After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 1014

Selena smiled slightly and said, "I got fired, so I’ll be heading home to wait for my compensation."

Since being let go required severance pay, her coworkers’ faces immediately shifted. They avoided further conversation with her, likely out of fear of getting involved in any legal issues.

Selena didn’t mind. She calmly finished packing her belongings and made a quick call for an assistant to come up and move everything out.

Orion happened to walk out and saw the scene, his brow furrowing deeply. Could it be that this woman really had some kind of powerful background?

Doubts gnawed at him—had he accidentally crossed a rich heiress or some CEO’s wife?

As Selena stepped out of the office, she spotted him and gave a casual wave. "Goodbye!"

She then walked into the elevator, leaving him standing there speechless.

The unease in his gut only intensified.

...

Sitting in her car, Selena dialed a number. "Hello, is this Victoria Patel? This is Selena Quinn. I have some things regarding your husband, Larry Dean, that I’d like to discuss with you. Do you have some time?"

After a brief pause, she hung up and drove to a nearby café.

The café had a pleasant atmosphere, with the rich scent of coffee filling the air. The click of heels echoed as a stylishly dressed woman approached.

"Mrs. Dean?" Selena asked without standing up.

"That’s me." Victoria nodded, her eyes narrowing with suspicion the moment she saw Selena’s face.

Selena noticed the caution and gave her a reassuring smile. "Don’t worry, I’m not a mistress, and I’m not here to gloat. I just have some things I think you should see."
