After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back (Aveline and Lucas) novel Chapter 932

Maria smiled faintly and waved at Sidney, like greeting an old friend.

Sidney, however, coldly averted his gaze and walked off with Diana.

Maria finally got a clear look at the girl, who was undeniably beautiful.

Herman got into the car and asked, "Miss Conner, where do you live?"

Maria gave him the address.

"Thank you, Mr. Evans."

Herman chuckled lightly. "You're Tiana's friend, no need to be so formal with me."

Maria's smile became a bit more relaxed. "Tiana is Tiana, and you're you. It's not the same."

Herman was momentarily at a loss for words.

He glanced at Maria again.

Earlier, she'd been quiet, almost reserved.

But now, in this more private moment, he realized she was different from most people.

She didn’t seem to care about others’ opinions, acting on her own whims with a laid-back, carefree attitude. It was as though she possessed a truly free spirit.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance to her complex.

Maria got out of the car. "Goodbye, Mr. Evans."

Herman nodded slightly, watching as she walked away.

Just then, a middle-aged couple rushed toward Maria, grabbing her by both arms.

"Mary! I finally found you! I’m your mother!" The woman clung to her like she'd never let go, tears streaming down her face.

Maria frowned, pulling against their grip but unable to free herself.

She snapped, "Let go of me! I don’t know you!"

The woman cried even harder. "You are Mary! You’re my daughter! If you don’t believe us, we can go to the hospital for a DNA test!"

The man’s face darkened as he stared at Maria for a long moment, before turning to drag the woman away.

But Herman wasn't letting them off that easily. "You're not getting away!"

Right then, the sound of police sirens filled the air, and the couple's faces paled.

They hadn't expected the police to arrive so quickly.

With Maria's statement, the couple was swiftly taken away by the police. Since more details were needed, Maria and Herman were also asked to go to the station in a patrol car.

"Are you alright?" Herman asked.

Maria shook her head. "I'm fine. Thank you."

Herman nodded. "Don't mention it. You're Tiana’s friend. If I didn’t help, she’d have yelled at me for sure."

Maria smiled faintly, but a flicker of coldness passed through her eyes.

So, they had found her. But who gave them her address? And how were they so sure she was the daughter they abandoned at the orphanage all those years ago?
