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

Chapter 193

Aveline initially thought she wouldn't be able to sleep at the Tudor residence, but she fell into a deep slumber as soon as she lay down. When she woke, it was already the next morning.

After washing up, Aveline left her room and happened to see Lucas coming out of his bedroom. Their eyes met briefly before she looked away and headed downstairs.

Aveline paused and replied, "No, thanks. I'm running late for work."

Lucas remarked, "You have nothing urgent at work right now, so why rush?"

A chill crept into her clear eyes at his words. "Did you instruct Ms. Scoot to kick me off the Brighton Enterprises project team?"

Lucas's expression remained indifferent. "Yes."

Aveline let out a cold laugh. "Can't you just fire me directly?"
