It was really painful for her. He was supposed to take responsibility for another woman, yet he kept entangling with her over and over. What was the point? Wasn't he the one who wanted a div

Lucas frowned. "Why don't you like it anymore?"

Aveline replied, "I just don't. Do I need a reason? Do I have to wait until it says it wants to be with someone else before I stop liking it?"

Lucas was speechless.

They seemed like things she had thrown away.

Aveline pointed at the items and asked, "Did you pick up the things I threw away?"

The air around them grew noticeably colder. Lucas' tone turned even icier. "Those are things I bought. What does it have to do with you? Do you really think I would pick up what you discarded and keep it?" Aveline blinked. Weren't those the things she threw away?

Why did they look so much like them?
