Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Chapter 252
Tessa finally gave in, lowering her proud head. “I understand, Mom. I’ll handle it.”Aurora was a little surprised. She hadn’t expected Grace, who had always sided with Tessa, to actually scold her in front of her.But it all made sense now. People always prioritized their own interests. No matter the situation, nothing mattered more than personal gain. Once her interests were threatened, even someone like Tessa could be cast aside.Aurora set down her fork and turned to Grace. “Mom, I’m done. I’ll head back to my room and rest.”“Alright, go rest. Your health comes first.”Aurora gave a faint smile and said nothing more.But that calm, almost indifferent demeanor only made Tessa seethe with anger. Who would’ve thought Aurora had grown so arrogant?Grace didn’t miss the resentment flashing in Tessa’s eyes. A flicker of doubt crossed her mind. Had Tessa always been like this? There was something off—something two-faced about her lately.Grace offered a light warning. “Tessa, your

The fact that she even asked that question made it obvious—she was just waiting for something to go wrong, eager to swoop in and enjoy the fallout.With that attitude, there was no need to play nice anymore. People like her only got bolder the more you tolerated them, mistaking patience for fear. It was better to confront her head-on, let her know she wasn’t someone to be trifled with.As Aurora stared at the red light countdown in front of her, Lucas’ handsome face surfaced in her mind. Her grip on the steering wheel gradually tightened.So, did this man realize that Wendy was interested in him?And even knowing that, he still insisted on letting her stay in the house?Aurora took a deep breath. Sometimes, she really didn’t understand what went on in Lucas’ head. But now, it was becoming clearer—he was just hopelessly muddled.The two of them went about their own routines, coming and going separately. Occasionally, they would cross paths at home, but neither would speak to the o

"Alright, I got it."Aurora nodded, brushing it off like the matter had been settled.Her indifferent tone made something twist in Lucas’ chest.He felt wronged too—hurt even—but what could he say? He couldn't bring himself to lash out at her. All he could do was mutter a quiet, “Got it,” and turn to leave the room.Aurora let the towel fall from her hand as she stood there, deflated like a balloon with all the air let out.She had put on a strong front, but really, it was all for show. Her strength was nothing but a thin layer barely holding her together.Back in his room, Lucas didn’t feel much better.After everything they'd been through, no matter what he did or said, he still couldn’t get through to her.He tossed his phone onto the bed and pressed a hand to his forehead, feeling the weight of it all.Was their relationship really going to fall apart because of someone like Wendy?The thought alone left a bitter taste in his mouth.Still, the next morning, when he went to find

Lucas pressed his lips into a thin line before adding, “If it weren’t for her brother, I probably wouldn’t even know her.”And he meant it.Back then, Kenneth had been the only son in the family. When his parents finally had a daughter, the whole household doted on her endlessly, spoiling her at every turn.Naturally, that was what shaped Wendy into the entitled, willful woman she was now. She always had to get what she wanted and if she didn’t, she'd throw a fit until she did.After everything that had happened, Lucas had finally come to a decision—he needed to start keeping his distance from Wendy. Otherwise, Aurora would keep misunderstanding.And what he cared about most now was her—how she felt.He wasn’t looking for drama. All he wanted was a quiet, simple life—his wife, a warm home, and a little peace.Aurora’s resistance began to fade, her struggle slowing down. Her mind started to question—was he really telling the truth?“You mean it?” she asked quietly, finally meetin

But Lucas refused to let go. He struck first, voice firm. “Is this about Wendy? Is that why you’ve been mad at me?”Aurora almost laughed out loud, completely exasperated.She decided to stop hiding, to say what she really thought.“So, you do know.”Her eyes locked onto his, unwavering.She didn’t even know how to face him anymore.After all, this had always been a gamble from the start.She never expected anything in return.But ever since she found out about his so-called true love, she realized that she couldn’t stay indifferent to him.That quiet affection she’d kept buried was beginning to stir again.And the moment Lucas saw the emotion in her eyes, he froze in surprise—then was completely overwhelmed with joy.She was jealous?That meant… she had feelings for him too.It wasn’t one-sided.“Ro-Rora,” he stammered, a little breathless. “Do you mean it? You’re mad because of Wendy, aren’t you?”Aurora could tell how happy he was, which only made her want to push back harder.She

