Aurora Walton and Lucas Carter novel Chapter 1840

When the time came, there would be no need to worry about Kenneth anymore.

He might even outperform him.

And who could say when Judy might return to him again?

Thinking of that, a quiet smile lingered in Joseph’s eyes.

He never expected good fortune to arrive so suddenly.

After all, Yvonne had always been guarded around him, and he knew it well.

That was exactly why he never pushed her for anything.

Some things couldn’t be rushed; the harder one pressed her, the more she pushed back.

Letting things unfold on their own worked far better, just like now.

He hadn’t even considered certain possibilities, yet she had already taken the initiative.

It was absurd when he thought about it, but that was how suddenly everything had happened.

Meanwhile, after Yvonne left, her heart pounded like a drum.

She couldn’t stop wondering whether she had made the right choice.

But if she didn’t do this, she had no other option.

She couldn’t stay overseas indefinitely. She had to settle the matter with Edwin before she could return and continue expanding her influence abroad.

For now, the most urgent task was handling him first.

Even the online situation could be put aside for a while.

But the moment she thought of him, a headache crept in.

Still, no matter how troublesome it was, she had to face it eventually.

She finally understood that the more she feared something, the more it would become a demon in her heart, one she could never defeat.

If she could handle the online mess as well, it would be killing two birds with one stone.

Yvonne took out her phone, saw Aurora’s contact, and hesitated.

She didn’t know whether this attempt would work, nor what Aurora’s attitude toward her would be.

But no matter what, she had to try.

As long as there was an opening, she had to seize it.

The internet was already in an uproar about her.

If she failed to grab this chance, it would only mean she was letting others keep her under their heels.

She and Lucas had been together for so many years—Yvonne wasn’t ready to give up so easily.

If she walked away now, how could she possibly accept it?
