Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 89

Chapter 89

“Aurora, you have to believe me! I really have no interest in the Vanguard Group project. If you secure it, I’d be genuinely happy for you, I swear!”

Aurora looked at Lucy, pressing her lips together before giving her a firm pat on the shoulder. “Lucy, don’t worry. I understand. We’ve worked together long enough–I know what kind of person you are.‘

Hearing this, Lucy’s eyes welled up with tears.

In the office, she had always been the kind of person who gave more than she received.

She was warm and helpful, always the one people turned to when they needed water refilled or documents printed.

Yet once, when something went missing, she was the first suspect.

That moment shook her.

She had asked why, and the response was something she never expected.

They said that because she got along with everyone, she had more opportunities to steal than anyone else.

In that instant, Lucy had felt the weight of human malice.

Still, she never let it dull her warmth toward life.

So, when Aurora trusted her without hesitation this time, she was both surprised and deeply moved.

She never thought someone would believe in her so unconditionally, especially someone she hadn’t even known for that long.

Seeing Lucy’s tearful eyes, Aurora felt at a loss.

She quickly grabbed a tissue and gently wiped her tears, her tone carrying a rare hint of panic. “What’s wrong? Why are you

suddenly so upset?”

“I already told you that I believe you.”

Aurora truly didn’t understand why Lucy was so emotional.

But Lucy simply shook her head, her eyes glistening. “It’s nothing… I just get emotional sometimes.”

“It feels good to know you don’t doubt me.”

Aurora’s gaze flickered, but she didn’t press further.

Everyone had things they preferred to keep to themselves.

“It’s fine. I have my own people to deal with this matter. Don’t worry.”

Lucy nodded seriously, her expression firm. “Aurora, just be careful around Linda. She really had bad intentions earlier–I saw it

with my own eyes.”

Aurora’s gaze darkened. She didn’t respond, but her face grew serious.

“Oh, right.” Lucy glanced at her. “The manager didn’t call you in for anything major, did he?”

“No, just checking on the project’s progress.”

Lucy nodded again and didn’t press further.

Not far away, Linda watched the two chatting and laughing, her fists clenched tightly in anger.

Bitch!

Coming out of the manager’s office with such a smug smile–she must have gotten something out of it.

As a woman herself, Linda knew exactly how Aurora had climbed her way up.

With a face and body like that, it was no surprise the higher–ups favored her.
