After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back Chapter 21
Aveline's lips tightened as she dialed Selena's number, but it kept going unanswered.They had just parted ways not long ago, so why would she go to Moonlight Tower?Recalling what she had said earlier, Aveline's breathing grew heavy. Confronting Lucas was definitely something she would do.Not daring to overthink, she hurried out and hailed a taxi to Moonlight Tower.Entering quickly, she found the lobby in disarray, shattered glass everywhere, as if there had just been a robbery."Where's Selena?" Aveline grabbed a waiter, asking urgently.The waiter pointed to a private room down the corridor. "In there."Aveline hurried over and pushed open the door, finding Selena being held by two bodyguards, her face flushed with anger."Let go of me!" She was still struggling incessantly.On the sofa, Lucas's expression was grim, his white shirt stained with blood, and his dark eyes staring lifelessly at Selena.His right sleeve was rolled up to his elbow, revealing a wound on his arm, while

"Selena is impulsive. If she did something to hurt you, I hope you won't hold it against her. I promise she won't do it again."Selena's eyes turned red instantly. "Ave, why are you apologizing? This has nothing to do with you!"Aveline ignored her and looked at Lucas. "Is this enough now?"Her face was slightly pale, and there was a shattered light in her eyes.Wasn't it just forcing her to comply?Why wasn't he satisfied when she had already complied with his wishes?She was truly blind.Why didn't she listen to Selena?The taste of reaping what one sows was truly unpleasant.Lucas looked deeply at her, feeling a wave of irritation. What did this matter have to do with her?A cold, harsh aura enveloped him.Sophia spoke up at this moment, "I'm fine, but Lucas is injured. I understand that Miss Quin is angry, but hurting someone is against the law. I hope Miss Quin won't do this again in the future."She looked at the two bodyguards. "Let go of Miss Quin."The two bodyguards immediate

Selena said, "I'm just so angry."Aveline sighed softly. "Your anger only brings suffering for both of us."Selena choked, a few traces of guilt appearing on her delicate face. "I know I was wrong.""Alright, weren't we going to have dinner together? This meal is on you," Aveline said."No problem!"Selena cheerfully agreed, linking her arm with Aveline's as they walked to the roadside.By the time they finished their meal, it was already evening.Selena wanted to go home with Aveline, but Aveline refused."You've been taking care of me in the hospital for so long. Go home and rest well, or else you won't be pretty anymore," Aveline said.Selena immediately covered her face. "Really? Am I not pretty anymore? That's unacceptable. I need to go home and take care of myself. Bye, Ave darling."Watching her leave, Aveline's smile carried a touch of helplessness.Returning directly to her apartment in the Waterfront District, she went upstairs. The light on her floor had gone out at some poi

"Six million and the house, don't you want them anymore?"Lucas looked at her with an emotion in his eyes that Aveline couldn't decipher.Aveline clenched her fists, staring at him, and suddenly felt deflated.She did want them.With money and a house, she wouldn't have to work anymore. She could leave this city, go far away, and make sure he could never find her.Oh... how naive of her. As if he would ever look for her.Keeping a cold face, she found the first aid kit, sat down beside him, opened it, and began disinfecting his wound."It hurts," he said softly.His deep, magnetic voice, slightly hoarse, carried his unique roughness, making it a real temptation to Aveline.Her breathing became slightly erratic, and instead of being gentle, her movements became more forceful.This time, Lucas didn't say anything.He just watched her quietly. Her expression was indifferent, her delicate features stunningly beautiful. Though she usually didn't wear makeup, she had a touch of purity about

Bastard! This big bastard!Aveline's body went limp, but she still struggled.Helping Sophia during the day and then coming to her at night. What was this about? Couldn't Sophia satisfy him?Sweat beaded on Lucas's forehead as he kept her pinned beneath him, his movements forceful and intense. "Ave, be good, or it will be unpleasant for both of us."Aveline's eyes were red. "Get out! Get out!"She pounded on him. "Don't you have someone to take care of? Go find her! Go!"Lucas didn't want to hear another word and kissed her again.In the room, muffled cries intertwined and gradually shattered as the temperature rose. The struggle continued.Late into the night, everything fell silent.Aveline lay with her back to him. "Add another two million to the divorce settlement."Lucas's breath grew heavier, but he didn't say anything.Aveline closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling. The closer she got to him, the more it hurt.The pain was cold and piercing, making her curl up involuntari

As the words fell, the air seemed to freeze.Aveline blinked, then smiled and pushed him away. "Lucas, this is pointless."Wanting a divorce and to sleep with her—where did he get such audacity?Aveline went straight to freshen up.Lucas's emotions, which had finally calmed down, became agitated again.By the time Aveline came out, Lucas had already left.Without any expression, she went to the kitchen, made some salad, and ate a few bites. Then she took out her phone and called Desmond."Hello, Miss Young."Aveline said, "I'm taking a day off today. Could you assist me?"Desmond was startled and then asked, "May I ask why you're taking a day off, Miss Young?"Aveline replied, "To get a divorce."Desmond kept quiet.He shouldn't have asked."Alright, I’ll help you with that.""Thank you."After hanging up, Aveline got up to wash the dishes.Then she started cleaning the house. She did a thorough cleaning, but even after the house was spotless, something still felt off.Her gaze swept o

Aveline was taken aback. "Where are we going?"Lucas, looking tense, opened the passenger door and pushed her inside, a sense of urgency in his actions.Once he got in the car, Aveline frowned and asked, "Where exactly are we going?"Lucas replied, "Grandma had an episode."Barbara? Aveline's mind flashed to the sweet old lady suffering from dementia, and she felt a mix of emotions.The entire drive, she stayed quiet until they arrived at the nursing home.Lucas walked briskly ahead, with Aveline following behind.They walked down a long corridor and arrived at a charming little building. Inside, several caregivers looked flustered, and from afar, they could hear Barbara's cries."Granddaughter-in-law, I want my granddaughter-in-law. Waaa, granddaughter-in-law..."Hearing this, Aveline was stunned.Patients with dementia often have poor memory. She thought Barbara had long forgotten her, but it seemed she still remembered after all this time.They quickly entered the building, where B

Lucas frowned and hung up the phone, then walked out.In the garden, Sophia had already approached Barbara. She held out a cotton candy shaped like a kitten. "Madam Barbara, look at this cute little kitten."Barbara's eyes lit up when she saw the cotton candy, but she didn't take it. Instead, she tugged on Aveline's hand."Granddaughter-in-law, you get me cotton candy. I don't like kittens; I like bunnies."From the moment Sophia appeared, Aveline had instinctively tensed up. But when she heard Barbara's voice, she suddenly relaxed. An indescribable feeling welled up inside her, making her feel a bit sad and close to tears."Okay, I'll get you one," Aveline said.Barbara smiled brightly. "My granddaughter-in-law is the best."Sophia, still holding the cotton candy, froze awkwardly. She slowly withdrew her hand and looked at Aveline. " Madam Barbara likes you very much."Aveline replied calmly, "She just happens to find me pleasing."Sophia smiled slightly, lowering her eyes with a hint
