After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 906

As Sidney’s figure grew smaller in the distance, the ache in Maria’s chest deepened. She felt a bit dazed.

How could this be happening?

Why did watching him walk away hurt so much?

It wasn’t supposed to be like this.

From the very beginning, her intentions toward him had never been pure.

She wasn’t supposed to develop feelings for him.

Yet, the memory of his cold, disdainful eyes and his indifferent attitude tore at her heart.

Maria turned around, tilting her head back slightly and closing her eyes as she tried to regain her composure.

Once she’d steadied herself, she got back into her car.

If it wasn’t meant to be, it was time to cut her losses.

After all, she’d only intended to play around from the start. If Sidney wasn’t going to cooperate, then there was no point in continuing.

...

Fawn, who had been watching the scene unfold, noticed when Maria drove off. "She’s gone."

Sidney looked at her with gratitude. "Thank you, Miss Powell."

Fawn chuckled. "No problem! I even got to hear some juicy gossip. If I’m not mistaken, wasn’t that your boss?"

"Former boss," Sidney corrected.

Fawn’s eyes sparkled with curiosity, and the look she gave him said more than words could. Sidney knew exactly what she was thinking but chose to ignore it.

"Miss Powell, I’ll be going now. Feel free to send me any ideas you have."

"Will do," Fawn replied with a grin, watching him walk away.
