Chapter 350

In the dimly lit comer, the atmosphere was thick with ambiguity. The scent of alcohol lingered between their lips.

Suddenly, Lucas stood up and pulled Aveline out of the private room. Outside, Brian stood guard like a sentinel, his eyes fixed on Lucas.

Lucas cast a cold glance at him but said nothing, leading Aveline out of Noble Color Bar.

Once in the car, things quickly spiraled out of control. Lucas cupped her face, kissing her with urgency and impatience. He pressed a button, and the partition between the front and back seats slid up, blocking the view from the front.

The backseat immediately felt more confined. Aveline, overwhelmed by his kisses, instinctively pushed him away.

Aveline's breath was erratic. How was she supposed to show effort? He had always been the dominant one in their encounters, both past and present, leaving her no room to resist.

Lucas lit another cigarette, and the backseat filled with the faint smell of tobacco. Unable to bear the scent, Aveline opened the window, letting the cold wind clear her mind a bit. She looked at him and asked, "If I satisfy you, will you help me?"
