After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 995

"What’s going on?" Aaron’s voice was sharp as he hung up the phone, quickly striding over.

Selena raised her arm, revealing a scrape near her elbow where the skin had been scratched, a faint trace of blood seeping from the mark where Lila had pinched her.

Her face was cold as she spoke, "Aaron, it’s clear your sister doesn’t like me. First, she criticizes the gift I gave her, then belittles my background, and now she’s physically hurt me. Since I’m so unwelcome here, I’ll just leave."

With that, she turned and started walking away.

Aaron’s expression darkened instantly.

He shot a glare at Lila. "What do you think you’re doing?"

Lila’s eyes filled with tears, and she shook her head pitifully. "I didn’t hurt her, I swear! She misunderstood. Brother, I didn’t do anything."

But Aaron wasn’t interested in hearing her excuses.

Without another word, he quickly followed after Selena.

"Brother!" Lila called out desperately, trying to stop him, but he didn’t even glance back.

One of the servants approached to comfort her. "Miss Lila, please don’t cry. It’s not good for your health."

Lila had congenital heart issues and had spent years abroad undergoing treatment. Her condition had only recently stabilized.

Biting her lip in frustration, Lila’s eyes filled with bitterness. That woman had stolen her brother’s affection. She wouldn’t let her get away with it.

...

Selena strolled casually toward the front door when Aaron caught up to her a few moments later.

"Let me see your arm," he said, gently taking hold of it.

"It’s nothing," Selena replied. "Let’s just say I got bitten by a dog."

Aaron frowned. "That’s not the same. A dog bite needs rabies shots."

Selena gave him a playful shove, but as she looked into his handsome face, she suddenly said, "Your sister… she’s into you."
