After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Hearing her words, Gernard felt an inexplicable discomfort in his heart, but he had indeed come with an agenda.

He was silent for a moment, then asked, "How are things between you and Lucas?"

Of course, that was his motive.

Aveline gave a silent, mocking smile. "Mr. Cooper, I'm genuinely curious-why are you so determined to persuade me to divorce Lucas? Selena is my best friend, my family, but even she hasn't been constantly telling me to divorce him." Gernard sighed quietly. His intentions were too obvious, and he wasn't surprised she saw right through him.

"Can we meet?" he asked.

Aveline replied, "Where?"

She was eager to hear what shameless things Gernard might have to say this time. That way, she could completely give up any hope for the Cooper family.

At noon, they met at a restaurant.

When Aveline arrived, Gernard was already there.
