Semua Bab Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO: Bab 341 - Bab 350

She spoke up without looking, “If you have something to report, just say it.”Lucas said nothing.After a few more seconds of silence, Aurora finally looked up, puzzled.To her surprise, it was Lucas standing there.“You? What are you doing here?” she asked, visibly caught off guard.Lucas noticed the weariness on her face, and a twinge of concern stirred in his chest. “I came to check on you. You’ve been so busy lately you’ve barely had time to eat, so I brought you something.”As he spoke, he smiled softly and lifted the bag he’d been holding.“Here. I made this for you.”Aurora’s gaze landed on the insulated container in his hand, and a quiet warmth spread through her chest.She hadn’t expected this kind of attentiveness from him. Somehow, this man managed to notice things others never did.She was genuinely touched. As much as she hated to admit it, Lucas could be even more thoughtful than her own mother sometimes.After everything they’d been through, her view of him had started

Aurora shot Lucas a glare. "What was that? You could’ve at least given me a heads-up."Lucas chuckled. "Who gives a heads-up before kissing someone?"Wouldn’t that just ruin the mood?Aurora huffed and turned her back to him, focusing on her meal.Lucas tried to coax her a few times, but she didn’t budge.Still, the corners of his mouth stayed lifted the entire time.He could tell that this time, Aurora really wasn’t mad at him anymore.Otherwise, she wouldn’t be acting like this.The thought alone lifted his mood.As they ate, he reached over and placed another piece of food on her plate.Aurora didn’t refuse. She simply picked it up and ate it.That one small action made Lucas feel an overwhelming sense of triumph. He looked at her with even more affection, unable to hold back, and leaned in to place a soft, feathery kiss on her cheek.Aurora didn’t pull away.The air around them seemed to fill with pink bubbles, light and sweet.Lucas was now certain that Aurora wasn’t angry anymor

No matter how much she wanted to say, Grace couldn’t bring herself to continue after seeing the genuine concern in her daughter’s eyes.“It’s nothing. As for his background, don’t go digging into it. Just focus on living well with Julian.”Her mind drifted back to the banquet. Everything felt like a tangled mess.Between her two daughters, things were starting to slip out of her control—faster than she had expected.Seeing that Grace wasn’t willing to talk further, Tessa tactfully stepped away, closing the study door behind her and leaving her mother alone inside.The moment she stepped out, the smile on her face vanished.She took a moment to collect her thoughts. It seemed Grace didn’t know who Lucas really was either.So that meant he might not be someone with a clear, traceable background?No, Tessa sat upright in realization. She couldn’t jump to conclusions so quickly.After all, the aura that man carried was real. Even Grace’s unease around him hadn’t been an act.It meant Lucas

“Madam Grace, you really are a master of burning bridges,” Aurora said with a cold laugh. “All this time, whatever you asked of me, I did it. I never once pushed back. And now, this is what I get in return? "You’re a Walton too. Don’t forget that.”Grace couldn’t help but snap back. “If the company thrives, that benefits you too.“Don’t make it sound like I’ve done everything purely for Walton Corporation. Let’s be honest, you think I’m only doing this for myself.”That was the final blow. Aurora looked at her mother, utterly disillusioned.She had never imagined that all her hard work, her devotion to the company, would be twisted into selfish ambition.“Mother, do you really mean what you just said?”She deliberately switched back to calling her “Mother,” hoping it would snap her out of it.But Grace didn’t even flinch.She had hesitated for a moment when she looked at Aurora’s face—there was a flicker of doubt—but whatever crossed her mind hardened her again.“I’m giving you three

She had known Lucas for so long, and yet she was nothing to him.It was clearly Aurora, this outsider, who came between them.So, how could she have the nerve to stand there acting so self-righteous?“I just wanted to see what kind of spell you’ve put on Lukey,” Wendy said coldly.Aurora raised a brow, finding the comment more amusing than offensive. “Oh? So now that Lucas isn’t home, you’re finally done pretending, is that it?”Wendy’s jaw clenched at Aurora’s nonchalance. Her heart was already brimming with bitterness and fury.“You bitch! Why does he care about you so much? What do you have that I don’t?”Aurora crossed her arms, her tone languid, as if Wendy’s rage barely registered.“Simple. I’m his wife. You’re just the so-called ‘childhood friend' he’s mentioned in passing. There’s nothing between you, and there never will be.”Then she gave Wendy a slow, disdainful once-over.“As for you…” Her voice was calm, but biting. “You might want to look in the mirror sometime. At least
