After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Aveline's brows furrowed deeper. Despite everything she had said, Annie still insisted on leaving. Was she really that afraid of her own home?

She needed to explain the situation to Annie's parents.

Given Annie's current condition, she was in no state to do anything; her injured arm simply wouldn't allow it.

She hesitated, struggling to get the words out, but finally continued, "They'll definitely try to extort money from you."

Saying this, she closed her eyes in despair. Trapped in a hopeless situation, she didn't want to drag an innocent person into her troubles.

Aveline's frown deepened. Could her parents really be this kind of people?
