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

Aveline felt a surge of frustration building up inside her.

Lucas was so unpredictable!

However, she couldn't afford to give up now-not when things were still unresolved. Especially after her conversation with Ruth today, the guilt and responsibility weighed even heavier on her. If it weren't for her, Ruth wouldn't have suffered so much.

Exhaling slowly, Aveline asked, "Lucas, why don't you want to talk to me? Is it something I said? Should I change the way I speak?"

Lucas raised an eyebrow, clearly annoyed. He was starting to think he should limit her time with Selena-she was definitely picking up some bad habits.

"Uh..." Aveline let out a soft gasp, caught off guard by his sudden move.

Lucas stared at her intensely. "Go ahead, change it. Let's see."

"I..." Aveline started to speak but stopped short when she met his gaze. The words seemed to stick in her throat as if she couldn't figure out what to say next. His gaze looked too dangerous.

"What's the matter? Where's that confidence you had just now?" Lucas sneered, his voice dripping with mockery.
