Grace's expression darkened even further.Aurora had already embarrassed the Walton family once by being involved with that man.And now?She still hadn’t learned her lesson?A heavy sigh of disappointment settled in Grace’s chest.She looked at Tessa and instructed, "Tessa, I know you have a kind heart, but this is something you don’t need to involve yourself in."She’s a grown woman now. She needs to be responsible for her own choices. She can’t always rely on us."Tessa hesitated for a moment, as if she had more to say, but in the end, she sighed and nodded."I’ll listen to you, Mom. I just hope my sister can be more sensible and not make you worry."Every word was laced with quiet concern, full of warmth and understanding.Grace looked at her thoughtful, considerate daughter, and inevitably, her mind drifted to Aurora.The comparison was unavoidable.And though the dissatisfaction passed in a fleeting moment, Tessa caught it clearly.A slow, knowing smile curled at the corners of h

"Aurora, just listen to me, okay? Give me a chance."Aurora’s patience snapped. "Let me go!""Do you even realize how disgusting this is? Don’t forget that you have my sister!"At the mention of Tessa, a flicker of something unreadable flashed through Julian’s drunken gaze.But instead of stopping, he tightened his hold, pulling Aurora closer."But we were supposed to be engaged first.""Aurora… I’ve always liked you."The moment those words left his mouth, a wave of revulsion crawled down Aurora’s spine.Her stomach churned, her skin prickling with sheer disgust. She fought against his grip, her movements frantic, but his strength—fueled by alcohol and determination—kept her trapped."Julian," she hissed, her voice shaking with anger. "If my sister finds out about this, she won’t let you off."She forced herself to meet his flushed face, bile rising in her throat."You’re engaged to Tessa. Everyone knows it. Do you think you can just pretend that doesn’t exist? Who the hell do you th

Hearing Tessa’s voice, Grace’s heart ached even more. Tessa was such a good child—she had just walked in on her own sister with her fiancé, yet she was still trying to comfort her. But then, Julian suddenly spoke. “Tessa, it’s my fault.” The moment he said that, all three women in the room turned to look at him. Even Aurora couldn’t help but glance over, surprise flickering in her eyes. Was he actually planning to admit to what he had just done? Tessa choked up. “Julian, how could you…” Even Grace’s expression turned uncertain. Had she wrongfully accused Aurora just now? But the next second, Julian looked remorseful. “I drank too much today. I was lying on the couch, a little out of it.” The moment Aurora heard this, she felt something was off. Sure enough, Julian continued. “I didn’t expect Aurora to come over and start saying all sorts of things, blaming Tessa for taking her engagement.” He lifted his head, his eyes slightly red, looking utterly innocent.

Julian strode over to Tessa’s side, his face full of concern. “Tessa, are you okay?” “You’ve always been frail. Don’t cry anymore, alright? Seeing you like this makes me feel awful too.” He reassured her again and again. “Don’t worry. There’s nothing between Aurora and me. I only see her as a sister because of you.” Grace stood on Tessa’s other side, equally focused on her daughter’s health. In contrast, Aurora was painted as nothing more than a spiteful villain in this scene. At that moment, something clicked in Aurora’s mind. She had thought that staying out of their drama would be enough. But clearly, these people had a talent for being insufferable, one after another throwing themselves in her way. “Alright, Julian.” Aurora curled her lips in a mocking smile and nodded. “You really know how to talk. Even now, you still won’t admit it.” “What exactly do you want me to admit? Can’t you see how upset Tessa is? How can you still be so unreasonable?” Hearing this, Gr

Julian didn’t dare meet Aurora’s sharp gaze. His first instinct was to turn to Tessa, eager to explain himself. He knew that as long as he could coax her, nothing else mattered. “Tessa, let me explain—” But before he could finish, Tessa yanked her hand away from his grip. The usual delicate expression on her face was slipping, barely holding together. “The recording has already been played. What more do you want to say?” Her voice was filled with resentment and disbelief. “Are you going to tell me that the voice in the recording isn’t yours?” “I…” Julian’s eyes lit up, ready to claim that Aurora had fabricated the recording. But she beat him to it. “Julian, check the recording time. It was made just moments ago.” Aurora’s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, her smile dazzling yet sharp—like a rose covered in thorns, beautiful but dangerous. “You don’t have to worry. I didn’t have the time to tamper with anything. Besides, these were your own words, weren’t they?”

