After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 1094

Gavin released her, his gaze lingering on the flush that painted the corners of her eyes. For once, the edges of his lips curved into a faint smile.

He leaned down, brushing a light kiss against her earlobe, and murmured, "Tonight. My room. The third time."

With that, he let her go and walked away without looking back.

Jolie clutched the railing, her breathing uneven, her cheeks tinged with a deep blush. She bit her slightly swollen lips, glaring at his retreating figure. She was certain he had done it on purpose. She announced her relationship in front of everyone, only for him to demand that she fulfill their agreement—how infuriating!

"Boom!"

A deafening explosion startled her, and fireworks lit up the night sky. Jolie looked up to see colorful blooms bursting one after another over the ocean, painting the darkness with vivid, dazzling colors.

Guests began gathering on the deck to watch the fireworks display. Yet Jolie felt no joy, only a growing sense of chaos in her life. Everything was a tangled mess, and she couldn’t find a way out.

"Happy birthday."

Ian’s voice came from beside her. He approached with a gentle smile, standing at her side.

Jolie turned to him, offering a small smile. "Thank you."

The two stood quietly on the deck, the vibrant fireworks above reflecting in their eyes as they gazed at each other. From a distance, they looked perfectly matched.

Daisy observed the scene, her expression darkening with a trace of coldness.

Terence broke the silence beside her, saying firmly, "I don’t agree with them being together."

Daisy, however, replied with a measured tone, "Jolie has made up her mind. That’s why she chose to reveal their relationship tonight, in front of so many people. The Moore family knows now—we can’t easily intervene."

Terence’s face remained grim. "I won’t agree to it. When the time comes, we’ll find a way to make them break up. I can tell Mr. Cooper is interested in her. We must seize this opportunity and make sure she ends up with him. Gavin is the best choice—not just for Jolie but for our family."

In the entire city, Gavin Cooper was unmatched. For the Quin family, and for Jolie, he was the only option worth considering.

In the past, they wouldn’t have dared to entertain the thought. But with Gavin attending two consecutive Quin family events, their confidence soared.
