After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas)

Aveline looked at Lucas as if she had heard the most absurd joke, her face full of disbelief. "Lucas, do you hear yourself?"

If he was here to accuse her, he certainly had no right to do so!

Lucas's eyes darkened as he stared at her, his presence intense and oppressive. The air fell silent, the cold wind biting to the bone.

Aveline saw the shadow of gloom on his handsome face and directly asked, "Does Miss Winter know you came out to find me?"

Her tone was laced with sarcasm.

Such double standards. Where was the fairness in that?

Lucas's voice was icy, "You've always known about Sophia and me. You know why I'm divorcing you. But what's going on with you and Mr. Skyler?"

Aveline's temper flared. "None of your business!"

Anger flashed in her clear eyes. "Lucas, it's almost dawn. You might as well wait here with me. We're going to the lawyer's office as soon as it opens. We must get divorced today!" When her life was in danger, all she could think about was him. She felt completely hopeless. And now, he was full of suspicions just because he saw her with Russell.

It was laughable!

Lucas's face grew even darker. "So eager to divorce, then what? Marry him right away? Aveline, do you really think he'd want a woman I have thrown away?" "Slap!"

Aveline couldn't take it anymore. She slapped him hard across the

face.

"Lucas, I haven't wronged you!" Eveline practically seNWA don't owe you anything!

She couldn't bear to think about it!

But after surviving such a terrifying ordeal, instead of wings concern, she faced his constant questioning and suspiciond

What right did he have to be suspicious?

What gave him the right?

Aveline gasped for air, desperately trying to breathe in some fresh air, feeling like she might faint.

Lucas pressed his tongue against his check, a shadow of darkers crossing his eyes, Seeing Aveline crying so pitifully made his heart tighten as if gripped by a giant hand, "Are you afraid I'll drag you down?" His voice grew colder.

Aveline wiped her face with her hand. "Yes, I value my life. Being with you is too dangerous, and I can't handle it."

Lucas's expression darkened further, the shadow in his eyes deepening. The air around them seemed to grow older, his presence becoming almost tangible in its intensity. He suddenly grabbed her wrist and, with a chilling smile, said, "

You're so scared? Now I don't want a divorce anymore.

Aveline froze. "What did you say?"

Lucas stared at her intently. "You said it yourself, anyone who stays with me becomes endangered. Sophia lost a leg saving me, I can't let her risk her life. So, Aveline, I don'twant a divorce." "You're shameless!" Aveline's face was flushed with anger. She raised her hand to strike him again, but he grabbed her wrist.

"So, from today on, you'd better stay away from Mr. Skyler. If I see you together, I won't be happy," Lacas said coldly. He released her and got into his car, driving away.
