Lucas overheard the conversation, and his steps visibly slowed.

Aaron gave Lance a thumbs up and then joined the group heading to the hospital.

By the time they arrived, the burn on Lucas' forehead had already formed a small blister. The doctor treated it briefly and said there was nothing serious, and they were free to leave.

It wasn't a big deal, but Aveline had insisted on coming to the hospital to make sure.

As they exited the hospital, Selena clung to Aveline's arm, hesitating to speak several times.

Aveline glanced at her. "If you have something to say, just say it."

Selena looked back at the men following them, then tugged Aveline ahead a few steps until they were a good distance away. She finally stopped and whispered closely, "Aveline, are you having second thoughts? Are you thinking of not divorcing him?" Aveline's expression froze for a moment. "I'm not having second thoughts."

Selena, however, looked worried. "But you don't look like someone who isn't regretting it. Lucas just got a little burn and you were so anxious. If he were maliciously attacked and stabbed a few times, wouldn't you be ready to fight to the death for him?" Aveline pursed her lips, saying nothing.

Selena felt her point was right on target. Seeing the men getting closer, she lowered her voice even more. "Look, the date is almost here. You can't waver now, or all your previous persistence will just seem like a joke."

As she finished speaking, the men had already caught up.
