After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 451
A chill spread from the depths of her heart as she struggled to control her emotions. Yvonne fixed the zipper and suddenly asked, "Aveline, did you see that basement?"Aveline shook her head. "No, I came over immediately after I got out. I was afraid something might have happened to Grandma."Yvonne replied, "It's good you didn't see it. If you had, you might have been scared."With that, she turned and left the dressing room.Yvonne left the bedroom directly. When Aveline walked out, her face was somewhat pale.Lucas, sensing something was wrong, walked up and held her hand, finding it cold."What's wrong?"Aveline pulled her hand away and lowered her eyes. "Let's handle Grandma's situation first. I don't want to be falsely accused."Lucas nodded but still sensed her resistance and reluctance. She hadn't been like this before. What had changed?Aveline turned to leave, but Lucas grabbed her and asked, "Where are you going?"She paused and said, "I want to see Grandma."Lucas replied,

At that moment, Lucas' phone vibrated. He took it out and saw a surveillance video.Maria had found the footage from the time of the incident.Lucas played the video and discovered it was just as Aveline had described: someone had pushed Barbara's wheelchair. However, due to the angle of the camera, it was impossible to see who pushed the wheelchair.The wheelchair rolled downhill until a masked attendant stopped it. The attendant kept his head down, revealing only that he was a tall man, but his face was unclear.Lucas frowned.He quickly composed a message and sent it out.Looking up at Aveline, he asked, "Are you tired?"Aveline pressed her lips together and said, "I want to leave."Lucas responded, "It's not over yet. You can't leave."Aveline looked at him, frowning. "What do you mean? Don't you believe me?"Seeing her agitation, Lucas replied, "I believe you, but we can't leave until this is resolved."Aveline still felt uneasy.But then she thought, even though he didn't trust

Lucas tightened his grip, causing Aveline to wince in pain. She looked at him, her eyes questioning what he was doing.His narrowed eyes grew colder, and he said calmly, "I suggest you abandon those thoughts. If you really hurt Grandma just to get a smooth divorce, not only will I not divorce you, but I will also change my social status to a 'widower'."Aveline was speechless.How did he know what she was thinking?Could this man read minds?Lucas seemed to read her expression again and said nonchalantly, "Your desire for a divorce is written all over your face. Do you think I'm blind and can't see it?"Aveline remained silent.Their voices were low, and Lucas was very close to Aveline. To outsiders, it looked like they were flirting.Frederick watched this scene, his blood pressure rising. He slammed the table heavily. "Lucas, are you even listening to me?"Lucas looked at him. "I am. I won't divorce her."Frederick's expression turned particularly ugly. "Even if this woman is after y

Lucas took out a remote control and pressed a button. A screen slowly descended from the wall behind the TV. He connected his phone and started the projection.Everyone could clearly see what happened in the garden. Someone pushed Barbara's wheelchair, and then Aveline hurried over, all captured clearly on video. The footage was short but clearly showed the facts.Lucas' tone grew colder. "This incident has nothing to do with Aveline. As for who pushed the wheelchair to frame her, I'll find out. If you come forward now, I might let it go. But if I uncover the truth, you'll end up in the basement."His deep, magnetic voice echoed through the living room, sending a chill through everyone present.Lucas looked at Frederick. "See? This is evidence."Frederick's face darkened further, humiliated by his son in front of everyone. He looked at Lucas with even more disdain.Lucas scoffed and then looked at the two servants behind the butler. "Didn't you just say you saw Aveline push the wheel

"It's him! It's definitely Leo! I would never mistake him!" Frederick exclaimed excitedly, gripping Yvonne's hand. "Leo is really alive!"Yvonne gently patted his chest and said softly, "Frederick, calm down. The image is too blurry. We need to confirm it properly. If it really is Leo, that would be wonderful."Frederick couldn't contain his excitement, his eyes shining brightly. "It's Leo. I'm sure of it."He turned to the butler and said, "Bring me the records of all the part-time staff hired today!""Yes, sir!" The butler nodded, equally excited.If Leo was still alive, it would be incredible news for the entire Tudor family. Everyone loved Leo—except Lucas. Despite Leo's affection for his younger brother, Lucas had always disliked Leo, opposing everything he did, seemingly just to spite him.The atmosphere in the living room shifted from tense to lively in an instant.Lucas watched coldly, a mocking smile playing on his lips. Aveline, sensing his unease, whispered, "Your brother m

