After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 419
As Aveline came out of the restroom and passed by the elevator, Aaron happened to see her emerging from it.He was on the phone and, upon noticing her, raised his eyebrows slightly before saying, "Guess who I just saw at Club Nine?"On the other end of the line was Lucas, his voice cold. "Your dad?""Fuck!" Aaron cursed, then said, "Not my dad! Your precious little sweetheart!"Lucas' tone grew even colder. "Are you sure you didn't see wrong?"Aaron scoffed. "I'm not blind. She walked right past me. She looks like she's had quite a bit to drink. Tsk, she sure knows how to entertain herself at night."Lucas hung up immediately.Aaron looked at his phone. "What's his problem?"Despite his irritation, he was curious about who Aveline was drinking with, so he headed towards the room where she had disappeared.At the door, the music inside wasn't too loud, and through the frosted window, he could see that there weren't many people inside.Aaron slightly pushed the door open and peeked in.

Selena wore a fawning smile, but it was clearly fake.Aaron, unimpressed, lounged on the sofa and watched her unsteady hand gripping the wine glass. "If you spill that on me, you'll have to lick it clean," he said coolly.Selena was speechless.Damn it! How did this jerk guess what she was thinking?She immediately steadied her hand. "No way, I'm sincerely offering you a toast. I would never do something so disgraceful."Aaron chuckled but didn't push the issue further. He picked up his glass and clinked it with hers.As Selena raised her glass to drink, she felt a sudden dizziness, probably from having drunk too much earlier. Her hand wavered, and the wine spilled all over Aaron's pants.Selena fell silent.She stared in shock. "I didn't do it on purpose!"Aaron's face darkened as he slammed the glass onto the table. "Selena, you never cease to amaze me!"She cursed herself silently while cleaning up the mess.Selena pulled out a napkin to wipe him down. "I'm really sorry, it was an a

Aveline was stunned, looking at Sidney in confusion.She wanted to speak, but with the grape in her mouth, she had to eat it first.At that moment, a tall figure walked in.Aveline squinted, recognizing Lucas.She instinctively sat up straight, quickly chewing and swallowing the grape. Why was he here?Oh, right. If Aaron was here, it wasn't surprising Lucas would find his way here too.Lucas exuded a cold aura, his narrow eyes fixed intensely on Aveline's face as he sat down on the sofa."Is it sweet?" he asked.Aveline, slightly dazed from the alcohol, nodded instinctively. "Yes."Lucas' expression darkened, though the corners of his thin lips curled into a mocking smile. "Good. Pick one for me too."He looked at Sidney.Sidney, feeling the pressure, immediately placed the whole plate of grapes in front of him. "These grapes here are not bad.”Sidney sensed the tension. Lucas' gaze held a hint of menace, but he didn't act on it, leaving Sidney puzzled.Aveline finally swallowed the g

"Ugh!"Aveline hadn't noticed when Lucas shoved another grape into her mouth!If Sidney feeding her a grape caught her off guard, Lucas' action left her feeling deeply humiliated.Lucas was deliberately making things difficult for her!She spat the grape out immediately."Lucas, are you insane?"She struggled to get off his lap, not wanting to have such intimate contact with him at all.Lucas, however, wouldn't let her go. His eyes darkened with cold fury as he glanced at the spat-out grape. "Aveline, are you looking to die?"She ate grapes from another man, but not from him. Damn it, she was really testing his limits!Sidney stood up abruptly and walked over, trying to pull Aveline out of Lucas' arms. "Sir, can't you see she isn’t comfortable with what you’re doing? You can't force her!"Lucas' eyes were filled with murderous intent as he glanced at Sidney's hand on Aveline's arm. "If you don't want your hand, just say so."That look made Sidney feel the phantom pain of his hand bein

The suit jacket was draped over her shoulders, enveloping her in a strong, fresh scent."Aveline, this is the first and last time. If I catch you in a situation like this again, neither of us will have any peace."Lucas stood up, looking down at her, his eyes cold and devoid of any warmth.Aveline, covered by his presence, remained silent.Lucas turned and walked away without caring about her response. When he spoke, she had to comply, or he wouldn't make things easy for her! As for Sidney, his presence wouldn’t be welcomed in Cloudflare City anymore!Aveline followed him out of the private room in silence. As they entered the elevator, she suddenly remembered Selena and quickly reached to press the door open button."What are you doing?" Lucas asked coldly."I need to find Selena," Aveline replied."Aaron will take her home," Lucas stated.Aveline didn't trust Aaron and stubbornly insisted on going out to find her friend. Just then, her phone rang. She looked at it and saw that it was

