All Chapters of After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back: Chapter 991 - Chapter 1000

The night was dark, and the ocean lay still. Selena glanced at the sleeping Aaron beside her before carefully slipping out of bed and heading to another room.Her ankle still hurt, and she moved cautiously. With one wrong step, she put too much pressure on it, causing her to wince in pain.Once she closed the door behind her, she pulled out her phone and sent a message to Aveline."Are you still awake, babe?" she typed.Aveline quickly replied, "I’m up. Isn’t it the middle of the night over there? Why aren’t you sleeping?""I’m exhausted, but I need to tell you something," Selena wrote back.Aveline immediately called her."Hello?" Selena answered quietly, glancing nervously at the door, afraid that Aaron might suddenly appear.Aveline, picking up on her cautious tone, spoke softly. "What’s going on?"Selena couldn’t help but laugh. "You don’t need to whisper. I’ve got that covered."Aveline laughed, too. "Oh, right. So, what happened? Spill it."Selena took a deep breath. "I told him

Aaron noticed the shift in mood and suddenly reached out to take the box back.Lila blinked in surprise. "Brother, what are you doing?"Aaron handed the box back to Selena and said, "I’ve told you before, don’t waste your effort on things like this. Some people might not appreciate it. Wouldn’t it be better to spend the money on something you actually like?"Selena smiled and replied, "I like diamonds too."Aaron glanced at her. "But I don’t think this bracelet suits you. Tomorrow, we’ll go pick out something better.""Sounds good to me," Selena said, smiling playfully. Who would ever complain about spending more money?Lila’s face paled slightly, her hands clenching the fabric of her dress. She pouted, "Brother, are you mad at me?"Aaron turned to her and said calmly, "No, I’m just teaching your sister-in-law not to spend unnecessarily."Selena fell silent.She bit her tongue and tried not to laugh.Lila wasn’t reassured. She wasn’t a child anymore—she understood the meaning behind

Selena’s eyes flickered briefly, and after only a moment of hesitation, she answered the call."Hello, Mom," she said, her tone calm but with a hint of detachment.She wasn’t Aaron—she couldn’t simply hang up on his mother. If she did, her position within the Fletcher family would only become more difficult.Aaron, hearing the conversation, glanced over at her, his gaze darkening. He moved to take her phone, but Selena gently stopped him, shaking her head. She then put the call on speaker.Aaron’s mother, Nathalie Campbell, spoke with a cold tone, "Have you both arrived in Cloudflare City?"Selena replied, "Yes, we’ve just arrived.""Come home now," Nathalie ordered without waiting for a response, abruptly hanging up.Her attitude was harsh, commanding, and indifferent as if Selena’s presence was little more than an inconvenience.Aaron’s expression soured as he gripped her hand. "We don’t have to go back. What are they going to do about it?"He pulled her toward the car, unwilling to

Aaron’s gaze shifted to Lila, cold and piercing, carrying an unmistakable sense of authority. The air grew tense under the weight of his stare."Lila, explain yourself. Is that really how things happened? When she gave you a gift, how did you react? During dinner, when you asked her those questions, did she even respond? “It was me who scolded you—why are you blaming her? And when you were going up the stairs, why did she grab your hand? Wasn’t it because you scratched her? Do I need to show everyone the marks on her arm for proof?"His voice was chilling, leaving no room for argument, his protective stance over Selena unwavering. The coldness in his eyes as he looked at Lila only deepened."Lila, what exactly are you trying to do? If you’re that bored, find something useful to occupy yourself with—get a job, anything. But stop causing trouble at home.""That’s enough, Aaron!" Nathalie snapped, glaring at him. "You know your sister’s health. She can’t work. How could you say someth

"Hmm..." Selena winced slightly from the grip on her cheek and gave Aaron’s hand a playful swat. "I haven’t even said anything yet, why are you in such a rush?"Aaron’s gaze remained fixed on her, intense. "You might as well say something. It’s better than saying nothing at all."Selena shot him a teasing, yet somewhat annoyed, look. "Fine. Would you like me to say I’d regret it?”Aaron’s expression darkened, but he let go of her chin, leaning back with a sigh. He closed his eyes for a moment, the weight of the situation heavy on his shoulders. "If you regret it, I can understand. So, what do you plan to do next?"The defeated tone in his voice, as if he’d already resigned himself to the idea that she might leave, wiped away any desire Selena had to tease him further. She grabbed his hand, her voice softening. "Stop overthinking. The Fletcher family isn’t going to let you go easily, and they definitely won’t stop coming after me. But instead of waiting for them to come for us, why don
