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

Chapter 642

Seeing Selena's fierce defiance, Lucas' expression darkened even further, a coldness radiating from him as he spoke. "Leave."

He uttered the word with icy detachment, his entire presence exuding an intimidating chill.

Selena's body trembled slightly, her confidence wavering. She was just an ordinary person-how could she stand up to someone like Lucas? If he wanted to crush her, it would be as easy as swatting a fly.

But she couldn't back down.

She had to protect Aveline.

Taking a deep breath, Selena steadied herself. "Lucas, let's set aside all the pain you've caused Ave for now and focus on the divorce. Why did you deceive her? Do you even love her?"

Lucas' expression grew even darker, his eyes glinting with cold malice as he looked at her. "What happens between Ave and me is none of your business."

"It is my business!" Selena shot back, her eyes blazing with anger. "Because of you, she's unhappy, she's not the vibrant, cheerful person she used to be. What have you done to her? Do you even remember how she was when you first met her? You've lost the Aveline who was full of life and joy!"

"Selena..." Aveline tugged at Selena's sleeve, signaling her to stop confronting Lucas.
