Aurora stared at her screen, reviewing each proposal and idea one by one, letting them cycle through her mind.Meanwhile, word of both her proposal and the situation with Linda had already reached Tessa and Grace.At the Walton estate, Grace had decided to stay home that day and was spending time with Tessa.After the incident with Julian, Tessa had stormed out of the house in anger. Now, sitting alone with her mother, things still felt a little tense.Tessa glanced at Grace’s perfectly maintained face. Her mother was quietly sipping coffee and reading, showing no intention of making conversation. Tessa’s hands slowly clenched into fists.Julian had already explained everything to Grace after what happened.Even though she hadn’t said much at the time, Tessa could tell that her mother might have forgiven Julian, but she wasn’t going to forget that easily, especially with Aurora holding the recording—it wasn’t something that could be brushed aside.“Mom, I heard Aurora fired someone f

But Tessa had always been frail growing up.That was why Grace had shown her more patience, more leniency. She couldn’t help it.And then there was the other reason…Grace’s lips pressed into a thin line as she looked at Tessa. “You’ve been thoughtful. I understand. I’ll talk to your sister.”“You’re right, if she wants to earn respect, how her colleagues see her matters. She can’t just charge ahead without considering their views.”A smile bloomed on Tessa’s face. “As long as you understand, that’s enough for me. I only want what’s best for her.”“You’re a good girl, Tessa,” Grace murmured, patting her hand gently. Then her tone shifted. “You’ve always been a good one. I’ve always known that.”“But about Julian… what are your plans moving forward?”That situation had left a splinter in Grace’s heart.After all, they were both her daughters, and now things had turned ugly over a man. What would people say if they found out? It was a stain on the family’s name.Tessa tightened her gri

Grace had always been strict with Aurora.But when it came to Tessa, her feelings leaned more toward compassion than discipline.Tessa was frail since birth, yet always so thoughtful. Whatever she did, she always seemed to consider Grace’s perspective first.Between the two daughters, Grace had often found herself favoring Tessa more, though she would never admit it aloud.She simply wasn’t good at expressing it.Running the company already left her overwhelmed. Most days, she barely had time to breathe, let alone tend to the emotional undercurrents between her children.That was why, at times, she overlooked things she shouldn’t have.“Tessa, whatever happens, if you ever feel wronged, you come to me. I’ll always be on your side,” Grace said gently.Tessa nodded, her voice soft and sweet. “I know, Mom. Thank you.”“Alright, go on now. You’ve got things to do.”Only then did Tessa pull away from her mother’s arms.She left the room and returned to her own, closing the door behind her.

Since the last time they met, there had been no news. It made Joseph anxious. The people he sent out couldn’t get any information on the younger heiress of the Walton family. “Useless bunch,” Joseph muttered under his breath. He paced around the room, going over everything that had happened recently. Something about Aurora didn’t sit right with him. Back when they were together, she had pretended to be so meek and obedient. But the moment they broke up, her true colors began to show. “Aurora, you bitch! If you want to play dirty, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Let’s see who has the last laugh.” Gripping his phone tightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulged. He recalled someone close to Vanguard Group, someone who held a decent position in the company. He was determined to make Aurora pay. There was no way she could be allowed to get this project. Joseph made a call to a senior executive close to Vanguard, instructing him to swap out the voting form Auror

On the other end.Ben returned to his office with his head down and dialed Tessa’s number to report in. “Miss Walton, the task you assigned me has been taken care of.”“You did well,” Tessa replied, her voice filled with satisfaction....After work, Ben grabbed his car keys and brought Aurora to Grand Light Restaurant.Once they entered the private room, two potbellied men were already waiting inside.“Mr. Watson, Mr. Lowe, it’s been a while. I hope you’ve both been well,” Ben greeted them with a smile as he approached.The two men remained seated, looking aloof as they raised their glasses toward him.“We’ve heard that Mr. Smith’s been busy with Vanguard’s project lately. We get it—it’s understandable,” one of them said.Hank chuckled and waved it off, then gave Aurora a look, motioning for her to take a seat. “Not at all. If anything, I’ve been neglectful. I should’ve kept in touch with both of you more often.”Each person at the table had their own agenda. But on the surface, it w

Aurora had no choice but to fall silent, keeping a faint smile on her face. "Alright then, both of you are certainly straightforward men."The main reason we’re here today is to see if we can secure an additional five percent in profit. That’s the lowest Walton Corporation can offer."David and Peter exchanged a look. So that was Walton Corporation’s real intention.At this point, with the Vanguard Group project in play, their products were in demand everywhere. Sales were the least of their concerns. What mattered was who would ultimately secure the deal.And right now, Walton Corporation stood a strong chance.If they did get it, the profit margin could be negotiated.However, drinking was a whole other matter."Miss Walton, matters of business are best discussed after a few rounds," David said, his tone cryptic and slightly displeased.Peter chimed in, "Exactly. We’re just getting started—let’s keep drinking. Only when everyone’s fully loosened up can we really talk frankly."Auro

