After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 191
Aveline looked at his stern back, took a deep breath, and felt incredibly irritated.What on earth was he doing?He had talked about divorce earlier, and now that she had agreed, he refused.He even blamed her for Sophia's kidnapping.And now she was being watched by Darren.Life was a mess!After walking for a while, Lucas noticed Aveline hadn’t followed and frowned, turning back to look at her coldly.Reluctantly, Aveline got out of the car and followed him into the Tudor residence.“Mr. Lucas, Miss Young,” the butler greeted them respectfully.Lucas replied indifferently, “She is my wife.”The butler paused, then quickly corrected himself, “Mrs. Tudor.”Aveline frowned but said nothing; she was tired of his unpredictability.Following Lucas upstairs, they went directly into the bedroom.Aveline stood at the door, not entering, watching him take out the first aid kit. Seeing her hesitate, he said, “Come here.”Aveline curled her lips sarcastically. “Are you going to treat my wounds y

He stood there, watching her intently as if he wouldn't stop until she followed his instructions. Aveline briefly closed her eyes, amused that despite her disheveled state, he didn't seem bothered. Clearly, he wasn't picky.It wasn't the first time she had undressed herself in front of him, so Aveline didn't fuss. Her expression quickly returned to calm as she began unbuttoning her shirt. Beneath it, a white tank top with thin straps hung delicately on her elegant, pale shoulders, accentuating her frail beauty.Aveline set her shirt aside and looked up at Lucas. He averted his gaze from her, took the first aid kit, and sat beside her. Seizing her arm, he began tending to the scrapes. Aveline paused, surprised he was actually treating her wounds.He was so close now, the light casting his sharp, handsome features in deep relief. His long eyelashes and high nose bridge, combined with his slightly lowered eyes, gave him a distinguished air. He frowned at the injuries on her arm, his move

Aveline initially thought she wouldn’t be able to sleep at the Tudor residence, but she fell into a deep slumber as soon as she lay down. When she woke, it was already the next morning.After washing up, Aveline left her room and happened to see Lucas coming out of his bedroom. Their eyes met briefly before she looked away and headed downstairs.Lucas stared at her intently and, seeing she was about to leave, said, "Come and have breakfast."Aveline paused and replied, "No, thanks. I’m running late for work."Lucas remarked, "You have nothing urgent at work right now, so why rush?"A chill crept into her clear eyes at his words. "Did you instruct Ms. Scoot to kick me off the Brighton Enterprises project team?"Lucas's expression remained indifferent. "Yes."After the poisoning incident, he had her important work halted, assuming she was responsible and wanting to teach her a lesson.Aveline let out a cold laugh. "Can’t you just fire me directly?"It would spare her the daily grind of w

Aveline stood up to leave. Lucas didn't stop her, and only after she had completely left the dining room did his gaze lose its intensity.At that moment, the butler said, "Mr. Lucas, we have placed all those things in the warehouse. What do you plan to do with them?"Lucas responded indifferently, "Leave them for now."The butler nodded and said no more....Aveline left the Tudor residence, which was quite remote, requiring a two-kilometer walk to the nearest bus stop.After walking for about five minutes, she heard the roar of a car engine behind her."Beep!"The sound of the horn made Aveline instinctively glance to the side, only to see Lucas' cold, stern face."You've been out this long and only made it this far?"Aveline's face darkened. "Are you crazy?"Lucas sneered, stepped on the gas, and the car sped off, leaving her in a cloud of exhaust fumes.Fuming, Aveline stomped her foot and continued walking expressionlessly.Just as she was about to reach the bus stop, the car retu

"Mmm!" Aveline pushed against him with all her might, but his strength was overwhelming as if he intended to devour her whole. His intense, penetrating scent enveloped her completely, relentlessly invading her senses. After what seemed an eternity, she gasped for air as he finally released her, his nose brushing against hers as he observed her flushed, breathless state. He swallowed hard, then abruptly exited the car.Aveline felt utterly weakened by the kiss, unable to lift even her fingers. Anger and allure flickered in her eyes. This jerk! Yet, he hadn't let her out of the car, so she decided not to get down either. He wanted her to apologize to Sophia? Impossible!Unfortunately, Sharon witnessed their kiss and fueled by rage, quickly snapped a photo with her phone before storming off to Sophia’s hospital room."What’s wrong?" Sophia asked upon seeing her agitated state."I'm so angry! That shameless woman, flirting with Lucas right out in the open!" Sharon exclaimed, showin

Lucas' brow furrowed as he looked at her closed eyes and the face that was inches away, suddenly feeling a wave of irritation. Just then, his phone rang. He got up immediately and answered the call."Right, I understand."After a brief exchange, he ended the call and turned to Sophia. "Rest well, I have to go now," he said, then turned and left the hospital room abruptly."Lucas..." Sophia's face fell as she watched him leave without hesitation. She instinctively wanted to get out of bed and follow him, but his steps were quick, and the door to the hospital room had already closed.Her hands clutched the sheets tightly, her eyes flashing with a cold fury. How infuriating! Why wouldn't he kiss her? He could kiss that wretch Aveline, so why not her? It was all that woman's fault for seducing him—she despised Aveline!...Aveline was sitting in the car, trying to calm her breathing, when a knock on the window startled her. She turned her head to see Sharon standing there, looking unfr

