Me And My Billionaire Husband (Aurora and Heath) novel Chapter 2

During Aurora’s hospital stay, no one came to visit her, and she was happy to have some peace. She asked the doctor for a full-body checkup.

In her memories, Aurora was always taking handfuls of pills, feeling groggy all day, her body weak and flabby. She wanted to change and needed to know what was wrong with her body.

The results of the examination showed that Aurora was very healthy. Apart from a concussion from accidentally rolling down the stairs, there was nothing wrong with her body.

What were all those random pills she had been taking before?

When Aurora was discharged, only a driver from the Pendleton family came to pick her up. She was panting and sweating just from walking down the stairs. As someone who once had abs, she was not used to having so much fat on her body. Even the driver looked at her disdainfully.

Arriving at the Pendleton villa, Aurora walked in to find her stepmother, Madeline, sipping tea in the living room. Sophia, the fourth daughter of the Pendleton family, was flipping through a magazine. Seeing Aurora return, all sweaty and disheveled, she frowned and said disdainfully, “You fat slob, disgusting.”

Aurora ignored her and headed upstairs.

“Stop!” Sophia yelled. “You slob, have you no manners? Don’t you know to greet your mother when you come home?”

“Mother? Whose mother?” Aurora replied.

“Of course, my mother. Your mother is long dead, you unwanted slob! A lowly wretch born of a mother but not raised by one!” Sophia taunted.

Unwanted, lowly wretch—Isabella had said those words to her too. She never knew who her parents were or why she grew up in the Abyss Group. She couldn’t deal with Isabella now, but was she supposed to let this little brat, Sophia, bully her too?

“Slap!” Aurora slapped her, her own palm jiggling from the force. Aurora sighed inwardly; she really needed to lose weight.

“You dare hit me? You think you can hit me?” Sophia said incredulously, covering her face. The old Aurora was bullied by everyone. Sophia had beaten her up many times, and she never even dared to cry out loud. How did she dare to hit her today?

Seeing Madeline silent, Aurora said, “Since you don’t plan to disturb Grandpa for now, I’ll go back to my room.”

Without waiting for Madeline’s reply, she went upstairs, completely unlike her previous obedient self.

Sophia was still crying. She had been the apple of her parents’ eye since childhood and had never suffered any grievances. Aurora dared to slap her? She would never let Aurora off!

Madeline, feeling sorry for her daughter, could only say, “Wait for your father to come back, and let him deal with her!”

Sophia finally relented.
