Billionaire’s Regret After Losing Her (Aurelia) novel Chapter 78

Chapter 78 Not Our Business

Aurelia stepped out of the doctor’s office, her face cold and menacing.

Grant’s bodyguards were waiting outside with Gareth.

Seeing her emerge, Gareth helped her settle into the wheelchair. She sent the recording from her phone to him.

After opening and reviewing it, Gareth asked Aurelia, “The doctor confessed everything?”

Aurelia nodded. “Yeah.”

She had to admit, Marilyn and Lauren had really pulled out all the stops to take her down.

Gareth asked, “Should we file legal charges against her now?”

Aurelia shook her head. “Hold off. Sending her to jail that easily would be too kind. We’ll handle it when I get back to Germany.”

For now… She wanted Marilyn to feel the helplessness of falling from grace.

They loved using their power to bully and intimidate people. Well, this time they’d get a taste of being powerless.

Gareth understood what Aurelia meant and nodded. “Got it.”

Gareth wheeled Aurelia toward the underground parking

garage.

In the elevator, they ran into Lydia, whose face was covered with a large bandage.

When Lydia saw Aurelia, her eyes filled with pure hatred.

“Are you happy now that you’ve ruined me?” Lydia said through gritted teeth.

Aurelia replied flatly, “You’re mistaken. I didn’t touch your face.”

Last night, when Dominic struck her, even Aurelia had been shocked.

But seeing Lydia still talking back, battered and unrepentant

proved she hadn’t learned a thing.

Lydia’s breath hitched with anger. “You didn’t hit me, everything happened because of you.

“And now you want us to give everything back to you. Didn’t you pretend not to care about the Hawthorne family’s money before? What’s with this now? You want it all?

“You’re such a fake! Finally showing your true colors, huh?”

Lydia got angrier with every word, her contempt for Aurelia growing more obvious.

In her fury, she tried to lunge at Aurelia, but Grant’s bodyguard stopped her immediately.

That made Lydia even angrier, and she glared fiercely at

Aurelia.

Aurelia said, “I don’t bother hiding who I am, but what about you? You’ve been stealing all these years, so why don’t you dare show Dominic your true self?

“Now you’re mad at me for not hiding mine? If you’re so brave, stop hiding yours.”

Lydia stammered, “You…”

Aurelia’s retort left her tongue-tied with rage.

Aurelia went on, “What’s wrong? You’re so disgusting, and you

Lydia was already furious, and Aurelia’s words left her completely lost for words.

Aurelia was with Gareth and two other bodyguards. Lydia knew they were all Grant’s men.

She glared at Aurelia. “You’d better stay away from Grant!”

Eleanor had arranged for Ivy to go to the Fletcher family as a matchmaker. If it worked out, she’d be engaged to Grant soon.

This warning was to keep Aurelia from getting involved with

Grant.

Hearing Lydia’s warning, Aurelia smiled faintly. “Acting like this, what do you think you are to Mr. Fletcher anyway?”

Lydia spluttered, “You…”

She’s so annoying!

Aurelia knew exactly what Lydia was thinking.

Eleanor was always keeping tabs on when Grant would come back to the country.

In the months since Grant’s return, if it hadn’t been for

play matchmaker,

Aurelia raised an eyebrow. “When you actually have the status to give me warnings like that, then we’ll talk, Por now…”

Aurelia paused, her smile widening, as Lydia’s face turned paler by the second.

Then she added, “For now, you’re nothing, Just a clown.”

“Aurelia, you’ve gone too far!” Lydia lost her temper completely.

The elevator reached the first floor, where some people were waiting to get off.

The moment the doors opened, Lydia stormed out in a rage.

When had Aurelia become so sharp-tongued?

In the underground parking garage, Gareth wheeled Aurelia out of the elevator. She seemed to be in good spirits.

Gareth asked, “Mr. Fletcher wouldn’t be into her, right?”

Aurelia replied with a smile. “Not our business.”

Chapter 79 Take Her Back by Force

Gareth’s phone vibrated with a new text.

He glanced at it quickly, then told Aurelia, “Lauren just went to see Marilyn, but Marilyn probably doesn’t have time for her right now.”

Aurelia replied, “Good. Let her be too busy.”

Wasn’t Lauren always strutting around like she owned the place, thanks to her so-called reliable mom backing her up? Now… well, now she’d get a taste of reality.

She added, “Turn up the pressure on Lauren’s side too.”

Gareth nodded. “Got it.”

They reached their parking spot.

Just as Aurelia was about to get in the car, more than a dozen bodyguards suddenly swarmed out, completely surrounding their vehicle.

Aurelia recognized the guy in charge. He was one of the bodyguards who used to accompany Dominic to major

corporate events.
