All Chapters of Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO: Chapter 971 - Chapter 980

Carol lunged wildly, clearly aiming to claw Tessa’s face.Grace’s heart skipped a beat, and she quickly signaled Jason to stop her.Jason reacted fast—before anyone could move, he had already pinned Carol down.He turned to Tessa. “Miss Tessa, are you alright?”Tessa sobbed quietly, tears streaming down her cheeks like petals in the rain, but she bit her lip and shook her head, insisting she was fine.She was clearly trying to stay strong, not wanting Grace to worry.Seeing this, Grace clutched her chest, still shaken.She pulled Tessa into her arms, then turned and shouted furiously at Albert and Carol.“This is your idea of a proper conversation?“Don’t forget, we’re the victims here. Not just Tessa, but Aurora too. I’ll make sure every single thing gets settled.”With that, she turned to leave with Tessa. “Jason, we’re going. I’d love to see just how much longer Hayes Enterprises can survive.“If this is what you call sincerity, I have no problem terminating every partnership immedi

Jason lit up inside—who would’ve thought that stopping a madwoman could earn him a raise.If all good deeds came with rewards like this, he wouldn’t mind a few more.But right now, the most pressing issue was still Julian.“Madam Grace, are we really just going to let this go? The Hayes family’s attitude was far too much.”He spoke from the driver’s seat, his tone full of righteous anger.He truly couldn’t stand that family.They were clearly in the wrong, and yet that lunatic Carol acted as if they were the ones being wronged.Honestly, they had no shame.Grace glanced calmly at him, noting how genuinely upset he was.In the end, she offered a reassuring reply.“Enough. Don’t think too much about it. Just focus on driving. As for what happens next, I’ll wait for that old man from the Hayes family to give me a proper explanation.”A sharp glint flashed in her eyes.She was determined to see what his next move would be.His son was already in that state, and he still refused to let go.

Otherwise, it would only make her feel more guilty.Aurora gave Arnold a polite nod. “Mr. Lee, is my mom home?”“She is, she is,” he replied quickly, then asked, “Are you here to talk to Madam Grace about something?”Aurora hesitated, unsure how to begin. She simply shook her head. “I’ll speak to her in a bit.”Her expression revealed nothing, but it was clear she wasn’t about to explain anything to the butler.“Alright then.”Arnold understood perfectly.He realized that asking what she intended to discuss with Grace wasn’t exactly appropriate.It was a personal matter, and it wasn’t his place to pry.He quickly apologized. “I’m sorry, Miss Aurora. I overstepped.”Aurora didn’t take it to heart. She gave a small shake of her head. “It’s fine. I know you didn’t mean anything by it.”She spoke as she made her way inside.Seeing this, Arnold gave up trying to stop her.He really had no authority to do anything.He was just staff—he couldn’t actually block a family member from entering.

And this daughter of hers...The thought made Grace turn her gaze slowly toward Aurora, only to see disbelief written all over her face.Consider things from another’s perspective? There was none of that in her expression.Not even a trace.Aurora let out a low scoff. She looked at Grace, about to ask, “Is that what you think too, Mom?”But then she saw it—the quiet approval on her mother’s face as she looked at Tessa.And in that moment, there was nothing left for Aurora to question.It was all crystal clear.Asking anything more wouldn’t change a thing. It would only humiliate herself further.Some truths, when pursued too deeply, only prove how blind you’ve been.Aurora gave a soft laugh. “I see.”She gave Grace a small nod. “Mother, I was out of line. I understand now. I’ve got something to attend to, so I won’t keep you.”With that, she turned to leave.Grace and Tessa exchanged a glance, both confused.That was it? No argument? No flare of temper?She just left?If this had been

But what Aurora hadn’t expected was how quickly her mother had acted.It hadn’t even been that long, and she’d already brought Tessa back into the picture.Aurora would never forgive Tessa.Her fingers curled into a tight fist as she marched over to the trash can and, without a second thought, tossed the jewelry box inside.But after just a few steps, regret crept in.She paused, closed her eyes, and stepped back.Forget it. It would be a waste to throw it away.Might as well keep it; if her mother’s birthday came around, she could always give it then.But right now, she didn’t want to give her anything at all.Grace had Tessa by her side—there was no need for Aurora to insert herself into that picture.At least she had the self-awareness to recognize that.Aurora stared blankly at the box in her hand.Clearly, being soft-hearted was dangerous.The moment she let her guard down, it was like exposing her weakness. She could never return to the version of herself that was strong and unt
