All Chapters of Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO: Chapter 1261 - Chapter 1270

Hearing that, the black-clad reporter finally showed fear.All his earlier arrogance and defiance were gone.Flustered, he blurted out, “I was just hired to do this. I took the money and did the job—that’s how our business works. I honestly didn’t think it through.”After saying that, he turned toward Aurora. “I’m sorry, Miss Walton. This was my mistake. Please forgive me. I promise it won’t happen again.”He understood well enough that the reason he’d been exposed today was because Aurora had caught on.And judging by the crowd’s reaction, it was clear her opinion mattered most here.If he couldn’t read the situation now, he might as well quit the field altogether.In this line of work, you had to be ready to face the risks.And right now, it was obvious—both Daniel and Lucas deferred to Aurora.That meant he needed to apologize to her first and foremost.The sudden shift left the onlookers stunned, unable to process how quickly things had turned.Aurora herself was caught off guard.

Aurora immediately sensed something was off.She spoke up suddenly, her tone carrying genuine concern. “Mr. Lewis, are your eyes bothering you today?”The words startled Daniel so much that a cold sweat broke out along his back. He hurriedly waved his hands. “No, no, nothing like that. I didn’t mean anything. I only wanted to send you my best wishes. When I heard about your opening, I came especially to congratulate you.”This time, he kept himself from glancing at Lucas again. Just the thought of sitting at the same table with him later made his whole body tense. He hadn’t interacted with Lucas directly before, but even hearing about him from Desmond was enough to unsettle him.Lucas, however, kept his gaze fixed on Daniel, his eyes dark and sharp. If word of his identity slipped today, Daniel’s project might very well be taken back.Aurora still felt something was odd about Daniel’s behavior, but since he insisted nothing was wrong, she couldn’t press the matter further.“Since yo

“Yes, people this good are rare these days. You should just go along with them.”Half dazed, Leonard followed the men into their car.Then he suddenly remembered his own car was still parked nearby.“Wait a moment, my car is still here.”One of the men quickly reassured him. “Don’t worry, my brother will stay behind and arrange for someone to tow it to the repair shop.”“That’s right, leave the small stuff to me.”“Rest assured, since we hit you, we’ll take full responsibility. We’ll never shirk it.”Leonard was speechless.With them talking like that, one after the other, he didn’t know what to say.Still, people this eager to take responsibility after an accident really were rare.He had never realized there were such genuinely earnest men left in the world.When they arrived at the hospital, Leonard only wanted to get his arm checked.But one of the men insisted on a full-body examination.“Doctor, I hit him with my car—please check him thoroughly from head to toe.”The doctor studi

Those words made Megan’s face flare bright red.She shot a glare at Lucas. “Lucas, what nonsense are you spouting?”“Am I wrong? Even you probably didn’t realize how quickly you rushed over just now.”Flustered, Megan hurried back to Aurora’s side, hiding behind her. “Don’t talk nonsense. I only see him as a friend—that’s why I acted like that.”Though she tucked herself behind Aurora, her voice still carried clearly.Hearing this, a flicker of disappointment passed through Leonard’s eyes.He had thought her special concern for him meant she felt something more.But her swift denial showed it was only his own wishful thinking.The realization left him feeling even heavier inside. His hand at his side slowly curled into a fist.Lucas caught every detail.His lips curved in a faint, knowing smile.Just as he suspected.This made things far simpler.If he could steer Megan toward Leonard, then he’d no longer need to worry about Leonard hovering around Aurora.Aurora smiled and soothed her

She snatched up her phone and fired back furiously: “You didn’t even get the job done, and you still dare to ask for the final payment? You must be dreaming.”“Instead of trying to make a living off things you clearly can’t handle, why don’t you get yourself a proper job? If you don’t have the ability, then don’t take the work.”With that, Tessa blocked the black-clad reporter.She’d been using a different number all along.After blocking him, she destroyed the SIM card.Even if someone tried to track her down, it would be impossible—she’d wiped away every trace.In his rented flat, the black-clad reporter stared blankly at her messages.Good thing he’d kept himself well covered; otherwise, he’d never survive in this line of work again.He had counted on Tessa paying him the rest, but her response left him stunned.When he tried to send another message, a glaring red exclamation mark popped up.His expression darkened, teeth grinding. “So that’s it, you’re really the kind to burn the b
