After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 904

"Ah?" Maria was momentarily stunned. "What did I do?"

A sudden feeling of unease crept into her.

Why was Lucas suddenly interrogating her?

She quickly ran through her recent actions in her mind. She'd been playing it safe, behaving like a model employee—completely well-behaved.

So why was Lucas asking this?

Wait...

The only thing she’d been involved in lately was messing with Sidney.

Could it be... he had gone to Lucas to complain?

Maria narrowed her eyes, remaining silent for a moment.

Lucas' tone grew even colder. "Maria, cut it out. If I hear any more rumors, you're heading straight to the Delta, and you won’t be coming back!"

With that, Lucas hung up the phone.

A chill ran down Maria’s spine. Lucas was angry—really angry.

And that meant serious consequences.

The Delta... a hell on earth.

She thought of Brian, who was already there, living a life worse than death.

But why was Lucas so furious all of a sudden?

What exactly had Sidney told him?

Maria held her phone tightly, deep in thought for a while before dialing Desmond’s number.

"Hello, Maria," Desmond quickly answered, his tone light and cheerful.

"Desmond, tell me honestly—what’s going on with the boss?"

"Uh?" Desmond was confused, not understanding what she was getting at. "Maria, what exactly do you want to know?"

"Our boss called me earlier, chewed me out, and warned me to behave or he’d send me to join Brian. But I haven’t done anything recently! So why is he suddenly so angry?" Maria explained, frustration creeping into her voice.
