Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Chapter 73
Hearing Tessa’s voice, Grace’s heart ached even more. Tessa was such a good child—she had just walked in on her own sister with her fiancé, yet she was still trying to comfort her. But then, Julian suddenly spoke. “Tessa, it’s my fault.” The moment he said that, all three women in the room turned to look at him. Even Aurora couldn’t help but glance over, surprise flickering in her eyes. Was he actually planning to admit to what he had just done? Tessa choked up. “Julian, how could you…” Even Grace’s expression turned uncertain. Had she wrongfully accused Aurora just now? But the next second, Julian looked remorseful. “I drank too much today. I was lying on the couch, a little out of it.” The moment Aurora heard this, she felt something was off. Sure enough, Julian continued. “I didn’t expect Aurora to come over and start saying all sorts of things, blaming Tessa for taking her engagement.” He lifted his head, his eyes slightly red, looking utterly innocent. T

Julian strode over to Tessa’s side, his face full of concern. “Tessa, are you okay?” “You’ve always been frail. Don’t cry anymore, alright? Seeing you like this makes me feel awful too.” He reassured her again and again. “Don’t worry. There’s nothing between Aurora and me. I only see her as a sister because of you.” Grace stood on Tessa’s other side, equally focused on her daughter’s health. In contrast, Aurora was painted as nothing more than a spiteful villain in this scene. At that moment, something clicked in Aurora’s mind. She had thought that staying out of their drama would be enough. But clearly, these people had a talent for being insufferable, one after another throwing themselves in her way. “Alright, Julian.” Aurora curled her lips in a mocking smile and nodded. “You really know how to talk. Even now, you still won’t admit it.” “What exactly do you want me to admit? Can’t you see how upset Tessa is? How can you still be so unreasonable?” Hearing this, Gr

Julian didn’t dare meet Aurora’s sharp gaze. His first instinct was to turn to Tessa, eager to explain himself. He knew that as long as he could coax her, nothing else mattered. “Tessa, let me explain—” But before he could finish, Tessa yanked her hand away from his grip. The usual delicate expression on her face was slipping, barely holding together. “The recording has already been played. What more do you want to say?” Her voice was filled with resentment and disbelief. “Are you going to tell me that the voice in the recording isn’t yours?” “I…” Julian’s eyes lit up, ready to claim that Aurora had fabricated the recording. But she beat him to it. “Julian, check the recording time. It was made just moments ago.” Aurora’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her smile dazzling yet sharp—like a rose covered in thorns, beautiful but dangerous. “You don’t have to worry. I didn’t have the time to tamper with anything. Besides, these were your own words, weren’t they?”

Grace had always been strong-willed. As the chairwoman of Walton Corporation—and a woman at that—she had to contend with board members who were nothing short of predators. It wasn’t hard to imagine how difficult it had been for her to survive in that world. But she had never spoken of it to Aurora. The only thing she ever emphasized was that Aurora had to inherit the company, to stand on her own as soon as possible. In Aurora’s memories, her mother had always been strict, relentless in her pursuit of perfection. This was the first time she had ever uttered an apology. Grace watched Aurora remain silent, a hint of unease creeping in. She lowered her gaze, long lashes veiling the disappointment in her eyes. Thinking back, she had indeed been too harsh. Why had she not stopped to ask questions before taking Julian’s side? Between her own daughter and an outsider, how had she chosen to believe someone else? In that moment, Grace realized just how deeply she had misu

Grace nodded in satisfaction at Aurora’s response. “Alright, I’ll be waiting. Just let me know in advance.” Aurora inclined her head, though inwardly, she wondered if Lucas would even have time for this. After all, he might still be busy entertaining his so-called true love. “By the way, Mom.” Aurora suddenly spoke up, looking at Grace. Grace arched a brow, signaling her to continue. “My sister… What do you plan to do about Julian?” Aurora had almost wanted to address him as her brother-in-law out of habit but quickly corrected herself. A man like him wasn’t worthy of that title. At the mention of Julian’s name, Grace’s expression darkened, her authoritative demeanor returning in an instant. “Don’t worry about that. I’ll handle it.” She paused for a moment before adding, unable to suppress herself, “Your sister already admitted that she failed to keep things in check.” “She’ll give us an explanation. Give her some time, she was just as deceived as the rest of us.”

