With his bruised and swollen face, Joseph looked even more ridiculous standing next to them, like a clown who had stumbled into the wrong show. And he knew it. The realization hit him hard as he clenched his fists, eyes fixed on how perfectly Aurora and Lucas stood together. Out of nowhere, jealousy surged through him. "Aurora, you dumped me for some pretty-faced nobody? He doesn’t have a shred of background!" He jabbed a finger at himself. "Don’t forget, I have Hunt Enterprises behind me. What does he have? One day, you’re going to regret this!" He looked almost manic, flailing and shouting as if threats could undo everything. But Aurora didn’t flinch. Her eyes locked on his raised hand, her voice sharp and cold. "Who are you pointing at? "This was my choice. Show some respect. And stop waving Hunt Enterprises around like it makes you someone. Without it, you are nothing." "Even without Hunt Enterprises, I’m still better than that nobody next to you! He’s nothing!" Jo

She understood what Lucas meant—he wanted to protect her. But she wasn’t someone who would always stand behind a man. Besides, this was between her and Joseph. It needed an ending. On the other side of the venue, Grace had already been informed about what was going on between Aurora and Joseph. Someone asked if she wanted to step in, but Grace stopped them. "This is Aurora’s business. I believe she can handle it." At tonight’s banquet, with so many eyes watching, this was Aurora’s first real moment in the spotlight—a bold debut. Tessa stood among the crowd, enjoying the drama. The messier it got, the happier she was. She was counting on Joseph, useless as he was, not to let her down. Julian watched quietly from the sidelines. Ever since Aurora had exposed that recording, what little affection he had left turned mostly into resentment. What did beauty matter, if a woman’s mind was always calculating? A woman like her, even if he married her, would never give him a

But he never got an answer. The security guards dragged him out before he could. Even as he was being taken away, Joseph was still shouting, "No, Aurora Walton, I don’t believe it! I know you still have feelings for me!"You’re with that pretty boy now, but you’ll never be happy. You’ll regret it!" His voice lingered in the air, echoing in Aurora’s ears. She frowned slightly, feeling a little annoyed deep down. Lucas wrapped his arm around her shoulder and gently comforted her. "Alright, don’t let trash like that upset you. He’s not worth it." "You’re right." Aurora smiled and turned to the other guests. "Sorry for letting you see such a scene. It’s a personal matter, nothing to dwell on. Let’s just laugh it off and not let it spoil the mood." "Yes, yes, Miss Aurora handled it perfectly. That’s exactly how you deal with a man like that." Her colleagues were all a little shocked by her decisive approach, whispering among themselves. "Looks like Aurora was way too soft o

"Madam Grace is really blessed. With your younger daughter securing this project, it looks like we’ll all be counting on you in the future." "Oh, not at all," Grace replied politely. All evening, similar compliments had been endless. But no one mentioned the situation between Aurora and Joseph in front of her. No one wanted to be that foolish. After all, things between them had already soured publicly at the banquet. Between Hunt Enterprises and the Walton Corporation, everyone knew which held more weight. Rather than waste time on irrelevant gossip, it was smarter to strike up a conversation with Grace. Who knew? Getting on her good side might just lead to smoother business dealings down the line. Tessa withdrew her gaze and exhaled slowly. The scale in their mother’s heart had already tipped. If she didn’t start fighting for herself now, there would be no place for her in the Walton family at all. “Aurora, you must be feeling proud, aren’t you?”With that thought,

From the start of Grace’s birthday celebration, Julian had already sensed that Aurora’s sister was no easy woman to deal with. And now, hearing her speak like this in front of so many people only confirmed what he had suspected all along. But Aurora didn’t seem the least bit rattled. She smiled easily. "You’re giving me too much credit, sister." "I don’t think he’s chasing after me. After all, I saw him bothering you just now as well. He’s always been a flirt. That’s just who he is." Tessa’s expression faltered, her calm gaze flashing briefly with panic. "He’s your ex, not mine. What does that have to do with me? You must’ve been mistaken. I’ve never even met him before." "You better hope I was mistaken," Aurora said quietly as she stepped closer, leaning in to whisper at her ear. "You really think I don’t know what you’ve been up to? I know every filthy little thing you’ve done. If you don’t want me dragging it all to Mother, I suggest you start behaving." Aurora smiled

Aurora's eyes widened slightly. Now she understood why Tessa had insisted they all take a glass of wine. This wasn’t about making peace—it was just the opening move. The entire front of Lucas’ chest was soaked. With a loud clatter, the tray hit the floor. "I'm so sorry, sir! I didn’t mean to… I’m really sorry, are you alright?" the server stammered. The commotion instantly drew everyone's attention, heads turning toward them. Before Aurora could say a word, Tessa stepped forward and began scolding the server. "How are you even working here? You can’t hold a tray of drinks properly? You still want your bonus this month? Who’s in charge of you?" Aurora frowned at her sister’s performance, something about it feeling deeply off. "That’s enough, Tessa. What’s the point of yelling at him? What’s done is done." Tessa slapped her forehead, as if only now realizing that. "You’re right, I’ll take Lucas to change clothes right away. “Good thing Julian brought a spare suit. If y

