After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204 

Before he regained his memory, he often bought her flowers, warm tea, and small gifts… Though they weren’t worth much, it showed that he was thinking of her. Whenever he saw something beautiful, his first instinct was to share it with her. In his heart, she was always first. 

How could she easily forget or stop loving such a devoted Lu? 

A slight ache pierced her heart, and Aveline quickly reined in her thoughts, trying not to let her mind wander. 

That Lu was gone, killed by Lucas Tudor. 

Now, he was just Lucas Tudor–cold–hearted, emotionally distant, unpredictable. 

Aveline inserted the straw into the cup and took a sip. 

Indeed, it was warm, driving away the coldness in her heart. 

After half an hour, the driver’s side door opened, and Lucas, carrying a chill with him, got into the car. 

Aveline, holding her cup and looking at her phone, put it away when she saw him enter. Her demeanor softened slightly.

At her words, Lucas raised an eyebrow. When had he given her a cup of tea? But seeing the delight in her eyes, he chose not to expose the lie. Resting one hand on the steering wheel, his wrist, with its strong, defined bones, exuded an air of sensuality and strength.

Although he had saved her, it was far from enough to break the ice in their relationship. 

Seeing her silence, Lucas felt irritation rising again. He reached out and gripped her chin, forcing her to look at him. “What? You can’t even say a single kind word to me?”

He suddenly gripped her chin harder. 

“Aveline, why are you acting so ungrateful? I just saved you, and you’re still thinking about resigning?” Lucas‘ voice was deep and magnetic, but his tone carried a chill. 

Aveline looked up at him. “What else can I do? You’ve already agreed to marry Miss Winter. Do you want to keep entangling with me?” 

She gave a bitter smile. “Lucas, do you really want to act like a jerk?” 

about my engagement?” 

Lucas‘ face turned icy, his gaze dark as he stared at her. “Are you happy about my 

Aveline replied, “Whether I’m happy or not is irrelevant to you. I can’t influence your decisions. We’re like hedgehogs; the closer we get, the more we hurt each other. It’s better if we divorce sooner. If we separate, neither of us will get hurt.”