Tessa was never one to wallow in self-pity. Julian’s heart skipped a beat. Up until now, he had been quite satisfied with Tessa. Her family elders adored her, always speaking highly of her. Though she wasn’t as stunning as Aurora, she was still a well-bred socialite of Ravenshore, and being engaged to her elevated his own status significantly. Giving her up wasn’t something he was willing to do. With that in mind, Julian pulled Tessa into his arms, his voice dripping with tenderness. “Tessa, it was Aurora who seduced me. You’re the only one I love.“Don’t say such things. We’re already engaged. I want to be with you for the rest of my life. My heart belongs to you, and only you.” Julian had always been handsome, but it was his eyes that were his greatest weapon—no matter who he looked at, there was always an illusion of deep affection in them. Under his gentle coaxing, Tessa let herself believe him. She took a deep breath. “Fine, I’ll give you a chance. But what abo

“You’re overthinking it. I’ve just been busy with work these past few days.”Aurora averted her gaze, not wanting to look at Lucas’s face. “Now let go of me—I’m going to take a shower.”But Lucas didn’t loosen his grip.He studied her carefully, sensing that she was hiding something.But if she didn’t want to talk, there wasn’t much he could do.He raised an eyebrow, debating whether to press further. He didn’t want things to be so tense between them.It had been fine before—comfortable, even. But now? She had clearly misunderstood something.“Rora, I don’t want any misunderstandings between us.”His deep voice carried a trace of warmth as he nuzzled into the curve of her neck.“If something’s on your mind, just tell me.”His tone was rich and low, like the deep notes of a cello, each word tugging at her heartstrings.Aurora’s pulse skipped.But then she remembered the way he had walked away that night.What was the point of clarifying anything?This was a marriage of convenience—noth

Faced with that expression, Aurora couldn’t bring herself to refuse.“Alright, I got it.”Lucas’s lips curved into a smile, even his eyes carrying a trace of warmth.“Mrs. Carter, I’ll be waiting for your message.”Aurora gave a simple hum in response before turning and heading toward the office.Lucas remained in place, watching her until she completely disappeared from sight. Only then did he finally drive away.The moment Aurora stepped into the company, she was a different person.She wore a tailored, light-colored business suit that accentuated her sharp, professional demeanor.Her hair was pulled into a sleek updo, exposing her smooth, elegant forehead.With a light touch of makeup, her features appeared even more refined—polished with a distinct air of competence.As she walked past her colleagues, she returned their greetings with polite nods and faint smiles.No one could help but admire her striking presence.Taking her seat, Aurora immediately got to work.She pulled up the

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

Aurora nodded as Grace spoke. "Alright, Mom. I understand." But Grace could tell she hadn’t really taken her words to heart. She couldn’t help but add, "This was your choice, Aurora. No one can walk it for you. "If it’s the path you chose, then you have to stick with it. What truly matters is the two of you are doing well." Aurora lowered her gaze. She understood exactly what her mother was getting at. It was just like the past when she chose to be with Joseph. "I get it, Mom. You should get some rest. I’m an adult now." She tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear and looked at her mother, speaking clearly and steadily. "Don’t worry. I can handle a lot more than you think." Grace felt a flicker of comfort in her heart. "That’s good. Our little Rora really has grown up." Aurora froze for a moment when she heard that. It had been a long time since her mother had called her by her nickname, and she wasn’t quite used to it.Grace noticed the way her daughter paus