"Sister, everyone’s watching right now," Aurora said calmly, her tone even but edged with warning. "So let me say this one last time, stop testing my limits. Like earlier... you must know why the seam on my gown was coming loose, right? I’m sure you have a pretty good idea." She looked at Tessa with deliberate ease, waiting to see how she’d respond. "I..." Tessa’s gaze wavered. She couldn’t meet Aurora’s eyes. She’d assumed Aurora hadn’t noticed the little trick she pulled earlier—that was why she’d acted so brazenly. But clearly, Aurora had just been saving it for the right moment. Julian, meanwhile, also recognized the server who’d caused the spill. Wasn’t that the same man Tessa had whispered to earlier? His eyes narrowed slightly. So, his fiancée wasn’t quite the gentle, graceful woman people claimed she was. How interesting. Tessa’s evasive eyes didn’t go unnoticed. Her guilt was written all over her face. No one here was stupid.After seeing this, how coul

The moment those words left Grace’s mouth, it hit Tessa like a bolt of lightning. How could she not understand what her mother truly meant? It was obvious now that Grace had started to doubt her. She must have believed at least some of what had been said. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have handled her this way. "No... no, please, Mom. I don’t want to rest... I just want to stay by your side," Tessa pleaded, voice trembling, eyes filled with tears. But Grace turned away, refusing to even look at her tear-streaked face. Aurora stood to the side, a faint, cold smile tugging at her lips as she watched the drama unfold. On the surface, it looked like their mother had taken a stand and punished Tessa. But Aurora saw through it. This wasn’t justice—this was protection, plain and simple. If Grace truly wanted the truth, there would’ve been a proper investigation, not this quiet dismissal. Aurora’s heart sank. Even now, even after everything, Grace was still shielding Tessa.

But Lucas wasn’t falling for her tricks anymore. His face remained cold as he said, "Stay a couple more days if you want, but once you're done having your fun, go back.""You’re kicking me out?"Wendy stared at him in disbelief, her face full of shock. They had known each other since childhood—was that bond really worth nothing now?Lucas stayed unmoved, firm in his stance.No matter how much Wendy pouted or begged this time, he didn’t say another word.In the end, the whole scene ended in frustration, with Wendy stewing in her own anger.Lucas had no appetite left either.

When Aurora got up, she saw Wendy sitting at the dining table, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Lucas."Wow, Lukey, I didn’t expect to taste your cooking again today. I’ve missed it so much!"Wendy exclaimed dramatically, "You have no idea, the stuff overseas is practically inedible. None of it tastes right. Home is still the best. And especially Lukey’s cooking."But Lucas remained expressionless. "Don’t touch anything. Wait till your sister-in-law gets up."Wendy pouted but, under his gaze, reluctantly put down the piece of fried egg.From the corner of her eye, she saw Aurora.The woman didn’t say a word. She just stood there quietly, like an outsider watching it all unfold.Wendy then walked over to her and, feigning intimacy, hooked her arm through Aurora’s. "My dear sis-in-law, look at all the delicious food Lukey made. Don’t stay upset anymore."If you ask me, you really are lucky. Lukey’s looks and background are both top-tier, and he even knows how to cook. Isn’t that the

Lucas watched Aurora’s retreating figure but didn’t follow. He knew what she needed right now wasn’t more pressure, but space to cool down. If he pushed too hard, it would only make things worse. His fists clenched tightly at his sides. Only when the guest room door slammed shut with a loud bang did he snap out of his daze. Letting out a long, heavy sigh, he turned and headed toward the master bedroom. Meanwhile, in the guest room, Aurora sat in silence, unable to shake the frustration tightening in her chest. She had told herself from the very beginning to never believe a man’s promises. She and Lucas had always been about mutual benefit, and nothing more. And yet, something had started to shift. Something she hadn’t accounted for. Things were slipping out of her control, veering in a direction she didn’t expect and wanted.She raised a hand to her chest, fingers pressing lightly against her heart. That steady thrum felt more and more unmanageable. Why had she go

Wendy caught the sharp glint in Lucas’ eyes and finally realized that he was genuinely angry. She clicked her tongue and said casually, “Alright then. You two talk it out. Just don’t fight because of me.” The chill in Aurora’s gaze deepened. She gave a cold scoff and turned to leave, ready to walk out and give them all the space they needed. But Lucas didn’t let go. His hand remained firmly locked around her wrist. Aurora struggled, but his grip didn’t budge. Her voice turned icy. “Let go. Go be with her. Don’t touch me.” A vein pulsed at Lucas’s temple, his jaw tight as he stared at her lips moving—every word cutting deeper than the last. He wanted to shut her up right now. And behind them, Wendy stood with her back turned, the corners of her mouth lifting slowly into a smug smile. “Oh, my dear sister-in-law, this is only the beginning. You’ll get used to it, won’t you? Watching your man slip right through your fingers.”The thought made her giddy. Her steps grew l

