After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

"Lucas, are you out of your mind?"

Aveline was speechless.

She had done nothing, and yet he was suggesting arranging a room for her with another man. Was he out of his mind?

Aveline pressed her lips together, her gaze complicated as she looked at him. If he had shown this behavior before, she would have been overjoyed. But after everything that had happened, hearing these words from him only left her feeling indifferent.

Lucas looked at her for another moment before finally letting her go.

Aveline walked towards the bathroom.
