After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Chapter 54

Lucas' room was on the 9th floor. Just as the elevator was about to reach the 7th floor, he suddenly canceled the 7th-floor command.

"What are you doing?" Aveline frowned, asking immediately.

Lucas replied, "Everyone here knows we're married. It wouldn't be appropriate to sleep in separate rooms."

Aveline retorted, "I doubt anyone cares about your private life."

Lucas said, "Just in case."

By the time Aveline reached for the 7th-floor button, it was too late; the elevator had already stopped on the 9th floor. Her expression darkened.

Lucas walked out of the elevator and went far ahead before Aveline finally stepped out. However, she didn't follow him. Instead, she headed toward the stairwell.

Seeing this, Lucas tugged at his tie and called out, "Aveline."

She paused. "What?"

She didn't turn around, so she didn't see the deep, dark look in his eyes.

Lucas sighed almost imperceptibly and said, "There's no major conflict between us. Can't we just get along peacefully?"
