After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 807

Aveline walked over and set the overturned chair upright.

The noise made Lucas frown.

Without turning around, he snapped, "Get out!"

"Oh," Aveline replied, calmly setting the chair in place and turning to leave.

The sound of her voice made Lucas whip around.

Seeing her about to walk out, he quickly strode over and grabbed her wrist.

"I didn’t know it was you. I'm sorry," he said.

When he saw her, the sharp lines of his face softened with surprise, and the frost in his dark eyes melted away inch by inch. Now, his gaze was filled with a nervous concern, as if he feared she might be upset.

Aveline glanced at him and asked, “Is your injury serious?”

Lucas’ eyes brightened a little, and a small smile tugged at his lips. “Are you worried about me?”

Aveline replied in a neutral tone, “I’m just concerned that if you’re seriously hurt, it could delay…”

But before she could finish, Lucas suddenly pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.

“I knew it—you care about me,” he murmured in a deep, magnetic voice, a hint of amusement lacing his tone.

Aveline sighed inwardly.

Could he not even let her finish a sentence? Why was he always so infuriating?

He held her so tightly, it felt like he was trying to fuse her to his body. Her brow furrowed as she said, “Let me go. It's uncomfortable.”

“Okay.”

He immediately loosened his grip but didn’t release her hand.