Lucas spoke with an air of nonchalance. "In that case, this deal..."He didn’t finish the sentence, but David and Peter weren’t fools. They caught the meaning instantly.They turned to Aurora at once. "Miss Walton, we accept all the terms you just mentioned. Did you bring the contract? We’re ready to sign now.""I did."Aurora was still a little dazed. Even with the contract in her hands, it felt somewhat unreal.The rest of the meal went down much easier for her. But for David and Peter, under Lucas’ silent pressure, every bite tasted like ash.Lucas, on the other hand, looked entirely at ease. He’d come here tonight for one reason— to back Aurora.She was his wife. He couldn’t bear to treat her harshly himself, so how could he possibly let a few nobodies get away with it.With that thought, Lucas sent a quick message to Desmond: Look into the Warren and Lowe companies. Create some trouble for them.Desmond didn’t quite understand, but he followed orders without question.They bar

Lucas noticed something was off with Aurora, so when Hank left, he didn’t stop him. Right now, her well-being took priority."You alright?" he asked, leaning down slightly, his voice low with concern.Aurora shook her head, trying to steady herself. "I’m fine. Maybe I just had a bit too much to drink."She pushed his hand away and took a few steps forward, but her body swayed, and she nearly collapsed.Thankfully, Lucas caught her just in time.He could tell she was only trying to act tough.Without another word, he scooped her into his arms, cradling her like a princess.Caught off guard, Aurora let out a soft cry. "What are you doing?""Taking you home, of course."Lucas gently placed her into the passenger seat and fastened her seatbelt with care.As he leaned in, he caught the strong scent of alcohol on her and noticed the warm flush on her cheeks. Unable to resist, he lightly tapped the tip of her delicate nose."You really are a little drunkard. Next time I’m not around, you’re

Wendy avoided her gaze, pretending not to understand what Aurora was saying."What are you talking about, Aurora? I don’t get what you mean."Aurora let out a cold scoff, saying nothing, just watching this woman put on her little act.Her performance was so clumsy that anyone with half a brain wouldn’t fall for it.But of course, someone actually did.Rachel jumped in without a second thought, standing protectively in front of Wendy. She snapped at Aurora, "Don’t make things hard for Wendy. She can say whatever she wants. It’s none of your business."You’re nothing more than Wendy’s shadow anyway."That line struck a nerve. Aurora’s fingers curled into a tight fist.Even Leonard couldn’t help but glance at her.Her face turned grim, eyes locked coldly on Wendy.So, this was what Wendy had been spreading behind her back. And now, with Lucas nowhere around, she didn’t even bother keeping up the act.This was the good little childhood friend Lucas always talked about?Wendy tugged at Ra

Leonard spoke up at just the right moment. "That’s how she shows affection—by staring at someone she likes without blinking."Aurora’s smile widened. With a casual wave, she ordered a few more desserts that kids usually loved.Watching the two of them together, Leonard felt a warmth bloom in his chest, so full it nearly overflowed.That afternoon, the three of them arrived at the biggest mall in the city—Grand Zen Mall.They had a clear goal and headed straight for the clothing section on the third floor.Faced with rows of colorful children’s clothes, Aurora felt a bit overwhelmed by all the choices.Leonard, carrying little Nora in his arms, followed closely beside her."Aurora, should we head straight to the kids’ section?""Yeah, just through the women’s section. The children’s clothes are right past it."The moment Leonard heard the words women’s section, his eyes lit up and he quickly suggested, "Well, since we’re not in a rush this afternoon, do you want to take a look at some

"Balancing adults and children—that’s what real living is about. Just getting back to the essence of life."Aurora's eyes lit up. "You’re absolutely right!"Leonard didn’t say much in response. He knew exactly what kind of design Aurora liked.This concept was grounded in everyday life—something close, something real.That was why he was confident. He knew Aurora would love this design."Alright, I’ll show this to the chairman."Her gaze toward Leonard was filled with appreciation.This was real talent, and someone the Walton Corporation couldn’t afford to lose.Her mother was right. They couldn’t let him go work elsewhere.The two of them went on to discuss more ideas around the project. The deeper the conversation went, the more Aurora admired Leonard.And Leonard felt the same—refreshed, even exhilarated.It had been a long time since he’d met someone who clicked with him so well.Not to mention, people who could keep up with his thought process were rare to begin with.But Aurora

