Lucas's voice turned icy. "If you don't fire him, you can kiss your studio goodbye."

But Maria remained unfazed. "Go ahead, but if I lose my studio, Aveline loses her job. And once she discovers our connection, she'll never forgive you."

Lucas was momentarily speechless.

His subordinates had become defiant.

Maria, sensing her advantage, continued with a smug smile, "Boss, Sidney's actually quite decent. But don't worry, nothing you're concerned about will happen because I've got my eye on him." That seemed to put Lucas at ease.

Aveline drove back to Maple Garden, and sure enough, she spotted the man standing at the entrance of the complex.

Selena was inside, arms crossed. When she saw Aveline's car pull up, she quickly ran over.

Aveline parked the car, got out, and asked, "When did you spot him?"

Selena replied, "I saw him when I went downstairs to buy some snacks. He's been standing there the whole time. I even went over to say hi, but he didn't recognize me." Aveline glanced at her. "I don't think he knew you in the first place."

Selena chuckled. "Oh, right. But the way he looks reminds me so much of the first time I met that jerk Lucas."
