After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 989

Aaron had left, and Selena had no idea where he’d gone.

She wasn’t familiar with the area or the island’s language—it wasn’t one she knew.

Sitting by the enormous floor-to-ceiling window, she hugged her knees, feeling lost and helpless.
