After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 317

Chapter 317 

Her head throbbed as if it were about to explode! 

Looking at the unfamiliar surroundings, she remembered that Lucas had imprisoned her. She reached out to knock on the door, but her hand fell halfway up, and she started coughing violently. 

Struggling to get up, she leaned against the door 

After a moment, she found her phone and dialed Lucas‘ number. She couldn’t stay trapped here. She hadn’t done anything wrong. 

“Beep… beep… beep…” 

The busy signal sounded three times before the call was disconnected. Aveline tried again, but Lucas kept hanging up until he eventually turned off his phone. 

Aveline coughed a few more times, feeling utterly miserable. 

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Bonnie’s voice called out, “Ma’am, lunch is ready. I’m bringing it in.” 

Without waiting for a response, Bonnie opened the door. 

“Ah!” 

Aveline yelped in pain as the door suddenly opened, crushing her fingers that were still resting on the floor. The unexpected impact sent a jolt of agony through her hand. 

Bonnie gasped, “Ma’am, why are you sitting on the floor?” 

Aveline withdrew her hand, looking at the blood on her fingers. She frowned and said, “I need to see Lucas. 

Bonnie replied, “Ma’am, Mr. Tudor is busy.” 

Aveline used the wall to stand up. “Then let me out. I’ll go find him.” 

Bonnie pushed her back. “No, Mr. Tudor instructed that you can’t leave.” 

Already feeling lightheaded, Aveline staggered and fell from the push. 

Bonnie, seeing this, said, “Ma’am, I’ll leave the food on the table. Remember to eat.” 

With that, she left the room. 

Aveline’s head spun, and her vision blurred. She reached out to grab her phone, but darkness enveloped her again, and she fainted once more. 

Night fell. 

The villa was illuminated with lights. 

Lucas, dressed in a black suit and radiating a chilling aura, walked in and asked in a low voice, “Did she admit her mistake?”

Bonnie replied, “Ma’am hasn’t come out all day. She didn’t eat the food I brought in either.” 

“Heh!” 

Lucas let out a cold laugh. 

Was Aveline trying to protest by starving herself? Did she think that would make him feel sorry for her? 

His handsome face darkened as he headed upstairs. Opening the bedroom door, he found it pitch black inside. Standing at the doorway, he didn’t turn on the light but said coldly, “Aveline, you better behave and not do anything to upset me. Otherwise, I’ll make your life a living hell.” 

When there was no response, his face grew even darker. “Aveline, have you gone mute?”
