After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 3

Lucas responded, “Let’s eat first.”

He gently pushed her away and walked to the dining table, placing the breakfast on it.

Aveline’s heart sank deeper into despair as she stared at his back, pain evident in her eyes.

She had stopped him from saying the word “divorce,” but his attitude was clear. He was distancing himself from her, not even offering a false promise.

He never used to be like this!

In the beginning, he just followed her everywhere, clinging to her. Later, when she decided to take him in, she taught him to read and learn sign language. His gaze on her became more focused.

No matter what she did, his eyes were always on her, as if she were his whole world.

“Lucas, you didn’t give me my good morning kiss.”

Aveline walked over and said, reminding him of the promise they made after they got together.

Lucas pushed the milk toward her. “Let’s eat first. I have something to tell you later.”

Aveline clenched her fists. “If I don’t eat, will you not say it?”

Lucas’s dark eyes fixed on her. “You heard everything.”

He was referring to what he said in the private room yesterday.

Aveline closed her eyes and asked, “Why?”

No matter how much she tried to hold back, everything was out in the open now. She couldn’t deceive herself anymore.

Lucas replied, “She’s important. I have to take responsibility for her.”

“What about me?” Aveline looked at him with a bitter smile. “What does our year together mean?”

As if she realized something, she walked up to him. “You got your memory back, didn’t you? You remember who you are, right?”
