“You Will Regret This!”

Chapter Thirty-One“You cannot leave!” Ethan growled at Aurora, throwing the papers at her face, “I will never sign the divorce papers!”Celeste looked distressed.Why was Ethan acting this way? It’s not like he had any feelings for Aurora, right? Why then won’t he let her leave?“If this bitch stays on here, my position as Mrs Langford would never be really established!” She thought to herself in dismay, “No! That cannot happen at all! Aurora must leave!”Aurora did not react when Ethan threw the papers at her. She merely dug her hands in her coat pockets, and eyed Ethan with proud disdain, “It doesn’t matter if you sign the papers now or not, we’d be legally divorced when the waiting period is over after a month.” She declared, “I’m still leaving you.”Ethan let out a bitter laugh, raking his hand through his hair in frustration once more at Aurora’s calm demeanor.It was as though she was an ice wall that he could not get through and he just wanted to punch through the ice once.

Her Own Space

Chapter Thirty-TwoAurora walked out of the house with her head held high. She did not even look back at the building or give heed to the curious looks of the guards, who watched as she passed by them, rolling her luggage.Her driver hurried up to her when he saw her with her luggage, “Ma’am, do you want me to take you?”“No need.”She walked down the large courtyard and past the giant wrought iron gates without looking back.Indeed, there was nothing tying her back to the Langford family anymore. She’d divorced her husband and given up her custody rights to her child. She’d paid her respects to the late Patriarch, and she owed them nothing now.Aurora reached into her bag for her cellphone, intent on calling for a cab but then she stopped, something catching her eye.A few feet away from her, Caspian stepped down from a gleaming Rolls-Royce. He walked up to her, and quietly took the luggage from her hands.“You sure took your sweet time,” he said gruffly as they started moving back t

Six Years Late

Chapter Thirty-ThreeAurora absolutely loved the steak.It was delicious and melted in her mouth, the way she liked it. They did the dishes together, and retired to the balcony, with cups of tea.The Balcony was small and private, with a single lounge, a few potted plants and a view that was to die for.Caspian draped a shawl over her shoulders, and she smiled up at him gratefully, “Thank you.” She uttered, “Thanks for the meal as well.”“You’re welcome.”“I didn’t know you could cook,” she continued, cradling her cup of tea between her plans, while looking up at him, “And you’re so good at it too! Wow!”Caspian shrugged, “Yeah, it’s that good because it’s the only meal I can make well. Any other thing…not so much. I love meat, so I gave it my all.”Aurora laughed out loud this time, and Caspian gave himself another mental well done pat.He was definitely not going to be leaving her in a depressing mood all night.While Aurora may act indifferent about everything that had happened in

“If She Takes Your Case…You Live”

Chapter Thirty-FourFrom that moment on, her life changed permanently.The minister, whose son she’d saved was very grateful for her assistance and proved his generousity magnanimously.He was not just a minister, but also a senior government official, who was also deeply connected to policy, defense and national healthcare funding.As soon as his son recovered he did three things immediately; He silenced the exposure, got her funded quietly and then introduced her to a close circle.A private network of elites.These included politicians, billionaire industrialists, top-military officials and top legacy families in Crestmont.These were people with money, secrets and medical problems that they could not make public.Even the case she’d had handled for the minister had not gone public, but only just that case, due to the minister’s orders.If her work had gotten out, she would probably have gotten shut down for illegal human testing, or control over her work seized.The minister was

Hostility

Chapter Thirty-FiveThe next morning, Aurora resumed work at the institute. Caspian had picked her up at her apartment that morning, and soon received very puzzling instructions.“Now Aurora, are you sure you want to just work in the lab?” He asked in surprise, “You’re the President. Why not just take over operations now that you’re back?”“Then, what would you do?” Aurora replied, “I did not come back to sit behind a desk all day, Caspian. I want to know what it feels like to be in a lab once more. Humor me, please.”“No.”“Oh come on.” She rolled her eyes heavenward, making Caspian grin, “You’re better at it than I am anyway. Or…” she looked over at him, her brows furrowed slightly with worry, “…do you need to leave? Like right now?”While being a medical researcher with a name for himself, Caspian Vaughn was also the sole heir of the Vaughn Empire; one out of the top three elite conglomerates in the country.For years, he’d managed the research institute as well as his empire, and

“You Are The One We Choose!”

