After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 386

Chapter 386 

Selena looked at her, then suddenly shook her head. “Ave, what’s the point of explaining all this?” 

Aveline sighed. “Stop provoking him. You won’t win.” 

Selena fell silent. 

Though unwilling to admit it, she knew it was true, 

Cloudflare City was Lucas‘ domain. He could make her disappear without a trace if he wished. 

Aveline continued, “Selena, I will find a way to deal with my situation with him, but I don’t want you involved. I don’t want you to become my weakness.” 

Selena hugged her tightly. “But Ave, if I’m not there with you, you’ll be all alone. That jerk will take advantage of you.” 

Aveline’s eyes grew warm, and she sniffled. “It’s okay. Once I divorce him, even if he begs, I won’t even look at him.” 

“That’s the spirit!” Selena clapped her hands. 

The two of them strolled around the garden, reminiscing about amusing past events. 

Time passed quickly. 

When Aveline looked up, she saw Lucas standing on the balcony of the second floor, watching her. 

Even from this distance, she could sense his impatience. 

She lowered her eyes slightly and said to Selena, “I’ll arrange for a driver to take you back. You need to leave Cloudflare City as soon as possible.”

Selena nodded. “Alright.” 

Aveline called for a driver and watched as Selena got into the car and left. 

She stood there until the car disappeared from sight, then went back inside the villa. 

Aveline went upstairs and directly entered the bedroom. She looked at Lucas and said, “I need a study.” 

Lucas responded coldly, “You’re the lady of the house. You can use any room you want as your study.” 

After a pause, he added, “The room next to my study has good lighting.” 

Aveline turned and left, heading to the room at the end of the third- floor hallway, far from Lucas‘ study. 

She told the housekeeper what she needed, and they quickly arranged for it. 

As they were moving things, Lucas stepped out of the bedroom and saw that everything was being taken to the third floor.

“What are you doing here?” Aveline asked as she came up to check on the progress and saw Lucas standing at the top of the stairs. 

Lucas‘ cool gaze settled on her. “Your study is here?”
