Chapter 194 Aveline stood up to leave. Lucas didn’t stop her, and only after she had completely left the dining room did his gaze lose its intensity. At that moment, the butler said, “Mr. Lucas, we have placed all those things in the warehouse. What do you plan to do with them?” Lucas responded indifferently, … Read More “Divorced 194” »

After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back
A year ago, Aveline Young found a man with amnesia on the side of the road and brought him home. This man was strikingly handsome, with broad shoulders, long legs, and a face that could easily earn a fortune in modeling. Aveline felt an embarrassing flutter in her heart and on a whim, they quickly got married. However, once the man recovered his memory, his first action was to divorce her, claiming he needed to go back and take over his family’s business. Aveline was stunned but accepted the divorce, thinking that money was more important and that she shouldn’t be tied to one man when there were plenty of younger options available. On the day they finalized their divorce, Aveline shocked everyone in Cloudflare City with a bold statement in the divorce papers: “He’s no good, so I got bored.” Post-divorce, Aveline was never short of attention from young, attractive men. At one social event, a friend inquired whether she would ever consider reconciling. Aveline scoffed. “The one who brings up getting back together is a dog!” Late one night, her phone rang. “Who’s this?” “Woof!”
Chapter 193 Aveline initially thought she wouldn’t be able to sleep at the Tudor residence, but she fell into a deep slumber as soon as she lay down. When she woke, it was already the next morning. After washing up, Aveline left her room and happened to see Lucas coming out of his bedroom. Their … Read More “Divorced 193” »
Chapter 192 He stood there, watching her intently as if he wouldn’t stop until she followed his instructions. Aveline briefly closed her eyes, amused that despite her disheveled state, he didn’t seem bothered. Clearly, he wasn’t picky. It wasn’t the first time she had undressed herself in front of him, so Aveline didn’t fuss. Her … Read More “Divorced 192” »
Chapter 191 Aveline looked at his stern back, took a deep breath, and felt incredibly irritated. What on earth was he doing? He had talked about divorce earlier, and now that she had agreed, he refused. He even blamed her for Sophia’s kidnapping. And now she was being watched by Darren. Life was a mess! … Read More “Divorced 191” »
Chapter 190 “You’re aware we’re still married?” Lucas‘ expression grew colder, his eyes glinting with ley resolve. An aura of sharp, palpable power radiated from him. Russell’s grip on the steering wheel loosened for a moment. He glanced at Aveline; she looked unwell, her lips pale, her cheeks red and swollen, and who knew if there were other injuries on her body, Facing Lucas, Aveline’s entire demeanor was filled with resistance, especially with him standing right there. Earlier, she had called him for help, only to receive a curt “hang up” in response. How ironic. “Russ, let’s go.” Aveline didn’t look at Lucas and reached to close the car door. Hearing her words, Lucas‘ expression darkened further. He grabbed her wrist, pulling her out of the car, forcefully wrapping an arm around her waist, and leading her to his vehicle. “Let me go!” Aveline immediately struggled, and in her movements, she inevitably bumped into Lucas, causing her some pain. Lucas pushed her into the car, slamming the door shut. Through the window, he looked at her coldly, “If you dare get out, I’ll deal with him today!” Aveline’s hand hesitated on the door handle, her fingers 415 BONUS curling slightly as she pressed her lips together. Seeing her stay put, Lucas‘ expression softened a bit. He opened the driver’s door, hit the gas, and drove away. The surrounding bodyguards only got into their cars and left once his car was out of sight. Only then could Russell drive away. Sitting in his car, his charming eyes glinted with a dangerous light. Just then, his phone rang. He answered it with a frown, “Hello?” A gentle female voice came through. “Russell, how’s everything progressing?” Russell’s tone was indifferent. “Everything is under control.” The woman’s voice grew even softer. “Russell, I knew you could handle it. I won’t disturb you further; let me know if there are any updates.” “Okay,” Russell replied nonchalantly, then hung up. If Aveline or Lucas had been there, they would have recognized the voice immediately as Yvonne’s. Lucas drove to the hospital with a cold expression, where he had the doctor conduct a full examination on Aveline. The results came back quickly; she only had superficial injuries that would heal with a couple of days of medication. Afterward, Lucas took her to the Tudor residence. As the familiar villa came into view, a wave of reluctance washed over her. Sitting in the car, her expression remained indifferent. “What do you want from me?” +15 BONUS Everything was over; why was he seeking her out now? Wasn’t he impatient when he received her call earlier? A faint mockery clouded Aveline’s eyes. Lucas felt a pang of frustration in his chest. He looked at her deeply and said coldly, “Get out.” Aveline frowned, feeling reluctant. “If you have something to say, just say it.” He suddenly held her firmly by her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. “Aveline, since when did you become so familiar with him?” Lucas stared at her intently. Aveline frowned. “That seems to be none of your business.” Lucas‘ grip on her chin tightened slightly. “We’re still married. I expect your fidelity. Aveline looked at him in surprise, as if she hadn’t expected him to say such a thing. Lucas, pained by the look on her face, averted his eyes and got out of the car. D COMMENTS U S
