After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back by Riverflow

Chapter 144

After leaving the hospital, Lucas called Aveline, but she quickly hung up on him.

His brows furrowed.

Their relationship had just begun to reach a delicate balance, but Sophia's sudden crisis had shattered it.

Lucas replied, "Send it over."

Maria texted, "No."

Lucas replied, "What?"
