After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 743

Zachary was caught off guard and asked, "What's going on?"

"Mr. Wills, there's a problem I don't understand. Can you help me with it?"

"Mr. Wills, is my blanket folded correctly?"

"Mr. Wills..."

And so, with a series of strange excuses, the children managed to whisk Zachary away.

Lucas stood up and walked over, his tall figure clad in a black coat with broad shoulders that emphasized his mature, masculine charm. His handsome face held a faint smile, his mood clearly quite pleasant.

Aveline frowned at him. "What kind of trick are you playing now?"

Lucas replied, "I can't stand seeing another man get close to you."

Aveline rolled her eyes. "How childish."

She turned and headed towards her room, and Lucas followed her every step of the way.

When she reached the doorway, she turned back to him. "Stop following me."

But Lucas moved aside slightly and pointed to a spot not far away, where several curious little heads were peeking out, watching them intently.

"They already know we're married. If you don't let me in, how are you going to explain it to them?"

Aveline chuckled softly. "Why is that my problem? If anyone needs to explain, it’s you."

With that, she opened the door, slipped inside, and shut it firmly behind her, clearly determined not to let him in.

Lucas stood there, momentarily speechless.

"Mr. Lucas, why won’t Miss Aveline let you in?" Jessie asked, puzzled.

A trace of disappointment crossed Lucas' handsome face. He crouched down and gently patted Jessie’s head. "I upset her, and now I want to ask for her forgiveness. Will you help me?"

Jessie asked, "Do you really know what you did wrong?"

"Yes." Lucas nodded earnestly.

Jessie immediately responded, "Mr. Wills says admitting your mistakes and making amends is the sign of a good child. We’ll help you!"
