Dominic said, “I don’t know whether you’re immoral or not, but I’ve never seen anything like you taking a daughter-in-law’s belongings.”

Eleanor tried to argue, “I only did that because…”

Dominic cut her off coldly. “This is just humiliating.”

Eleanor choked. “You… you…”

Faced with her own son throwing words like that at her, Eleanor was so furious she could not even find a response.

Dominic hung up.

Then he called Lydia. He made it clear that for the next year, she would not be able to draw a single cent from Hawthorne Group, and every one of her credit cards was being frozen.

If she wanted to keep freeloading off the family for life, she could try, but from now on, every Hawthorne family expense would be tightly controlled.

Even if she wanted to live off them, she would not be able to.

Lydia was so angry she could not sleen the entire night. X Close

That night, aside from Aurelia, everyone else was tormented by their own anger and panic.

The next morning, Aurelia woke up refreshed, only to find Chloe sitting on the bed with a resentful expression.

The dark shadows under her eyes made it obvious she had not slept well.

Aurelia looked at her. “Not used to the bed?”

If it were about being unable to sleep in a new place, Aurelia never had that problem. As long as she got sleepy, she could fall asleep anywhere the moment her head hit the pillow.

Chloe stared at her. “Last night, I answered some calls. You didn’t hear any of it?”

“You did?” Aurelia sounded genuinely blank. “I didn’t know.”

“You kicked me,” Chloe said, almost choking on the rage. “My phone was ringing, and you didn’t hear it?”

Aurelia said calmly, “I forgot.”

She vaguely remembered a vibration, the kind that was irritating enough to ruin a dream.

She kicked Chlo Gossyp

after that everything was a fog.

Chloe yawned hard. “I’m exhausted. Dominic, that bastard.”

“He called?” Aurelia asked.

“Of course he did,” Chloe said. “Once he found out you weren’t in jail, he kept asking where you were.”

Aurelia fell silent.

Asking where she was, and when he couldn’t get an answer, he would just blame Grant again, wouldn’t he?

What a jerk.

Aurelia picked up her phone and glanced at it, and she saw a string of calls from unfamiliar numbers, starting around one in the morning and continuing until half an hour ago.

They were probably all Dominic.

As she was thinking that, Lucas called. Aurelia answered. “Hello.”

“It’s me,” Dominic’s voice came through.

Aurelia’s lips twisted.

She was about to hang up, but before she could pull the phone away, Dominic spoke again, his voice hoarse and exhausted.

“Where are you?”

Aurelia’s tone was flat. “I’m not in jail, and I don’t need you to come pull me out.”

Her voice was so calm, as if she truly did not care about his attitude yesterday, and that calmness made Dominic’s heart go hollow on the other end.

“I…” Dominic started.

Aurelia cut him off. “Whether what I did was right or wrong is not for you to judge, and it’s certainly not for you to decide whether I should ‘learn a lesson’ or ‘suffer a bit.””

Dominic went silent again, and the tightness in his chest only

grew.

“Where are you?” he asked, and now there was unmistakable panic in his voice. “I’ll come get you.”

It was obvious that although he had acted that way yesterday, he had never intended for her to find out.

Aurelia asked, evenly, “You didn’t get to see me soften, s

“No,” Dominic said.

“Or

you

didn’t get to see me recognize that I’m nothing without the Hawthorne family, so you’re disappointed?” Aurelia pressed.

Dominic said nothing.

Aurelia did not say another word. She hung up decisively.

Things had reached this point, and there was truly nothing left to say between her and Dominic.

She also hoped Dominic would finally understand that.

Chloe scowled. “And he still has the nerve to call you?”

How shameless.

Aurelia did not even want to comment on Dominic anymore.

On Dominic’s end, Lucas wore the resentful, half-awake expression of someone who had been dragged out of bed.

He usually did not wake up until after nine,

He had only learned about Dominic and Aurelia late last night, and he also knew that Aurelia had not gone to jail, that she had been taken away halfway by Grant.

That was why he hadn’t gone to the hospital. He intended to sleep and then visit Dominic in the morning.

Instead, Dominic hauled him out of bed a little after seven.

Now, Dominic lit a cigarette and took drag after drag.

Lucas could not stand watching him like this. “So… did Aurelia poison you?”

“No,” Dominic said, taking another drag.

Lucas frowned harder. “If it wasn’t her, then what exactly are you doing?”

It really was impossible to understand.

The poison was not even Aurelia’s doing, but when he learned the police had taken her away, he made no move, and then Aurelia somehow found out that he had not intended to pull

her out.

Geez. Their relationship is beyond repair.
