Lucas' face showed a hint of complexity as he calmly said, "It's hard to say for now; we'll wait for the doctor's results."

Aveline nodded, acknowledging that there was nothing more they could do at the moment.

Frederick glanced harshly at Aveline before turning to Lucas and saying, "Your grandmother's condition seems to have improved. You know her wishes-she just wants to see you and Sophia get married. You brought Sophia to her in the first place, and now with her request, you can't refuse."

Yvonne interjected, "Frederick, but Lucas and Aveline have a good relationship. Isn't this a bit unfair to them?"

"Hah!" Frederick sneered. "A good relationship? Hasn't Aveline been wanting a divorce all this time? This is the perfect opportunity to finalize it, so neither of them has to waste more time."

Yvonne immediately looked at Aveline with concern, worried she might be hurt by these words.

Aveline, however, acted as if she hadn't heard, standing in the corner with her eyes downcast, her lips pressed into a straight line.

Lucas ignored Frederick's comments. He was too preoccupied with his frantic search for Leo to care about his and Aveline's situation. It seemed like he really needed to find something else for Frederick to focus on.
