All Chapters of After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

"Hey?"As Selena saw Aveline stagger to her feet and squint before walking towards the handsome gray-haired guy, a smile immediately appeared on her face."Not bad, not bad! Dump the jerk and start a new life!"Russell Skyler, holding an earpiece to his ear with one hand and adjusting the music with the other, exuded a devilish charm. When he smiled, it was utterly captivating. Several girls were watching his actions and screaming.Aveline pushed through the crowd and went straight to him. "Hey, handsome, want a drink?"Russell, still holding the earpiece, didn't hear Aveline clearly. He continued to manipulate the music slowly and casually, his eyes downcast."Why is he ignoring me?" Aveline's cheeks were flushed. Suddenly, she reached out and snatched the earpiece from him, putting it aside. "Hey, I'm talking to you!"The music was deafening, but the atmosphere around them instantly became deathly quiet. Everyone turned to look at Aveline, including Russell.No one had ever dared to

"Ave, stop drinking," Selena began, initially frightened, but now even more scared seeing Aveline in this state.Aveline pushed her away. "If I don't finish these, what if he doesn't let us go?" She said, downing another glass.Russell's nonchalant smile gradually faded, his gaze growing colder with a hint of interest. Hah! This woman had the audacity to snatch something from his hand earlier, and now she was utterly terrified. But from her demeanor, it seemed she was drinking to drown her sorrows."Enough!" Russell said impatiently.But Aveline didn't stop. Out of eight glasses, she had already drunk five."I haven't finished yet. No way." Aveline shook her head, her vision now extremely blurry, yet she accurately picked up another glass and drank."I said, enough!" Russell suddenly stood up, grabbed her wrist, and snatched the glass from her hand, hurling it to the floor. The glass shattered into pieces instantly.Aveline swayed on her feet. Selena quickly held her up. "Ave, you don'

"Mr. Lucas, the ginger tea is ready," the servant's voice came through."Bring it in," Lucas commanded in a deep voice.The servant placed the ginger tea on the nightstand, bowed slightly, and left the room, closing the door behind them.Lucas held Aveline down. "Ave, drink the ginger tea. It'll make you feel better."Aveline continued to struggle. "No, no, get away from me. I want to go home."Lucas said, "Drink it, and I'll take you home."Aveline turned her head and flopped onto the soft bed. "I don't want to go home. I want to live in a big apartment, like one of those 300-square-meter ones!"Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose in frustration. "This is it. You can stay here from now on.""Who are you?" Aveline asked."Look at me and see who I am," Lucas said, grabbing her chin gently.Aveline stopped struggling and stared at him for a moment before saying, "Oh, you look familiar, like my scumbag ex-husband."Lucas's frown deepened. "We haven't divorced yet.""It's happening soon,

"Let's go," Lucas said as he stood up, blocking her view.Aveline looked at him. "Huh?"Lucas looked down at her. "Aren't we going to the lawyer’s office?"Aveline lowered her eyes and didn't say anything. She got up and followed him out of the Tudor residence.As she glanced back at the expansive and luxurious villa, she couldn't help but say, "What a shame, I won't be able to come here anymore."She did like this place."You can still come," Lucas suddenly said.Aveline looked at him, meeting his dark, intense eyes. She smiled and replied, "No thanks. It would be awkward if I ran into you and Miss Winter getting cozy."Lucas's brow furrowed, and his demeanor grew colder.He stopped looking at her and got into the car.Aveline took the front passenger seat, but the driver didn't start the car.She blinked in confusion. "What's the hold-up? Let's go."The driver was sweating nervously. "Could you please sit in the back?"Aveline turned to look at Lucas. Sure enough, he looked even more

Aveline texted, “Selena, can you find out Brighton Enterprises' CEO's schedule?”Selena replied, “I'll try!”Aveline turned off her phone and waited quietly.In the CEO's office, Desmond explained the situation to Lucas and then asked, "Mr. Tudor, should we arrange a meeting with Brighton Enterprises?"Lucas replied, "No need."Desmond was taken aback. "But if this isn't handled well, Miss Young might lose her job."Since the incident happened under her watch, if she couldn't manage it and find the leaker, she would take the fall. Getting fired would be the least of her worries. If rumors spread that she leaked company secrets, she wouldn't be able to work in the industry anymore.Lucas looked at the documents on his desk, his expression calm and distant. "She can handle it."His tone was confident as if he knew her very well. And he did. With her personality, she wouldn't take the blame quietly.Desmond looked at him, feeling conflicted. They were about to divorce, yet Lucas still s
