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

At the Cooper family residence, Wilfried stared at the live stream, watching the proposal unfold. He lifted his gaze to a framed photo of a smiling, graceful woman.

"Suzy, did you see that? Our daughter... she's getting married. We just found her, and now she's already getting married... I'm so sorry, I've let you down..." He choked up, his voice breaking into sobs. Not far away, the butler sighed heavily, rubbing his temples in exasperation. "He's acting like Miss Aveline is never coming back."

...

As the day wound down, everyone started heading home.

Selena clung to Aveline, her eyes glistening with unshed tears. "Ave, how could you agree so easily? Doesn't that make it too easy for him?"

Aveline looked at her, puzzled. "So, what should I have done?"

Selena huffed. "If you ask me, you should've set up 81 impossible challenges for him. Only if he passed them all should you have said yes! And if he failed even once, forget about him!"

Aveline couldn't help but laugh, shaking her head. "By the time he finished, our kid would probably be starting elementary school."

"Hmph!" Selena grunted, still holding onto her grudge. "I don't care! After everything he put you through, he deserves it!"

She was still bitter about everything Aveline had gone through in the past, unable to let it go.

Aveline didn't argue, knowing Selena's feelings came from a place of care.

She appreciated it.

But Selena didn't dwell on the topic for long and soon asked, "So, where are you two planning to live?"

The Tudors were based in Cloudflare City, but Aveline had only just reunited with her family less than a year ago. Going back to Cloudflare with Lucas now-would her family be okay with that? Aveline herself wasn't ready for such a move. "We'll stay in Labor City for now. Lucas said he's fine commuting between both cities. Cloudflare and Labor City aren't that far apart, so it won't be a problem." Selena nodded thoughtfully. "Alright."

Then, wrapping her arms around Aveline, she sighed. "But I'm going to miss you. Aaron would never agree to go back and forth like that. Boo hoo..." Aveline smiled helplessly. "Well, if he won't, you can always come visit me. After the baby's born, I'll visit you too-we can have fun visiting each other." There wasn't much else they could do for now.

What Aveline hadn't expected was that, in the months that followed, Selena would spend half of every month in Labor City.

Each time, she'd arrive excitedly, only for Aaron to come by later with an exasperated look to pick her up.

This routine repeated itself, and the two of them seemed to enjoy it thoroughly.

That was until Selena got pregnant.

From then on, she was firmly settled at the Fletcher family home.

They were taking no chances with her pregnancy, guarding her closely and ensuring nothing went wrong.

Her freedom vanished overnight.

Whenever she called Aveline, it was to complain between tears, though she had noticeably rounded out from the pregnancy glow.

She'd barely get through her grievances before Aaron would appear wrapping his arms around her from behind and soothing her, doing everything he could to fulfill her every whim. en

He had truly turned her into a pampered princess.

Seeing Selena so cherished brought Aveline a deep sense of happiness for her friend.

Lucas approached from behind, wrapping his arms around her and pressing a soft kiss to her cheek. "What are you thinking about?"

Lucas smiled, his gaze following hers into the fading horizon. "Aveline, I love you."

"And I love you."

As the last rays of the sun disappeared, taking with them the brilliant hues of the sunset, night gently settled in.

Their chapter came to a close, filled with peace and love.