Chapter 189 Darren’s eyes flashed with malice as he suddenly raised his hand, thrusting it toward Aveline’s face. Darkness enveloped the night, broken only by a sliver of moonlight. As the dagger rose, its surface caught the pale glow, flashing a brief, ominous glimmer. Aveline’s heart suddenly tightened, and she shouted, “Even if I die, you should at least let me know why!” Darren paused, gave a cold smile, and viciously grabbed Aveline’s hair. “Look at me, take a good look at my face. Do you really not remember me?” Forced to look up, Aveline’s eyes widened slightly as she stared at his face. Darren had distinct features, and he must have been good- looking in his youth, but now his face was full of hostility, his eyes brimming with murderous intent. Aveline felt a deep sense of unfamiliarity; she truly didn’t remember him! Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Darren angrily slapped her again. “You little witch, you ruined me! If it weren’t for you back then, I would have been living freely abroad by now!” He didn’t want to waste any more words and raised the dagger, aiming at Aveline’s face. “Bang!” The abandoned factory’s door exploded inward with a thunderous crash. Blinding headlights flooded the space as a sports car roared in, tires screeching, aimed directly at them. Darren froze, not expecting anyone to arrive so quickly. In a panic, he instinctively released Aveline and turned to flee. The car door opened, and a figure quickly gave chase, but Darren clearly knew the terrain well. Since it was night, he darted into the trees and soon disappeared. Aveline struggled to her feet, and someone reached out to grab her arm, startling her. “It’s me.” Russell’s voice came. Aveline looked at him, her cheek swollen and red, her appearance disheveled. “Russ, you saved me again…” Russell said, “Sorry, he got away. Who was he? Why did he come after you?” Aveline shook her head. “I don’t know.” She couldn’t understand why she was so unlucky, always encountering such situations. Russell said, “Get in the car first, I’ll take you to the hospital. Aveline attempted a wry smile but winced as pain shot through her face. Without protest, she let Russell support her as she got into his car. The sports car exited the warehouse, turned around, and was about to leave when another car sped over and stopped right in front of them. The headlights shone brightly, illuminating the area like daylight. The car door opened, and several bodyguards approached, led by Lucas. Aveline saw him and her expression froze. +15 BONUS Russell commented, “He only arrived now? Isn’t that a bit too late? If you’d waited for his rescue, you’d be in a hospital bed already.” Aveline remained silent, just quietly watching Lucas‘ tall, handsome figure. Lucas walked to the front of the sports car. He saw the two of them inside and noticed Aveline’s disheveled state, his brows furrowing instantly. He walked over and opened Aveline’s car door. “Get out.” Aveline didn’t look at him. “What do you want?” That cold attitude again! Lucas felt a surge of frustration in his chest, his expression turning, colder. “Get out. Don’t make me repeat myself a third time.” At that moment, an icy aura surrounded him, more chilling than the night breeze. Russell sneered, “Mr. Tudor, if you can’t protect her, just divorce her. Don’t delay others who can.” BIG SALE 3500 bonus free fou you 19 COMMENTS
Chapter 188 Lucas’s chest constricted as he recalled Aveline’s icy demeanor. The memory left him with a lingering discomfort. He tugged at his collar, trying to ease the pressure, but it didn’t help. Stepping out of the hospital, Lucas found himself under a darkened sky. The waiting driver had already pulled up to the entrance. Lucas got into the car and, on impulse, called Aveline’s number again. It was still turned off. Feeling frustrated, he dialed Desmond. “Find out where Aveline is right now.” Desmond replied, “Yes.” An hour ago, Brian had been dragged out, battered, and bruised–all for offending Aveline. With that grim scene fresh in his mind, Lucas dared not delay the order. He knew Lucas was displeased. Desmond’s expression was serious as he instructed his team to investigate. As their sports car zipped past a taxi, Russell’s friend in the passenger seat snickered. “Hey Russ, check it out. That cab’s practically