Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294

“Son, just listen to your father and stay home,” Crystal advised.

“Don’t worry, even if you’re grounded, I’ll still make sure you eat well. I won’t let the housekeeper shortchange you.”

With that, she slipped away upstairs and closed her door, leaving Joseph standing alone in the living room.

He still didn’t understand what “mistake” his father had been talking about.

What had he done wrong?

He had already smoothed things over with Judy–was it just because his confession to Aurora failed? That counted as a mistake?

She didn’t want to think about any of it anymore–the mess, the drama, none of it.

Right now, she just wanted to clear her mind.

After her shower, Aurora instinctively headed toward the guest room.

Over the past few days, Wendy had been surprisingly quiet.

She didn’t stir any drama. It was as if she had suddenly calmed down.

Some days, she’d even greet Aurora if she was in a good mood.

On bad days, she’d ignore her completely, acting like she didn’t exist.

She kept living there, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

At first, it made Aurora uncomfortable.

‘But over time, she got used to it.
