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

Chapter 1102

"I... I haven't decided yet," Selena said hesitantly.

Aveline replied, "Take your time. There's no rush. You're in Larbor City now, and so is she. When you're ready, you can always go see her."

"Mm." Selena gave a soft hum of acknowledgment and ended the call.

When she looked up, she met Aaron's gaze. He was staring at her intently.

Selena's breath caught slightly. "What's wrong?"

Aaron reached out and gently brushed her cheek with his fingertips. "If something's troubling you, you can always tell me."

Without a word, Selena leaned into his chest, seeking comfort in his silent presence. Aaron wrapped his arms around her, holding her close without pressing for answers.

He had long since resolved to be with her and had quietly investigated her background. He knew her family life had been far from happy, though she had never spoken of it. He hadn't brought it up either, respecting her silence.

His earlier question had simply been a gentle nudge, hoping she might open up and feel better by sharing. But if she wasn't ready, that was fine.

He could wait. Even a lifetime, if necessary.