“It’s fine. No need to explain.”Aurora looked at the two of them standing together—the tall, striking man and the delicate, sweet-looking woman beside him.They looked oddly well-matched together.In that moment, it felt like something hollowed out inside her chest.She couldn’t even describe what she was feeling.Wendy stepped forward, her eyes quickly scanning Aurora’s face, a flicker of jealousy passing through her gaze. Then she smiled and said sweetly, “So you’re back, my dear sister-in-law.“Don’t get the wrong idea. There’s nothing between Lukey and me. We’ve known each other since we were kids. He brought me home because I didn’t have anywhere else to go.”Her hand was still linked around Lucas’ arm as she glanced up at him, urging him to speak. “Lukey, go on and explain things to her. She looks really upset.”“Since childhood?”Wendy blinked innocently. “Of course. Didn’t Lukey ever mention me to you?”Aurora raised an eyebrow.That one sentence lit a fire in her chest she c

She couldn’t help wondering—what did his wife look like? What kind of woman was she? The man she’d had her eyes on for so long, the one she grew up with, had been taken by someone else just like that. How could she possibly be willing to accept it? Today, she was determined to meet this so-called wife. After dinner, Lucas offered to drive Wendy back. But she refused. “Lukey, I hardly ever come to Ravenshore, and you’re really going to make me stay in a hotel the whole time?” She sat in the backseat, turning her head toward the window, lips slightly pouting. It wasn’t that she didn’t want to sit in the front. She had tried until Lucas’s reaction made it very clear she shouldn’t. The moment she’d reached for the passenger door, he had snapped, telling her that seat was reserved for his wife. She would never forget how he’d shut her down when she joked, “Not even me? I’m not like those other women. We grew up together!” She’d teased him playfully. “Come on, Lukey, sav

Watching the scene unfold, Lucas felt a flicker of dissatisfaction. He was beginning to think it might be time to have a serious conversation with Kenneth about his sister’s entitled behavior. But before he could dwell on it, Wendy switched gears with surprising ease. She held up a shirt with a bright smile. “Lukey, look at this one! I think it’s perfect for you!” She grabbed a matching tie and pair of pants. “And this tie and these trousers—now it’s a full set!” Lucas gave them a once-over, his eyes narrowing slightly. They were exactly his style—simple, sharp, and the kind of clothes he usually wore. Just as he was about to pay, Wendy beat him to it. “I’ve got it. Lukey, this is my gift to you.” For some reason, that warmed him more than he expected. After all, even Aurora had never really bought him anything like this. "Alright," he said, a rare trace of softness in his tone. "Looks like you’ve grown up." Wendy grinned and leaned in playfully. “Of course I have

After the server brought over the extra pudding, she bent down with a patient smile and started chatting with Nora. She gently reminded her not to eat too much at once, saying she could finish this one and come back next time for more. If she liked it, they’d be happy to have her again. In the warm sunlight, the delicate lines of Aurora’s profile seemed to glow, especially when she spoke to Nora—her whole face lit up with a soft, heartfelt smile. Leonard found himself staring, momentarily dazed. His heart skipped a beat without warning. Inside the restaurant, everything else faded into the background. In his eyes, there was only Aurora and his little sister. The warmth in Aurora’s voice, the kindness in her expression—it all made the corners of Leonard’s mouth lift, almost involuntarily. Maybe it was time for Nora to have a little more contact with the outside world. …“Lukey, you’re always working,” Wendy pouted, her full lips forming a perfect little frown, the innoce
Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Chapter 152
No matter what Aurora said, Nora remained quiet and unresponsive, her expression blank. She clutched a bunny plush in her arms and kept herself hidden behind Leonard, entirely in her own world. Even so, Aurora showed no sign of frustration. If anything, her eyes softened with even more sympathy. Leonard couldn't help but speak up. "Aurora, it’s alright. You should go ahead and eat. Don’t worry about my sister. I’ll take care of her. If she wants to eat, she’ll eat." Seeing how patient Aurora was made Leonard feel a little embarrassed. Part of him was surprised. But he couldn’t help but wonder—was Aurora really this kind and compassionate, or was it just a front because of their business partnership? With that thought lingering, he gave her a more thoughtful look. Aurora returned to her seat, a little reluctantly. At first, she’d wanted to get close to Leonard for work reasons, to build a stronger partnership. But now, after seeing what Nora had been through at such a
