Divorced 141
Chapter 141
At that moment, Laicas suddenly turned his head slightly, causing Aveline’s intended kiss on the corner of his lips to land directly on his mouth.
Aveline froze and quickly sat back down, her ears turning red.
Lucas‘ eyes darkened as he looked at her. “Is that all?”
Aveline responded, “Lucas, don’t push your luck.”
But Lucas chuckled softly. “Aveline, you’re the one trying to please me right now. Are you sure you want to talk to me like that?”
Aveline’s gaze turned cold as she looked at him.
He always used the threat of divorce against her but never followed through. What exactly did he want?
Lucas watched her leisurely as if he was certain she would give in.
Aveline, however, scoffed and turned her head away, ignoring him.
Lucas‘ expression hardened.
He stared at her face for a long time before finally starting the car and driving away.
The car was filled with a stifling atmosphere, making it hard to breathe.
Aveline lowered the car window, but within seconds, it was rolled back up.
Aveline’s mouth twitched in irritation.
Expressionless, she lowered the window again, only for it to be raised back up by Lucas, who this time locked it in place.
Aveline was speechless.
Was this man really that childish?
When they finally arrived at Maple Garden, Aveline opened the door to get out, only to find the door locked.
“Lucas, what exactly do you want?” Aveline asked, trying to stay.
calm..
Lucas said nothing, playing with a cigarette in his hand, and closed. his eyes.
Aveline looked at his sharp profile, feeling a strong urge to punch him.
By now, the sun was setting, and the sky was gradually being. enveloped by the night.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
The car’s interior was growing darker.
Staying in the car wasn’t a solution.
That jerk was just waiting for her to give in!
And give in she must.
She gently took his hand, her voice softening, “Lucas, let’s get out of the car. I’m hungry. Let’s go back and have dinner.”
“We?”
Lucas widened his eyes at her words. In the dim light, she couldn’t read his expression.
“Yes, it’s quite late. You helped me today, so it’s only right to invite you to dinner.
Aveline nodded, looking sincere.
Lucas‘ tense expression softened a bit. He pressed a button, and the car locks clicked open.

Aveline immediately let go of his hand, opened the door, and got out.
Ah… The air outside was so refreshing!
Lucas looked at his now–empty hand, frowning in displeasure.
When he looked up, he saw Aveline quickly heading towards the apartment building.
Heh!
Little liar!
Lucas was about to get out of the car when his phone rang. He looked at the screen and saw that it was Sophia calling.
“Hello, Sophia,” he answered.
However, a different woman’s voice came through the phone.” Lucas, where are you? Come to the hospital quickly, Sophia tried to kill herself!”
Lucas‘ expression instantly turned tense.
He closed the car door and said in a low voice, “I’m on my way.”
Aveline entered the elevator and, noticing Lucas wasn’t there, assumed he was parking the car. She didn’t wait for him and went straight upstairs.
At her apartment door, she covered the keypad to prevent Lucas. from seeing her new code, then turned around. “You…”
There was no one behind her.
He hadn’t come up yet.
She wondered, “Does it really take that long to park a car?”
Aveline pressed her lips together, dismissing it from her mind, and went inside.
