Loving You All Over Again (Aurora and Maverick) novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61

The word ‘daughter–in–law made Scott’s expression turn dark. He wondered if these two were deliberately trying to upset him.

Aurora smiled faintly, looked at Scott, and said, “Did you hear that? She wants you to leave quickly and stop interfering with our family

matters.”

The words “daughter–in–law and our family struck Scott like two sharp blades cutting deep into him.

Scott took a deep breath, and just when Aurora thought he would explode, he chose silence instead.

Then he said. “Alright, have a good talk. I’ll come by another day.”

Suppressing his anger, Scott managed not to reveal a single crack in his composure.

It wasn’t until Scott had left that Aurora spoke up, “Mom, you haven’t had breakfast yet, right? I happen to have a bowl of lean meat and vegetable porridge here, with eggs as well,

Ruth didn’t respond right away. Only after confirming that Scott wouldn’t be coming back did she turn to look at Aurora and ask, “What happened last night? And what about the things online?”

“Something online?” Aurora hadn’t checked her phone since entering the hospital yesterday and had no idea what was happening

online

She hurriedly pulled her phone out of her bag. Only then did she know how much the news about her relationship with Scout had spread on the Internet.

Some were saying it was a classic “hero saves the damsel,” while others said that they had originally planned to have an affair, but they were discovered.

Rumors swirled, and nearly everyone was talking about her and Scott. The topic was still trending, showing no signs of fading.

Although no one directly mentioned Maverick, everyone had a question in their mind. Where was Maverick? They had such a sensational wedding, but his wife was having an affair with someone else!

Why didn’t he come out to manage it? Or was he already disappointed in Aurora and let her come out to find her old lover?

Seeing Aurora’s face grow increasingly pale, Ruth understood that she had already seen everything. “What do you plan to do?”

The incident had already happened. Regret and apologies would be useless now.

Aurora pursed her lips. “I went to Mars Bar yesterday to find a friend. She was being harassed. I didn’t know Scott was there too.”

Ruth had definitely seen Scott’s face before, and Aurora didn’t expect her to forget what he looked like. Rather than lying and deceiving, it was better to be honest from the start.

Ruth frowned slightly and said, “I don’t want to hear your explanation. I’m asking you how you plan to deal with this matter. Your explanation should be directed at the netizens. I want you to minimize the impact.”

Nothing was more important than this. The longer she delayed, the faster things would escalate online,

In wealthy aristocratic families, no one liked to lose fare. The broken engagement was already a scandal back then, and she had thought that Aurora lacked sense. Now, it was clear that her assumption was right.

I hadn’t been long since the wedding, last Aurora was already cheating on her son

Aurora felt unary, wring her heard Tl release a clarification statement. We just ran into each other at the bar. None of the things people are saying a tually happened They love to complicate things and gossip behind our backs. Mom, you should understand that, nigher

“Understanding is one thing, actions are another. Do you think your statement will make them forget about your secret meeting with So the har? You’re old enough to know better. How can you not understand?” Buth said, frustrated with Austra’s lack of awareness

had speed it out so clearly, but Aurora still remained unmoved.

Chapter 61

“We didn’t meet in secret.” Aurora raised her head, her eyes tinged red.

From the beginning to the end, there was no such thing as a secret meeting.

If anyone was secretly meeting, it was her meeting with Mia. It had nothing to do with Scott

Ruth’s expression was filled with disbelief and a hint of disappointment. “I thought you had enough sense to be part of the Parker family. It seems I misjudged you. You show up at a bar in the middle of the night, and then rumors spread about Scott rescuing you. And you still claim there’s nothing between you two?”

She went on, “Be honest, if you have feelings for Scott, then divorce Maverick right away! If not, then stay home and be a proper wife. What’s with always running around outside? Are you trying to embarrass my son?”

“I didn’t…” For a moment, Aurora did not know how to explain. But Ruth’s words keep coming. “Still trying to make excuses? How did the Sage family raise a daughter like you?”

Ruth’s cold gaze pierced through Aurora, making her feel extremely uncomfortable

She frowned and said, “Mom, it’s really not what you think. What do you want me to do? Just tell me.”

What do I want you to do? This is your problem, you should handle it yourself! If you like Scott, why did you agree to marry Maverick

the first place? Was it because of that issue with the Sage family?”

The Sage family had indeed faced some financial difficulties, but it wasn’t as if they had to sell their daughter to secure peace.

Aurora’s expression grew even darker, and she lowered her head, suddenly forcing a bitter smile. “Mom, we’re talking about how to fix what happened last night. Why bring the whole Sage family into this? Is that really necessary? I’m now a daughter–in–law of the Parker family!”

She knew that if something happened, the Sage family would be affected, but the Parker family would be hit the hardest.

Ruth gasped. “Are you threatening me?”

“I’m not threatening you, just speaking the truth,” Aurora replied with a bitter smile, her eyes filled with a hint of helplessness. “Mom, maybe you can’t see it now, but I won’t take sides with Scott I do like Maverick, or I wouldn’t have agreed to marry him”

Aurora’s helplessness deepened, and she no longer spoke in anger or resentment.

Ruth looked at Aurora with confusion, unsure of what exactly was going on in her mind.

Just then, Maverick hurried back and was about to open the door when he overheard Aurora’s words of confession.

A thoughtful expression flickered across his face, and the fatigue from working late seemed to vanish instantly.
