Xander and his group looked anxiously at Lucas.
“Mr. Tudor, we won’t dare do it again.”
“Mr. Tudor, please give us another chance.”
The group cowered like mice before a cat, all lowering their heads in submission.
Sophia smiled gently, keeping her gaze fixed on Lucas.
Lucas‘ expression was stern, his presence exuding a cold and dignified aura. He glanced at the group and asked, “Who are you?”
Xander and his group exchanged glances.
Desmond spoke up quietly, “Mr. Tudor, these are the people who troubled Mrs. Tudor last night.”
His voice was low, heard only by Sophia standing beside him.
A flicker of coldness appeared in Sophia’s eyes.
Mrs. Tudor…
So, they hadn’t divorced yet?
How infuriating.
Lucas, standing tall, his cold eyes swept over the group. “When you were troubling others, did you think about your families?
Xander and his group’s faces froze.
They all turned to look at Sophia.
Sophia’s smile faltered slightly. She had tried to leverage Lucas‘ concern for Leo, but
he remained unmoved?
Wasn’t he supposed to care most about Leo?

She opened the door, crossing her arms as she looked at Lucas.
He had misunderstood her that morning, and now, would he let these people off just because of a few words from Sophia?
If that were true, being his wife would be nothing but embarrassment.
Lucas‘ eyes brightened when he saw her, but catching the mockery in her gaze, a faint displeasure flickered in his heart.
But Lucas knew he had misunderstood her, and he was in the wrong.
He looked at Sophia. “How many more of his things do you have?”
“What?” Sophia was stunned, not understanding his question.
Lucas‘ tone became more mocking. “One item for one favor. How many more favors can you ask of me?”
Sophia quickly shook her head. “No, I didn’t mean…”
Lucas‘ tone shifted, “Who told you that I care about him so much that I’d want to take back everything that belonged to him?”
Sophia’s face turned pale, her hand clutching her bag tightly.
Lucas looked at Desmond. “Remember everyone here. I don’t want to see them in Cloudflare City again.”
“Yes, sir!” Desmond immediately nodded.
Hearing this, Xander and the others panicked.
One of them, eyes red with desperation, rushed over, grabbing Aveline by the hair and pressing a knife to her throat!
“Lucas, I didn’t do anything to

The sudden turn of events shocked everyone. By the time they realized what was happening, the man had already dragged Aveline to the window. The window was open, letting in a cold breeze.

Aveline stood rigidly, not daring to move!
Lucas‘ face was ashen, his gaze fixed on the man. “Let her go!”
The man’s hand holding the knife trembled, accidentally cutting Aveline’s neck. Blood began to seep out.
Sophia suddenly spoke up, “Don’t move! She’s Lucas‘ wife. If you hurt her, Lucas will never let you go!”
