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

Seeing the clear hostility in Rina's eyes, Aveline quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, I'm married."

Hearing this, Rina immediately relaxed and asked, "Oh, you're married? Then why are you here? Aren't you afraid your husband will misunderstand?"

Aveline was speechless.

What kind of strange logic was that?

Rina continued, "You should leave. I can take care of him."

Her attitude softened a bit, but she still didn't like Aveline being there.

"Rina!" Russell frowned. Rina was being incredibly rude.

Rina shot him a hurt look before turning away to sulk.

Aveline smiled faintly and said, "Russ, I'll head out now. Take care and rest well."

Russell replied, "Let me have my driver take you."

"No need. I'm going to the market first," Aveline said with a smile.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Hearing this, Russell smiled. "Alright, be careful on your way.

"Will do."

As Aveline left the room, Rina immediately turned back to Russell. "Russ, who exactly is she? Why does she come here if she's married?"

Russell's expression turned slightly exasperated. Rina, you're not a child anymore. The way you acted

very impolite, you know?"

Rina's eyes suddenly turned red. "Russ, how can you say that about me? I was just thinking about her well-being. What if her husband finds out she came to see you and gets jealous? Won't that jeopardize their marriage?"

Russell said, "Her husband knows she's here."

Lucas definitely knew and was probably fuming about it.

Thinking of Lucas's frustration, Russell's eyes gleamed with a hint of amusement.

Rina was taken aback. She hadn't expected that.

She pouted and said, "I understand, Russ. I won't act like that again. Please don't be mad at me."

Russell's eyes flickered slightly as he said, "Does your family know you're here?"

Rina shook her head. "No, I came straight here as soon as I found out you were hurt."

Russell replied, "You should go back. If your family finds out you're spending time with me, they'll scold you again.

"I'm not afraid!" Rina insisted. "I like being with you, and besides, I'm an adult now. They have no right to tell me what to do!"

Russell sighed helplessly. "Rina, don't be stubborn. Go back, okay?"

Rina found it hard to handle Russell speaking to her like that as if she were his precious little princess. Her face reddened. "Alright, I won't disturb your rest. If you need anything, just call me." "Okay."

As Russell watched her leave, the gentle helplessness on his face vanished instantly. His eyes flashed with a hint of mockery before he closed them.

Aveline went straight to Selena's home.

After entering the password, she found the place in a mess. She stood still, pondering for a moment, then began to tidy up. Once she finished cleaning, she headed to the market.

With Russell's recovery expected to take three months, she was determined to take care of his meals for the foreseeable future.
