Chapter 1286

Author: Love Berries
She remembered that when she was young, she had never been the type to lose her head over a man. So why was Aurora defending one so fiercely now?

If that was the case, then there was no way she could ever trust the company in Aurora’s hands.

If Aurora had known what Grace was thinking, she would have scoffed.

She already had her own studio, and as for Walton Corporation—she had no interest whatsoever.

The only reason she had demanded her shares back in the first place was to claim what was rightfully hers. Beyond that, she truly wanted nothing more to do with Walton.

Even if the entire company were handed over to Tessa, she wouldn’t care.

“Do you really have to speak to me like this?” Grace’s fists clenched, her own temper simmering. For her own daughter to side with a man against her—it was almost beyond belief.

But Aurora didn’t hesitate.

She lifted her chin slightly, her voice steady. “The way you speak to Lucas is the way I’ll speak to you. At the very least, he doesn’t deserve to

    But Aurora’s anger still hadn’t eased.After being kept in the dark for so long, was she supposed to feel like nothing more than a fool?"When you hid it from me back then, was it because you thought I only married you for your money?" Her sharp gaze locked onto Lucas, searching his eyes for the truth.But Lucas shook his head firmly. "I swear, that was never on my mind. I promised my father I wouldn’t expose my identity lightly. In this position, I have to think of the company.""That’s the only reason I didn’t tell you. I’ve had too many enemies to face."Aurora suddenly thought of something. Her eyes narrowed as she asked, "Then Megan knows who you are, doesn’t she?"Lucas froze on the spot.He hadn’t expected her to connect it so quickly, but faced with her steady gaze, he couldn’t lie. "Yes. She knows my identity too."At that, Aurora let out a bitter laugh.So, everyone else knew the truth about him—everyone but her. She alone had been left in the dark."Fine."The smile on her f

    "The posts online weren’t wrong. I am the CEO of Vanguard Group.""Then that settles it, doesn’t it?" Aurora cut him off at once. "As for the rest, I don’t want to hear it. I just needed to confirm this one thing.""I can explain, Aurora."But she refused to give him the chance, not even wanting to look at his face. "What’s the point of explaining now? A lie is still a lie. And after all this time together, you should know better than anyone that the thing I despise most is being lied to."Lucas’ lips parted slightly, but no words came.Of course, he knew deception was what she hated most.Every time he thought about what he had done, he wished he could go back and slap himself.But what was done was done. The only thing left was to try and make it right."I know I was wrong, but the only thing I can do now is make amends." He stepped closer, his expression earnest. "I hope you’ll give me that chance."Aurora slowly finished the food in front of her, his words leaving her in a daze."

    What mattered most now was how Lucas would answer."What’s for dinner?" Aurora leaned against the kitchen doorway, her tone casual."All your favorites," Lucas replied without thinking. "Spare rib and corn soup, braised eggplant, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and I’ve got dessert ready too."They were all simple homestyle dishes.But Aurora loved them, especially when Lucas cooked. They always carried the warmth of home.Every time he made these meals, she would clear her plate without wasting a bite.And Lucas had once told her that watching her eat like that gave him a great sense of satisfaction.Now, remembering those words, Aurora almost laughed. Was it really satisfaction or just his way of easing his guilt?Keeping her expression steady, she left the kitchen, washed her hands in the bathroom, then settled on the sofa, flipping through the dull TV channels with the remote.Lucas noticed every move. It confirmed his fear—she must have seen what was online. This time, no matt

    Since she didn’t want to drink, that was the end of it.On the way home, Aurora was still turning over everything about Lucas in her mind.She couldn’t be sure if what she saw online was true or false, but she knew one thing—if she didn’t get an answer tonight, there was no way she’d rest easy.She was never good at bottling things up. If she went to bed with doubts hanging over her, she wouldn’t sleep a wink.When she arrived home, she noticed the lights in the villa were already on. She immediately understood—Lucas must have come back.Glancing at her phone, she saw that ever since the report had appeared online, she hadn’t received a single message.So, did Lucas really not know about it?That didn’t make sense. If he truly was the CEO of Vanguard Group, surely his people would have seen the news and told him.How could there be no reaction at all?Thinking back, Aurora suddenly remembered all those times she went to Vanguard Group for meetings, only to find Lucas there.He had brus

    The boss was working so hard—how could an employee like Ian have any excuse to slack off?When it came time to leave that evening, Ian was just about to say goodbye when he noticed a distant look on Aurora’s face.He felt a flicker of doubt. Had she been pretending in front of him this whole time? Was this side of her the real one?He stopped in his tracks.Aurora leaned back in her chair, still turning over in her mind the post she had seen that morning.Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Ian hadn’t left and asked, "Why are you still here? The day’s over, isn’t it?""Boss, are you hiding something from me?"Aurora froze at the words.She sat up straight, looking at him in confusion. "What do you mean? What could I possibly be hiding from you?""But today, before work and even now, your mood has been off. There’s a lost look on your face. Not even when we first started the studio did I see you look like this. I think whatever it is must have hit you hard."As he spoke, Ian felt

    "No, nothing. My chat with her’s been quiet the whole time.""Alright, that’s all."With that, Lucas hung up, leaving Megan staring blankly at her phone in bed.She ruffled her messy hair, confused as she looked at the screen.What on earth was wrong with her cousin now?After grumbling to herself for a moment, she flopped back down and buried her head under the covers.Today was supposed to be a rare day off. Ever since the studio opened, she’d been busy nonstop, and now her cousin had to disturb her again.The thought made her impatient, but since it was family, she didn’t complain further.Little did she know, while she snored away, her cousin was pacing the floor in frustration.Even though Lucas knew Aurora hadn’t messaged Megan, he couldn’t shake his unease. Should he take the initiative and confess?But was now the right time? Even if he admitted everything, would Aurora forgive him?Or would she blame him for hiding it from her all along?No, that wasn’t the point. Why had he h
