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

Chapter 840

Aaron paused for a moment at Lucas' words.

"Why do you need to find her?"

Lucas replied in a low, stern voice, "She better know nothing about this, or else..."

Aaron's tone grew serious as well. "Lucas, even if she does know something, you can't lay a hand on her. Regardless of whether Aveline would allow it or not, I certainly won't."

Lucas closed his eyes briefly before saying, "Bring her to me."

With that, he hung up the phone.

His only hope was that Selena knew where Aveline had gone or what she had done. Otherwise, he truly didn't know what he might do next.

Aaron replied, "Come out for a bit. I need to talk to you."

Selena, already frustrated by her demanding boss, felt annoyed. If she left during work hours, she would surely get scolded. She replied bluntly, "Whatever you need to say, either say it over the phone or wait until I'm off work. I can't leave right now." Aaron responded, "It's about Aveline. Can you really not come out?"
