Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 178

Chapter 178

Wendy avoided her gaze, pretending not to understand what Aurora was saying.

“What are you talking about, Aurora? I don’t get what you mean.”

Aurora let out a cold scoff, saying nothing, just watching this woman put on her little act.

Her performance was so clumsy that anyone with half a brain wouldn’t fall for it.

But of course, someone actually did.

Rachel jumped in without a second thought, standing protectively in front of Wendy.

She snapped at Aurora, “Don’t make things hard for Wendy. She can say whatever she wants. It’s none of your business.

“You’re nothing more than Wendy’s shadow anyway.”

That line struck a nerve. Aurora’s fingers curled into a tight fist.

Even Leonard couldn’t help but glance at her.

Her face turned grim, eyes locked coldly on Wendy.

So, this was what Wendy had been spreading behind her back.

And now, with Lucas nowhere around, she didn’t even bother keeping up the act.

dabout?

This was the good little childhood friend Lucas always talked about?

Wendy tugged at Rachel’s sleeve, trying to stop her. “That’s enough, Rachel. Don’t say any more.”

“This is a family matter. I don’t want to upset you. It’s not my place to talk about it.”

“Did I say anything wrong?” Rachel declared self–righteously.

“If you want to put it nicely, she’s a latecomer. But to put it bluntly, she’s a thief–a homewrecker.

“And that man beside her–don’t you already have a family? Standing here with her now, what’s that supposed to mean? You’re

nothing but a shameless woman!”

Even Leonard found it hard to listen any longer.

He was about to step forward and stop her, but Aurora reached out and stopped him.

Confused, he looked at her, trying to understand why.

This woman was clearly out of line–why hold back now?

This didn’t seem like Aurora at all.

But in the very next second, she flipped everything on its head.

She strode forward and grabbed the finger Rachel had been pointing at her with, twisting it sharply.

Rachel let out an immediate cry of pain.
