Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1687

But he had never cared enough to cherish her.

All his attention had been on Aurora.

In the end, she was the one who woke up to reality, only for Joseph to turn around and start clinging to her instead.

Men were all the same, weren’t they? They never valued what came easily.

Judy let out a quiet, bitter laugh and shook her head. It was better to focus on her career.

Besides, Kenneth understood her. He supported her work, and that was enough.

Joseph, still standing where she’d left him, watched her walk away, his chest aching.

So, this was what it felt like to lose the person you loved most.

Why hadn’t he realized it sooner?

His mind filled with memories, every moment they had shared.

They had once cared for each other deeply, and their relationship had been good, easy even.

Judy had even stood by his side when he faced his parents.

Had she forgotten all of that?

The thought brought a sting of tears to his eyes.

No, he couldn’t give up that easily.

If Judy refused to go home with him, he couldn’t just crawl back in defeat.

Even if he managed to take Aurora down, what meaning would victory have without Judy there to witness it?

The thought almost made him laugh at himself. Why hadn’t he cherished her when he had the chance?

Feeling hollow, Joseph returned to his apartment.

He scrolled through the latest business news back home and began to think that maybe it was time to return and start something new.

But first, he needed to expand his overseas ventures and establish a stronger foothold.
