Aveline nodded. "I can stay with Selena or at a hotel. Cloudflare City is so big, and I have plenty of money. There's no way I won't find a place to stay."

"Heh!"

Something in her words amused Lucas. He chuckled softly and then said, " Maple Garden is already in your name. You can go back there tonight."

Aveline was surprised. "You acted that quickly?"
