After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 814

Desmond was speechless.

His usually composed expression was starting to crack.

Shareholders were equally at a loss for words.

“What on earth? Do you even hear yourself right now?” they thought.

Their expressions were a sight to behold, all eyes on Lucas, waiting to see what else he might say.

On the other end of the line, Aveline fell silent.

Did she hear him right? Did he just say he was being bullied?

Wasn't he usually the one doing the bullying?

With a calm tone, she replied, “It seems like you’re fine, so I’m going to hang up now.”

“There is something, really!” Lucas quickly insisted, trying to keep her on the line. “After this incident, the executives at Tudor Group are holding a board meeting. They want to remove me from my position and send me packing. I’m about to be unemployed!”

Shareholders were speechless.

This was getting more and more ridiculous.

Aveline paused for a moment and said, “This process sounds oddly familiar.”

Wasn’t this exactly how things went with DK Group?

And what happened then?

Then he went and pulled a major move, seizing control of Tudor Group right from under their noses.

Lucas replied, “This time it’s different from last time. I’m actually out of a job. How about you take care of me?”

Aveline said, “I can't afford to.”

Lucas responded, “You can. I'm very low maintenance.”

Shareholders really didn’t know what to say.

This was too much to bear. They couldn't listen to this any longer.

What on earth was going on?

Noticing their stares, Lucas slowly turned his gaze toward them, giving them a sweeping look.
