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

As night fell, Aveline groggily opened her eyes. She was still in the hospital room, and Barbara had not returned. She got up and turned on the lights.

Just as she gathered her thoughts, the door to the room opened. Thinking it was Barbara, she turned her head, only to see two bodyguards walk in. "Miss Young, Madam Babara is waiting for you outside."

This time, Aveline didn't believe a word.

She sank into the sofa and said, "It's pretty late. Madam Barbara still isn't back? It's already getting chilly out there. At her age, catching a cold could be serious."

Seeing that she wasn't leaving, the bodyguards exchanged glances. They then approached her, took out a spray bottle from their pocket, and sprayed it in her face. Aveline was startled and instinctively tried to avoid it, but it was too late. The strong, unpleasant smell filled her nostrils, and she immediately felt dizzy. "You... you..." She couldn't finish her sentence before passing out.

The hospital bed was pushed into the elevator and taken out through the back door of the hospital, unnoticed by anyone.

When Russell arrived with his men, Aveline was already gone from the room.

Selena, full of anxiety, asked, "Wasn't Ave here? Where is she?"

Russell inspected the surroundings, then closed his eyes and said, "There's a scent of tranquilizer. She's been moved."

Selena's face turned even paler. "Could someone know we're looking for her?"

Russell said, "This room was previously occupied by Barbara. Aveline came here on her own, so Barbara must have summoned her."

"What does Barbara want with her now? Can't the Tudors just leave her be? Aveline's already divorced Lucas. Why are they still dragging her into their mess?" Selena fumed at the mention of the Tudor name, her eyes flashing with contempt for Lucas.

She turned to leave. "I have to find Lucas. This is his family's doing. If he can't find Aveline, I'll fight him to the end!"

Russell didn't stop her. Instead, he instructed his men, "Check the hospital's surveillance and continue searching for Aveline."

"Yes, sir!"

Selena rushed to the DK Group building but was stopped at the reception. She slammed her palm on the counter and snapped, 'I need to see Lucas. If I don't get to him today, I'll make sure every single one of you has hell to pay!"

The receptionist responded, "Miss, if you continue to cause trouble, I'll have to call the police."

Selena gritted her teeth in frustration.

At that moment, the elevator doors opened, and Lucas and Aaron stepped out.

Selena instinctively turned and, seeing Lucas, immediately rushed over.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Aaron, seeing her, thought she was there to see him. A smile appeared on his face as he stepped forward. "You're that eager..."

But before he could finish, Selena pushed him aside and charged towards Lucas, glaring at him angrily. "Where have you taken Ave this time? You're divorced! Can you let her have some peace for a few days?"

Lucas narrowed his eyes dangerously. "Aveline is missing?"

Selena sneered. "Stop pretending. Your grandmother called her to the hospital, but after she went, she disappeared. I just came from the hospital, and she's gone!"

Lucas' face darkened immediately. He pulled out his phone and made a call.
