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

Chapter 866

Lucas handed Aveline her phone, watching as she powered it on and checked her messages.

Just then, Selena's call came through.

Aveline answered, "Hello, Selena."

"Aveline! What's going on? You left without me? Weren't we supposed to go together? How could you just leave without saying a word? Do you even consider me your friend?" Selena's furious voice came through, clearly showing how upset she was. Aveline held the phone a little further away from her ear, waiting for Selena to finish before softly apologizing, "I'm sorry. I really wanted to leave, but I didn't manage to. I'm actually just having breakfast outside right now. Do you... want to join me?" "Where are you?"

Another sharp shout came, followed by the call being abruptly ended.

Aveline scratched her nose, an awkward smile spreading across her face.

Lucas gently looked at her, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear. "Knowing you were planning to leave without telling anyone... why does that weirdly make me feel better?"

Aveline gave him a quiet glance. " Because you think I treat everyone the same. But flip that around doesn't it mean you're not special enough for me to treat differently?"
