The Ex-Wife's Burning Elegance novel Chapter 2080

Aurora finally made a concession. "I can agree to let her have the baby, but whether it's a boy or a girl, it has to be raised under my name.

Since Zara feels so guilty about what she did to McCoy, her only job is to give birth. Once the child is born, she will have absolutely nothing to do with it.

Naturally, I will treat the child as my own."

Even though McCoy treated her well, Aurora's first instinct was always to weigh the pros and cons.

She wasn't like Nora; she had no real romantic feelings for McCoy.

Furthermore, raising the child herself meant she gained another piece of leverage—another tool she could use.

Whether the child turned out good or bad was entirely up to her, much like the matriarchs of old.

Aurora had always thought Nora was an idiot.

Giving up a life of luxury and running away from home over a child?

If she just kept the child under her control, she could do whatever she wanted.

Mrs. Chapman saw right through Aurora's intentions. Instead of calling her out, she looked at Zara.

"What do you think, Zara?"

Zara, who was usually impulsive and stubborn, uncharacteristically smiled and agreed.

"Sure! I just want to make things right with McCoy."

Mrs. Chapman couldn't help but give Zara a second look.

Zara was a wildcard. Even if she agreed now, she could easily change her mind later, and no one would be able to stop her.

However, Aurora was no fool either.

Zara was completely out of her league if she thought she could outsmart Aurora.

Mrs. Chapman just wondered who had given Zara the brilliant idea to get pregnant in the first place.

Since Zara had no objections, the families reached a consensus.

By the time everything was settled, it was getting late.

Aurora turned to McCoy. "McCoy, Queenie needs to talk to me about something, so I'm going to see her. If you have work to do, go ahead. You don't have to wait for me."