smoking. What’s their rush?” +18 BONUS Russell glanced over. The taxi was indeed going fast, but not as fast as their sports car. As the engine roared past, he noticed a hand at the back window of the taxi. It was a woman’s hand, delicate and pale, gripping the window tightly–something was off. Russell didn’t pay it much mind and hit the gas, catching up with the car ahead. The group stopped at a spot on the mountain road, got out, and joked around. Russell squinted into the distance, and for some reason, he thought of that hand again. It seemed oddly familiar. Feeling agitated, he turned and got back into his car, saying, “I have something to do. You guys go ahead.” With that, the sports car roared off quickly. Aveline felt herself slammed to the ground with crushing force. Before she could catch her breath, she was dragged forward, her arms painfully scraping against the rough surface. When Aveline opened her eyes, she found herself inside an abandoned factory. The walls were dilapidated, and drafts came from all sides. Her body felt weak and limp, leaving her helpless as she was pulled along. Darren dragged her to the interior of the factory and stopped. Noticing she had regained consciousness, he gave a cold, sinister laugh. “Awake already? Good. The show’s about to begin.” +15 BONUS Aveline was covered in dust. She coughed violently a couple of times before asking, “Who are you? Why have you kidnapped me?” Initially, she had assumed she was caught up in something related to Lucas. But now it seemed this man was specifically after her. Aveline couldn’t fathom how she had offended him so gravely that he wanted her dead. Darren grabbed a fistful of her hair and slapped her face hard. “You little wretch! How dare you forget me? If it weren’t for you, I would never have been arrested!” His eyes were filled with intense hatred and murderous intent. He pulled out a knife and waved it menacingly over Aveline’s body. “I spent ten years in prison. Every single day, I thought about how killing you would be the first thing I’d do when I got out. I’ll make you beg for death!” He held the knife to Aveline’s face. “First, I’ll ruin that pretty face of yours. Turn you into an ugly monster.” Aveline didn’t dare move. Her cheek stung fiercely, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. Her breath trembled as she spoke, “I really don’t know you. Who are you?” This enraged Darren even further. The person he had despised for ten long years didn’t … Read More “Divorced 188” »

He still had a place for her in his heart. Now, he was no longer answering Aveline’s calls. “Lucas, when will you divorce her?” Sophia asked weakly. Lucas, focused on his documents, remained unmoved by Aveline’s recent call. His voice was cold and deep as he said, “Soon.” A hint of joy flashed in Sophia’s eyes. She quickly added, ” Lucas, I truly love you. With me by your side, we’ll be very happy together.” Lucas didn’t reply; he simply looked down at his documents, his fingers occasionally turning the pages. Sophia felt immense satisfaction just watching his striking face, thrilled at the thought of soon becoming Mrs. Tudor. At that moment, his phone rang again. Lucas‘ eyelashes fluttered, and he glanced at the caller ID with a neutral expression. It was Desmond calling. Sophia also glanced at the screen and relaxed when she saw it was Desmond. “Hello?” Desmond said, “Mr. Tudor, there’s an urgent overseas video conference you need to attend now.” +15 BONUS “Alright, I’ll be there,” Lucas replied, hanging up. He turned to Sophia, “Get some rest. I’ll come by tomorrow.” Sophia nodded. “Okay.” As Lucas left, she gripped the bedsheet tightly, then took out her phone and called someone. “Hello, last night’s issue won’t be discovered, right?” The other person replied, “No, he’s very concerned about you now. Use this opportunity.” Sophia responded, “I understand.” After hanging up, she breathed a sigh of relief. Outside the hospital room, Lucas listened for any sound from inside, his gaze dark and cold. Entering the elevator, he dialed Aveline’s number. … Read More “Divorced 187” »
Chapter 186 Yvonne left the beauty salon. Aveline hadn’t been sleeping well lately. She lay on the bed, and as the therapist started massaging her, she soon fell asleep. When she woke up again, it was already dark outside. Aveline left the salon and took out her phone to call a taxi. She hadn’t noticed earlier, but the salon was on the outskirts of the city, making it difficult to find a ride. After waiting for a while by the roadside, she finally saw a taxi approaching slowly. “Where to?” the driver asked once she got in. Aveline replied, “Maple Garden.” She then checked her phone for messages and saw one from Selena complaining about Aaron. The last message caught her attention. Selena asked, “Do you have an extra WhatsApp account?” Aveline replied, “What do you need it for?” Selena texted, “This jerk is giving me such a hard time. I need to get back at him. I’ve found a way. Just wait and see!” Aveline replied, “Don’t go too far. If you push him too much, you’ll