After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Aveline let out a soft sigh, her breath forming a white mist that quickly disappeared into the cold air.

Was she getting entangled with him again?

She had wanted to keep her distance, but somehow, the ties between them kept growing, getting more and more complicated... It frustrated her to no end.

All she hoped for now was that after the divorce, there would be no more drama.

She just wanted a quiet, simple life.

Aveline got into the car, and Lucas immediately followed, sliding into the passenger seat. She didn't say a word, simply started the engine, and drove towards Maple Gardens.

By the time they got back, it was already nine o'clock at night.

Aveline had been running around all day and felt exhausted.

She yawned, glancing at him with tired eyes. "Can we do this another day? I'm really tired tonight."

Lucas' voice was low as he replied, "You don't have to do anything. I'll handle it myself."

Aveline was silent, her expression unreadable, as she opened the door.