“That’s her business. You don’t get to comment on it,” Lucas said sharply, his tone leaving no room for argument.He took a few bites of the food in front of him. “Clean up when you’re done.”With that, he turned and walked back to the bedroom.Wendy stared at his retreating figure, her lips parting slightly in disbelief.She slammed her fork into her pasta, poking at it furiously like she was taking out her anger.Why couldn’t she even say one bad word about Aurora?She and Lucas had known each other since they were kids.When Lucas got to the office, he couldn’t shake the feeling that Wendy staying at the house day in and day out wasn’t right.After all, it was the home he shared with Aurora—they were newly married, and having another person constantly around was far from ideal.The more he thought about it, the more off it felt.He picked up the phone and called Kenneth. But the line showed he was on another call.Lucas tried again, multiple times—same result.With no other option,

Her feelings for him clearly had never changed.That realization darkened Aurora’s gaze.No wonder Lucas had agreed to let Wendy move in. So, it had all been planned from the start.Thinking back, Aurora felt like a complete fool.There was no such thing as a purely platonic relationship between a man and a woman. That was something she now understood better than anyone.Lucas shut the door and, seeing her hair still damp, reached for a towel. “Rora, lie down. I’ll help you dry it.”“No need.”Her voice was cold, and she didn’t even look at him, treating him like a stranger.That was when Lucas knew for sure—something was seriously wrong. She’d been angry when she came out of the bathroom, but now it was worse. And it was all directed at him.He wanted to explain.“Rora, between me and her… we…”“Stop,” Aurora cut him off. “I don’t want to hear it. I’m not curious about any of it.”He stepped forward, trying to take her hand, but she pulled away faster than he could reach her.“Th

Wendy had taken a solid fall, and Lucas used both hands to help her up. She leaned into him instinctively, her body pressing lightly against his. It was summer, after all, and with both of them dressed lightly in sleepwear, the scene looked far more intimate than it should’ve.Aurora stepped out just in time to see it and the sight hit her like a bolt of lightning.“What are you doing?”No one knew how long she’d been standing there before she finally found her voice and asked the question.Lucas was quick to explain. “She fell. I was helping her up.”“Yeah, look, I even hurt my face, Aurora,” Wendy chimed in, pointing to the faint red mark on her cheek.Aurora’s gaze shifted to the mark. There was indeed a visible sign of the fall.But still…“So you just happened to fall, right here, at our bedroom door? How convenient.”Aurora couldn’t help the dry laugh that escaped her lips. What were the odds? And right as she’d finished washing up, no less.She had to admit, Wendy was calcula

Truth be told, Tessa wasn’t the least bit surprised by the response. She’d known all along that Grace wouldn’t hand over any real power that easily.She hadn’t said those words today expecting results; she just wanted to test the waters, to see where her mother truly stood.And now she had her answer. Grace may have hesitated, but she hadn’t outright refused.That meant, there was still hope.With that realization, Tessa suddenly felt as if her whole future had opened up.…Meanwhile, back at home, Aurora had just walked through the door, only to realize she wasn’t the first to arrive.She was actually the last.Lucas and Wendy were already home.Aurora merely raised a brow and said nothing, heading straight for the guest room.Seeing this, Lucas clenched his fists, unsure of what to say.Wendy, however, let out a dramatic gasp. “Oh my, Aurora, why are you staying in the guest room?”Aurora let out a cold laugh. “That’s my business. What does it have to do with you?”“Oh, I know, I
