After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 592

Aveline frowned slightly and asked, "That is strange. Did you change the locks?"

Selena nodded. "I did, but it didn’t help. I’m starting to wonder if these thieves are expert locksmiths. Maybe they learned how to pick locks before deciding to become burglars."

Aveline chuckled at her comment but still said, "If it’s that unsafe here, maybe you should find a new place to live."

Selena sank into the couch with a sigh. "I’d love to, but the landlord won’t refund my deposit. It’s a lot of money."

Aveline gave her a sympathetic look. "How much longer is your lease?"

Selena thought for a moment. "Just one more month. After that, I’m definitely moving."

"Good." Aveline nodded.

That seemed like the best solution.

But she couldn’t shake the feeling of unease—why were there repeated break-ins at Selena’s place? She recalled the first time it happened, which coincided with her staying there.

Unable to make sense of it, Aveline got up and headed to the kitchen to check what ingredients were available.

Seeing this, Selena asked, "Weren’t we going to your place?"

Aveline replied, "I’m already here. Why bother going back to my place? Isn’t that a hassle?"

Selena hugged a stuffed toy, giving her a knowing look. "Is it really about avoiding trouble, or are you trying to dodge someone?"

Aveline glanced at her. "Wow, you’re so sharp."

"Hmph, of course, I am," Selena said, lifting her chin proudly. "But seriously, how did you end up hiking together?"

Aveline’s lashes fluttered at the question. She hadn’t told Selena about what happened the night before, and if she did, Selena would definitely want to confront him.

"He lives below me. He caught me when I was leaving, and he insisted on taking me hiking," Aveline explained.
