After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 860

Selena, clearly annoyed, snapped, "What do you mean by that? Why wouldn’t I have leads? I’m not telling you anything! Just tell me where Lucas is—I need to talk to him in person!"

Aaron chuckled, clearly amused, as if he could picture Selena's frustration even through the phone. The thought seemed to entertain him, but he didn’t keep her waiting. "Alright, alright. I’ll call him now."

"Good, hurry up." Selena hung up and turned to Aveline, giving her a playful wink. "We’ve been going crazy trying to find you these past couple of days. Even Desmond filed a police report. But once you see Lucas, you can clear everything up."

Aveline nodded. "I know."

She was still unsure whether to tell Lucas about the pregnancy.

They were already divorced, and in her mind, this child was hers alone.

But Lucas had said he would try to win her back, that he’d respect her choices.

He had changed, or maybe he had just returned to the person she once knew—the Lucas she had fallen in love with.

Perhaps meeting him first would help her decide. Once they met, she’d figure out what to say.

...

Meanwhile, Aaron called Lucas directly.

"Hey, Lucas, where are you?" he asked, hearing a wave of loud background noise on the other end of the line.

"Hello?" Lucas’ voice came through, but it was faint and unclear.

Aaron paused, confused. "What’s going on? Where are you?"

The music and noise were too loud, making it impossible to have a proper conversation, so Aaron hung up and called Desmond instead.

"Hey, Desmond, where’s Lucas right now?"

Desmond replied, "Mr. Tudor is at Meet Bar."
