Semua Bab After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back: Bab 891 - Bab 900

Lucas glanced at Maria with an amused smirk. "You’re really pushing it. Trying to scam a pregnant woman? How impressive."Unfazed, Maria kept her hand out. "Doesn’t matter. I got bumped, so you owe me compensation."Lucas raised an eyebrow, his voice calm and teasing. "How about I compensate you with no vacation for the next two years? Sound good?"Maria's smile instantly faded as she turned to Aveline. "Aveline, look at him..."Aveline, clearly enjoying the exchange, chuckled. "And this is why he's your boss and not the other way around."Maria sighed dramatically. "Unbelievable. You two are ganging up on me now!"She turned to Sidney, her eyes filled with mock sorrow, clearly fishing for some comfort. But Sidney pretended not to notice, walking straight to Aveline and handing her a small box. "Congratulations. These are some little gifts I picked out for the baby. I hope both you and the baby will like them."Aveline smiled warmly as she took the box. "Thank you, we’ll love it."“Wha

Lucas had already made his way back to Aveline's side, taking her hand with a playful smile. "Ave, do you feel like you need my company? Do you want me by your side all the time?"Aveline, who had witnessed the whole exchange, simply stared at him, speechless. Could this man be any more shameless?Aaron approached with a look of disdain. "Lucas, have you no shame? You'll say anything to avoid grilling. Aren’t you afraid your son will grow up and laugh at you?"Without missing a beat, Lucas replied, "My daughter wouldn’t laugh at me."Aaron was momentarily stunned. Daughter?He hadn’t even confirmed the baby’s gender, and yet Lucas was already claiming it was a girl."Your daughter, huh? You sure about that?" Aaron scoffed. "Do you even deserve one?"Lucas remained unfazed. "Of course I do. I make all this money just for my daughter to spend, so it has to be a girl."At that moment, Aveline chimed in, her voice soft but teasing, "Well, I think your daughter would love to taste the bar

Nearby, Gernard glanced at Gavin and quietly asked, "What's going on? Is Dad still not here?"Gavin, watching Aveline walk toward Lucas, responded in a calm tone, "Dad said he didn’t want to witness this. His daughter just came back, and now she’s already getting married again—it frustrates him."Gernard clicked his tongue, a faint smirk playing on his lips, but said nothing more.On the other side, Maria held up her phone, watching as more viewers flooded into her live stream. She smiled slyly and whispered, "Everyone, you're witnessing a live proposal! Don’t forget to send your blessings!"Beside her, Sidney looked on, his gaze complicated as he watched Aveline. Memories of everything that had happened since meeting her flashed through his mind. He was grateful to her—there had been a time when he even felt something deeper—but by then, it was already too late. When he finally realized how much he cared, Aveline had already fallen for Lucas, her heart completely devoted to him.A d

The proposal was over, and that same night, Maria and Sidney returned to Cloudflare City.Maria lived in a cozy and beautifully decorated one-bedroom apartment in the Waterfront District. As they arrived at the door, she turned to look at Sidney, her pretty eyes holding a teasing emotion."It's so late. Do you want to come in and rest?"Sidney’s handsome face showed signs of fatigue, and he directly refused, "I'm tired. I want to go home and get some proper rest."Maria chuckled softly, reaching out and slowly sliding her finger down his chest. Under her touch, she could feel his muscles tensing slightly."Do you think I’m inviting you in for something else? You’re overthinking it. I just want you to rest here."As her words fell, she stepped closer to Sidney, slightly tilting her head up, her crimson lips curving into a seductive smile."Of course, if you're up for something more exciting, I wouldn’t mind either."Sidney immediately grabbed her wrist, stopping her from moving further.

"You think I'm being unreasonable?" Maria asked, her expression full of mock surprise. "Do you really think I would falsely accuse you?"The manager, seeing Sidney’s lack of an apology and his confrontational attitude, quickly intervened. "You better apologize to the customer right now, then take her to the hospital for a check-up. If anything happens to the guest, you'll be held responsible!"Sidney’s gaze turned cold as he looked at Maria, noticing the faint smile of amusement in her eyes.Of course.She wanted to see him crushed, to have control over him, and eventually forced to bow to her will. This was all just a game to her.If, in the beginning, Maria had approached Sidney to complete Lucas' task, now, she was simply driven by the desire to see him broken."Fine, then call the police. There are security cameras from the kitchen to the dining area. I didn’t do it, and I stand by that." Sidney’s tone grew calm and cold. He pulled out his phone and was about to dial the authoriti
