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

When the servers saw that Aveline still hadn't shown them an invitation, they stepped forward to drag her away. Just then, someone s and pulled Aveline behind him.

"Mr. Skyler." the servers immediately became respectful upon seeing the newcomer.

Russell looked at them coolly. "What were you planning to do to my guest, hmm?"

The servers were horrified. "I'm sorry, Mr. Skyler. We didn't know this lady was with you."This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Russell's tone turned icy. "Get out of my sight, and don't let me see you on this yacht again!"

The two servers hurried away, silently cursing whoever told them there was an uninvited guest. They had gotten scolded for nothing!

Russell turned to see Aveline looking a bit dazed. He smiled. "What a coincidence, we meet again."

Aveline thought to herself that on a yacht this size, it wasn't that surprising to run into someone again. But he had just helped her out, so she smiled slightly. "Thank you."

Russell's charmingly mischievous face lit up with a teasing smile. Despite his suit, he still exuded a roguish charm. "Is a verbal thank you all I get? If it weren't for me, you might have been thrown into the sea to

As he said the last few words, he leaned in closer, his tone chilling.

Aveline instinctively took a step back. "Sir..."

But before she could finish, someone grabbed her wrist with a grip so strong it felt like her bones might break.

"Ow!" Aveline gasped and turned to face Lucas' stern face.

"What are you doing?" Aveline asked in a low voice.

Her heart ached uncontrollably as she remembered how he stood close by with Sophia, watching her being questioned in public.

"Weren't you indifferent to how I was treated a moment ago? Now why are you here? To make yourself known?" Aveline cursed him in her thought.

Lucas ignored her and looked at Russell. "Mr. Skyler, if you have business with my wife, you can discuss it with me directly."

Russell narrowed his eyes, the teasing smile on his lips deepening." But I just said she's my date."

Lucas' voice was cold and detached. "She hasn't agreed to be your date."

"Is that so?" Russell raised an eyebrow and turned to Aveline. "Miss Young, what do you think?"

Lucas' gaze also fell on her, and his grip on her wrist tightened slightly. Her choice had always been him! It had always been this way, and he believed today would be no different. However, Aveline forcefully pulled her hand away and walked to Russell's side. "Yes, I am this gentleman's date."

Lucas' expression instantly turned cold, and an invisible pressure filled the air around him, making the atmosphere heavy and tense.

Aveline straightened up, realizing that Lucas was angry.

But so what? Russell had helped her out, and she couldn't let him down.

As for Lucas... Ha! Who cares about him?
