She had no intention of repeating her past mistakes.

"I don't know you. Either I help you report this to the police, or I'm going home," Aveline said coldly.

The man continued to stare at her, his eyes resembling Lucas'. However, unlike Lucas' intense gaze, his eyes were filled with a pitiable innocence, as pure as a blank slate. Aveline turned to leave. "Let's go home."

Aveline responded, "Why should I care?"

Selena teased, "I thought you might take him in, maybe relive some old feelings. After all, situations like this don't happen every day."

Aveline sighed. "Do I look like I have that much free time?"

Selena chuckled, glancing back to see the man still standing there, watching them, looking every bit like a lost puppy.

"He's still looking at us," Selena noted.

Aveline got into the car. "You go ahead. I'll park the car."
