After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

"Do you really have to divorce me?"

Lucas stood in front of her, blocking any way out. His eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions as if there were countless words he wanted to say but couldn't.

Aveline tried to keep herself calm. She responded, "The court date is in three days, Lucas. What's the point of saying this now?"

Lucas reached out, gently caressing her face. "Aveline, do you really not love me anymore?"

She turned her head slightly, avoiding his touch.

His hand froze in mid-air as he saw the rejection on her face. He forced a smile, a mix of self-mockery and bitterness.

Though he was a towering figure, at that moment, he seemed enveloped in a faint aura of loneliness and sorrow.

He stared at her intently for a while before suddenly cupping the back of her neck and leaning in to kiss her.

"Mmph!"

Aveline had been on guard, but she was no match for him.

Her delicate lips were captured, and she struggled with all her might, but there was no escaping his hold.

With one hand, Lucas easily grasped both of her wrists, pinning them behind her back. Then, with a firm press, her soft body was pulled against his chest, forcing her to tilt her head up to endure the kiss. It had been so long since they had been this close.