Aurora shut the door behind her, completely unaware of Tessa’s furious muttering downstairs. Not that it would’ve mattered—she couldn’t care less. Tessa was only acting this arrogant because their mother wasn’t home. Without anyone to answer her, Tessa sat fuming alone in the living room, her cheeks flushed with anger. She raised her hand, ready to sweep everything off the coffee table in a fit of rage when Grace walked through the front door. "What’s wrong, Tessa? Your face is all red. Are you feeling unwell?" No matter what her daughter had done at those business events, Grace couldn’t bring herself to stay mad. Tessa was still her child, the one she’d doted on since she was little. Even if she was upset, she couldn’t truly be angry with her. Tessa was briefly caught off guard.She quickly pulled herself together and responded to her mother’s concern. "I’m fine, Mom, really. Aurora just got back, and I was a little worried something might’ve happened to her out th

"This ungrateful brat!" The assistant beside him spoke up timidly, "Mr. Hunt, should we find a way to get the Mr. Joseph out?" "Of course!" Melvin looked furious, burning with shame. "At a time like this, what else can we do but get him out?" No matter how disgraceful his son was, once the news got out, it would be the Hunt family’s reputation on the line. What would happen to Hunt Enterprises’ stocks then? He couldn’t afford to take that risk. Seeing Melvin’s expression ease a little, the assistant finally breathed a sigh of relief and went off to find someone to figure out how to get Joseph out. Joseph was already in jail but still hadn’t fully processed what had happened. Aurora had really thrown him straight into jail like that? "Hey! Let go of me!" Joseph yelled at the officers. "Do you even know who I am? How dare you treat me like this!" One of the officers rolled his eyes. "I don’t care who you are. If you’ve broken the law, you’re not getting away with it.

All it did was make Aurora feel like her past self had been unbelievably naive.But Joseph kept going, oblivious to her discomfort. "Those were our best memories. I still remember the first time you blushed, the way you looked in that white dress—so sweet and shy. “You were always so gentle and soft when you were with me… it was such a beautiful time."As he spoke, he watched her face closely, searching for some flicker of emotion.But to Aurora, hearing those words from him made her skin crawl.The more he went on, the more irritated she became. Her expression turned colder by the second.She reached for her phone, ready to call a ride. Staying here any longer felt like a direct assault on her intelligence.Joseph noticed the gesture. That was when it hit him—she hadn’t been listening to a single word he said.And in that moment, he felt like a complete fool.He had poured out his heart, and yet this woman—this ungrateful bitch—could still be so heartless.His eyes darkened. He

Aurora’s anger ignited the second those words left his mouth.Without hesitation, she slapped Joseph hard across the face, her voice sharp and cold. "What the hell is wrong with you?"This is still Walton Corporation, and you think you can throw a fit right here? Whether I talk or not is none of your damn business. Try worrying about yourself."The slap caught Joseph completely off guard. Before he could react, Aurora had already snatched her phone back.He clutched his cheek, momentarily stunned, not even sure where to look.Rage overtook him. "You bitch! You actually hit me!"Aurora raised her chin defiantly. "So, what if I did? You brought it on yourself."Joseph couldn’t stand the smugness in her expression. Grinding his teeth, he snapped, "You think you can just cut me off like that? It’s not gonna be that easy!"Aurora, we were together for three years. Don’t forget, I’ve seen everything. You're not afraid I’ll send it all out?"His threat made Aurora pause, eyes narrowing as s

After all, this was a choice, and a gamble, Aurora had made for herself.Even if she lost the bet, she knew she'd have to deal with the consequences on her own.She pulled out her phone, opened the ride-hailing app, and was just about to book a car when a voice laced with fury and bitterness cut through the air."Aurora Walton, you’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?"The sudden sound startled her. She hadn’t even noticed someone standing nearby.Steadying herself, Aurora looked up, only to be met with Joseph’s face, dark and twisted with resentment."Well, look who’s changed careers," she said dryly, unable to resist the jab.Joseph blinked, caught off guard. "What’s that supposed to mean?""Nothing much. Just surprised to find a clown performing right outside my office," Aurora said casually. "Now move. Stop blocking my way."At that, Joseph’s expression twisted. The fresh style he’d worked so hard on couldn’t hide the rage contorting his face. "What the hell does that mean? I ca
