Aveline thought about Lucas' proposal for three days but couldn't come to a conclusion. That afternoon, she received a call from Barbara.

Aveline was quite surprised and immediately asked, "What's the matter?"

Barbara's aged voice came through, "What? After the divorce, you don't come to see me anymore? I admit I said some harsh things before and forgot some details. Lucas has told me everything; I wronged you."

Barbara replied, "Come over this afternoon. I'll send someone to pick you up. There are many things I don't understand, and I want you to explain them to me."

Aveline instinctively frowned. "But..."

Barbara interrupted, "Do I have to invite you personally?"
