Sweet May-December Marriage novel Chapter 181

Chapter 181 Aurora Was Arrested

Three days later, Helena called Charlotte.

With May bringing the slow onset of warmer weather, Helena made plans to meet at an ice cream parlor. When Charlotte arrived, Helena didn't beat around the bush and handed her a document folder right away.

Charlotte took the document folder and opened it. She glanced through the contents and confirmed that Sophia hadn't deceived her. These materials could truly bring Aurora down. She then handed the document folder back to Helena. Helena was taken aback. "What do you mean by this?"

She thought to herself, "Is Charlotte changing her stance now after I went to bed with an older man and engaged in those disgusting acts to acquire these things?"

Charlotte responded, "I told you I wouldn't meddle in your affairs. The materials inside can certainly take down Aurora. All you have to do is hand them to the police."

Helena asked with a hint of doubt in her voice, "Really?"

Charlotte remarked, "You need to act fast. Aurora is very alert. If such important things go missing, she'll surely notice it soon. At that point, she'll have plenty of ways to conceal the situation. If you go to the police station now, you can catch her off guard."

Helena gritted her teeth and said, "You've certainly kept yourself clean and clear of this."

There wasn't much emotion on Charlotte's fair face. She paused for a moment before saying, "Well, you can think that way if you'd like. You should know what to do next. I'll take my leave for now."

...

Aurora placed a fruit platter on the coffee table. "What's the matter with you, Amanda? Are you still upset about what Helena did? You've been gloomy these past few days."

Amanda forced a smile and replied, "Yes. The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I wish I could kill that bitch."

Aurora pretended to be a good person. "All right, let's not be upset anymore. Char is still young, and it's only natural for her to make mistakes. Don't you agree? By the way, there's a jewelry exhibition today. Shall we go check it out?"

Aurora stated, "I've heard about this jewelry exhibition. They say the most affordable pieces there begin at a base price of 100 thousand dollars. Your husband's family is indeed well-off. Unlike mine, I can only window-shop."

Even though the Cash family struck it rich and could be considered very wealthy, it didn't justify her spending hundreds of thousands of dollars every month on clothes and handbags. In fact, there were already some clues to this, but back then, Aurora was simply blinded by her lavish lifestyle and didn't realize that something was amiss.

On the other hand, the scale of the Lopez Medical Corporation was indeed quite substantial. However, due to Jonathan's conservative business tactics, its actual profits were relatively low. There was even a period recently when it suffered losses. Nonetheless, Aurora still spent on whatever she wanted. Thus, it was evident she had other ways of making money.

Aurora had always perceived her sister as not particularly bright, so she didn't dwell on it. Instead, she said, "Well, life is short. If you like something, you've got to buy it to avoid regrets. The price is less important." She gave Amanda a gentle pull and added, "Let's go. You may consider it a way to unwind."

Amanda glanced at her own phone. She had received a message from Helena. Upon opening it, she suddenly displayed a contorted yet triumphant smile. She then looked up at Aurora and said, "I'll go upstairs to change my clothes first. You can wait for me here."

That smile made Aurora very uncomfortable, but she couldn't quite figure out why at the moment. Amanda's request wasn't unreasonable, so she nodded and replied, "Go ahead. Don't miss the time."
