After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 157
Aveline's figure suddenly swayed."What nonsense are you talking about?"Selena hurried over. "They've been married for almost a year. Lucas knows what kind of person Aveline is. He must know she wouldn't poison him!""Really?" Aaron gave a meaningful smile before opening the hospital room door and walking in.Selena frowned. "Hey, what do you mean by that? Explain yourself before you go in!" She tried to follow, but the bodyguards stopped her.As Aveline's friend, she wasn't allowed inside either."How frustrating!" Selena's face scrunched up in anger. She turned to see Aveline staring blankly ahead, her face alarmingly pale."Ave, don't listen to his nonsense. He's just trying to scare you!" Selena said quickly.Aveline shook her head. "He's not lying. It's possible that Lucas could hate me."Selena was confused. "How could that be? Before he regained his memory, he loved you so much. Even now, with his memory back, those feelings haven't vanished. He should know your character."Ave

Aveline pushed Sharon aside and rushed in."You can't go in!" Sharon tried to grab Aveline, but Selena intercepted her. "What are you doing? Do you want to bump into me? Believe me, I'll fall and sue you for everything."Sharon's eyes widened in disbelief. "You..."Wow! This woman was absolutely unreasonable!Selena lifted her chin, keeping a watchful eye on Sharon.Meanwhile, inside the hospital room, Frederick, Yvonne, and Aaron were all anxiously watching the man on the bed.Lucas slowly opened his eyes. His handsome, sharp face was pale, and he looked unwell."Lucas, you're finally awake! You scared me to death!" Frederick sighed in relief upon seeing Lucas awake.Aaron, standing nearby, asked, "How do you feel?"Lucas’ sharp eyebrows furrowed. He still had the oxygen mask on, and his voice was muffled. "I'm okay."Yvonne said, "Lucas, it's such a relief that you're alright. You don't know how worried your father was. Your wife, Aveline, stood outside the room all night. But how di

"No need," Lucas said weakly with his eyes closed. "I don't want to see her, but she is still my wife. If she gets arrested, it will harm the Tudor family's reputation."Frederick snorted. "She almost killed you, and you're still thinking about her."Yvonne added, "Lucas, could there be some misunderstanding? I don't think Aveline is that kind of person."Lucas didn't say more, but his attitude was clear.Aveline clenched her fists, staring at Lucas's face. She took a deep breath and said, "I didn't poison you, Lucas. If you find out later that you misunderstood me, don't come looking for me. I won't forgive you."With that, she turned and walked out.Under the covers, Lucas' hand clenched into a fist.Just then, Sophia walked in, seeing Aveline's pale face as she left. She asked in confusion, "What happened?"Yvonne sighed. "Lucas says Aveline poisoned him."Sophia's eyes widened in disbelief. "How... how is that possible?"Frederick said, "Lucas, once you're recovered, divorce that w

Tears streamed down Aveline's face, and only then did she seem to notice them. She wiped them away with her hand, then clenched her fist."What's there to cry about?" she muttered.But the more she tried to suppress them, the more the tears flowed.Selena quickly hugged her. "Ave, don't cry. It's not worth it for a man like him."Aveline suddenly grabbed Selena's arm, her fingers turning white from the grip. "He doesn't believe me... How could he not believe me? When I took him in, he wasn't like this."He wasn't like this at all.He had lost all his memories, like a blank slate, curious about her but also wary.But he had never looked at her with such cold, suspicious eyes.Never!The present Lucas was a stranger who terrified her.It was as if someone else had taken over Lu's body, causing her immense pain.Selena patted her back. "People change. Men with or without money are different, too. Ave, you decided to divorce, right? It's time to let go."Aveline cried, her voice hoarse, "B

As soon as Selena thought of Aaron, she couldn't help but think of Lucas, that jerk. In her mind, anyone who could be friends with Lucas couldn't be much better in terms of character!Selena let out a cold laugh. "If you want to sue me, go ahead. I'm done with you!"With that, she hung up the phone and blocked Aaron's number.In the hospital, Aaron stared at his phone, baffled.Was he just a victim of misdirected anger?Lucas did it, not him. What did it have to do with him?Aaron sighed helplessly, then tried to send Selena a message, only to find out she had blocked him.Aaron fell silent.This woman was a bit too much!He let out a cold laugh and found another number, dialing it directly. "I need you to do something for me."...Afraid that something might happen to Aveline, Selena stayed with her at Maple Garden. However, in the afternoon, she received a call from her boss."Selena, I heard you hit Mr. Aaron?"Her boss' voice was trembling.Selena's face darkened. "How do you know
After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 162
Selena gave him a strange look. "Are you really that kind-hearted?"Aaron didn't respond, only looked at her with a half-smile.Selena thought for a while and finally calmed down. Clearing her friend's name was the most important thing now. If Aaron could really help, maybe there was hope."I'll help you," Selena said, noticing his disheveled belt. She moved closer and began to adjust it with her fingers.As she leaned in, a faint fragrance from her perfume wafted to Aaron's nose. He stared at her face and suddenly said, "Actually, you'd be a good fit for the entertainment industry. Have you ever considered it?"Selena finished adjusting the belt and stepped back. "I'm not interested in fame."When she moved away, the scent disappeared, leaving Aaron with a surprising sense of loss. His eyes flickered for a moment before he said, "My offer still stands. If you change your mind, let me know. I can make you a star within six months."Selena smiled. "Thanks."Aaron fell silent....Avelin