Aveline hurriedly said to Sidney, "You should go back to work. You really don't need to worry about me."Seeing her discomfort, Sidney nodded. "Alright, if you need anything, you can contact me."Aveline thought, “Not talking to me right now is exactly what I need!”Under Lucas' cold stare, Sidney turned and left.Aveline looked at Lucas. "Aren't we going home?"Lucas's icy gaze fell on her, sending an involuntary shiver through her.He turned and walked away, and she quickly followed.The night breeze blew away any remaining traces of her intoxication....Aaron entered the restroom with a grim expression, looking down at the stain on his pants before turning to face Selena, who had followed him in.Selena wore an apologetic expression and bent down. "I'll clean it up for you."The spilled drink had spread a large stain across Aaron's thigh, especially noticeable against his white pants.However, her attempts to clean it only made the stain worse.Aaron's face grew increasingly dark.

"Why are you running?" Aaron looked at her with a dark expression."Why are you grabbing me?" Selena looked at him in horror. "Let go of me, you pervert! I'm telling you, I won't do anything with you, so just give up!"Aaron laughed in exasperation. "What are you thinking? Do you really think I'm interested in you?"Selena suddenly stopped struggling.What was wrong with her?He wasn't interested in her?She turned to look at him. "If you're not interested, why do you have an erection?"A flicker of surprise crossed Aaron's eyes; he hadn't expected her to say that."You...""What about me?" Selena raised her hand and pointed at his chest, speaking slowly and clearly. "Aaron, admit it. You've liked me for a long time, haven't you? Why else would you keep showing up in front of me? Once or twice could be a coincidence, but this has happened way too many times. Haven't you even thought about it yourself?"She felt her argument was spot on, her eyes sparkling with confidence as she raised

Selena felt the air in her lungs depleting rapidly; she was about to run out of oxygen!Aaron released her, giving her a playful bite, and sneered. "Mocking me? You can't even breathe properly. What an amateur."Selena was speechless.Her breath was erratic, her eyes slightly reddened from the intense kiss. She gritted her teeth and said, "You think your kissing skills are great? Kissing you feels like being chewed on by a dog!"The intimate atmosphere seemed to freeze.Aaron narrowed his eyes, watching her uneven breathing, and suddenly kissed her again."I'm going to make you surrender today!"Daring to question his skills? She must be tired of living!Selena refused to back down. They went back and forth, their breaths intertwined, more like a fight than a kiss.They emerged from the restroom just as the elevator arrived and stepped in.Selena pushed him away. "Wait a minute, I need to make a call."She suddenly remembered that Aveline was still in the private room.Aaron just stare

“What gossip?” Aveline's interest was instantly piqued, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Gernard.Gernard leaned in conspiratorially, about to spill the juicy details. “It’s about Brother. You won’t believe what happened today…”“Ahem!”Before he could finish, Gavin appeared, clearing his throat just loud enough to interrupt. He grabbed Gernard’s arm, pulling him away. “Let’s talk about the company,” he said, his tone leaving no room for argument.Gernard protested, “Brother, wait, I wasn’t finished!”Aveline, her curiosity fully ignited, took a couple of steps forward. “Hey bros, don’t leave me hanging! Finish the story first!”Without slowing down, Gavin replied, “He’s headed to South Africa soon. Work comes first.”“South Africa?” Gernard’s jaw dropped. “Wait, since when am I going to South Africa? I didn’t hear about this! What’s going on?”Aveline stopped in her tracks, equally puzzled. “South Africa? Does the Cooper family even have projects there?”Just then, Wilfried walked

