After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 950

Sidney replied calmly, "I saw everything. And let’s be honest, didn’t you deserve that slap?"

"Pfft..." Maria, standing beside him, couldn’t hold back her laughter, her amusement clear.

Diana’s face twisted even more, turning an ugly shade of red. She stared at Sidney for a long moment before finally saying, "I really misjudged you!"

With that, she stormed off, clearly furious.

Sidney frowned slightly.

Running off without even an apology? How rude.

Turning back, he found Maria smiling brightly, her eyes curved into happy crescents. She was clearly enjoying the moment.

Sidney pressed his lips together briefly and asked, "How’s your health?"

Maria shrugged playfully. "See for yourself—I’m doing just fine. I even had the strength to slap someone."

Sidney’s eyes flickered. "True... you didn’t hold back at all."

A breeze swept by, and for a moment, Sidney fell into a quiet contemplation.

Maria broke the silence, tilting her head slightly as she asked, "You’ve been around a lot these past few days. Why didn’t you just come to see me?"

Sidney looked genuinely surprised. "You knew?"

"I’m not blind," Maria said with a smirk. "I saw you."

Sidney’s fingers curled slightly, a subtle sign of nervousness. He stood there in his crisp white shirt, his sharp features accentuated by his short, clean-cut hair. His eyes were focused intensely on her, far too intently.

Maria raised an eyebrow, sensing the shift. "What’s this about?"

Sidney’s voice was low as he asked, "Do you like him?"

"Who?" Maria blinked, momentarily confused.

"Do you like Herman?" Sidney clarified, his gaze unwavering.
