Lucas, with his striking features and tall, commanding presence, stood out starkly from the rest of the bus passengers. His innate air of nobility seemed out of place in the crowded vehicle.

He held onto the handrail with one hand, the other casually tucked into his pocket, his gaze resting on Aveline, who sat quietly in her seat. A faint smile tugged at his lips, drawing the attention of several onlookers.

Two girls sitting behind them took out their phones to snap a photo, whispering, "He's so handsome. I take this bus all the time, but I've never seen him before."

Her friend chuckled. "Didn't you notice he's been watching that girl the whole time? They're clearly a couple!"

An older woman also noticed Lucas and approached, patting him on the arm. "Young man, do you have a girlfriend?"

Lucas raised his brows slightly, not expecting the sudden question. But his eyes fell on Aveline as he replied, "I have a wife."

The woman glanced at Aveline with a hint of regret on her face. Hearing Lucas' words, any hopeful thoughts others might have had quickly faded.
