After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 461
Aveline was startled, and the small cake in her hand fell onto the soft carpet."What are you doing?" she asked, her body tensing up. His proximity immediately caused her pain, revealing just how intense her body's reaction to him was.The bedroom was pitch black. They couldn't see each other clearly, but Aveline could feel Lucas' gloomy gaze fixed on her, his hot breath hitting her face, his overpowering presence enveloping her.Aveline hated this feeling. Being completely controlled by him with no escape made her feel suffocated."Lucas, what are you doing in the middle of the night?" she asked again when he remained silent.Suddenly, Lucas kissed her. The hot breath mixed with the taste of tobacco flooded Aveline's senses.Aveline let out a muffled groan and struggled. However, Lucas seemed to anticipate her resistance. He grabbed her wrists, twisted them behind her back, and pressed her into his chest.His kiss was scorching. Their breaths entangled in a chaotic mess...Lucas, li

"Lucas, are you out of your mind?" Aveline was speechless.She had done nothing, and yet he was suggesting arranging a room for her with another man. Was he out of his mind?Lucas stared at her intensely for a long time before saying, "Aveline, you can't accept another man, nor can you love another man. If I find out, you might not die, but that man will wish he was dead."His tone was serious, a grave warning. The possessiveness in his eyes was utterly undisguised.Aveline pressed her lips together, her gaze complicated as she looked at him. If he had shown this behavior before, she would have been overjoyed. But after everything that had happened, hearing these words from him only left her feeling indifferent.She lowered her eyes slightly. "Can I go wash up now? I've been busy all day, and I'm really tired."Lucas looked at her for another moment before finally letting her go.Aveline walked towards the bathroom.Lucas called a servant to clean up the ruined cake.When Aveline came

Aveline's mind was truly in turmoil. Soon, the sound of running water from the bathroom came, and she finally breathed a sigh of relief. Gradually, she relaxed, hugging herself.Just as she was about to fall asleep, the bed beside her dipped, and Lucas, his body slightly cool and damp from the shower, lay down next to her, hugging her tightly.Aveline didn't move or struggle.Lucas kissed her shoulder. "Good night, my wife."Aveline's eyelashes trembled, but she still didn't respond....The next day.When Aveline arrived at work, she saw that Sidney was already there. He was wearing a clean white shirt, looking bright and handsome, exuding the energy of a young man.Zoe was chatting with him, and Sidney was smiling as he answered her.Seeing Aveline, Sidney immediately stood up and walked over. "Good morning, Miss Young!"Aveline gave a faint smile. "We're colleagues now, you can call me Aveline."Sidney, a bit embarrassed, rubbed his nose. "Aveline.""Yes, good morning." Aveline no

Lucas didn't hang up after speaking. She could hear the sound of him getting out of the car, followed by the hurried footsteps.Aveline gripped her phone tightly, her hand repeatedly pressing the close button. This time, the elevator doors finally closed.Her heart, which had been in her throat, suddenly eased."The elevator doors closed," Aveline said, realizing her legs had gone weak."Don't get out until you reach the first floor," Lucas instructed."Okay," Aveline replied, keeping the call connected.Fortunately, the elevator soon reached the first floor. By then, the building was empty.When the elevator doors opened, she saw Lucas standing at the entrance and rushed out to him.Lucas immediately embraced her, his voice soothing. "It's okay. I'll find out what happened."Wrapped in his cool scent, Aveline finally relaxed, but a wave of lingering fear washed over her. Her nose tingled, and tears threatened to fall, but she held them back.Lucas held her as they left the building. O

Barbara's words left everyone in the living room stunned.Lucas's expression grew tense as he knelt in front of Barbara, asking, "Grandma, do you remember things now?"Barbara reached out and touched his head. "Of course I remember. I'm not senile. Weren't you planning to marry Sophia? Why didn't you bring her along today?"Lucas sensed something was wrong. Pointing to Aveline, he asked, "Do you remember her?"Barbara looked in Aveline's direction and shook her head. "No, who is she? Is she a new servant in the house?"Aveline felt as if she had been slapped hard. Previously, when Barbara was confused, she often mistook Sophia for a servant and treated her exceptionally well. Now, it was the opposite.Lucas stood up and said, "I'll take you to the hospital."Barbara frowned, her old face full of confusion. "Why go to the hospital? I feel fine."Lucas insisted, "Just a check-up. Please listen to me."Barbara was reluctant, but no one could stop Lucas once he made up his mind.Barbara wa

Lucas' face showed a hint of complexity as he calmly said, "It's hard to say for now; we'll wait for the doctor's results."Aveline nodded, acknowledging that there was nothing more they could do at the moment.Frederick glanced harshly at Aveline before turning to Lucas and saying, "Your grandmother's condition seems to have improved. You know her wishes—she just wants to see you and Sophia get married. You brought Sophia to her in the first place, and now with her request, you can't refuse."Yvonne interjected, "Frederick, but Lucas and Aveline have a good relationship. Isn't this a bit unfair to them?""Hah!" Frederick sneered. "A good relationship? Hasn't Aveline been wanting a divorce all this time? This is the perfect opportunity to finalize it, so neither of them has to waste more time."Yvonne immediately looked at Aveline with concern, worried she might be hurt by these words.Aveline, however, acted as if she hadn't heard, standing in the corner with her eyes downcast, her li

The next day.The two of them went to the hospital.Barbara had already had her breakfast, with Yvonne sitting by her side, chatting."Grandma."Lucas walked in, calling softly.Seeing him, Barbara's wrinkled face immediately lit up with a smile."Lucas, you’re here." Barbara grasped his hand and, looking at his handsome face, suddenly said, "Lucas, you seem different. You look more mature."Lucas' lips curved into a faint smile. "Isn't it good to be more mature?"Barbara nodded. "Good, of course, but I still miss the younger you, carefree, always following Leo around with a pout. Only Leo spoiled you. If it had been anyone else, they would've given you a good beating."Lucas’ smile froze momentarily.Barbara then noticed Aveline and asked, "Why is she here again?"Lucas said, "Grandma, she's my wife, Aveline."Aveline looked at Barbara. "Grandma."Barbara's brow furrowed immediately, releasing Lucas' hand. "Weren't you supposed to marry Sophia? I thought that girl was very reliable. W

Leaving the hospital, Lucas looked at Aveline. "Don't overthink it. She just lost her memory from the past two years."Aveline glanced at him and asked, "What if Grandma insists you marry Sophia?"Lucas stared at her deeply. "Aveline, you better get rid of that idea. I won't divorce you."Aveline couldn't help but sigh. "Actually, getting a divorce isn't a bad thing. I...""Shut up!"Lucas glared at her irritably. "Didn't you understand what I said? If you mention divorce again, I won't hesitate to lock you up!"His eyes darkened with a fierce glint, and a cold chill surrounded him.Aveline paused and stopped talking because she knew he meant it.She turned and walked away, her face growing colder.Lucas watched her retreating figure, his lips pressed into a straight line.He opened the car door and got in, his expression darkening even more.Just then, his phone rang. He took it out and saw it was a call from Maria."Speak."Maria was startled by his cold tone and swallowed hard. "Bos

“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
