Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her (Aurelia) novel Chapter 251

Chapter 251 Take It Serious

Eleanor rushed forward to stop them, her voice rising in a shrill complaint.

But then one of the servants stepped up and slapped her hard across the face.

The air went dead silent.

Dominic, Eleanor, and Lydia all stood there stunned, unable to believe what had just happened.

Dominic especially-seeing these people so brazenly disrespect his own mother like that made his brain feel like it was about

to explode.

Before he could even process it, someone shoved him down with a loud thud.

Eleanor clutched her face, too furious to form words. “You-”

Her vision swam with dark spots, and she couldn’t even figure out what to say to these people anymore.

Gareth came down the stairs behind them.

He walked straight up to Dominic, his voice low and cold. “Is this how you all used to treat Ms. Sterling?”

That question made Eleanor and Lydia want to explode on the spot.

What the hell did he mean, “Is this how you treated Aurelia?”

Shouldn’t someone be asking how Aurelia had been treating them for the past two days?

How was it that her people were acting like they’d been the ones oppressing Aurelia this whole time?

Listen to that accusatory tone-who was really the one suffering and being tormented here?

Dominic lifted his head and followed a pair of long legs upward until his gaze locked with Gareth’s sharp eyes.

Gareth said, “From now on, when Ms. Sterling is sleeping, you won’t disturb her anymore.”

Eleanor snapped, “We never treated her like this before.”

“Oh really?” Gareth’s voice turned cold. “From what I’ve seen, you never cared about the time when you wanted to give her a hard time.”

Lydia fell silent.

Eleanor pressed her lips together and said nothing. 2/7

They both knew Gareth was right. In the past, whenever Dominic brought Aurelia home, they’d stay the night, and the next morning after Dominic left for work, Eleanor would send someone to wake her up. Even when Dominic went out at night, Eleanor would keep Aurelia up late doing whatever she demanded.

But wasn’t that what a wife was supposed to do?

What was Aurelia trying to say now? Did she have a problem with it?

Was she getting revenge for all those times?

Dominic gritted his teeth and said, “Tell them to let me go.”

In all of New York, who would dare treat him like this? Today was really opening his eyes to something new.

Now that she had Grant backing her up, she’d learned a few tricks, hadn’t she?

Gareth waved his hand, and the bodyguards who’d been holding Dominic down immediately released him.

Dominic stood up and wiped the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. Blood smeared across his skin.

His eyes turned ice-cold as he stared at Gareth and said, “I 3/7. don’t think you understand something. She and I aren’t

divorced yet. I need your permission to enter her room?”

Gareth leaned back and said, “Divorced or not, it doesn’t really matter anymore, Mr. Hawthorne. Maybe you shouldn’t take this marriage so seriously. After all, when Ms. Sterling used to take it seriously, none of you did.”

Back then, Aurelia had been sincere, and she’d fought hard to protect this marriage.

But all she got in return was resistance from every direction.

So now, of course, she wasn’t going to take it seriously either.

Dominic’s breathing turned heavy and dark as he said, “Who’s the one taking it seriously now? She’s the one who won’t

divorce me.”

“Divorced or not, hasn’t this marriage of yours always been half-real anyway?”

Dominic fell silent.

Eleanor and Lydia exchanged looks but said nothing.

Half-real. That one phrase said it all. So Aurelia was using her position as Dominic’s wife to cause chaos, but when it came to actually being his wife, that part was fake?

They could see it now, but just how far was she planning to

take this?

“Does she want us dead? If that’s what she wants, then she should just give us a quick end!” Eleanor shouted, her voice shaking with rage.

She really couldn’t take it anymore.

Gareth raised an eyebrow and said, “When you were all tormenting her before, you seemed pretty satisfied with yourselves, didn’t you?”

Lydia and Eleanor both went quiet after hearing that.

He was right. When they’d been tormenting Aurelia before, they hadn’t felt a shred of sympathy.

Now that Aurelia was tormenting them, she was going all out

too.

So she must be feeling pretty satisfied right now, wasn’t she?

What exactly did she want? What did they have to do to get her out of the Hawthorne Manor for good?

Gareth didn’t wait for a response and headed straight upstairs with his men.

Eleanor turned to Dominic, who sat on the couch with a stormy expression. “She wants to be Mrs. Hawthorne now?

You saw that, right? This is pure revenge.”

The helpless act she’d been playing for Dominic vanished, burned away by her rage.

She kept going, her voice rising. “What kind of wife acts like that? She actually said she wants to be Mrs. Hawthorne, the lady of this house.”

Eleanor couldn’t believe it. Aurelia had no class, no dignity, and she had the nerve to claim she’d be the matriarch of the Hawthorne family.

The audacity was unreal.

Dominic lit a cigarette and took a drag. He’d come straight from the office without eating dinner.

“Is there any food left?” he asked.

The moment the words left his mouth, he regretted them.

None of them had eaten.

“I haven’t had a real meal in two days,” Eleanor said, her voice tight with hunger and frustration.

She was starving.

useless now, like punching a pillow when he wanted to hit a wall. Aurelia had turned everything around on them.

Divorce. The word echoed in his mind, stronger than ever before.