"Got too much free time on your hands?" Gavin’s cold gaze fixed on Gernard.Unbothered, Gernard strolled over and patted his brother's shoulder, grinning. "So, what’s your plan now? I got a little bored and did some digging on the Quin family. Guess what? Turns out they’re Selena’s birth family. She left them ages ago to make it on her own, but the girl you were with? That’s Jolie Quin, the pampered princess of the family."With a knowing smirk, Gernard added, "Brother, I couldn’t help but notice—Jolie and Selena do look a bit alike. Could that be why you…?""Get lost," Gavin cut him off, not in the mood for Gernard’s teasing. He brushed past him, heading downstairs.Of course, that only fueled Gernard’s enthusiasm. "Hey, don’t walk away! I haven’t finished my gossip yet!" he called after him, but the conversation came to an abrupt end as they reached the main floor, where the guests were still gathered for the celebration....Aveline noticed Selena seemed a bit distracted and asked,

One of Jolie’s long, slender legs was exposed to the cool air, and Gavin’s fingers instinctively tightened, as if they could still feel the smoothness of her thigh under his grip. His gaze darkened, though his expression only grew colder. His sharp, chiseled features gave him a distant, unapproachable aura—a man who seldom smiled and whose demeanor warned others to stay away.He was cold, almost like an ice block."Debt’s owed," he said flatly, tossing out the two words before sitting on the sofa and picking up the phone to make a call.Jolie blinked in surprise, processing what he said. Debt owed?Was that something you could even keep on hold?But thinking about it, he probably didn’t need anything right now. So, if he wanted to leave the debt hanging, so be it.Stretching lazily, Jolie sat up and said, "Have someone bring me a change of clothes."With that, she pulled the blanket aside, slowly rising from the bed despite the discomfort between her legs and headed toward the bathro

As the effects of the drug finally began to fade, Jolie lay exhausted on the bed, her body drenched in sweat. Her skin, especially across her delicate shoulder blades, bore faint marks from their encounter and her breath ragged as it brushed against her own back. Her vision was hazy, and she barely had the strength to speak."I... I’m fine now... you can stop," she murmured, her voice weak and broken from the strain of what had just happened.The madness of moments before still pulsed through her, the aftershocks of it lingering in her body. She never expected that grabbing a random man for help would lead to this, nor did she expect him to have such relentless stamina.Yet, the man behind her didn’t stop. He didn’t respond either. His large hands remained firmly gripped around her slender waist as if he were trying to squeeze the very breath from her."Stop... I told you to stop, didn’t you hear me?" Jolie’s anxiety spiked as he continued. What was wrong with him? They’d agreed he was

Gavin said nothing and simply hung up the phone, his expression darkening by the second.Behind him, Jolie’s soft, pained whimpers filled the air. She was writhing on the bed, her delicate skin flushed a faint pink.Gavin clenched his jaw, tugging at his tie. It had already loosened from when she’d pulled on it earlier, and with a rough yank, it came completely undone. Frustration simmered beneath his calm exterior.Where was Selena? She was supposed to be finding help, but she still hadn’t returned.His frown deepened as he reached for the door, ready to leave."Please… help me…"Her desperate voice, laced with a hint of a sob, echoed from behind him. The softness of it hit him like a lit match to his chest, sparking a heat he wasn’t used to feeling. "Please… I’ll pay you… I won’t take it for free…" Jolie’s voice broke as tears streamed down her face. She was sobbing now, her words dripping with helplessness and shame, as if offering him money would somehow make her request more bear

"Stop moving," Gavin growled in a low voice.But Jolie, completely under the control of the drugs, was acting purely on instinct, seeking out what her body craved most. She didn’t register his words at all. Instead of stopping, she slipped her hand inside his shirt, feeling the hard muscles of his chest."Mm..." Jolie let out a soft sound, whether from the satisfying feel of his muscles or because the touch of his skin intensified the drug’s effects, it wasn’t clear.Gavin's breathing became heavier. He couldn’t stay here any longer—this drugged and irrational woman could do anything at this point, and there was no telling what she’d attempt next.Quickly surveying his surroundings, Gavin spotted a quieter route. Without hesitation, he carried Jolie out through the back door, re-entering the villa through another entrance. He headed upstairs and slipped into the nearest empty room, laying her down on the bed.Just as he moved to leave, Jolie, still hazy and half-conscious, sensed his d

"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
