But now, Grace treated an outsider better than she ever treated her own daughter.
If that was the case, didn’t everything that happened before become a complete joke?
Aurora and Tessa had both grown up by Grace’s side, yet Grace showed two entirely different faces to them.
Aurora still didn’t understand what she had done wrong.
At first, she comforted herself with excuses.
She and Tessa were both Grace’s biological daughters—maybe Grace simply preferred one child over the other.
Maybe it was just a case of one apple shining brighter in her eyes.
Because of that, even when she sensed the unfairness, Aurora forced herself to believe it wasn’t entirely Grace’s fault.
Maybe Tessa was simply more likable.
But now, the truth was laid bare.
It had never been about that.
After comparing everything, Aurora realized that whether she was Grace’s biological daughter or not, Grace always preferred Tessa.
If that was true, what was the point of her holding on for so long?
Was she nothing but a joke in Grace’s eyes?
Now that Grace knew Tessa wasn’t her biological child, she still treated someone else’s daughter better than her.
Because of that, Aurora’s heart finally went cold.
She backed up every piece of evidence related to Tessa and decided to reveal everything at the family meeting.
After all, the meeting was coming soon.
This time, neither Grace nor Tessa would be able to control the narrative.
This was a major gathering of the Walton family. Once Tessa’s identity was exposed, those shareholders would never tolerate her again.
With that thought, Aurora hardened her resolve.
