The road leading back from Hawthorne Manor’s main entrance stretched on for at least three miles.

After walking for half an hour, they could finally see

Hawthorne Manor in the distance.

However, after another thirty minutes of trudging forward, they still hadn’t reached it.

All three of them looked absolutely miserable.

Lauren especially had been complaining the entire way about how terrible she felt.

Back when Eleanor ran the Hawthorne family, she would have immediately fussed over Lauren and tried to make her comfortable.

Still, now Eleanor was exhausted herself and had no energy left to deal with Lauren’s whining.

She’d tried calling Dominic several times, but he never picked

you really feeling that bad?”

Lauren nodded pitifully and said, “Yes, it hurts.”

Eleanor took a deep breath and said, “Just hang in there a little longer. We’ll get there soon.”

After an hour of this nightmare walk, Eleanor was completely drained and had zero patience left for coddling anyone.

Normally, Lydia would have jumped in to comfort Lauren too, but right now she was so tired she couldn’t even force out a single word.

Lauren whimpered, “But it really hurts.”

The more Lauren complained, the angrier Eleanor got, and finally she just snapped and called Jason instead.

Eleanor was so furious that she called Jason directly.

Jason picked up pretty quickly. “Ma’am.”

“What the hell is Dominic so busy with? Why isn’t he answering his phone?”

He got to hide out at the office while they were stuck dealing with Aurelia. He was the one who brought this woman into

their family, and now he couldn’t even get rid of her. What kind 2/8

of situation was this?

Jason paused for a second on the other end. “He’s been in meetings all day. He hasn’t left the conference room yet.”

“What’s he planning to do about Aurelia?” Eleanor demanded.

Hearing that Dominic was still stuck in meetings only made Eleanor angrier. He was busy with work while the Hawthorne family situation kept dragging on.

When was Aurelia finally going to get out of their lives? She couldn’t take this anymore.

“Well, ma’am, as you’ve seen, she doesn’t want the divorce,” Jason said carefully.

Eleanor went silent.

The words hit Eleanor hard-Aurelia didn’t want the divorce.

Her chest tightened like someone had wrapped a hand around her heart and squeezed.

She hung up without another word.

What was the point of telling Jason all this anyway? He couldn’t make any decisions.

Thinking about all the problems at Hawthorne Group just made Eleanor even more irritated.

Lauren grabbed Eleanor’s arm, her voice breaking. “Eleanor, I’m seriously in pain here.”

Eleanor shot her a frustrated look and snapped back, “I know that, but what do you want me to do about it? All our cards

are maxed out, and Dominic can’t do anything about it either.” Just thinking about their situation made her chest tighten with

resentment.

And honestly, Lauren whining like this nonstop was getting on her nerves. She needed to grow up.

Lydia cut in sharply, “Enough already. Let’s just go. I want to get back, eat something, and pass out.”

At this point, Lydia didn’t even care what kind of garbage Aurelia was planning to feed them anymore.

All she wanted was to drag herself back, shove some food in her mouth, and crash.

She was starving, freezing, and exhausted-walking down this endless road in the dark.

She’d never suffered like this in her entire life, not once, and. now Aurelia had put her through every miserable experience imaginable.

Lydia couldn’t help but curse inwardly. 4/8

Despite the fear Grant still triggered in her, Lydia had made up her mind-she was going to take him from Aurelia, no matter what it took.

Meanwhile, Chloe was driving to see Aurelia.

Halfway there, she spotted Lydia, Eleanor, and Lauren trudging along the side of the road and did a double-take.

Then she hit the gas and zoomed right past them without slowing down.

Eleanor saw the headlights approaching and was about to throw her hand up to flag the car down, but it shot past them before she could even react.

Lydia watched the car drive away and stomped her foot in frustration. “Mom, why didn’t you stop the car? They could’ve given us a ride!”

She was exhausted and ready to drop.

Eleanor shot back, “Don’t blame me. Why didn’t you wave them down yourself?”

Lydia had no response to that.

Lauren felt her temper rising, too.

Fine. She’d wait until Marilyn got back from Germany, and

then they’d settle this properly.

She was seeing things clearly now. When Eleanor’s life wasn’t going well, she took it out on everyone around her.

Lauren had just given birth to a Hawthorne family child, no less, and instead of being taken care of during her recovery, she was getting attitude. They had the nerve to give her dirty looks when they should’ve been waiting on her hand and foot.

Meanwhile, Chloe drove straight to Hawthorne Manor and grabbed several bags from the car.

Inside, Aurelia was trying on the red diamond bracelet Gareth had sent over when Chloe walked in carrying all those packages.

“What are you doing here with all this stuff?” Aurelia asked.

“Grant asked me to bring it over,” Chloe replied.

Aurelia paused.

Grant?

She’d been so focused on making the Hawthornes miserable

these past few days that she’d utterly forgotten about Grant’s 6/8

promise to take her out for good food.

But staying put at the manor was the best way to make them suffer-her presence alone was enough to ruin their peace.

“These are all supplements. Have the nutritionist check them and prepare them for you.” Chloe handed everything directly to Gareth, and he took them before passing them to a servant.

The servant immediately brought everything to the kitchen.

Aurelia was having afternoon tea at the moment, and Chloe poured herself a cup too. “Wow, this is really good.”

Just from the smell alone, she could tell it was good for the body.

Though honestly, Aurelia’s body needed all the nourishment it could get right now.

Aurelia speared a piece of fruit with her fork and offered it to Chloe, who took it and popped it straight into her mouth.

Then she turned to Aurelia and asked, “Hey, on my way here, I saw those three women walking along the road. What’s going

on?”

“The household needs to cut costs, so cars waste too much gas. They’re not allowed to use them freely anymore,” Aurelia said.

Chloe was stunned speechless when she heard that. 7/8

But a moment later, a look of pure satisfaction spread across her face. “You’re brilliant, you know that?”
