Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her (Aurelia) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128 Fiancée?

+40 Bonus

Eleanor had the kitchen prepare a separate meal. She had already looked into Grant’s dietary preferences, deliberately avoiding anything he didn’t eat, selecting only the safest dishes. Everything was packed carefully before being handed to Lydia to deliver to Fletcher Group.

Before Lydia left, Eleanor added one more reminder, her voice deliberately lowered.

“Remember what Lauren told you. Soften your attitude. Rein in your temper.”

Lydia knew Lauren wasn’t wrong.

She nodded. “I know.”

But the irritation inside her didn’t truly fade. She couldn’t help feeling that she should not be blamed for how things had turned out.

Ever since Aurelia entered the Hawthorne family, everything had spiraled out of control.

If it had not been for Aurelia, she would never have been pushed into this position.

Lydia got into the car and left.

The housekeeper stood behind Eleanor and said quietly, “I hope Lydia can really keep her temper in check. I hear Mr. Fletcher isn’t easy to deal with.”

Grant had only returned to New York a few months ago.

But even in that short time, word had spread that he had a difficult temperament and that anyone who crossed him usually ended badly.

And Lydia had never been the type to ingratiate herself with

anyone.

If the two of them clashed head-on, this would be hard to pull

off.

Hearing this, Eleanor sighed. “I’ve said everything that needs to be said. I just hope she understands.”

With the Drake family now in trouble, it was even more important that things worked out between the Hawthorne family and the Fletcher family.

No major family reached the top on its own. Power always had to align with power.

And the Drake family was clearly on the brink of collapse.

That was why Eleanor was especially eager for something to come of Lydia and Grant.

Lydia arrived at the entrance of Fletcher Group dressed in a Chanel ready-to-wear outfit. After stepping out of the car, she adjusted her hair with an air of confidence.

She lifted her gaze toward the Fletcher Group building.

In a place like New York, it had to be said that Fletcher Group was one of the very few that could truly rival them.

Carrying the carefully prepared meal, Lydia walked straight into the lobby and up to the front desk, her expression cool and assured.

The receptionist saw her and stepped forward politely. “Hello, ma’am. Who are you here to see?”

“Your boss, Grant Fletcher,” Lydia said, adjusting her sunglasses.

The moment she mentioned Grant, a faint trace of disdain flickered across the receptionist’s eyes.

It was obvious that many women had come looking for Grant

before.

Seeing the food container in Lydia’s hands only made her intentions clearer.

Still, the receptionist asked politely, “Do you have an appointment?”

“I’m his fiancée. Do I need an appointment?”

The receptionist froze.

Fiancée? Mr. Fletcher’s?

That’s new.

Even so, she replied carefully, “That status still requires registration and Mr. Fletcher’s approval before access is granted.”

“Then ask him.”

“Mr. Fletcher didn’t come into the office this morning. He’s not here right now.”

After this exchange, Lydia’s patience was nearly gone.

“He’s not here? Then find out where he is.”

The receptionist hesitated.

Like… how am I gonna do that?

Lydia’s temper flared. She removed her sunglasses and shot the receptionist a sharp look.

“I’ll wait in his office and call him to ask when he’s coming back.”

“That’s not allowed.”

The receptionist’s tone hardened in response to Lydia’s glare.

“What did you say? Do you even know who I am? Believe it or not, I can make you—”

“Mr. Fletcher is not in the office, and no one is permitted to enter his office in his absence.”

Lydia was cut off mid-sentence.

She was so angry she felt dizzy.

All these years, she had gone wherever she pleased. Since when did a receptionist dare stop her?

“Then call him and ask when he’s coming back.”

Even in her fury, she had no choice but to suppress it.

Grant is close to Aurelia. That’s why Aurelia dares to act the way she does.

So no matter what, she had to secure Grant.

The receptionist didn’t care for Lydia’s attitude, but she was also wary.

If Lydia really was Grant’s fiancée, dismissing her outright wasn’t an option.

Although no one at the front desk had ever heard of Grant having a fiancée, protocol still mattered. A quick confirmation

was necessary.

“May I have your name?”

“Lydia Hawthorne.”

She stated her name outright.

What kind of look is this?

Once she was with Grant, the first thing she would do was fire this receptionist.

Ugh!

The receptionist called Grant’s assistant, Miles.

The call was picked up quickly. “Hello.”

“Miles, there’s someone here claiming to be Mr. Fletcher’s fiancée. She wants to go to Mr. Fletcher’s office.”

“What?”

“Mr. Fletcher’s fiancée, Ms. Lydia Hawthorne. She’s here to deliver lunch and is asking when Mr. Fletcher will be back.”

The receptionist deliberately emphasized the word “fiancée.”

As she said it, she instinctively glanced at Lydia.

Lydia met her gaze and nearly exploded with anger.

That look again? God, I can’t believe it! Is this how Grant lets his people behave?

There was a pause of about ten seconds on the other end of the line.

The receptionist, standing in the now silent lobby, thought the call might have dropped.

She spoke again cautiously. “Miles?”

“Mr. Fletcher says, “Throw her out.”

The receptionist fell silent.
