Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Chapter 106
After a restful night, Aurora woke up to the familiar scent of breakfast the next morning.Lucas had already prepared everything, just like always.After what happened yesterday, something had shifted between them. Things felt easier now. She could finally sit across from him without overthinking or letting her mind spiral into strange places.Everyone had secrets—things they’d rather keep hidden. There was no need to dig too deep. They were adults, after all. Everyone needed a little privacy.“This fried egg’s perfect today,” Aurora said casually, offering a rare compliment.Lucas paused, surprised, then looked up to find her smiling at him. His lips curved slightly. “If you like it, I’ll make it the same way next time.”“Sounds good.”Their dynamic had improved so much—it was easier now, more natural than before.After breakfast, Aurora grabbed her keys and headed out to work.Lucas had wanted to drive her, but when he saw her already holding the keys, he didn’t push it.He’d al

Aurora stared at her screen, reviewing each proposal and idea one by one, letting them cycle through her mind.Meanwhile, word of both her proposal and the situation with Linda had already reached Tessa and Grace.At the Walton estate, Grace had decided to stay home that day and was spending time with Tessa.After the incident with Julian, Tessa had stormed out of the house in anger. Now, sitting alone with her mother, things still felt a little tense.Tessa glanced at Grace’s perfectly maintained face. Her mother was quietly sipping coffee and reading, showing no intention of making conversation. Tessa’s hands slowly clenched into fists.Julian had already explained everything to Grace after what happened.Even though she hadn’t said much at the time, Tessa could tell that her mother might have forgiven Julian, but she wasn’t going to forget that easily, especially with Aurora holding the recording—it wasn’t something that could be brushed aside.“Mom, I heard Aurora fired someone f

But Tessa had always been frail growing up.That was why Grace had shown her more patience, more leniency. She couldn’t help it.And then there was the other reason…Grace’s lips pressed into a thin line as she looked at Tessa. “You’ve been thoughtful. I understand. I’ll talk to your sister.”“You’re right, if she wants to earn respect, how her colleagues see her matters. She can’t just charge ahead without considering their views.”A smile bloomed on Tessa’s face. “As long as you understand, that’s enough for me. I only want what’s best for her.”“You’re a good girl, Tessa,” Grace murmured, patting her hand gently. Then her tone shifted. “You’ve always been a good one. I’ve always known that.”“But about Julian… what are your plans moving forward?”That situation had left a splinter in Grace’s heart.After all, they were both her daughters, and now things had turned ugly over a man. What would people say if they found out? It was a stain on the family’s name.Tessa tightened her gri

Grace had always been strict with Aurora.But when it came to Tessa, her feelings leaned more toward compassion than discipline.Tessa was frail since birth, yet always so thoughtful. Whatever she did, she always seemed to consider Grace’s perspective first.Between the two daughters, Grace had often found herself favoring Tessa more, though she would never admit it aloud.She simply wasn’t good at expressing it.Running the company already left her overwhelmed. Most days, she barely had time to breathe, let alone tend to the emotional undercurrents between her children.That was why, at times, she overlooked things she shouldn’t have.“Tessa, whatever happens, if you ever feel wronged, you come to me. I’ll always be on your side,” Grace said gently.Tessa nodded, her voice soft and sweet. “I know, Mom. Thank you.”“Alright, go on now. You’ve got things to do.”Only then did Tessa pull away from her mother’s arms.She left the room and returned to her own, closing the door behind her.

Since the last time they met, there had been no news. It made Joseph anxious. The people he sent out couldn’t get any information on the younger heiress of the Walton family. “Useless bunch,” Joseph muttered under his breath. He paced around the room, going over everything that had happened recently. Something about Aurora didn’t sit right with him. Back when they were together, she had pretended to be so meek and obedient. But the moment they broke up, her true colors began to show. “Aurora, you bitch! If you want to play dirty, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Let’s see who has the last laugh.” Gripping his phone tightly, the veins on the back of his hand bulged. He recalled someone close to Vanguard Group, someone who held a decent position in the company. He was determined to make Aurora pay. There was no way she could be allowed to get this project. Joseph made a call to a senior executive close to Vanguard, instructing him to swap out the voting form Auror

On the other end.Ben returned to his office with his head down and dialed Tessa’s number to report in. “Miss Walton, the task you assigned me has been taken care of.”“You did well,” Tessa replied, her voice filled with satisfaction....After work, Ben grabbed his car keys and brought Aurora to Grand Light Restaurant.Once they entered the private room, two potbellied men were already waiting inside.“Mr. Watson, Mr. Lowe, it’s been a while. I hope you’ve both been well,” Ben greeted them with a smile as he approached.The two men remained seated, looking aloof as they raised their glasses toward him.“We’ve heard that Mr. Smith’s been busy with Vanguard’s project lately. We get it—it’s understandable,” one of them said.Hank chuckled and waved it off, then gave Aurora a look, motioning for her to take a seat. “Not at all. If anything, I’ve been neglectful. I should’ve kept in touch with both of you more often.”Each person at the table had their own agenda. But on the surface, it w