end up suffering.” Selena texted, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.” After replying with “Okay,” Aveline didn’t say anything more. She sent the evidence of the food poisoning to Lucas, but he hadn’t responded. Her long lashes fluttered slightly before she closed the chat with him. Just then, a faint fragrance filled the car. Aveline, sensitive to scents and not fond of perfume, frowned and glanced forward. She noticed the driver wearing a hat and mask, his face completely covered. A sudden unease swept through her. She gripped her phone tightly and pretended to stay calm while continuing to look at her phone. She dialed a number without checking who it was due to her nervousness. When it connected, she realized it was Lucas‘ number. Yes, he was at the top of her contacts because she had called him earlier when the bodyguards wouldn’t let her see him at the hospital. He hadn’t answered and had eventually turned off his phone. Aveline pressed her lips together. She wanted to hang up, but her anxiety made her fingers tremble slightly, and a faint hope surfaced. “Beep… beep… beep…” After three rings, the call was connected. “Hello, you- >> “Why are you still bothering Lucas? He already said he would divorce you. He doesn’t love you. Can you just leave him alone?” +15 BONUS Before Aveline could finish, she heard Sophia’s weak voice on the other end. Stunned, she instinctively gripped her phone tighter and finally said, “Let me speak to him. I have something important to discuss.” Sophia, agitated, started coughing, then said, “Lucas, it’s Aveline.” “Hang up.” His cold, deep voice came through with no warmth, and Aveline’s heart sank instantly. Sophia promptly ended the call. Aveline’s face turned pale. It wasn’t Sophia causing trouble or anyone else rejecting her; it was him, directly saying to hang up on her. The flicker of hope in her heart felt like a slap across her face, leaving her cheeks burning and her mind in a daze. D
Chapter 185 Aveline took a deep breath. It was a good opportunity to ask about the recording. “Okay.” Yvonne asked, “Where are you now? I’ll come to pick you up.” Aveline gave her location, and about 15 minutes later, a car slowly approached. The window rolled down, revealing Yvonne’s well–maintained face. “Hello, Madam Yvonne.” Aveline smiled politely. Yvonne said, “Get in.” Aveline opened the door and got into the car. Yvonne asked directly, “Why don’t you look well? Haven’t you been resting?” Aveline replied, “The issue with Lucas being poisoned has been weighing on me. I haven’t been sleeping well.” Yvonne said, “Honestly, I can’t believe you would do such a thing, but since you cooked the food, it’s natural for people to suspect. Didn’t you call the police? I’m sure they’ll find evidence to prove your innocence sooner or later.” “Yes.” Aveline nodded, saying no more. At the beauty salon, they went straight to a private room and lay down on the beds as the therapist instructed. Yvonne asked, “Did you visit Lucas in the past couple of +15 BONUS days?” “Yes, I did, but he still minds the poisoning incident and won’t see me,” Aveline said. Yvonne replied, “He just needs time to process. Once he comes around, he’ll see you. Don’t worry.” “Yes,” Aveline responded simply. After that, Yvonne didn’t continue the conversation, nor did she mention Sophia’s kidnapping. Aveline’s brow furrowed. How was she supposed to bring it up? However, her purpose for coming was to ask about this; otherwise, it would be a wasted trip. Aveline hesitated for a moment before saying, “Madam Yvonne, do you know that Sophia was kidnapped last night?” “What?” Yvonne’s tone instantly showed surprise. “Sophia was kidnapped? What happened? How is she?” Aveline replied, “She’s fine. Lucas‘ men are protecting her now, but the two kidnappers claimed I was behind it and provided a recording. The recording was of our conversation at the restaurant.” Yvonne exclaimed, “How could this happen? Aveline, you don’t think I recorded it, do you?” Aveline said, “Madam Yvonne, I don’t suspect you. I’m just wondering if someone is targeting us and planted a recording device in our dining room.” Yvonne said, “This is very serious. I need to look into it 2/3 thoroughly. This implicates us, suggesting we conspired against Sophia? That’s utterly ridiculous.” Yvonne’s tone shifted from surprise to anger, then to a +15 BONUS coldness, like someone who had been wronged, not like the mastermind. Aveline closed her eyes. Could it really have nothing to do with Yvonne? She wasn’t sure and didn’t dare say more, fearing the recording issue might happen again. Yvonne suddenly stood up and said, “No, I need to see Sophia. This is a misunderstanding, and I’ll explain it to her.” As Aveline also began to rise, Yvonne said, “You stay here. I’ll go alone. You don’t look well; it’s best to rest.” She smiled warmly, her gaze full of gentleness and care. Aveline paused and then lay back down. “Okay.” If Yvonne went, perhaps Sophia would calm down instead of getting more agitated upon seeing her. BIG SALE: 3500 bonus free fou you D
