After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 594
Aveline’s expression grew serious as she asked, "Selena, don’t you have any other thoughts about this?"Selena took a bite of her chicken wing and replied, "What thoughts? I don’t have any. If he wants to marry for business’ sake, let him."Aveline frowned. "But what about the two of you…?"Selena laughed at that. "Oh, you’re worried about that? Don’t be. If he really goes through with this marriage, I won’t be involved with him anymore. The thing I despise most in this life is being the other woman."Aveline finally felt relieved. It was a great relief that Selena thought this way. Regardless of what Aaron decided to do, if Selena maintained this attitude, he wouldn’t be able to keep her tangled up in his life.Aaron didn’t have the leverage over Selena that Lucas did over Aveline.Seeing Aveline lost in thought, Selena said, "Alright, stop worrying. Those things aren’t going to happen.""Yeah." Aveline nodded, pushing the thoughts aside.After they finished eating, the two of them to

Aveline fell silent, realizing there was no way to resist the combined efforts of Sidney and Selena. She nodded reluctantly. "Alright, tomorrow it is."Sidney’s face lit up with joy, his eyes sparkling like stars, making it hard for anyone not to soften toward him.As the sky darkened and the last traces of orange faded, the lights in the neighborhood flickered on, and the sounds of laughter echoed in the distance.Selena suddenly remarked, "Why do I feel like we’re a family of three right now?"Aveline shot her a blank look before turning to Sidney. "She’s always like this—don’t mind her."Sidney’s face softened with a smile. "I think her personality is charming."Selena immediately puffed up with pride. "Did you hear that? Did you hear what he said? And you still want to ignore me? Admit it—you don’t love me anymore!"Aveline was speechless.She quickly changed the topic. "By the way, have you encountered any challenges at work recently? I noticed that Maria hasn’t been taking you ou

“Pfft…” Selena couldn’t hold back her laughter, bursting out at Lucas’s audacity.She glanced at Sidney and asked, "Do you think he's dreaming too?"Sidney offered a faint smile, keeping his reaction subtle.Lucas ignored the two of them, his intense gaze fixed solely on Aveline.The elevator doors had closed, and it continued its ascent."I never said I’d invite you," Aveline stated firmly.Lucas’ handsome face remained indifferent. "Oh? Well, it’s not too late to say it now."Selena suddenly turned to Sidney and asked, "Are all men this thick-skinned?"Sidney responded, "Not all of us."Selena rubbed her chin thoughtfully. "Or maybe it’s selective hearing? They just ignore what they don’t want to hear."Sidney remained silent this time, perhaps because there was some truth to it.Lucas’ sharp gaze shifted to Selena, who met his stare without backing down, even lifting her chin defiantly. However, Lucas’s imposing presence was overwhelming, and despite her initial bravado, Selena soon

Aveline smiled wryly. "Don’t say that. Our conversation gave me a lot of new insights too. We should definitely discuss and explore these ideas more often.""Absolutely," Sidney replied, his eyes shining brightly. Then he added, "I should get going now."Aveline nodded. "Alright, take care on your way home."She watched as Sidney stepped into the elevator. As soon as she closed the door and turned around, she found Selena standing behind her with a teasing grin on her face."What’s up with you?" Aveline asked, startled and confused by her friend’s expression.Selena crossed her arms, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "So, did you feel that subtle, romantic tension yet?"Aveline’s mouth twitched slightly. "You’re imagining things. We spent the entire time working on a design concept."Selena’s playful smile vanished. "How dull! If it were me, alone in a room with such a charming and shy guy, I’d definitely make a move."As if lost in her thoughts, Selena’s expression grew a little dreamy

The next day.When Aveline arrived at the studio, she was shocked to see Sidney at his desk, his face covered in bruises and his fingers struggling to type on the keyboard.She hurried over and asked, "Sidney, what happened to you?"Sidney looked up at her and managed a smile, though the effort caused his lips to twitch in pain, contorting his expression. "I'm... fine," he said with difficulty. "After I left your place last night, I ran into Mr. Tudor. He suggested we spar a bit, so I agreed. Don’t worry about me, I’m really okay."Aveline frowned. "Just a spar?"If it was just a sparring match, how did he end up in such a bad state?Sidney chuckled softly. " Yeah, it was just sparring. I’m really okay—it looks worse than it is, just some surface wounds. Please, don’t hold it against Mr. Tudor because of me."There was a hint of self-deprecation in his eyes. "In the end, it’s just because I’m not strong enough."Aveline pressed her lips together and then turned to leave. When she retu

