Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her (Aurelia) novel Chapter 116

Chapter 116 Be Strong

Over the past six months, whenever Lauren had an episode, she would always say she wanted Adrian. At the same time, Marilyn kept hinting that she hoped Lauren could be together

with Dominic.

Back then, Marilyn’s career overseas had been thriving.

Lauren was her only daughter, so even if Marilyn had already gained some benefits from the Hawthorne family, as long as she kept her business strong, everything she built would eventually become Lauren’s anyway.

And also, the Hawthorne family’s…

But now, the situation abroad had become a major crisis, and no one could say yet whether it could be resolved smoothly.

If it could not be resolved, then Eleanor would definitely not agree to Lauren and Dominic’s relationship anymore.

After weighing all of that in her mind, Eleanor finally spoke, her tone serious. “It has been half a year, Lauren. You need to be stronger.”

Lauren said nothing.

Both of them looked at Eleanor in disbelief.

Eleanor’s expression grew more severe, and her voice became heavier as she continued, “You are a mother of two children now. There are some things you cannot keep doing whenever you feel like it, do you understand?”

Lauren stayed silent, but her thoughts churned.

What was she talking about?

Was Eleanor implying that Lauren’s grief over Adrian was an act, and that she could not keep acting anymore?

Eleanor had supported her being together with Dominic before, and now she was changing her mind?

Lauren understood completely.

She remembered what her mother had told her before leaving New York. Eleanor was indeed the most realistic person of all.

If Marilyn fell, then Lauren would not have an easy life in the Hawthorne family either.

Lauren had not believed it at first, because ever since she married into the Hawthorne family, Eleanor had treated her

But now it seemed her mother had been right.

The situation in Germany was not even settled yet, and Eleanor was already hinting that Lauren should stop thinking about being together with Dominic.

Lauren sat stiffly without speaking.

Eleanor said, “Get some rest, and think carefully about how you want to live from here on out. The Hawthorne family will not treat you unfairly.”

But whether Lauren could continue to have anything to do with Dominic would depend on how her mother handled the crisis in Germany.

Lauren’s chest felt tight, as if she could not breathe properly.

Eleanor tossed out those words and turned away, then added to Lydia, “Come on.”

“I… I will stay and keep her company,” Lydia started to say.

But before she could finish, Eleanor shot her a cold look.

Lydia immediately stopped. “Fine. Let’s go.”

come see you tomorrow morning.”

With that, Lydia hurried after Eleanor and left the room.

Once Lauren was alone, her anger exploded. She swept

everything off the cabinet beside the bed, sending it crashing to

the floor.

The sound of shattering filled the room.

Lauren screamed, breaking down completely. “Ah!”

This was just ironic.

There had only been some bad news about her mother, and Eleanor was already becoming impatient.

Lauren thought of what Aurelia had said, that once Lauren lost her position, she would become someone who had nothing to do but live off the family.

Then, everyone would look down upon her.

Lauren had dismissed it at the time.

But what had Eleanor just meant?

And Lauren had not even been removed from her position at Hawthorne Group.

But Eleanor was already showing that kind of face? Then what would happen if her mother really collapsed?

A cruel streak flashed through Lauren’s eyes.

They wanted to treat her the way they treated Aurelia? In their dreams. Her mother would not fall that easily.

As long as she still had her mother’s support, no one would be allowed to treat her however they pleased.

After leaving Lauren’s room, Eleanor went straight to Dominic’s room instead.

On the way, Lydia asked, confused, “Mom, what did you mean? You know she is not stable right now. If she has an episode, she might hurt herself again.”

Even though Eleanor had not said it directly, both Lauren and Lydia had heard the shift.

Eleanor’s face was dark. “I received word that Marilyn’s

“What?” Lydia did not understand.

Eleanor said, “Her goods cannot be exported to Germany at all anymore. If the shipments cannot get in, then she will definitely face extremely high compensation.”

Lydia fell silent.

Extremely high compensation…

Then Lydia asked, “So what did you mean earlier? Are you worried she will take money from the Hawthorne family to help her mother?”

Eleanor said, “Money is not the main issue.”

“Then what is the main issue?” Lydia pressed.

Eleanor did not answer.

What a stupid question.

Was it not obvious enough after these six months?

“Enough,” Eleanor said impatiently. “Stop asking.”

It was annoying to even talk about it.

marry into their family. One was utterly useless, and the other was a lunatic.

Especially Aurelia.

After marrying Dominic, she had brought them no benefit at all.

When Eleanor walked into Dominic’s room, Dominic was drinking water, and Jason was opening the insulated food container.

Seeing that, Eleanor made a pointed remark, dripping with sarcasm. “In other families, when a husband is hospitalized, the wife stays by his side and takes care of everything. You get upset whenever we spoke ill of her, but she even poisoned you.”

The moment Aurelia was mentioned, Eleanor’s dissatisfaction rose again, thick and unfiltered.
