Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1704

“Don’t worry. I’ll be careful with my words from now on.”

Hearing that, Michelle finally felt at ease.

As she left, she offered Yvonne one last earnest reminder.

“No matter what happens, you’ll always be the apple of your parents’ eye.

“So, whatever comes your way, you don’t have to shoulder it alone. You can always talk to us.”

“Alright, I understand.”

Yvonne’s eyes shimmered with tears.

She turned her head slightly and quietly wiped them away while her mother wasn’t looking.

Now, she fully understood how her mother felt.

How could any parent not hope to see their child grow into someone stronger and better?

Once Michelle left, Yvonne sat alone on the bed, then gradually leaned back against the mattress.

Staring up at the ceiling, her mind was a tangled mess.

Too much had happened recently—so much that she couldn’t keep up.

She’d faced plenty of chaos before, but never like this.

Her entire life felt like a pot boiling over, completely out of control compared to the past.

Before, Lucas would step in and handle everything for her. But now, she had to rely on herself.

Thinking of that stirred a sense of panic.

And all of this began with Aurora’s arrival.

If not for her, Yvonne believed nothing between her and Lucas would have changed.

No matter what problems came up, Lucas would always shield her.

The more she dwelled on it, the more she wished Aurora could simply disappear.

But now, even Joseph refused to work with her.