Aurora had no choice but to fall silent, keeping a faint smile on her face. "Alright then, both of you are certainly straightforward men."The main reason we’re here today is to see if we can secure an additional five percent in profit. That’s the lowest Walton Corporation can offer."David and Peter exchanged a look. So that was Walton Corporation’s real intention.At this point, with the Vanguard Group project in play, their products were in demand everywhere. Sales were the least of their concerns. What mattered was who would ultimately secure the deal.And right now, Walton Corporation stood a strong chance.If they did get it, the profit margin could be negotiated.However, drinking was a whole other matter."Miss Walton, matters of business are best discussed after a few rounds," David said, his tone cryptic and slightly displeased.Peter chimed in, "Exactly. We’re just getting started—let’s keep drinking. Only when everyone’s fully loosened up can we really talk frankly."Auro

Lucas spoke with an air of nonchalance. "In that case, this deal..."He didn’t finish the sentence, but David and Peter weren’t fools. They caught the meaning instantly.They turned to Aurora at once. "Miss Walton, we accept all the terms you just mentioned. Did you bring the contract? We’re ready to sign now.""I did."Aurora was still a little dazed. Even with the contract in her hands, it felt somewhat unreal.The rest of the meal went down much easier for her. But for David and Peter, under Lucas’ silent pressure, every bite tasted like ash.Lucas, on the other hand, looked entirely at ease. He’d come here tonight for one reason— to back Aurora.She was his wife. He couldn’t bear to treat her harshly himself, so how could he possibly let a few nobodies get away with it.With that thought, Lucas sent a quick message to Desmond: Look into the Warren and Lowe companies. Create some trouble for them.Desmond didn’t quite understand, but he followed orders without question.They bar

With all eyes on her, Grace stepped proudly onto the stage.“Everyone, may I have your attention.”The crowd immediately quieted, curious to hear what she had to say.She turned her head toward Aurora, who was gracefully approaching, and extended her hand.Aurora understood the gesture and smiled—a soft, melting smile, like the first snow of winter giving way to spring. Then she gently placed her hand in Grace’s.Grace turned back to the guests and spoke with composure and pride.“Tonight’s business cocktail party was held for more than just celebration. I have two important announcements to make.”“First, I’d like to officially introduce the young woman standing beside me. This is the younger heiress of the Walton family and of Walton Corporation—Aurora Walton!”A collective gasp echoed across the hall.Some who already knew the truth reacted calmly, even remarking that the resemblance between Grace and Aurora was unmistakable.But those who hadn’t known were visibly stunned.“What?S

Grace gave Aurora a subtle look, gesturing for her to change into the gown that had just been gifted.Her current dress was soaked, and continuing to wear it was simply inappropriate for the occasion.Aurora agreed—she couldn’t go on like this. After offering a quick word of thanks, she followed the attendant to change.This time, Tessa didn’t follow.Her freshly manicured nails dug deep into her palm.But the pain in her hand couldn’t compare to the ache twisting in her chest.She had seriously underestimated her darling sister.So, Aurora had managed to climb into the good graces of the man behind Vanguard Group?All this time, she'd kept a low profile, hiding behind work and humility, only to come out with a move like this?“Fine. Let’s see who has the last laugh,” she thought.Grace, meanwhile, was feeling nothing but satisfaction. The timing of the CEO’s gift delivery couldn’t have been better—it was even more impactful than if he’d come in person.Now, everyone clustered around

At those words, the smile on Tessa's face completely cracked.Even Aurora herself was caught off guard.She didn’t have any real connection with the CEO of Vanguard Group—why would he be sending her anything?“Could there be a mistake?” she asked aloud, unable to stop herself.After all, she was just a low-level employee. She barely knew the man.Tessa’s eyes lit up with hope—maybe the gifts were meant for her? Maybe they had simply mistaken the two of them.But the bodyguard shook his head with unwavering certainty. “No mistake. The president gave clear instructions—these gifts are for Miss Aurora Walton.”Tessa nearly shattered her molars, her eyes burning with jealousy so intense it was practically visible.Around them, guests turned toward Aurora, their gazes filled with admiration and envy.Even her coworkers stood stunned, completely thrown off.The bodyguard looked to Aurora, his tone respectful. “Miss Walton, these are from our president. Please feel free to inspect them.”“The

