Divorced

Chapter 338

“Hello?” The man’s voice was deep and magnetic but his tone was cold.

Maria replied leisurely, “Boss, Aveline is planning to leave Cloudflare City. If you want to do something, you better hurry.”

Lucas‘ face darkened at her words. “Did she tell you that herself?”

“Mm–hmm.”

“Did she mention where she plans to go?” Lucas asked.

Maria responded, “I’ve only known her for two days. I was surprised she even agreed to meet me. How could she tell me something so personal?”

Lucas‘ voice turned icy, “Then you better work hard, or I’ll dock your year–end bonus.”

With that, he hung up.

Maria glared at her phone.

Such a wicked capitalist!

Always exploiting the weak, helpless, and pitiful like them! She cursed him to never get to reconcile

with his wife!

Back at home, Aveline started cooking and then sent a message to Russell.

“Russ, is it convenient to visit tonight?”

Russell replied, “Yes, it’s convenient.”

She put her phone away, packed the cooked meal and headed to the hospital.

When she opened the door to the ward, she saw Russell slowly making his way to the bed. The room was empty, and he seemed to be struggling to walk.

Aveline hurried over to support him. “Russ, why are you out of bed?”

It takes a hundred days to heal from bone injuries. Getting up so soon was not good for his recovery.

Russell smiled slightly. “Lying down all the time is making my limbs atrophy. I need some exercise.”

Noticing the concern on her face, he remarked, “Lucas must be filled with regret by now.”

Aveline paused, helping him sit on the bed before releasing her hold. “Let’s see if you like tonight’s dinner,” she said, changing the topic.

There was no need to continue the previous conversation.

Russell’s eyes flickered slightly, then he nodded. “Alright.”

Aveline set up the small table, opened the food container, and arranged the dishes inside.

“Hmm?” Aveline looked up at him in confusion. “Why?”

Russell said, “I have to go abroad. I don’t know when I’ll be back. If I could, I would want to your cooking.

As he spoke, his gaze was fixed intently on her. They were both adults; some things didn’t need to be said out loud.

Aveline’s eyelashes fluttered slightly. “That’s really unfortunate but take care of yourself while you’re abroad.”

Russell looked at her steadily, noting her calm expression. He lowered his gaze slightly. “I will.”

Aveline smiled faintly. “Then I’ll be going now.”

Russell said, “Why the rush? Let’s chat a bit.” +

What could they talk about? Aveline felt there wasn’t much to discuss with him. However, since he suggested it, it wouldn’t be polite to refuse. After all, they were friends now.

Hearing this, Aveline was momentarily stunned, then she shook her head. “No.”

It seemed she hadn’t encountered Darren again.