This man knew no shame! After all that had transpired, he could still utter such callous words without changing his expression.Aveline took a deep breath and asked, "Not going to the company?"Lucas looked at her, feeling a bit disappointed but said nothing, instead starting the car. The atmosphere in the car was strangely tense.By the time they reached the company, Aveline had composed herself and entered the building without looking back. Lucas' gaze followed her slender figure, his eyes darkening as he noted her graceful walk, even in a simple shirt and trousers.It was already past working hours, so not many people were at the entrance. Aveline's arrival from Lucas' car went unnoticed. As she stepped out of the elevator, Gwen passed by, and paused, wanting to say something, but held back. Aveline keenly sensed the change in her attitude but didn't dwell on it.Aveline planned to resign. Since she had been removed from the Brighton Enterprises project team, she finished her cu

Aveline took a few deep breaths, calming herself before walking over to him. Once beside him, she asked stiffly, "What do you want?"Lucas directly grabbed her wrist, pulling her onto his lap. She was startled, her body tensing, but she didn't struggle.Seeing the coldness and reluctance in her eyes, an unexplainable fire ignited within Lucas. He grasped her chin, his voice deep. "Aveline, do you want to stay away from me?"Her long eyelashes trembled as she replied, "Yes."Lucas tightened his grip slightly, his eyes smoldering with intensity as his thumb brushed her lips. "Fine, I can approve your resignation, but you have to agree to one condition."A sense of foreboding swept through Aveline's heart. She cautiously asked, "What?"Lucas replied, "Sleep with me once."Aveline widened her eyes. "You're shameless!"He was supposed to marry Sophia and had already promised her, yet he was saying this to Aveline!Her eyes reddened with anger. "How can you do this to Miss Winter?"Lucas ign

After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 1139
It was Jolie’s first time visiting Cooper Enterprises, and she couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about the place.No, to be precise, it was her first time stepping into any corporate office. The Quin family also had company, but she had never visited, nor had Daisy or Terence ever asked her to.The private elevator for the CEO was stunningly opulent, its polished surface gleaming like a mirror, perfectly reflecting their images. Jolie’s heart began to race with an inexplicable excitement.The assistant glanced at her and said with a warm smile, "Miss Quin, there’s no need to be nervous. Mr. Cooper will definitely be delighted to see you."Jolie nodded and replied, "I’m not nervous."The elevator moved swiftly, and as they neared the executive office, Jolie adjusted her cap and mask, pulling them snugly to hide her face as much as possible.Meanwhile, near the adjacent employee elevator, Rosalie was holding a stack of files, ready to head downstairs.She froze the moment she s

"I’ll wait for you to come back," Jolie said softly before hanging up the call. The phone let out a soft beep, and the beautiful girl on the screen disappeared. Gavin frowned slightly, a hint of displeasure flickering across his face. She ended the call without letting him say anything. But as he replayed her soft words about waiting for him, the irritation quickly faded. When his assistant walked in, the first thing he noticed was Gavin staring at his phone, an unreadable smile tugging at the corner of his lips. The assistant froze, momentarily feeling as though he’d seen a ghost. Blinking hard, he looked again. Phew! It must have been his imagination. Gavin still wore his usual cold and impassive expression. "Mr. Cooper, these are the proposals submitted by the planning department," the assistant said as he placed the documents on Gavin’s desk. "Mm," Gavin acknowledged, immediately opening the files to review them. "Mr. Cooper, I’ve also finalized your schedule for

It sounded so much like Jolie! The thought stunned Rosalie. Jolie had a boyfriend, and she got sent abroad because of him. How could she possibly be in contact with Gavin, let alone on a video call with him? Still, an uneasy suspicion gnawed at Rosalie. If she could just take one glance at the woman in Gavin’s video call, she could put her mind at ease. Gathering her courage, Rosalie lifted her head and looked in Gavin’s direction, her gaze fixed on his phone. The next second, a figure stepped in front of her—Gavin’s assistant. With a cold stare, he blocked her view. Startled, Rosalie’s face turned pale. By now, Gavin had already entered his office. The assistant looked at Rosalie, his voice icy. “What are you trying to do?” “I-I…” Rosalie hadn’t expected to be caught so quickly. Her heart leapt into her throat as she scrambled for an excuse. “I just wanted to check if Mr. Cooper needed anything.” “That’s not your job,” the assistant replied firmly. “You may be the

