My CEO HUSBAND sign the divorce novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255: Proposal Presentation

A small smile appeared on Evan’s face.

"You’re welcome."

For the next several minutes, the two of them unexpectedly carried most of the conversation.

Aimy told him about the lilies from Grandma Margaret’s garden.

About Aunt Anna.

About her stuffed rabbit.

About how she wanted to become strong.

"Strong like Superman?"

President Evan asked.

She shook her head immediately.

"No."

"Then who?"

Aimy thought seriously.

Then pointed at me.

"Strong like Mummy."

For some reason, the answer caused the table to fall silent.

I looked down at my plate.

While across from me, President Evan’s gaze lingered on me for a second longer than necessary before he looked away.

"That’s a good choice."

His voice was unusually quiet.

And somehow, for the first time since meeting him, I couldn’t tell what he was really thinking.

After we finished eating, I tried to pay for the meal, but President Evan didn’t give me the chance.

Before I could even take out my card, he had already slid his across the payment terminal and completed the transaction.

Then he drove us back to the mansion.

When the car stopped in front of the entrance, I unfastened my seatbelt and stepped out with Aimy.

"Thank you for today, President Evan," I said sincerely.

He looked at me for a moment.

"There’s no need to be so formal, Alicia."

I blinked.

"We’re not at the office."

I was slightly taken aback by his words but quickly recovered.

Lowering my gaze to Aimy, I said,

"Say thank you to Uncle for today, Aimy."

Aimy looked up at him with a bright smile.

"Thanks, Uncle."

A faint smile appeared on his face.

"You’re welcome, Aimy."

He gently patted her head.

"I hope we meet again."

"You can come with us to the park next time."

The words left Aimy’s mouth so naturally that I nearly choked.

I immediately pulled her a little closer.

"Aimy, Uncle is busy with wo—"

"If you invite me," Evan interrupted calmly, "then I’ll definitely come."

I looked up instinctively.

For a brief moment, our eyes met.

A faint smile lingered on his lips.

Then he nodded slightly before getting back into his car.

After waving goodbye, he finally drove away.

I stood there for a moment, watching the car disappear down the road.

Trying to process what had just happened.

"Mummy?"

Aimy tugged lightly on my hand.

"What are you looking at?"

Her voice pulled me from my thoughts.

I shook my head.

"Nothing, baby. Let’s go inside."

Taking her hand, I led her into the mansion.

The moment we entered, Aunt Margaret hurried over.

"Alicia, what happened?"

Earlier, I had texted her asking her to tell the driver to collect my car and bring it home while Aimy and I found another way back.

"Aunt, we met President Evan at the park. He gave us a ride home."

"Evan Leister?"

Her voice carried obvious surprise.

I nodded.

Before she could ask another question, Aimy excitedly jumped in.

"Grandma, we also had pasta!"

"Well, did you enjoy yourself?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