Chapter Thirty-SixAurora and Caspian looked at each other, then at the astonished team members.Oops.“It’s okay, really.” Caspian uttered, waving off what he thought was their concerns about him being disrespected, “Aurora is a good friend of mine, and someone I respect a lot so…there’s no issue here.” He glared pointedly at Nadia, “And there would be no issue.”Nadia scoffed in disbelief, “CEO…”She started but Caspian held up his hand, “That’s enough.” He said with a tone of finality, then turned to Aurora, his voice softening remarkably, “Let me show you to your office.”Aurora nodded, then allowed Caspian to lead her.Nadia glared at their retreating figures, her fists clenched so tightly, her knuckles turned white.Not only did this Aurora Hale steal her position from her, but she was all cozy and intimate with the CEO, Caspian Vaughn himself?It was outrageous!Nadia felt like pulling her hair by the roots, but she’d never been one to react in such an uncultured way before, so

She Actually…Left?!

Chapter Thirty-Seven“What? Where did you say she was working?”Ethan was standing in front of the floor to ceiling windows in his high end office, looking down at the hustle and bustle of Crestmont city below.Behind him stood his assistant, Carter, who was making a report. At the sound of that question, Carter stopped in his tracks and looked up in puzzlement.“Sir?”Ethan had turned swiftly away from the window, “Where did you say you found Aurora working at?”Carter returned back to his IPad, a furrow between his brows, “It’s very strange sir,” he uttered, "She is working at the Seraphim Medical Research Institute.”Ethan rubbed the space between his eyes, scoffing in disbelief, “Carter, you seemed to have lost your touch,” he said through gritte teeth, glaring at the innocent assistant, “I asked you to get me information on Aurora Hale, not some other woman, and you’re bringing me this nonsense. Why would Aurora Hale be working at all? Not just working but at Seraphim Medical Res

“Call Your Mother!”

Chapter Thirty-Seven“Daddy, where is mommy?”Riley was sitting very forlornly at the breakfast table, quietly stirring her bowl of cereal. She had a very somber expression on her face, a mixture of sadness and boredom.This was literally the fifth week since Aurora had left home, and it was the only time Riley acknowledged her presence.This was because Celeste had been at the house all along, playing wife and mother, while continuing to wow the child with her lifestyle.However, Celeste had to quickly run overseas for a conference which would last three days. Her absence in the house made Riley quickly bored, and that was when she remembered her mother.All along, Riley had been reluctant even to see Aurora because she knew her mother would oppose her spending time with Celeste. So she’d urged Celstee to have their play dates and fun time, outside the house most times, thinking her mother would not be able to interfere.She did notice her mother had not said anything for a long whil

Tell Miss Moore To Make Them

Chapter Thirty-EightRiley’s face lit up at once, “Really?” She uttered excitedly, “You’re going to call mommy?!”Ethan hesitated, “Uhhh…baby, why don’t you call her yourself?” He uttered, “So you can hear her wish you a happy birthday?”The child shook her head, her expression sad, “I tried calling mommy earlier,” she said, her bottom lip wobbling, “But I could not reach her!”“What?” Ethan asked, his brows furrowing in a slight frown. His heart started slamming against his ribs as he suddenly thought of something.Aurora would not dare to block her child now, would she?“How then are we supposed to reach her?! What the hell is her problem?!”Riley reached into her bag and brought out her cellphone, handing it to her father, “See? I can’t reach mommy.”As she spoke, she tried to call Aurora’s number, but then the automated message came on saying it was unreachable.Ethan collected the phone from the child and went straight to her messenger chat, his jaw locked with fury.This was the

The Threat!

Chapter Thirty-NineThe child broke into full length sobbing at those words.“Aunt Celeste is not home!” She wailed once more.Aurora smiled bitterly.Aunt Celeste is not home? So now, you remember your mother, huh? Is that it, Riley?“Alright then, Riley. Now, all you have to do is wait for her to get back,” she replied, “I’m sure she would be happy to make the honey muffins for you.”“No!” Riley sobbed, “I want your honey muffins! I want you to come home and make me my muffins!”Aurora was not moved at all by the child’s tears. She did not relish being the second option and choice, if the great Aunt Celeste is not home.She played that role for years after Riley became estranged from her, and she was not going to be doing it anymore.“I will not be making the honey muffins for you, Riley,” she said with a note of finality, “Mom is busy, and you’re only making her work harder.”As Riley’s sobs grew louder, Ethan could not stand the conversation anymore. He had deliberately placed th
