Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1880

All of it was nothing more than Tessa’s own suspicion and insecurity.

When Sean sought Tessa out back then, he told her the truth about her background.

His tone at the time was firm and assured.

“Do you think that if your mother finds out you already know your real identity, you’ll still get everything from the Walton family?”

Tessa had answered just as firmly.

“I absolutely will.”

She spoke with complete conviction. “I trust Mom. She wouldn’t be that cruel to me.”

At that time, Tessa naïvely believed in Grace’s love.

But recently, as she watched Grace change little by little, especially when Grace began to show favoritism toward Aurora, unease crept into Tessa’s heart.

She knew very well that she was not Grace’s biological daughter.

If the truth ever came out, she would be nothing, let alone inheriting everything from the Walton family.

That would be nothing but a fantasy.

In truth, if Grace had known what Tessa was thinking back then, she would have found it laughable.

Because at that time, she had genuinely treated Tessa well.

Any occasional concern she showed for Aurora was simply because she thought of the Walton Corporation.

Everything here was built by William.

Aurora was his only daughter—how could he not want to leave something for her?

No matter how much Grace might lose her moral compass or reason, she would never touch those things.

Because Grace understood clearly that they belonged to Aurora, left behind by William, and were never hers to take.

Standing nearby, Arnold watched in silence, his thoughts heavy.

If she truly wanted to take things at will, she would first need to ask herself whether she was even capable of doing so.

Even without William, the Walton Corporation still had countless shareholders watching closely.
