After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 604

Aveline quickly waved her hands and said, "No need, Ma’am. I came to visit you, so let me stay here and chat with you for a while."

Sidney chimed in, "Perfect timing—I have something to take care of, so you two can talk."

Ruth paused, then smiled helplessly. "This rascal."

Aveline sat down by the bedside and began chatting with Ruth, learning a lot about Sidney's past. It seemed Ruth hadn’t had a chance to chat like this in a long time, and once she started, she couldn’t stop.

By the time Sidney returned, Ruth was in the middle of sharing some of his childhood embarrassments.

"Mom," Sidney quickly interjected, "I was only gone for a short while, and you're already spilling all my secrets?"

Ruth chuckled warmly. "Every kid has their share of embarrassing moments. It's nothing to stress over."

Sidney sighed.

Aveline looked at him with a smile. "Did you get everything sorted?"

Sidney nodded. "Yeah, all done."

Aveline stood up and turned to Ruth. "It's getting late, so I’ll head out now. Please take care, and I’ll visit you again soon."

Ruth, though reluctant to see her go, said, "Alright. Sidney, see Aveline out and be careful on your way."

Aveline nodded. "Thank you, Ma’am. Goodbye."

"Goodbye, dear."

…

Once outside the hospital, Sidney looked at Aveline with gratitude. "Aveline, thank you so much. I haven't seen my mom smile like that in a long time."

Aveline replied, "No need to thank me. I just had a chat with her. Make sure you spend more time with her whenever you can."

Sidney nodded. "I will."