Lucas scanned the information briefly before saying, "Make it clear—any hospital that accepts his mother will be considered an enemy of the Tudor family.""Understood!" Desmond nodded and left the office.Lucas picked up his phone again, glaring at the image that had irritated him earlier. A cold, disdainful glint flashed in his dark eyes.Later that afternoon, Sidney received a frantic call from the caregiver."Sidney, what do we do? Your mother’s been kicked out of the hospital! They said the medical bills have gone unpaid for too long, and they won’t take her back."Sidney shot up from his seat. "Where are you now?""We’re at the hospital entrance. Your mother’s passed out, but no one’s coming to help her. Sidney, what should we do?"Panic overtook Sidney as he quickly left the studio.As he rushed out, he nearly collided with Aveline. She stepped back and asked, "What’s wrong?""Sorry, something’s happened at home. I need to go," Sidney said, his face full of anxiety."Do you need

Russell glanced at her and asked, "Do you think this is just a coincidence?"Aveline lowered her gaze, her expression complicated. "I have a pretty good idea who’s behind this."When she first met with Sidney, he had already told her that none of the major hospitals in Cloudflare City would admit his mother for treatment, no matter how much he pleaded.In Cloudflare City, there were plenty of people with the power to do something like this, but only one person who actually would.So, she had called Russell.By moving Sidney’s mother to the Skyler family’s hospital, they were out of the reach of the Tudors. With Russell’s influence, Sidney’s mother wouldn’t be turned away again.She felt deeply grateful for Russell’s timely help but was equally saddened, unable to understand why Lucas was being so ruthless.Was he really that heartless?Russell studied her. "Aveline, if you keep going back and forth with him, the number of people he targets will only grow."Aveline didn’t respond, a fai

"You!"A flash of anger appeared in Aveline's eyes, but it quickly faded away. After all, she was the one asking for help. Even though the biggest villain was him, what could she do? He held the power, able to act as he pleased.Aveline softened her stance and said, "Lucas, I'm begging you, can you stop targeting everyone else?"Her tone was gentle, like a soft stream of water flowing over the heart, warm and comforting. She used to speak to him like this all the time. But it had been a long while since she last spoke to him this way.Lucas tightened his grip on her chin and suddenly leaned in closer. Aveline's eyelashes fluttered twice, but she didn’t pull away. She thought he was about to do what he usually liked to do, but unexpectedly, he released her and said coldly, "Make me dinner."Feeling relieved, she nodded. "Alright."He just wanted her to cook; it wasn't a challenge for her. She headed straight into the kitchen, using whatever ingredients were available, and started cooki

Lucas responded in a calm, low voice, “You won’t get that chance in this lifetime.”Selena huffed. “You better hope so!”She lifted her chin defiantly and then playfully winked at Aveline. Aveline smiled softly, a hint of exasperation in her eyes. When would these two ever stop bickering?Once they arrived at the mall, Selena dragged Aveline into a whirlwind shopping spree. Whatever caught their eye, they bought—no hesitation, no restraint. It felt exhilarating to indulge so freely!Lucas followed quietly behind them, occasionally making a few phone calls and handling work without missing a beat.After shopping all morning, the group started to feel tired. Selena led Aveline into a restaurant across the street.“I read reviews on this place, and they say the food is amazing. They’ve got some dishes from Cloudflare City too. It’s been a while since you’ve been back—want a taste of home?” Selena asked, grinning while flipping through the menu.Aveline nodded. “Yeah, I’ve been craving it

Daisy’s expression darkened slightly at Jolie’s words, but she held back from lashing out. “That’s all in the past. What’s the point of bringing it up now? You and Selena are sisters, after all. You should reach out to her more. Convince her to come back. She’s still part of the Quin family.”In recent years, both her parents, especially her father, had become fixated on reconnecting with Selena. Despite multiple attempts, Selena had kept her distance, and even after finally making contact, she barely exchanged a few words with them before cutting off all communication again. The more they tried, the further she drifted away.Jolie remained quiet, observing Daisy. She had no right to criticize her mother—after all, it was she who had always been favored growing up. The Quin family had never done anything wrong by her.“I understand. I’ll try,” Jolie finally relented, though the thought of facing Selena’s distant and prickly demeanor again made her uneasy. Perhaps, deep down, her sist

“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