It hurt! The sensation of having sex without any foreplay brought nothing but pain to Aveline. Her face turned pale instantly as she struggled even harder. She didn't want this!However, Lucas' eyes grew increasingly red. He gripped her wrists and waist, ruthlessly tormenting her. Aveline trembled in agony, tears streaming down her face. "Lucas, you're a bastard!"Lucas bent down to kiss away her tears, but his actions were far from gentle. He seemed like a different person altogether.After a long time...Aveline's eyes were swollen from crying. Only then did Lucas stop, his eyes darkened as he looked at the marks on her body, especially the fingerprints on her waist. He lit a cigarette.Aveline trembled as she gasped for breath. It took her a while to calm down before she got up and headed towards the bathroom. But as she tried to stand, her legs couldn't stop shaking.Lucas watched coldly. When she entered the bathroom, he suddenly noticed the bloodstains on the sheets. His expres

Aveline bit her lip hard, her swollen eyes filled with anger as she clutched the bedsheet tightly.Lucas felt a painful tightness in his chest. He took off his jacket and leaned over. Despite Aveline's resistance, Lucas continued as he pleased, disregarding her feelings entirely. This made Aveline feel a deep sense of sorrow. What kind of man had she fallen in love with?As the ointment was applied to her torn skin, Aveline's body flinched from the pain, and she gasped sharply.Lucas' lips pressed into a tight line as he quickly finished applying the ointment. He then said, "If you feel uncomfortable, let me know."Aveline turned her face away, refusing to look at him.Lucas went into the bathroom to wash his hands. When he came out, he saw Aveline struggling to get out of bed, intending to leave the room."Where are you going?" Lucas asked in a low voice.With her back to him, Aveline replied hoarsely, "I'm going to sleep in the guest room. I don't want to get hurt again."Lucas str

Aveline struggled even more fiercely. "Lucas, get off me!"But Lucas didn't move. He didn't apply much force to her hand, just held her tighter, his breath growing heavier. Aveline's face flushed deeply as his heavy breathing near her ear stimulated her nerves. She turned her head and bit his shoulder.Lucas grunted, his breath becoming even more erratic.After a long while...He carried her to the bathroom, looking at the marks on her nightgown, his eyes darkened, though his handsome face remained indifferent."I’m not crippled. I can wash myself," Aveline said coldly.Lucas stared at her for a moment before turning to leave.The moment the door closed, Aveline ripped off the nightgown and threw it straight into the trash. She finished washing up and put on a bathrobe, relieved to find Lucas was not in the bedroom when she returned.After changing clothes, she went downstairs. The butler said, "Ma'am, breakfast is ready.""Okay," Aveline replied, heading directly to the dining room.

“Got something on your mind, Dad?” Gavin asked, noticing Wilfried’s serious expression as he entered the room. His own demeanor softened a bit.Wilfried didn’t waste time, sitting down heavily on the sofa with a stern look. "What are you planning to do about what happened today?"Gavin froze for a moment, realizing that the whole situation had become an open secret within the family. His response was calm, though. "I don’t have any specific plans."At this, Wilfried’s expression darkened even further. "That won’t do. You’ve taken advantage of someone, so you need to take responsibility. I’ll have someone look into that girl’s background tomorrow, prepare the bride price, and we’ll go make the proposal immediately."Gavin blinked, his typically composed expression faltering slightly. After a brief silence, he replied, "Dad, I’m willing to take responsibility, but what if she doesn’t want to marry me?"Wilfried paused, momentarily caught off guard by this possibility. His gaze swept over

“Hmm, you’re right. I’ll talk to your brother and see what he thinks,” Wilfried said thoughtfully.Aveline nodded and went on her way....In the study, Gernard sat on the sofa, a mischievous grin plastered on his face. “Brother, why didn’t you let me finish? I was about to spill the best part.”Gavin ignored him and pulled out a document, handing it over. “Take a look at this. If everything’s in order, you’ll be leaving the day after tomorrow.”“What’s this?” Gernard blinked, taking the file and flipping it open. His eyes widened as he scanned the pages.He shot up from his seat, staring at Gavin in disbelief. “Wait, you’re serious? You’re actually sending me to South Africa? Do people live there? When did we even expand into that region?”Gavin, seated in his leather chair, remained cold and composed. “Recently.”Gernard’s face twisted in disbelief. After a long pause, he finally blurted out, “No way. I’m not going.”Gavin’s gaze flickered over to him, calm but stern. “You don’t hav

“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
After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 1039
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
