Chapter 221
“Alright, no rush. Just go ahead and use the materials,” David said with a smile, his tone clearly ingratiating.
Hearing that, Aurora’s suspicion only deepened.
Was this really the same David she used to know? Why did he seem like a completely different person now?
Back then, his tone was always so arrogant.
At best, he was indifferent–never once did he sound this eager to please.
Even after the call ended, Aurora was still staring at her phone, momentarily dazed.
As for David, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The supplies had been delivered.
Aurora would probably say something nice on his behalf.
If he could use this chance to get close to Vanguard Group, it was only a matter of time.
That thought alone lifted his spirits.
Once he built a connection with Vanguard, he definitely wouldn’t forget Aurora, the one who linked them.
This plan had been long in the making.
It was exactly why he’d been acting so accommodating toward her.
But on Aurora’s end, she was simply puzzled.
David really did seem different now.
Even her assistant had noticed it.
Aurora waved it off. “It’s fine. Let’s not overthink it. Since he gave us the supplies, we’ll use them. Worst case, we’ll make up

It was just like last time–when she secured the Vanguard project.
No one had seen it coming.
When the news reached Tessa, she was so furious that she swept everything off her desk in one violent motion.

The usual calm on her face vanished, replaced entirely by bitterness and jealousy.
“Why is it that Aurora always manages to turn things around?”
Tessa clenched her fists.
Something wasn’t right. It felt like someone was secretly helping Aurora.
Otherwise, how could she always come out on top so easily?
Reading the message sent by her informant, Tessa knew full well that Grace would now see Aurora in a whole new light.
After all, in Walton Corporation, capability was everything.
Even if she’d once had Grace’s favor, it was never something she could count on for the long run.
Tessa was painfully aware of that.
Clearly, she needed to come up with a new plan…
