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

Chapter 591



Lucas, with his striking features and tall, commanding presence, stood out starkly from the rest of the bus passengers. His innate air of nobility seemed out of place in the crowded vehicle.

He held onto the handrail with one hand, the other casually tucked into his pocket, his gaze resting on Aveline, who sat quietly in her seat. A faint smile tugged at his lips, drawing the attention of several onlookers.

Two girls sitting behind them took out their phones to snap a photo, whispering, "He's so handsome. I take this bus all the time, but I've never seen him before."

Her friend chuckled. "Didn't you notice he's been watching that girl the whole time? They're clearly a couple!"

An older woman also noticed Lucas and approached, patting him on the arm. "Young man, do you have a girlfriend?"

Lucas raised his brows slightly, not expecting the sudden question. But his eyes fell on Aveline as he replied, "I have a wife."

The woman glanced at Aveline with a hint of regret on her face. Hearing Lucas' words, any hopeful thoughts others might have had quickly faded.

Aveline frowned and shot him a glance. "I'm not your wife."

Lucas leaned in closer. "Aveline, if you keep denying our relationship, I'll kiss you right now."

"You!" Aveline's expression changed, her eyes flashing with anger.

Lucas' eyes held a dangerous glint, as if he really would kiss her if she said another word.

Aveline held back, not wanting to cause a scene in front of so many people. He might not care about his dignity, but she did.

The bus swayed and bumped along for an hour before finally reaching a stop near Maple Garden. Aveline got off immediately, heading straight toward the complex.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Lucas was about to follow her when his phone rang. Glancing at the screen, he saw it was a call from Frederick. His expression grew colder, but he answered, "Hello?"

Frederick's tone was sharp. "Lucas, what did you do to Sophia? You caused her to get kicked out of the Winter family! Have you forgotten that if it wasn't for her, you'd be dead by now?"

Lucas' voice turned colder. "You might want to ask her why I ended up in a coma for a year and lost my memory for another year."

Frederick's tone became serious. "What do you mean by that?"

Lucas asked, "Is Sophia at the Tudor family's main estate?"

Frederick let out a cold snort. "You may be heartless, but I can't ignore it. After all, she's the one who saved your life!"

"Perfect," Lucas replied, "I'll have something sent over soon. You should all take a look."

With that, he ended the call and immediately dialed Desmond, giving him brief instructions.

When he looked up again, Aveline was nowhere to be seen.

His expression darkened, and he quickly made another call. "Keep an eye on Russell. Find out who he's closest to at the main estate."

Aveline took a different route after turning the corner, heading straight to Selena's place.

As she stepped out of the elevator, she saw Selena saying goodbye to someone from the property management. Aveline asked curiously, "What's going on?" Selena's face lit up with surprise. "What brings you here?"

Aveline replied, "I didn't have much to do, so I decided to drop by. What's happening?"

Selena sighed. "Don't even ask. Lately, I've had a string of break-ins. The place gets turned upside down, but nothing's ever stolen. Isn't that strange?"
