After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 619

Rina narrowed her eyes. "Are you threatening me?"

Aveline shook her head. "Isn't it you, Miss Johnson, who does the threatening?"

Rina let out a cold laugh. "Do you really think this will make me afraid of you?"

She stepped closer to Aveline, her eyes filled with open disdain. "Taking you down would be as easy as squashing a bug. So go ahead, wait for your end, you wretch."

With that, she turned and marched off, her bodyguards trailing behind her in a show of force.

The other patients and their families in the hospital continued to peek out from their rooms, watching the spectacle unfold.

"Mom, Mom!" Sidney's urgent voice suddenly broke through the tension.

Aveline's expression shifted, and she rushed over, only to find Sidney's mother unconscious in the hospital room.

"Doctor! Doctor!"

...

Sidney’s mother was rushed into the emergency room.

Sidney stood by the door, his posture slumped, his face noticeably paler than before.

Aveline stayed beside him, offering comfort. "She’ll be alright."

Sidney's voice was rough and dry as he said, "Aveline, you’ve helped me again. Thank you."

Aveline replied, "We’re friends, no need for thanks."

Sidney looked at her, something unspoken flickering in his eyes. "Aveline, I—"

But Aveline cut him off, "Just remember, you’ll need to work hard to pay back the hospital fees."

Sidney managed a small smile, the dark cloud over his heart lifting slightly. "I will. I promise."

Aveline smiled back. "So don’t worry too much. Everything’s taken care of now. Just focus on helping your mom recover and keep working hard."
