After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 597

Aveline smiled wryly. "Don’t say that. Our conversation gave me a lot of new insights too. We should definitely discuss and explore these ideas more often."

"Absolutely," Sidney replied, his eyes shining brightly. Then he added, "I should get going now."

Aveline nodded. "Alright, take care on your way home."

She watched as Sidney stepped into the elevator. As soon as she closed the door and turned around, she found Selena standing behind her with a teasing grin on her face.

"What’s up with you?" Aveline asked, startled and confused by her friend’s expression.

Selena crossed her arms, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "So, did you feel that subtle, romantic tension yet?"

Aveline’s mouth twitched slightly. "You’re imagining things. We spent the entire time working on a design concept."

Selena’s playful smile vanished. "How dull! If it were me, alone in a room with such a charming and shy guy, I’d definitely make a move."

As if lost in her thoughts, Selena’s expression grew a little dreamy.

Aveline gave her a gentle push. "It’s late. Stop daydreaming, or you’ll end up oversleeping tomorrow."

Selena pouted. "I’m currently unemployed, remember?"

Stunned into silence, Aveline chose to cut the conversation short.

...

As Sidney exited the elevator, he spotted Lucas, dressed in workout gear, returning from a run. His breath was slightly uneven, but his gaze remained icy.

Lucas jogged up to him and asked, "Do you know how to box?"

A hint of caution flickered in Sidney’s eyes. "What do you want?"
