After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 713

“You really are pushing your luck,” Aaron muttered against her lips, his hand gripping her waist as if he wanted to pin her down on the dining table right then and there.

Selena's breath was uneven, and it took a moment after he released her for her to catch her breath.

"So, does that mean you agree?" she asked, still a bit breathless.

Aaron lazily curled his lips into a smile. "Alright, girlfriend."

Selena smiled back, getting up from his lap and settling back into the seat across from him. She pushed her plate of steak towards him and said, "Cut this for me."

Her spoiled demeanor made Aaron's heart itch. His Adam's apple bobbed again.

He had almost no experience with relationships, while she acted like a seasoned expert. It only made him feel more frustrated. If he didn’t know that her first time had been with him, he might have felt even more conflicted right now.

Selena watched him cut the steak, amusement dancing in her eyes. The recent kiss had smudged her lipstick a little, making her lips look all the more enticing, tempting anyone to wipe it away.

As Aaron sliced the steak, he remarked, "You’re the first woman who’s dared to order me around."

Selena raised an eyebrow, propping her chin on her hand. "How can it be an order when a boyfriend does something for his girlfriend?"

Aaron glanced at her, then placed the neatly cut steak in front of her.

Selena picked up a piece with her fork and brought it to his lips. "Here, for your hard work."

Aaron’s eyes flickered for a moment before he opened his mouth and ate it.

For some reason, the steak tasted especially good.

Selena continued to eat in small bites, occasionally glancing out at the riverside view. The night shrouded the city, a ferry glided slowly across the river, and the lights were bright and captivating—a picturesque scene.

Aaron said, "Why don't you stay at my place tonight?"

Selena shook her head at his suggestion. "Not tonight, maybe tomorrow."

She didn’t reject him too harshly—after all, they only had three months. She didn’t mind staying with him.
