After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 371

Chapter 371 

Aveline’s body stiffened. She tried to dodge, but his hand clamped around her like a vice, preventing 

any escape. 

Lucas‘ kiss grew deeper and more intense, as if he wanted to devour her whole. 

Aveline couldn’t take it anymore and pinched his waist, only to feel solid muscle beneath her fingers. 

Lucas released her and chuckled softly. “Can’t handle it already?” 

His thumb brushed across her lips, his eyes dark and unfathomable. 

Aveline’s breathing quickened. “I’m hungry. I want to eat.” 

“Okay.” 

Lucas laughed quietly and said, “Wait for me a moment.” 

He went upstairs and returned about ten minutes later, now dressed in light–colored loungewear, looking more relaxed and less aloof. 

They sat in the dining room. 

The table was filled with all of Aveline’s favorite dishes. 

He had anticipated her arrival and had everything she liked prepared in advance. 

Aveline’s expression didn’t change when she saw the food. 

Lucas said, “Welcome back, my dear Mrs. Tudor.” 

Aveline’s eyelashes fluttered, but she remained silent 

Lucas stared at her overly calm face and suddenly pinched her chin, his eyes narrowing dangerously. Aveline, you know you have to honor the bet, right?” 

Aveline looked at him. “I know, that’s why I’m here.” 

Lucas‘ grip on her chin tightened slightly. “But what’s with this indifferent attitude? Are you dissatisfied? Or do you still want a divorce?” 

Aveline pursed her lips and pulled his fingers away. “Let’s eat.” 

Lucas said, “Let’s clear things up first.” 

Aveline looked at him. “I’m afraid if I do, you won’t feel like eating.” 

Lucas‘ previously joyful mood turned cold. 

“Aveline, you agreed to the bet, and you set the conditions. Now that you’ve lost, why are you giving me this attitude? Do you really think you’re irreplaceable to me?” 

Lucas glared at her, his eyes cold as ice. He hadn’t brought her back just to give him the cold shoulder! 

How did she used to treat him?

But now? 

All he saw in her eyes was indifference. 

It seemed like she had stopped loving him a long time ago!
