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

Chapter 106

After dinner, Aveline cleaned the kitchen and then went to the guest bedroom to take a shower and sleep

She had a good night's sleep.

The next day.

When she came out of the guest bedroom, Lucas was already gone.

Aveline stood in the living room, thinking it over. It seemed she needed to change the locks.

At least next time, he wouldn't be able to get in by calling the property manager.

Determined, Aveline contacted a locksmith, and soon someone came to change the lock.

This time, she installed a fingerprint and password lock.

Only she and Selena knew the password.

There was no way anyone else could get in now.

After the locksmith left, she looked at the new lock with satisfaction. and then messaged Selena. "Sweetie, here's the password for my door lock. Remember it."

Selena called her right away.

"Upgrading to something high-tech, huh?"

Aveline opened the door and walked in, laughing. "Now you won't have to knock vn you come over. Isn't that great?"

"Great, great,

na said lazily, sounding like she had just woken

Aveline thought for a moment and asked, "Do you have time today?"

Selena replied, "Yes, do you have plans?

Selena drew in a sharp breath and then said, "I can't believe it, he's from the Skyler family."

Aveline was puzzled. "Is there something special about the Skyler family?"

Selena replied, "Which wealthy family doesn't have a story? Just look at that scumbag he's full of stories, isn't he?"

Aveline's tone was cold. "Let's not talk about such unpleasant people on a good day, okay?"

Selena laughed. "Alright, alright. I come over now and tell you the Skyler family's story."

"Okay."

Aveline finished making breakfast just as Selena arrived.

The two of them sat at the dining table. Selena took a bite of the handmade pancake. "Mmm Ave, If you ever quit your job and start a food stall selling these pancakes, it would definitely be a hit. They're delicious!"

Aveline smiled. "Maybe I'll give it a try someday."

Selena c led and then asked, "What time are you meeting Mr. Skyler?

Aveline replied," At ten."

Selena said, "There's still plenty of time."

She took a sip of milk, cleared her throat, and prepared to dive into long story.

Aveline listened intently. Every wornan enjoyed gossip, right?

"Apparently, Russell Skyler is the illegitimate son of the Skyler family. They only found him a few years ago. He's known for his explosive temper and rebellious nature. The Skyler family can't control him at all. H Aveline blinked. "Where did you hear all this?"

Selena replied, "I know someone in the Skyler family."

Aveline kept quiet and Selena continued, "Even though he's an illegitimate child, the head of the Skyler family really likes him. Nc matter what trouble he causes, even if he creates a huge mess, the family head "Because of this, the Skyler family's matriarch doesn't like him. I've also heard he's survived several assassination attempts."

Aveline was speechless.

She wondered if this was how the wealthy lived. It wasn't just Russell. Being around Lucas felt like having a sword hanging over her head, ready to fall at any moment.

Selena
