Chapter 1718 Going Out for a Walk

Sean suddenly paused his words for a moment, giving Ian the feeling that he was hesitant.
Sean suddenly paused his words for a moment, giving Ian the feeling that he was hesitant.

However, a few seconds later, he opened his mouth again and finished his words. “You should try and have a better attitude the next time you come.”

Ian didn’t reply to him immediately and the two men fell into silence.

Both of them were now grown ups, so it was impossible for them to not understand the meaning behind each of their words.

Sean wants me to have a better attitude toward the old man so that he will consider me more when redistributing his will, but I’m not sure whether Sean is just using me to weaken the shares of Leah and her sons, or he actually wants me to have more of the shares.

Outside the room, Aurora stared at the door of Ian’s room for a while before asking suspiciously, “What is he talking about with Sean? Why are they taking so long?”

Cindy glanced at the door and said, “Maybe they are talking about what to do next. After all, we need to make a meal out of the news that we just threw out. If it doesn’t cause any uproar in the end, the article will turn out to be useless.”

Upon hearing that, Aurora pursed her lips and added, “Maybe the article wasn’t intended for people on the Internet to see.” For a moment, Cindy was left dumbfounded as she couldn’t understand the convoluted plan behind all this, but then, Aurora stood up and stretched her body. “When will this ever end? Can’t we all just go on with our lives happily? What’s the point of all this scheming?” After that, she turned toward Cindy and asked, “Do you want to go out for a walk?”

After glancing at the door, Cindy assumed that Ian wouldn’t come out anytime soon, so she stood up and answered, “Alright. Let’s go for a walk.”

Without changing their clothes, the two of them went downstairs right away in their casual outfits.

Before leaving the house, they shouted at Ian in his room, telling him that they were going out.

After he gave them a clear reply, Cindy and Aurora linked their arms and left.

The weather today was a little cloudy and bad, but it didn’t stop them from having a walk.

As the two of them walked aimlessly along the path, they talked about the news that Simon broke online not long ago.

Aurora did not keep in touch with Leah and her children because back when she was together with Bryce, Leah hadn’t appeared yet.

Afterward, Bryce went through several women before settling on Leah.

At that time, Aurora felt a little resentment inside her heart, but she still followed news about him.

At first, she thought that just like her, Leah was just one of Bryce’s toys that he would throw away whenever he felt bored, but unexpectedly, she managed to get a foothold on his side in the end.

Back then, their relationship caused quite a stir but because Bryce always had the reputation of a womanizer, everyone was already used to his scandals.

On top of that, he and Leah were married afterward, so the scandals were quickly swept aside by their marriage.

At that time, Aurora couldn’t help but sigh with emotions when he read the news.

She had no regrets or sadness as she felt that Bryce finally met his match.

She wasn’t sure whether Bryce was starting to behave himself after marrying Leah, but given that she stayed by his side for all these years, it showed that she was no ordinary woman.

If nothing else, she is at least smarter than most women when dealing with sticky situations.

Presently, due to the bad weather, there weren’t many people outside.

Cindy and Aurora walked for a long while, but they only saw a few people walking around.

As they kept on walking and chatting, Cindy lifted her head and saw a fitness park not far ahead.

At this point, there was no one else in the park.

Seeing the fitness park, Cindy suddenly thought about Peter. Even though the two of them didn’t do anything embarrassing, it still felt a bit awkward to her ever since that day.

However, Aurora didn’t know about the things that happened between Cindy and Peter, so the former immediately brought her over to the park. “Due to the time, it is quite quiet here. In fact, the best time to come here is the evening because there will be a lot of people.”
