Author: Love Berries
“Aurora, you look pale. Did you realize something?”

Megan immediately noticed the change in her friend’s expression.

Aurora took a deep breath, suppressing her suspicions for the moment.

“It's only a hunch right now. I don't have any proof.”

“So what’s your plan?”

“I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. But first, I need to make sure Chuck leaves Walton Corporation.”

A cold glint flashed in Aurora's eyes.

She was not someone who'd let others walk all over her.

Just then, the waiter arrived

  • Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO   Chapter 2578

    For some reason, a faint unease lingered in Edwin’s chest.It felt as though someone was watching him.And why had the doctor suddenly spilled everything so quickly?By the time Edwin tried to stop him, it was already too late.On Lucas’ end, he had already captured everything he needed.There was no reason to stay and watch any longer.All he had to do was present it to his grandfather the next day.Even if Philip favored Edwin, the evidence would speak for itself.Staying any longer would only risk exposure.Now wasn’t the time to tear things open between them.Lucas knew exactly where the line was.So, while Edwin’s attention remained fixed on the doctor, he slipped away silently, leaving the place without a trace.The subordinate, however, felt something was off.He turned his head to look but saw nothing.Frowning, he scratched his head. Had he imagined it?When he turned back, Edwin was still pressing the doctor.It was clear his boss had already made up his mind; there was nothi

    Why were they still circling around the point?How long had this dragged on already?Even the subordinate couldn’t help rubbing his forehead.At times, he couldn’t help wondering if something was off with his boss.The doctor had made himself clear that he hadn’t done anything, yet they were still going in circles.Finally, Edwin cut to the point. His gaze turned vicious as he fixed it on the doctor.In his view, the man’s defenses had already been worn down.Now was the perfect moment to strike.“Tell me, did Lucas ask you anything important?”“Yes, he did.”The doctor nodded as he spoke.Even he felt a sense of relief. After all that back and forth, they had finally reached the real question.“I knew it. So, what did you tell him?”Edwin’s voice rose sharply.The sudden shift startled even the subordinate.He hadn’t expected his boss to turn like that so quickly.“He brought people with him that night. He was about to question me. But then your man showed up and got me out.”The doct

    He acted on impulse, one thought chasing the next, his behavior always unpredictable.There was no pattern to anything he did; he simply did as he pleased. In that sense, he was the most unrestrained man in the family.At times, Lucas almost envied that.Of course, it was nothing he would ever show.After all, Edwin was still nothing more than an aimless drifter.He never considered anyone else when he acted.Everything was done on a whim.It wasn’t the kind of life Lucas wanted. What he envied was that careless ease.The doctor, pinned by the grip on his jaw, froze for a moment, unable to react.Edwin stared at him coldly.“I believe you’re a reasonable man. Do I really have to spell everything out for you?“Just tell me the truth. Why hide it?”His voice turned sharp. “Don’t tell me you think keeping your mouth shut for Lucas will somehow keep you safe.”That made even the doctor hesitate.“That’s not it… I don’t understand what you mean.”His words came out slurred, saliva nearly sp

    “I don’t understand what you’re trying to do. Are you actually trying to help me, or are you just trying to get something out of me? “Why not just say it plainly? Sometimes I really can’t follow the way your mind works.“Is this how people like you always act?”By the end, the doctor’s voice had risen into a low shout.He realized there was no way to communicate with Edwin at all.They lived in completely different worlds.No matter how desperate or extreme he became, there would be no sympathy.Because someone like Edwin only ever lived for himself.Hearing his name spoken so directly, Edwin’s eyes widened.“You dare to say my name? Are you tired of living?”As he spoke, he lunged forward and grabbed the doctor by the throat.The man nearly lost his breath yet still forced out his words.“Then I’ll say it straight. If you can help me, then help me. If you can’t, forget it. I won’t beg you.“I know what you’re trying to do. You just want me to bow my head to you.“Keep dreaming. I did

    The subordinate knew Edwin’s temper all too well.Sure enough, in the very next second, Edwin lifted the knife without hesitation and drove it toward the doctor’s throat.“Help! Please, spare me!”The doctor cried out.At that, Edwin stopped just in time—the blade hovered a hair’s breadth from the man’s neck.“Oh?”His careless tone pulled the doctor back from the edge.A moment ago, he had thought he was truly about to die.Now, everything had changed.“So you’re not insane after all.”There was unmistakable mockery in Edwin’s voice.Even the doctor could hear it clearly.“I’m sorry, sir… I was just scared.”“Scared of what?”Edwin tilted his head slightly as he asked, the knife still suspended at the doctor’s throat.It was obvious that he had no intention of letting him go.The doctor had been far too disobedient, easily the most troublesome subordinate he had dealt with.Everyone else obeyed him without question, treated him with absolute respect.He had never encountered a situati

    The moment he felt the cold edge of the blade, his body trembled even more violently.At the sight, a flicker of excitement crossed Edwin’s eyes.He knew that this doctor was faking it.After all, who wouldn’t react to a blade pressed against their skin?Besides, with the knife right in front of him, it wouldn’t take long to understand the stakes.Watching him, Edwin narrowed his eyes.“What’s wrong? So, you do know how to be afraid?”The subordinate finally realized something was off.If the man had truly lost his mind from fear, how could he react like this?Someone genuinely broken wouldn’t even recognize what a knife was, yet this reaction was far too telling.The subordinate had seen enough over the years to recognize it.Something wasn’t right. He just couldn’t pinpoint exactly what.Still, he followed Edwin’s lead.“Sir, something’s off with him. How should we handle this?”“Don’t rush. Whether it’s real or not… I’ll find out myself.”A trace of interest flickered in Edwin’s gaz

    He never expected that the woman he once called a lunatic would now turn around and help him. The world really worked in strange ways.“Why don’t we exchange contact info?”Joseph offered first.For now, it was the only way to keep her tied to this plan.If she made a promise and he agreed—then how

    “Madam Grace, I understand why you’re doing this. You’ve carried the Walton family on your shoulders for so many years.”Arnold had always admired Grace deeply.After following her for so long, he knew exactly what kind of person she was.That was why he chose to stay by her side.Many people never

    Hearing that, Lucas was genuinely stunned.He never imagined something this messy would play out right in front of him."So, what do you plan to do now?"Before Aurora could answer, Lucas continued, "That man is practically circling like a wolf. Harsh as it sounds, he’s already eyeing your family’s

    “The Carters all know exactly what Edwin is like.”Yvonne went silent.For a moment, she didn’t know what to say.And deep down, she didn’t believe Lucas would help her either.She had already fallen out with him, and she hadn’t gone back to take her place as a judge.That alone made it clear that s
