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

Gavin suddenly reached out, pressing his hand against the door, stopping her from closing it.

"Hmm?" Jolie looked at him suspiciously, unsure of his intentions.

His dark eyes bore into hers, studying her for a long moment before he finally spoke. "Jolie, you're really asking for it."

Aside from her parents, no one had ever dared talk to her like that.

Anger flared in her chest as she shoved at the door, wanting him out of her sight.

But Gavin easily pushed it open and stepped inside as though her resistance meant nothing.

"Hey! Get out! I don't want to see you right now!" Jolie snapped, her face turning frosty as she pointed toward the door. "Leave!"

Gavin ignored her entirely, strolling further into the room and dropping onto the sofa with an air of ownership.

"Go take a shower," he said, lifting his chin slightly, his tone leaving no room for negotiation.
