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

Aveline looked at Selena helplessly and said, "I still want to live a long life."

Selena slumped on the couch and said, "So what now? You can't get rid of him, but you can't accept him either."

It was a frustrating situation.

Aveline's mood lightened a bit as she walked toward her bedroom, saying over her shoulder, "One step at a time. No matter what, I won't let anyone around me get hurt by him."

Whatever Sidney's feelings for her might be, that was his business. She couldn't control that, but she could control herself and keep her distance from him.

After her shower, Aveline felt much calmer. If today didn't go as planned, she'd try again tomorrow-or the day after, or even the next month. No matter how cold-hearted Lucas was, she was determined to make him stop targeting Sidney.

In the days that followed, Aveline began making breakfast for Lucas every morning.

However, despite waiting at his door until she was almost late for work, he never came out.

Three days later, she finally found out that Lucas hadn't stayed at his place during that time.

Holding the lunchbox, Aveline's expression grew more complicated. This was his way-if he wanted to, he could easily avoid her. It took no effort at all; he just had to stay somewhere she didn't know about. Aveline turned around and stepped into the elevator.
