After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 402

Chapter 402 

Judy got into the car and left. 

Lucas turned to Aveline, his expression growing cold. “Don’t you have. anything to say?” 

Aveline’s expression remained indifferent. “Say what? Apologize to her?” 

A cold smile appeared on her face. 

Lucas found her expression extremely irritating, his sharp brows furrowing as the temperature around him seemed to drop several degrees. 

“Aveline, she’s a partner of the DK Group. You’re my wife. If you hurt her, it’s . as if I hurt her. How do you think we should resolve this?” Lucas said gravely. 

“I didn’t hurt her. She grabbed me, and I just shook her off,” Aveline replied, frowning. “Lucas, if you insist on believing I did it on purpose, I have nothing to say. But apologizing to her is out of the question.” 

Her attitude was cold, and her gaze at Lucas grew colder. After speaking, she turned and walked away. 

He stared at her back, his eyes growing darker. 

They hadn’t seen each other for a week, and not only did she not greet him, but now she wouldn’t even look at him. 

Heh… 

Was she hoping he wouldn’t come back to find her? 

A dark cloud seemed to hang over Lucas as his mood worsened. 

Aveline returned to the barbecue restaurant. 

Selena, who had initially left, rushed back after receiving her message and sighed in relief when she saw Aveline was safe. 

“Ave, you have no idea how worried I’ve been. I was afraid that jerk would side with that mistress and do something to hurt you,” Selena said, looking

at her. 

Aveline replied, “That didn’t happen.” 

Selena nodded. “That’s good. Let’s forget about those unpleasant things 

and eat!” 

“Okay.” 

Aveline nodded. 

The two then went their separate ways home. 

However, just as Aveline sat in the car, her phone rang. She checked and saw it was a call from a business partner, who wanted to discuss some details and needed to meet now. 

Aveline frowned slightly. “Can we meet tomorrow? It’s already very late, and I don’t want to disturb your rest.” 

The other party insisted, “Let’s meet tonight. I have time now, and I’ll be on a business trip tomorrow.” 

Since the client was already under contract, Aveline couldn’t refuse too harshly. She checked the time and then asked, “Alright, I’ll come to you. Where are you?” 

The other party replied, “At No. 9 Mansion.” 

It was a high–end entertainment venue. 

Aveline agreed and told the driver to head to No. 9 Mansion. 

When they arrived, a server led her to a private room on the sixth floor. 

The private rooms at No. 9 Mansion weren’t accessible to just anyone. The floors below the fifth required a minimum spend to access, while the sixth and seventh floors were reserved for VIPS. The seventh and eighth floors were mainly for shareholders and their friends, not open to the public. 

Aveline knocked on the private room door.