Aveline paused, realizing she had almost forgotten about the house. She shook her head. "I'm not selling it for now."Russell nodded, his eyes fixed on her as if he had more to say.Aveline said, "I'll go now. Goodbye.""Alright," Russell replied, turning to walk back toward the group of men.Aveline exhaled a deep breath and headed in the opposite direction. Her only hope now was the test results. Until they came out, she couldn't clear her name. All she could do was wait.After walking for a few minutes, she heard the sound of a car engine behind her. Remembering what had happened earlier, she moved to the side to avoid any accidents."Beep!"The car slowed down next to her and honked. Aveline turned in surprise to see Russell's handsome, delicate face peering out from the car. He had one hand resting on the window, smiling slightly. "Get in. I'll give you a ride."Aveline was taken aback. She had thought he left, but it turned out he had gone to get his car."Mr. Skyler, that's real

"Russ, why are you suddenly interested in the Tudor family's affairs?" the person on the other end of the line asked in surprise.Russell replied slowly, "The old man wants me to show some real results. I've decided to work on that."The other person was even more surprised. "Russ, you're actually considering going back to the Skyler family? I thought you weren't interested."Russell replied, "I'm interested now. Is that a problem?""No, no problem at all! Russ, just wait. I'll find out everything soon!"After hanging up the phone, a dark glint flashed in Russell's eyes. What exactly was going on?The image of Aveline's pale face flashed through his mind, and he tightened his grip on the steering wheel....Aveline had been waiting for two days, but the test results still hadn't come back. That morning, she went to work as usual, only to be surprised to find Desmond at her door.Aveline asked in confusion, "What's going on?"Desmond gave her a professional smile and handed her a docume

"Let… let me go!" Jolie struggled with all her might, but the drugs were quickly sapping her strength, leaving her powerless to break free.The man, too impatient to care, ignored her pleas and began dragging her toward the back exit."Hey! She told you to let her go. Are you deaf?" A sharp voice suddenly cut through the air.The man froze, startled, and looked up to see a girl standing not far away."Who the hell are you? This has nothing to do with you. Get lost!" He snapped, not recognizing Selena, his tone turning nasty.Selena’s expression grew colder as she took in Jolie’s disheveled state. Without hesitation, she stepped forward and slapped the man hard across the face, then yanked Jolie away from him."Letting yourself fall into the hands of this scum? Where’s your fight?" Selena said sharply.Jolie’s blurry consciousness flickered at the sound of her familiar voice. When she realized it was Selena, her tensed body finally relaxed, leaning heavily into her for support."Take me

Jolie watched Selena’s retreating figure and shook her head in frustration. What could she do? Selena’s emotional wounds ran deep, and no matter what Jolie tried, it seemed impossible to bridge the gap between them.Returning to the party, she glanced around at the crowd of men and women mingling with champagne flutes in hand, but her mind wasn’t on the event. She casually picked up a glass of champagne from a passing waiter and sipped it slowly.What she didn’t notice was a man standing across the room, watching her. As she drank, his eyes darkened, and he licked his lips suggestively.After finishing about half the glass, Jolie started feeling strange. Her body was growing weak, her skin hot and feverish, and a strange itchiness spread through her veins.Her brows furrowed in confusion. What was happening? She headed toward the restroom, but as she rounded a corner, her legs gave out, and she had to grab the wall for support to keep from collapsing."Did someone drug me?" she murmu

Maria looked at the two little ones, absolutely delighted, and then turned to Aveline. "I’ve got some happy news to share as well."Selena guessed, "You're pregnant?"Maria nodded. "That’s right."Selena gave her a thumbs-up. "Wow, that was fast! You said it and made it happen."Maria smiled. "I couldn’t fall too far behind. I need to make sure my kid has the best opportunities and chances, right?" With their babies close in age to Ethan and Emma, Maria thought it would be perfect for them to grow up together, maybe even become childhood sweethearts.She looked at Selena and asked, "Weren’t you eager at first too? Why haven’t you made any moves yet?"Selena sighed. "I’m not sure. Honestly, I’m a little scared."Maria reassured her, "Take your time, no rush."Selena got up and left the room, heading outside for some fresh air. Seeing Aveline go through the struggles of pregnancy and the dangers of childbirth genuinely frightened her. On top of that, she worried she wouldn’t be a good m

