After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Chapter 560

"What are you doing here?" Russell asked, frowning.

"Heh!" Lucas let out a laugh, as if he'd just heard something amusing, his eyes cold and sharp. "I could ask you the same thing-why are you here?"

Russell's smile faded further from his refined, handsome face. "I'm Aveline's friend. It's perfectly normal for me to visit her."

“Oh, and I'm her husband. So, it's just as normal for me to be here," Lucas replied calmly.

Russell's frown grew more pronounced. "But aren't you two divorced?"

Lucas raised an eyebrow. "Being divorced doesn't mean we can't still share a bed."

Russell's expression grew darker as he stepped forward, grabbing Lucas by the collar. "Lucas, you're already divorced. Can't you stop tormenting her and let her go? She's much happier without you."

“Is that so?” Lucas remained unfazed by Russell's aggression. Instead, he turned to Aveline. “Ave, is what he's saying true?"

Aveline trembled slightly before walking over. She addressed Russell, "Russ, why did you come so early? Is there something you need?” Russell noticed her pale face and immediately released Lucas' collar, his concern evident as he asked, "Aveline, are you feeling unwell?" She shook her head. "I'm fine."

Russell frowned. "But you don't look well at all.”

Aveline opened her mouth to say something more, but Lucas wrapped an arm around her shoulders, interrupting.
