After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Aveline glanced in the direction of the warehouse. Hilda was still banging on the door. She didn't seem worried about getting caught anymore, thinking she had Aveline cornered and was now acting with reckless confidence. Aveline hesitated for a moment, then walked over and opened the warehouse door.

Hilda's face was full of irritation. "Why haven't you sent me away yet? Aveline, do you not want to know who your real parents are anymore?"

Aveline's expression remained cold as she looked at her. "If you don't want to tell me, I can find out myself. I don't need you anymore. I might as well call them to take you away now."

At this, Hilda's eyes widened. "You... you can't do this, Aveline! I've raised you all these years. You can't be so ungrateful!"

With that, she shoved Aveline aside and made to leave, but a tall figure blocked her path.

Seeing this, Hilda took a step back, wariness in her voice. "You... what do you want?"