At first, the twin really did look quite wrinkly and not very cute, but as time passed, they started to fill out and became more and more beautiful. The baby boy had a calm demeanor, rarely crying or fussing. He spent most of his time either eating or sleeping, with large, dark eyes like black grapes, a high nose, a tiny mouth, and chubby, round cheeks full of baby fat.The baby girl, on the other hand, was much more lively and prone to fussing, expressing her displeasure whenever things didn’t go her way. She cried the most between the two.The baby boy was born first, and the girl was the younger sister. Every time, the sister seemed determined to make her brother cry, but she never succeeded. Once fed, she would calm down.“Have you thought of any names for them yet?” Selena asked, looking at Aveline, who was slowly recovering, while playfully toying with the little ones in the stroller.Aveline replied, "We’ve chosen some temporary nicknames, but we haven’t settled on their full n

Aveline said, "Braden is probably not interested."“Huh? Why?” Selena asked, confusion spreading across her face.Aveline explained, “Baron, Braden, and Maria all have a special bond with Lucas. No matter what, they wouldn’t betray him.”She paused for a moment, her thoughts drifting to Brian, the man who had always seen it as his duty to protect Lucas. She wondered how he was faring now.Selena shrugged. “Alright, I suppose. He’s helped me a lot recently, and if it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have handled everything so smoothly.”Aveline replied, “It’s all over now. Taking him with you wouldn’t really serve any purpose.”“True,” Selena agreed, nodding as she let go of the subject.She ended up staying in Larbor City for a month. One night, Aveline suddenly went into labor. The family rushed to action—though there was some initial chaos, they quickly regained control. Drivers got the car ready, calls to the hospital were made, and everything unfolded smoothly.At the hospital, Lucas h

To mitigate the impact of the incident, the Fletcher family arranged a marriage with the Skyler family, setting the wedding date for just one month later, a rather hasty decision. Aaron officially became the head of the Fletcher family, and despite any grievances Nathalie might have had, she didn’t dare voice them, keeping her frustration to herself.Selena, on the other hand, finally had some leisure time. With Aaron busier than ever, she felt bored and decided to visit Aveline in Larbor City.Aveline’s belly had grown quite large, and with just a month left until her due date, her feet had started swelling, looking puffy and rounded like little pillows. Seeing her condition, Selena couldn't help but remark, "Pregnancy looks so tough. I'm starting to get a little scared."Aveline glanced at her. "Are you planning to get pregnant?"As far as she remembered, Selena had never mentioned such plans.Selena nodded, then shared the idea she had previously about arranging a marriage between

Aaron held her hand and led her directly out of the room upstairs.Meanwhile, inside the room, Nathalie had someone forcibly separate the two entangled people. Ernest looked utterly disheveled, still trying to grab onto Lila and continue.Lila, now slightly regaining her senses, realized the situation. She let out a piercing scream, wrapped herself in the blanket, and cried out in distress."How could this happen? Why did it turn out like this? Why am I here? Mom, wasn't that bitch Selena supposed to be in this room? Why is it me? Why me!"The sensation in her body was undeniable, and seeing Ernest in his dazed state, she could already imagine how wild things had been between them. Worse yet, many people had witnessed it!This scene was supposed to fall on Selena!What went wrong?Nathalie hugged her, trying to calm her down, "Don’t get worked up, Lila. You can’t afford to get upset right now. It’s okay, mom’s here with you. I’ll take care of this."But Lila was inconsolable, sobbing u

The servant stood frozen in shock, unable to comprehend what had just unfolded. How... how could this have happened? How did Lila end up in the room instead of Selena?She distinctly remembered helping Selena into that very room and watching as the family doctor applied the patch to her ankle. The patch, once applied for more than a minute, should have released the drug into Selena's system, gradually taking effect. But now everything had gone terribly wrong.Pale and trembling, the servant knew that her role in this failed scheme had been exposed. There would be no good outcome for her. She began to retreat, hoping to slip away unnoticed."Leaving so soon?"A lazy, magnetic voice suddenly spoke from behind her.Startled, she spun around to see Aaron standing in the doorway. His tall, imposing figure blocked the exit, preventing anyone from leaving easily."I... I..." The servant stammered, unable to form a coherent sentence, trapped in her fear.Aaron’s expression remained neutral, b

"Such a big issue has to be cleared up, don’t you think, Aaron? What if someone is deliberately trying to smear your wife’s name?" "Exactly! We’ve all met your wife—she’s beautiful and sharp. There’s no way she’d do anything to betray you.""We need to open the door and clear up any misunderstandings before things get out of hand."The crowd voiced their concerns, their words filled with feigned sympathy, but their eyes gleamed with anticipation.Kendrick arrived just behind Aaron, and upon hearing the whispers, his expression darkened."Who said this?" The servant timidly raised her hand. "I... I did."His voice hardened. "Are you sure of what you saw?"Though visibly frightened, the servant nodded firmly. "I’m sure.""I don’t think she’s lying.”"Maybe it’s true. If it is, then she really couldn’t keep herself in check, especially at Lila’s birthday party. How shameless.""Unbelievable! With a husband like Aaron, she’s still not satisfied? I can’t understand women like that."A few
