It wasn’t Aurora’s idol, but her friend named Timone from when they were in middle school! Timone spoke up again after noticing Aurora’s displeased gaze, though she remained silent.“The day after tomorrow is Dharia’s birthday. She gave me an invitation yesterday. She said it’s going to be celebrated at the Underwater Hotel! I also heard that her boyfriend is a manager at Diamond Group! Now that’s what you call a real rich person!”“Thank goodness she’s free from that useless husband of hers! Otherwise, she’d probably be miserable for the rest of her life!”“Oh, by the way, Auro. Isn’t your birthday on the same day as hers? What has your boyfriend prepared for you?” Timone asked with a sarcastic tone.The man sitting behind the wheel cast a meaningful look at Aurora. Richard noticed this and only gave a brief glance at Timone’s boyfriend before smiling mockingly and said,“What have I prepared? Whatever she wants, I’ll give it to her! Including the whole world if she desires it! Are y
Timone’s eyes widened in shock. While looking towards the villa, she grabbed her boyfriend’s arm and said, “Honey, honey, quick, look at that!”“Isn’t that Aurora?”“Why are she and that trash here? The security guard wouldn’t let them in with clothes like that!”Just like her boyfriend, the man driving the BMW also regarded Richard as trash. And this truly shocked both of them. In their eyes, Richard wouldn’t even be able to afford a luxury car on his own. But now he was actually walking towards the villa. This made Timone’s heart race. She immediately got out of the car.From several meters away, she shouted, “Hey, Aurora! What are you two doing here?”Aurora had actually been aware of Timone’s presence for a while. She did this on purpose. She didn’t care if people said bad things about her, but she couldn’t tolerate Richard being insulted. So she urged Richard to head home immediately. And now was the perfect moment to strike back at Timone’s arrogance.“Of course, we’re heading h
Timone panicked as she saw the security guard appearing to show respect to Richard. Meanwhile, Richard looked at Timone with a sneer and said to the guard, “Is there a thief entering the villa? Is someone who enters their own home called a thief?”“Sorry, Sir! You are the owner of this villa,” the guard replied nervously.“Miss, you should be careful with your words. You have made accusations indiscriminately,” said the guard to Timone.Timone was utterly stunned now. Her face immediately became a mess of helplessness. She no longer had any means to fight back or even argue. She stood frozen in place, overwhelmed by embarrassment.“This trash really owns this villa!” Timone thought to herself.Aurora sat on the sofa in the villa’s lobby, watching Timone’s distressed face through the open door.Aurora looked delighted at the scene and suddenly burst into laughter, rolling around on her sofa. “Hahahaha! This is so funny, it’s so funny!”“Richard, look! Timone’s usually arrogant face is
The Hero of Rio Dio Country, leader of millions of soldiers and protector of hundreds of millions of people, has returned!After ending the call, Richard went to the lobby on the first floor. Aurora happened to be taking a shower, and her phone was left on the table.“Ding-dong!” Suddenly, the sound of a new message notification was heard.Unconsciously, Richard lowered his head and looked at the phone screen. He could clearly see the incoming message.[Sender: Skyler Group] [Content: Received! The contract has been signed and will be sent to Diamond Group tomorrow morning at 10.]“Skyler Group?”Richard furrowed his brow. “Isn’t that a company from Ligos city? Aren’t they supposed to send someone to negotiate with Diamond Group tomorrow? Why are they suddenly sending this message to Aurora? Has the negotiation already been done? And isn’t Skyler Group involved in gambling?”The gambling business controlled by Skyler Group had stirred up quite a commotion among the bosses throughout
With her arms folded across her chest, Aurora said with utmost seriousness, “Who said that the cooperation between Diamond Group and Skyler Group was canceled?”“Their side canceled the visit here; doesn’t that mean the deal has failed?” retorted one of the employees with a disgusted expression.Aurora walked over to the folder she had thrown on the table and picked up a stack of documents from it. She then slapped the documents onto the face of the speaking employee, saying, “Look at this, you fool! Look at this!”What is this?The emotional employee was stunned, trying to recover from the shock of the slap.The next moment, his eyes were fixed on the lines of text in the document.[Cooperation Agreement][Party One: Skyler Group, Ligos city][Party Two: Diamond Group, Almolia city]The text seemed to pierce sharply into his heart. His eyes widened in disbelief. “How is this possible? How could this happen?”“Huh? It’s already signed? How is that possible?”“The person responsible fo
“Just do whatever you want! I don’t care!” Richard said, causing Dharia to fall silent immediately.“Dharia, if you weren’t a woman, you would already be a corpse for slandering Aurora like that!” “Not only could she slap you, but she could slap all your family members.”“And I could help her send you straight to the hell. Got it?”After saying this, Richard grabbed Aurora’s hand and led her to the parking lot. At that place, Dharia could only glare at Richard’s back while cursing angrily, “Richard, you bastard! Just wait, you’ll regret it for the rest of your life!”It turned out Dharia couldn’t accept that the man she divorced after three years of marriage was now holding another woman with such sincerity.“Dharia!”A voice suddenly came from behind Dharia. As soon as Elvan arrived at Diamond Group, he immediately saw Dharia clearly. Without hesitation, he approached her.“Hey, I heard you mention Richard. Where is he?”Upon hearing that question, Dharia felt disgusted. “Never men
Grandma Nelsons was even more furious upon hearing Aurora’s rejection. “You fool! You have no right to refuse!”Carmen suddenly stood up and said to Aurora, “Aurora, Mr. Jazeel has a nice house and a luxury car. He’s also a manager at a big bank. He’s far better than Richard.”“Anyway, you’ll lose the bet tomorrow. An engagement now or later will be the same.”“Aurora, do you really want to live with that poor Richard, huh?” retorted the others.Aurora turned and glared at Carmen. “Shut your mouth! You’re the last person who has any right to control my life. I still remember how you treated me all these years. Now, it’s time for me to pay you back, bit by bit.”Hearing that, Carmen was shocked and her face flushed with anger.Aurora turned to Grandma and said, “Grandma, Richard is not trash, Richard is not poor. Just wait and see, he’s better than anyone here!”“It’s impossible for me to agree to marry Mr. Jazeel. Absolutely impossible. At first, I thought I was a Nelsons family membe
In just one sentence, the death penalty for Jazeel could be expedited. A person with a position as low as a bank manager like him would be too reckless to do anything to Aurora. In a few hours, someone would come to pick up Jazeel and inform him of his death sentence.The unfortunate manager didn’t yet know about his fate in the coming hours. He was currently preoccupied with how to get revenge on Richard for destroying his body.With the remnants of calm, Aurora moved closer to Richard. Her eyes scanned the people with malicious intentions toward her. She then whispered softly, “Richard, I want to go home.”“I don’t want them to die. I want them to experience something worse than death. As retribution for what they’ve all done to me for over 20 years.”After Aurora experienced this event, she was deeply hurt by everyone in the Nelsons family. From now on, she would no longer hesitate to seek revenge on the Nelsons family down to its roots.“Stop!”“Aurora, come back!”The grandma sh
