After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

"You!"

Selena glared at him, her anger boiling over, but she couldn't find the words to respond.

He was insufferable to the extreme!

She glanced at Aveline and noticed the slight frown on her face, a sign that she was uncomfortable. Deciding not to escalate the situation further, Selena stepped back, her expression filled with frustration as she watched Lucas.

Lucas brought the spoon to Aveline's lips. She looked at him for a moment, said nothing, and then took a bite.

There was no point in punishing her own body.

Seeing that she didn't refuse, a flicker of emotion passed through Lucas' eyes.

Aveline had just woken up, and she didn't have much appetite. After eating a little, she said, "I'm full."

Lucas then cleared the small table and gently lowered the bed.

"You..."

He started to say something.

But Aveline simply closed her eyes, clearly not interested in talking to him.

Lucas pressed his lips together, his expression darkening, a heavy tension hanging in the air around him.
