Aveline glanced at the menu and raised an eyebrow. "Aren't you worried I'll make you broke?"

Selena waved her hand dismissively. "Order whatever you like! I'm not afraid!"

Aveline smiled and ordered without being wasteful, choosing dishes she actually enjoyed. She called over the waiter, handed over the menu, and as the sliding door closed, she caught a glimpse of a few people passing by outside. Their eyes met briefly, and Aveline fell silent.

Lucas, Aaron, and Lance were there.

What a coincidence.

The door slid shut, cutting off their line of sight.

Selena started talking about her new job, filled with excitement and hope for the future. Aveline listened quietly before saying, "I'm planning to resign."

Selena paused for a moment, then nodded. "That might be for the best. Once the court hearing is over and the divorce is finalized, you'll be free of any restraints."

Aveline replied, "Let's hope it goes smoothly."

Selena smiled. "It definitely will."

In the private room next door, Aaron looked at Lucas with a teasing smile, then turned to Lance and said, "This guy's definitely got a plan. Did you see that? Aveline is just next door." Lance, expressionless, glanced at him. "Are you two on better terms now?"
