After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 280

Chapter 280 

She reached out and touched her chest, feeling a faint, lingering pain within. 

She closed her eyes, her mind replaying the memories of the past days. 

Since Lucas regained his memory, this was the first time they had spent such a peaceful period together. 

Initially, she had been avoiding him, but fate had brought them back together. 

This time felt stolen–filled with arguments, sweetness, and heart- pounding moments. She thought that these memories would likely stay with her for a long time. 

Brian stood in a concealed spot, looking at the rundown motel, and dialed Desmond’s number. 

“What’s up?” Desmond asked. 

“Miss Young is staying at a motel,” Brian replied, glancing at Lucas, who was in a meeting, and lowered his voice. “Okay, I understand. Just make sure she’s safe.” 

Hanging up, Desmond waited for an opportunity to inform Lucas about. the situation. The meeting was wrapping up, and people began to file 

out. 

Lucas, seated at the head of the table, rubbed his temples and said, Desmond, order lunch.” 

“Yes, sir,” Desmond replied, reaching for his phone to call the hotel. 

At that moment, Sophia walked in with a lunchbox, her face adorned with a gentle smile. “No need, Mr. Blake. I’ve already prepared lunch.” 

Desmond glanced at Lucas for guidance. 

Laicas said, “You don’t need to do these things.” 

Sophia approached and began setting out the food from the lunchbox in front of him. “Lucas, I just want to do something for you, I may not understand business, but I can handle small tasks like cooking.” 

She sat beside him, gazing at him tenderly, “Lucas, two years ago, you told me you really enjoyed my coolding,” 

Lucas‘ sharp, handsome face remained impassive as his gaze fell on the lunchbox. Seeing the food inside, he furrowed his brows. 

Sophia noticed his expression and immediately asked, “What’s wrong? Is the food not to your liking? If you don’t like it, I can make something else.” 

“Sophia.” Lucas’s gaze shifted from the lunchbox to her face, his eyes dark and intense. 

Sophia’s fingers instinctively curled a little. “Lucas, what’s wrong? Why so serious all of a sudden?” 

Lucas said, “Have you seriously considered what I mentioned over the phone before?” 

The smile on Sophia’s face began to falter. She lowered her head. slightly and asked softly, “Lucas, you promised me this two years ago,” 

Her voice carried a hint of grievance as if she had been wronged. 

Lucas replied, “Two years ago, it was just a casual question, and you turned me down, didn’t you?” 

Sophia’s body stiffened. 

He was telling the truth.
