Divorced

Chapter 640

“Hmm?” Aveline looked at Selena with a puzzled expression.

Selena just chuckled mischievously. “I’ll tell you later. It’s not the right time now.”

Aveline sighed internally, wondering what had gotten Selena so excited this time. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Maria lifted the bag she had brought and handed it to Aveline. “These are some supplements to help you recover. You need to take them every day. By the time you’re discharged, you’ll be a healthy, glowing beauty.”

Aveline imagined herself gaining weight and winced slightly. “I… don’t really want to get fat.”

Maria laughed heartily. “Don’t worry, I was just teasing. You won’t get fat, but you do need to take these regularly, okay?”

Aveline nodded. “Alright, I will. Thank you for looking out for me, boss.”

Maria playfully rolled her eyes and then asked, “When I came in, you all seemed to be having a lively conversation. What were you talking about? Share it with me so.I can join in the fun.”

Selena spoke up, “Our Ave is filing for divorce.”

“Hmm?” Maria was taken aback. “I thought you were already divorced?”

Selena explained the situation, recounting what had happened and concluding with, “That scumbag actually tricked our Ave with a fake divorce certificate. It’s outrageous!”

Maria’s eyes flickered with a mix of emotions. “I can’t believe something like this happened.”

Aveline nodded. “Yes.”

Sidney’s brows furrowed in concern. “How could he treat you like that?”

His gaze softened as he looked at Aveline, clearly pained by what she had endured.

Maria turned to Russell. “How confident are you about the divorce case?”

Russell replied, “I’ll hire the best divorce lawyer in the industry to help her.”

Maria glanced at him, then smiled. “Ave, you’re lucky to have a friend like Russell who’s willing to go to such lengths for you.”

Aveline said calmly, “Whether it works out or not, I have to try.”

Maria nodded in agreement. “Absolutely. A man like that is no better than trash. You don’t need him in your life!”

After chatting for a while, Maria stood up to leave.

Sidney walked over, his expression serious as he looked at Aveline. “If there’s anything you need me to do, don’t hesitate to ask.”

Aveline smiled gently. “Alright, if I need your help, I’ll definitely let you know.”

Sidney’s eyes lit up with hope. “Good, take care and get some rest. I’ll leave you to it.”

“Take care,” Aveline replied.

As she watched him leave, she turned back to find Selena giving her a teasing smile.

“What’s with that look?” Aveline asked.

Selena shook her head with a smirk before changing the subject. “Are you hungry? What do you want for dinner?”

“I’m not sure. You decide,” Aveline said.

“Got it. I’ll take care of it,” Selena replied, then looked at Russell. “Russ, I’m going to get dinner ready. You stay here with Ave.”

“Sure,” Russell agreed with a nod.

Selena quickly left the room.

Russell watched her go before turning to Aveline. “How’s Sidney’s mother doing now?”

Aveline replied, “She’s out of immediate danger, but her condition keeps worsening.”

Russell nodded thoughtfully. “She needs plenty of rest and care. You should encourage him to spend more time with her.”

Aveline caught the underlying tone in his words and nodded. “I will.”

Just then, Russell’s phone rang. He glanced at the screen, his expression flickering for a moment before he answered. “Hello?”

A tearful voice came through the line. “Russ, please help me!”

It was Rina, her voice trembling with distress.