Chapter 76

Grace had always been strong-willed. As the chairwoman of Walton Corporation—and a woman at that—she had to contend with board members who were nothing short of predators. It wasn’t hard to imagine how difficult it had been for her to survive in that world. But she had never spoken of it to Aurora. The only thing she ever emphasized was that Aurora had to inherit the company, to stand on her own as soon as possible. In Aurora’s memories, her mother had always been strict, relentless in her pursuit of perfection. This was the first time she had ever uttered an apology. Grace watched Aurora remain silent, a hint of unease creeping in. She lowered her gaze, long lashes veiling the disappointment in her eyes. Thinking back, she had indeed been too harsh. Why had she not stopped to ask questions before taking Julian’s side? Between her own daughter and an outsider, how had she chosen to believe someone else? In that moment, Grace realized just how deeply she had misu

Grace nodded in satisfaction at Aurora’s response. “Alright, I’ll be waiting. Just let me know in advance.” Aurora inclined her head, though inwardly, she wondered if Lucas would even have time for this. After all, he might still be busy entertaining his so-called true love. “By the way, Mom.” Aurora suddenly spoke up, looking at Grace. Grace arched a brow, signaling her to continue. “My sister… What do you plan to do about Julian?” Aurora had almost wanted to address him as her brother-in-law out of habit but quickly corrected herself. A man like him wasn’t worthy of that title. At the mention of Julian’s name, Grace’s expression darkened, her authoritative demeanor returning in an instant. “Don’t worry about that. I’ll handle it.” She paused for a moment before adding, unable to suppress herself, “Your sister already admitted that she failed to keep things in check.” “She’ll give us an explanation. Give her some time, she was just as deceived as the rest of us.”

Chapter 78

Tessa was never one to wallow in self-pity. Julian’s heart skipped a beat. Up until now, he had been quite satisfied with Tessa. Her family elders adored her, always speaking highly of her. Though she wasn’t as stunning as Aurora, she was still a well-bred socialite of Ravenshore, and being engaged to her elevated his own status significantly. Giving her up wasn’t something he was willing to do. With that in mind, Julian pulled Tessa into his arms, his voice dripping with tenderness. “Tessa, it was Aurora who seduced me. You’re the only one I love.“Don’t say such things. We’re already engaged. I want to be with you for the rest of my life. My heart belongs to you, and only you.” Julian had always been handsome, but it was his eyes that were his greatest weapon—no matter who he looked at, there was always an illusion of deep affection in them. Under his gentle coaxing, Tessa let herself believe him. She took a deep breath. “Fine, I’ll give you a chance. But what abo

“You’re overthinking it. I’ve just been busy with work these past few days.”Aurora averted her gaze, not wanting to look at Lucas’s face. “Now let go of me—I’m going to take a shower.”But Lucas didn’t loosen his grip.He studied her carefully, sensing that she was hiding something.But if she didn’t want to talk, there wasn’t much he could do.He raised an eyebrow, debating whether to press further. He didn’t want things to be so tense between them.It had been fine before—comfortable, even. But now? She had clearly misunderstood something.“Rora, I don’t want any misunderstandings between us.”His deep voice carried a trace of warmth as he nuzzled into the curve of her neck.“If something’s on your mind, just tell me.”His tone was rich and low, like the deep notes of a cello, each word tugging at her heartstrings.Aurora’s pulse skipped.But then she remembered the way he had walked away that night.What was the point of clarifying anything?This was a marriage of convenience—noth

Faced with that expression, Aurora couldn’t bring herself to refuse.“Alright, I got it.”Lucas’s lips curved into a smile, even his eyes carrying a trace of warmth.“Mrs. Carter, I’ll be waiting for your message.”Aurora gave a simple hum in response before turning and heading toward the office.Lucas remained in place, watching her until she completely disappeared from sight. Only then did he finally drive away.The moment Aurora stepped into the company, she was a different person.She wore a tailored, light-colored business suit that accentuated her sharp, professional demeanor.Her hair was pulled into a sleek updo, exposing her smooth, elegant forehead.With a light touch of makeup, her features appeared even more refined—polished with a distinct air of competence.As she walked past her colleagues, she returned their greetings with polite nods and faint smiles.No one could help but admire her striking presence.Taking her seat, Aurora immediately got to work.She pulled up the
