After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 766

Aveline glanced at him, her heart unable to find peace.

He was being surprisingly agreeable...

Lucas sensed her gaze, a faint smile curving on his thin lips. "Regretting it? Shall we leave now?"

Aveline quickly withdrew her gaze.

She really couldn't show him even a hint of kindness; he'd take a mile if given an inch.

With no dispute over the assets, the procedures were much simpler.

However, they couldn't get the divorce certificate today; there was a mandatory thirty-day cooling-off period.

Aveline frowned. If these thirty days passed peacefully, that would be fine, but if something were to happen...

"Can't we just get it done right away?" she asked.

The lawyer replied, "We have to follow the regulations."

Fine.

They left the lawyer’s office.

Sunlight fell upon them.

It was a cold winter, but the warm rays managed to disperse some of the chill.

Lucas noticed the hint of regret on her face, and his eyes darkened slightly. "Regretting something? I’ll be back in thirty days, you know."

He took a step closer. "But before then, you need to accompany me somewhere."

Aveline looked at him. "Where?"

Lucas replied, "I can't tell you yet. I'll let you know in a couple of days."

Aveline frowned again.

What was he playing at acting so secretive?

She had a bad feeling about this.
