Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1489

Chapter 1489

What did that man mean by that?

It was clearly between her mother and Aurora, so why did it all end up being blamed on her?

The thought filled Tessa not only with fear but also with growing resentment.

On the other side, as Aurora and Lucas left, he kept a close eye on her expression, unsure whether what happened with Grace had affected her.

Since walking out of that house, Aurora hadn’t said a single word.

Seeing this, Lucas grew concerned.

“Aurora, don’t worry. I’ll always be by your side. If something’s bothering you, you can tell me.

“Why would you think that?” Aurora asked, puzzled as she looked at him, unable to understand why he thought that way.

The truth was, from the moment she stepped out of that house, she had already seen things clearly.

She and Grace were people from two different worlds. So, what if they shared the same bloodline?

They had already torn off all pretense, and from now on, their paths would never cross again.

Their contact would be minimal, and with Tessa’s interference, there was no need to stay involved.

If the Walton Corporation ever truly needed help, she might lend a hand out of basic decency, but nothing more.

Grace still had another daughter, after all. Tessa could handle things for her.

Now that Aurora had stepped away from the company, she had no intention of getting involved again.

Otherwise, people might start assuming she was after the company’s shares.

Lucas said quietly, “I just thought you might still care about family ties, that’s why I brought it up.”

Hearing that, Aurora let out a faint, ironic laugh.

“I do care about family, but when someone like my mother clearly doesn’t care about me, why should I keep forcing myself on her?”

Aurora had always been proud–someone with her own thoughts and principles. She refused to let herself be ruled by emotion.

“No matter how much I long for family, I can see the bias in her eyes. If I keep chasing after such an empty bond, wouldn’t that be the same as a moth flying into the flame?”

Hearing this, Lucas’s eyes brightened slightly.

He hadn’t expected Aurora to be so clear–minded. At times, he even felt she was wiser than he was. She didn’t just see the surface of things, but their essence.