With that thought, Lucas’ gaze swept toward Tessa, who instantly felt a chill crawl down her spine.Meeting his eyes, she unexpectedly flinched.And when she realized she had, Tessa nearly laughed out loud.She was a proud heiress of the Walton family.How could she possibly feel intimidated by some nobody?Straightening her back, she was just about to speak when a new wave of commotion erupted outside."What? The CEO of Vanguard Group is here?""Seriously? I need to go see for myself!"The crowd buzzed with excitement, and even Tessa’s heart skipped a beat.Sure, Julian was already impressive—but who didn’t crave more power? Who didn’t want the best?Self-preservation was human nature. Of course she wanted the best option available.She craned her neck with the rest of the crowd, eyes fixed on the entrance.Even Aurora felt a twinge of surprise.She murmured, "Didn’t expect the CEO to show up in person. He never makes public appearances."Lucas glanced at her, watching her lost in th

But Tessa wasn’t about to let Aurora off the hook so easily, not when her plan had just fallen apart.She quickly caught up, still clinging to her act of concern as she reached for the zipper at the back of Aurora’s dress. "Sister, let me help you. I’ll come with you. This hall is huge. It’s better if we look out for each other."As she spoke, she naturally moved in closer, her right hand inching forward.Aurora saw right through her. She sidestepped without hesitation, irritation flickering in her eyes. "I said I’ve got it. I don’t need help."She’d already arranged for someone to wait in the dressing room. The moment she put the dress on, something had felt off.So, she played along, just to confirm her suspicion that it was her dear sister who’d tampered with it.Judging by Tessa’s urgency, she had guessed right.Meanwhile, the dance continued behind them, but the subtle tugging between the two had already begun to draw attention.Aurora noticed the curious stares and didn’t want t

Aurora gave a slight nod and stepped into the room to meet with Grace.Grace's eyes lit up at the sight of her—Aurora looked absolutely radiant. Her delicate features, touched up just right, gave her an almost ethereal beauty. Grace felt a deep sense of satisfaction."Don’t be nervous tonight. You need to perform well during the opening dance."Aurora nodded. She understood how important the opening dance was—it was the first step in putting her in the public eye."By the way, has Lucas arrived yet?"Aurora recalled the message Lucas had sent her and explained, "Almost. He’s on the way. He just texted me.""Good. You know how we do things in the Walton family. It wouldn’t make sense to have you officially step in without that."Aurora nodded again, fully understanding. Then the two of them walked together toward the banquet hall.By the time they stepped out, most of the guests had already arrived.Grace felt a wave of pride and joy in her heart. These people all knew Walton Corpor

Hearing that the Chairwoman was looking for Aurora, Joseph stood frozen on the spot, completely caught off guard.His eyes widened, mouth slightly agape, and his voice shot up in pitch, making him look rather ridiculous. "You’re the second heiress of the Walton family?"Aurora raised an eyebrow and nodded without hesitation. "What, are you shocked?"It was almost laughable. After three years together, he still had no idea who she really was.The hall manager also looked at Joseph in surprise, wondering why this man was making such a fuss.Joseph’s overly loud voice had drawn attention, and soon the area became a small spectacle.Thinking back to those three years with Aurora, Joseph remembered how plain her clothes had been, how she lived in a rented place until he couldn’t stand it anymore and let her move in with him.How could someone like that possibly be the rumored second heiress of the Walton family?When he finally processed everything, his expression shifted from shock to disd
Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO Chapter 123
As soon as those words were spoken, a wave of murmurs spread through the crowd."Is that true?"Someone voiced their doubt. "Exactly. The CEO of Vanguard Group never attends events like this. No one has even seen what he really looks like.""That’s just what I heard. Who knows if it’s true or not.""If he really shows up at this party, Walton Corporation’s status will be on a whole different level."Everyone nodded in agreement.Who in Ravenshore hadn’t heard of his decisive methods?Not to mention his standing in the city—he was a force above the elite families.Upstairs on the second floor, Tessa watched the scene below. Her beautiful features twisted slightly with frustration. She knew all too well what the purpose of this event was.But why?They were both heiresses of the Walton family, so why was Grace so biased?The resentment in Tessa’s heart was about to overflow.She turned and saw a row of rooms on the second floor. When her eyes landed on the one labeled “Dressing Room,”

Aurora stood to the side with a constant smile on her face. This time, she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.She had passed Grace’s test. What came next was the real challenge.Once the excitement died down, Grace looked at Aurora with a smile in her eyes. “Aurora, come to my office.”Aurora was a little surprised but simply replied, “Okay,” and followed her mother out.“The Chairwoman’s definitely going to reward her with something.”“I think there’s a good chance she’ll get promoted.”“You’re probably right. We’ve all seen what Aurora’s capable of.”“Exactly. Aurora’s ideas played a huge role in securing this project!”No one in the department thought otherwise. Everyone genuinely felt happy for her.As Aurora followed Grace into the office, she understood that her mother was about to honor the bet.But ever since what had happened last time, there was still a thorn in her heart.“Madam Grace, what do you need from me?” Aurora shut the door behind her and looked calmly at Grace