Tolerating her once or twice was fine, but it just became annoying after having to do it too many times.He had his own life too. There was no reason to waste all his time on her. No need at all.After breakfast, Aurora headed to work at Walton Corporation.This time, she drove herself.As usual, the receptionist greeted her politely."By the way, Miss Walton, I saw Mr. Knight waiting in the reception room."Aurora nodded. "Got it."She was a little surprised. The design draft was supposed to take three days—it had only been two. Leonard was already here?That thought stirred a bit of excitement in her.When she entered the lounge, sure enough, Leonard and Nora were already there.Hearing the sound of heels, Nora tensed at first. But once she saw Aurora, her expression clearly relaxed.Leonard’s smile widened slowly as he looked at Aurora."Sorry for bothering you so early."Aurora smiled and countered, "You’re being too polite. Besides, this is my working hour anyway."Leonard cons

But the next morning, when Wendy saw the two of them walk out of the room together, the smile on her face instantly froze.Aurora found her stunned expression amusing.In fact, she even greeted her cheerfully. "Morning. Why’s your mouth hanging open like that?"At that, Wendy quickly tried to manage her expression.She shot a panicked glance at Lucas, only to see him eyeing her with quiet scrutiny.Awkwardly, Wendy explained, "It’s nothing. I just haven’t seen you for a couple of days. I was surprised. I thought you were mad and decided not to come back..."The moment those words landed, the look in Lucas' eyes turned icy cold.He’d just managed to coax Aurora back—what was Wendy trying to do?Sure enough, when Wendy glanced at him again, she got a glare in return.But she didn’t care. With her childhood bond with Lucas, the one who’d end up pushed aside would be Aurora—the outsider who came in later.She was hoping Aurora would lose her temper and go file for divorce right away.Even

Aurora turned her gaze away. "Don’t you know exactly what I mean? You’re even living with her now, and you still say you don’t know?"Men really were all the same, no matter who they were. Even at a time like this, he was still pretending not to get it.Lucas finally realized that Aurora was talking about Wendy.So that was what had been bothering her all along. No wonder she kept picking fights with him. It turned out that his Rora was jealous.The moment he figured it out, a surge of energy coursed through him. He no longer felt weak and powerless—the fire in his eyes was striking."You really don’t know who my true love is?"Aurora looked at him in shock, only to meet his eyes that seemed to hold a teasing glint.There was a sparkle in his gaze, filled with emotions she couldn’t quite decipher.Aurora parted her lips slightly and asked uncertainly, "Am I supposed to know?"Looking at her adorable expression, Lucas pulled her into his arms even tighter, resting his forehead ag

Aurora stood in front of the wardrobe, feeling a little awkward.Looking at Lucas like this, she wasn’t sure what she felt.Usually, he was cold and aloof, like someone untouchable.The only times his emotions ever surfaced around her were in bed.Other than that, he always appeared gentle, calm, and composed.This was the first time she’d ever seen Lucas so helpless.Aurora couldn’t help but lower her voice. "Lucas, let go of me first.""No..."His head felt increasingly foggy, but he was still fully aware of what he was doing.With that thought, he tightened his arms around her.Only then did Aurora realize something wasn’t right.She pushed aside the confusing mess of emotions in her chest, turned around, and pressed her palm to his forehead. She gasped, "You're burning up! Are you running a fever? Did you take any medicine?"Lucas stubbornly clung to his need for an answer. "Don’t be mad at me, okay? Rora, I just want an answer. Nothing else matters.""How can it not matter!" Auro

The manager looked a little puzzled. "Sort of. We do have quite a few conflicting projects with Walton Corporation, but don’t worry, Miss Shaws, we and Walton…"Before he could finish, Wendy cut him off. "I already know the rest. Just assign me to the projects that go head-to-head with Walton Corporation."The manager was stunned.To be honest, Walton Corporation was indeed a formidable competitor. On top of that, they’d recently aligned themselves with Vanguard Group. Their standing in Ravenshore had surged dramatically."Miss Shaws, you haven’t been in the country much, so you might not be too familiar with Walton Corporation. They’re actually quite capable."Wendy replied with obvious displeasure, "So what? If they weren’t, I’d find it boring. I want this project. You don’t need to worry about the rest."Here, Wendy was putting on her full heiress airs.The manager clenched his fists, recalling what the higher-ups had said. In the end, he nodded without realizing it. "Right, got

Now that she’d come to terms with it, Tessa knew she couldn’t let things keep going smoothly for Aurora. She needed to start planning for her own future. Sitting nearby with a soft, pleasant smile, Tessa appeared to everyone else like the embodiment of warmth and grace.But to Aurora, it felt unsettling. That smile of Tessa’s reeked of falsehood—she was definitely up to something. Aurora’s eyes flickered with a trace of coldness, but she pushed down the feeling and stayed quiet. After breakfast, Grace and Aurora shared a car to the office. The ride was surprisingly pleasant, as if last night’s tension had completely evaporated. Aurora liked this kind of peaceful interaction, and she didn’t have the heart to ruin the rare calm. Unfortunately, the moment didn’t last long, before she knew it, they had arrived. Each went to her own office and got to work. Aurora was already well-versed in most of the company’s operations. The only thing left on her plate was evaluating