Aveline held Joy in one arm and looked at Selena, asking, "What are you doing?" Selena replied, "Do you know what I just saw?" Aveline shook her head. "No idea." "Hickeys!" Selena pointed exaggeratedly to a spot on her neck, saying, "Right here. And I don’t think it’s just one spot. There’s probably a lot more below. Tsk tsk!" She clicked her tongue twice, shaking her head as she added, "Who would’ve thought Mr. Cooper could be so... ravenous." Aveline was amused and said, "Well, it makes sense. After all, he's already thirty, never had a girlfriend, and now that he finally does, of course, he’d go all out to spoil her." "Go all out to spoil her..." Selena drew out the words, mimicking her tone as she leaned in closer. "Ave, you’ve really been corrupted by Lucas, that scoundrel. You never used to talk like this." Aveline responded matter-of-factly, "I’m the mother of two now. What’s there to be embarrassed about?" "Tsk, tsk, tsk!" Selena made a playful, teasing expr

The corners of Gavin’s lips curved into a faint smile.The subordinate giving the report froze, his eyes widening in shock.What on earth?!Did he just witness that?Their notoriously serious and unsmiling boss—especially during work—had just smiled. In the middle of a meeting at his phone.Several others in the room noticed it too. Their gazes darted between each other in silent but frantic communication.What’s going on?Did Mr. Cooper just smile? At his phone? During a meeting?“Is he… dating someone?” everyone thought.“Ahem!”Gavin’s assistant cleared his throat, immediately breaking the silent chaos. First, it was a warning to the staff to rein in their imaginations, and second, it was a subtle reminder to Gavin, who was typing a reply.Even the assistant couldn’t help the slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.Who would have thought?The president of Cooper Enterprises, a man known for his iron will and unshakable focus, was texting his girlfriend during a meeting… and smilin

Rosalie said, “That must be tough for you. But why did Uncle and Aunt suddenly decide to send you abroad?” Jolie’s eyes flickered. So, her parents hadn’t told their relatives the real reason? How typical.Of course, they’d be too embarrassed to admit it. Shipping their daughter abroad just to force her to break up with her boyfriend? What a humiliating thing to confess. Jolie replied calmly, “I wanted to study abroad to gain some experience. It’s for my future photography exhibition. I still have a lot to learn.” “Oh, I see,” Rosalie responded, feigning understanding. Then she added, “Where are you staying? If I get the chance, I’ll come visit you.” “There’s no need, but thanks for thinking of me,” Jolie said lightly. “I’ll only be gone for a year. I’ll be back before you know it.” Rosalie smiled on the other end. “Alright then. If you need anything, just let me know.” “Sure.” After a few more polite exchanges, the call ended. Rosalie stared at her phone, gripping it

"Beep! Unlocked!" The electronic voice of the fingerprint lock sounded unusually clear in the quiet night. As soon as Jolie stepped through the door, Gavin wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into a warm embrace. His hot breath cascaded down onto her ear and neck, making her breath hitch instantly. She didn’t even have time to take off her shoes before she was swept up into his arms. His kisses were relentless, stealing her breath and unraveling her control as her emotions rose and fell with his every move. Before she knew it, she was seated on the entryway cabinet. Her dress had been pushed up to her waist, and her legs were forced to cling to his lean waist. His fingers trailed over her skin, leaving traces of his presence wherever they went. “Mm…” A soft whimper escaped her lips as his kisses marked her skin. Each mark, blooming like crimson flowers against her fair skin, painted a vivid contrast on her porcelain complexion. The room remained pitch dark, but

The lighting inside the cinema was dim, making it hard for Gavin to see Jolie’s face clearly. However, he could sense her stiffness. He glanced at her deeply before his gaze shifted back to the screen.The movie ended, and their hands remained intertwined the entire time. The warmth on Jolie’s cheeks had subsided as they stepped outside. Glancing at the tall, handsome man beside her, her heart skipped a beat uncontrollably.“Jolie?”At that moment, a voice called out from not far away. Jolie froze, not turning around. The voice carried a hint of uncertainty, and the person’s companion spoke in confusion, “Are you sure? Didn’t they send Jolie abroad?”The speaker was Jolie’s cousin, Rosalie Quin, from her uncle’s family.Frowning slightly, Rosalie replied, “But she really looks like her.”Her friend scoffed. “You must be seeing things. Wasn’t Jolie sent abroad? Didn’t you mention her family even cut off her cards? I still can’t believe she’d go to such lengths over a guy.”Rosalie lowe

Jolie fiddled with her phone, trying to find the perfect angle for a good photo. Less than ten minutes later, there was a knock on the private dining room door. “Come in,” Gavin said calmly. A man in a tailored suit entered, holding a professional camera in his hand. Jolie looked at him in confusion. “Who’s this?” Gavin replied, “He’s an excellent photographer, a first-place winner in an international photography competition. Let him take your photos.” “What?” Jolie blinked in disbelief, glancing between the man and Gavin. So, because she complained about his lack of photography skills, he brought in someone with top-tier skills? And not just anyone—a world champion? Oh, dear! Jolie was suddenly at a loss for words. She opened her mouth but struggled to find the right thing to say. After a moment, she stammered, “Uh… actually, it’s not necessary.” “Not taking pictures anymore?” Gavin asked. Jolie shook her head. “No, I’m not. I’m hungry.” Having someone else tak
