Just then, his phone rang. Glancing at the screen, he saw it was his bodyguard calling. "Mr. Tudor, Miss Winter has been taken back by her family."

Aveline walked over, glancing at the simple breakfast he had prepared- omelettes and a few side dishes. Without hesitation, she sat down and started eating.

Seeing this, Lucas raised an eyebrow and asked, "How does it taste?"

Aveline replied, "It's average."
