After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas)

The butler noticed the servant returning alone and immediately asked, "Where is Mrs. Tudor?"

The servant hesitated but eventually repeated what Aveline had said.

The butler sighed heavily and glanced at the unconscious man on the sofa. Lucas' brow was furrowed, and even in his unconscious state, he kept murmuring Aveline's name. "Aveline, don't go. Aveline..."

But Aveline couldn't hear him.

Aveline went to the supermarket, bought groceries, and started cooking at home. While preparing the fish, Russell called her.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

She answered, "Russ, I'm cooking. Have you had dinner? Do you want to come over and join us?"

Russell smiled. "Sure, I haven't had your cooking in a while. I'd love to."

Aveline said, "Then come over."

"Alright," Russell replied before hanging up.

About half an hour later, Russell arrived with Selena.

Aveline stood at the door, smiling at Selena.

Selena pouted, then suddenly ran over and hugged her. "You didn't contact me for so long. I thought you didn't want me anymore!"

Her voice was choked with emotion.

Aveline quickly patted her back. "How could that be? I just had some things to figure out."

Selena hugged her tightly and said, "You've lost weight."

Aveline laughed. "Doesn't that mean my figure looks even better?"

Selena bit her lip. "I won't allow you to have a better figure than me. From today on, you have to eat properly!"

Aveline nodded. "Alright, I'll try to gain a bit more weight than you."

"Hmph, that's better!" Selena huffed, then wrinkled her nose. "What's that smell?"

Aveline's eyes widened. "Oh no, my soup!"

She quickly turned and rushed into the kitchen.

Russell, watching from the side, said, "Looks like what brought will come in handy today."

Selena looked over and saw him carrying beer.

Her eyes lit up. "We're not stopping until we're drunk tonight!"

Russell's charming smile, both soft and wicked, made him look even more captivating. "Sure, you two can drink to your heart's content. I'll take care of the aftermath." Selena patted his shoulder. "Russ, you're the best!"

Aveline finished preparing the dishes and brought them to the table. Selena immediately placed a can of beer in front of her.

"Drinking tonight?" Aveline asked, surprised.

Selena raised her chin. "Will you be drinking with us?"

"Yes!" Aveline nodded, her eyes sparkling.

Russell quietly ate, his eyes lighting up with each bite.

It was delicious!

Aveline looked at him and asked, "Russ, aren't you going to join us?"

"I'll have a little, but tonight is your night," he replied, opening a can of beer and taking a small sip

Aveline didn't press him further.

Selena clinked her glass against Aveline's and took a big gulp, finishing half the can in one go. She closed her eyes and sighed. "Ah, that's refreshing!"

Aveline frowned. "Slow down, no one's going to take it from you."

Selena opened her eyes, which were now red. "Aveline, you have no idea how hard these past few days have been for me. Just thinking about you being with that jerk Lucas makes me want to cry.

"He's hurt you so much, and yet, just because he saved you once, you're back with him? It makes me feel like you're so caught up in love that you've lost your mind. I want to crack open your skull and see what's inside!"

She clutched the beer bottle, tears streaming down her face as she looked at Aveline.
