After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 702

Aveline couldn't help but sigh before answering the call. "Hello?"

Lucas' deep, magnetic voice came through, his tone revealing no emotion. "Aveline, it's been two hours already. Where are you?"

Aveline cast a glance towards the ward before responding, "Something unexpected has come up on my end. I won't be able to make it today. Let's reschedule our visit to the lawyer's office for tomorrow instead."

"You wish." Lucas scoffed lightly. "I already agreed to your request, but you're the one who didn't show up, Aveline. Not everyone has time to wait for you."

Aveline closed her eyes briefly. She had anticipated this outcome.

After a pause, she asked, "Then what about the court session?"

Lucas let out a cold laugh. "Even if you bring it up to court, I won't attend. Aveline, I have no intention of divorcing you. I've always been very clear about that."

Aveline had nothing more to say.

Yes, of course.

This was such a good opportunity, and yet so many things had gone wrong.

Could it really be that fate didn't want them to divorce?

But what was the point of staying together?

Aveline couldn't figure it out, and she decided not to dwell on it anymore. "Alright, I understand," she said, before promptly hanging up the phone.

She turned around to arrange for a caregiver.

...

Lucas stared at the disconnected call, his eyebrows furrowing.

In fact, he was still standing at the entrance of the lawyer's office.

The lawyer was still waiting for them to settle the divorce.

All he had to do was tell her to come over now, and they could finalize the procedure.

But why would he say that?

His stance had always been unwavering—he didn't want a divorce!

The only reason he agreed to it in the first place was because he couldn't stand looking into her gloomy, dark eyes anymore.
