Chapter 230
Aurora pressed her lips into a faint smile. “It’s not about proving anyone wrong. I just want to lead the company toward the
international stage and open more paths for growth.”
Ian finally understood exactly where Aurora stood.
He’d always known she was someone with big ambitions. She was never meant to stay confined in a small world–her vision had always been much greater.
Aurora smiled again. “Go on, get back to work. As for the land, I’ll review the specifics myself. We don’t need to worry too much
about their side.”
“I understand,” he replied. “If you need anything, Miss Walton, just say the word.”
“Will do.”
Walking out of Aurora’s office, Ian felt completely at peace.
There was no point wasting time being angry at those people.
From now on, his path was side by side with hers.
Others watched as he walked past, head held high and couldn’t understand what he had to be so proud about.
Working under someone everyone had just mocked–what was there to be so cheerful about?
Even Tessa only gave him a glance from afar, her expression full of disdain.
If Aurora dared to push forward with this overseas project, those old–timers would turn on her fast enough.
Tessa didn’t need to lift a finger. Aurora would destroy the goodwill she’d built all by herself.
All she had to do was sit back and wait.”
Because of the land negotiations, Aurora was out early and back late every day.
With so many executives against the plan, she had to work even harder to break through the resistance.
As a result, she barely had time to see Lucas anymore.
He still regretted how cold he’d been to her during their last encounter, but he didn’t know how to fix it.
At night, Aurora would sleep in another room. They didn’t even run into each other.
One morning, Lucas got up early to make breakfast, hoping to catch her before she left, but by the time he finished, Aurora had
already walked out the door.

In the end, the breakfast he made ended up in Wendy’s stomach.

She, on the other hand, seemed perfectly pleased, while his expression had already darkened to the color of a storm cloud.
Lucas knew things couldn’t go on like this.
They needed to talk. Whatever it was, it had to be said face to face.
Sitting in his office, going over it again and again, he finally decided to head to Walton Corporation and find Aurora.
It was time they cleared the air.
The moment Lucas stepped into the Walton lobby, the two receptionists immediately recognized him.
After all, a man like Lucas was hard to forget–his striking features left a lasting impression with just one glance.
One of the receptionists blushed and asked politely, “Hello, are you here to see Miss Walton?”
Lucas gave a soft “Mm” in reply. “Do I need an appointment?”
Considering their relationship, the receptionist hesitated for only a second before shaking her head. “No need. You can take the
elevator up to the 66th floor. Her office is on the right when you exit.”
