However, it seemed like Aurora didn’t want to head out as she informed Cindy that she had something to eat at home and asked them to enjoy their lunch instead.
Aurora sounded as if she had just woken up since her voice was still hoarse.
Then, Cindy hesitated. “If you’re not that hungry, why don’t we pack some food home for you once we have finished our lunch?”
After contemplating for a moment, Aurora replied with a soft mumble, “Sure.”
Initially, Cindy wanted to ask Aurora what she was doing right now, but she knew that Aurora probably wouldn’t tell her the truth. Since they would be returning home after the meal, Cindy didn’t ask anything more.
She kept her phone away after hanging up on the call with Aurora. “Mrs. Morgan can’t make it as she’s tired and wants to rest at home. Let’s just take something away for her after we finish our meal.”
Ian didn’t think too much about it as he stood up. “In that case, what do you want to eat?”
Nevertheless, Cindy wasn’t craving for anything in particular as her appetite wasn’t great.
The two of them went to the third floor where there were restaurants and cafes.
Then, they found a random shop selling grilled meat and entered the place.
At this time, there were barely any people in the shop as it was rare for people to have grilled meat during the day.
Cindy and Ian took their seats after they picked a table by the window.
When they were ordering the food, her phone vibrated twice. Thinking that it was text messages from Aurora to inform them about what she wanted to eat, Cindy took her phone out to see that it wasn’t Aurora texting her.
The text messages were sent from an unknown number, but the numbers were familiar to Cindy as she recalled this number belonging to Leah since she had seen it on Ian’s phone in the past.
After hesitating for a moment, Cindy showed her phone to Ian. “She has sent me some text messages.”
He was surprised before he took her phone to read Leah’s message.
Judging from the text messages, Leah didn’t say anything outrageous and her tone sounded alright.
She wanted to talk about the Morgan Family’s issues with Cindy.
Ian and Cindy were confused upon seeing Leah’s text messages.
If Ian was already barely related to the Morgan Family, how could Cindy be involved in it?
Cindy never had any relations with the Morgan Family in the past and she didn’t have any in the present either.
Right then, she couldn’t help but think that Leah was looking for the wrong person to talk to, but she was probably too desperate to realize that.
Meanwhile, he deleted Leah’s text messages as soon as he read them. “Just ignore her. She’s probably desperate and wants to talk about some sob stories of hers to gain more sympathy.”
Cindy felt like laughing as she kept her phone away. “I can’t believe I was curious about what she wanted to say.”
Nevertheless, Ian wasn’t intrigued as he could already figure out what Leah was up to.
As of now, Leah’s mind was completely occupied by the will and that was probably the only thing she could talk about.
As of now, Leah’s mind was completely occupied by the will and that was probably the only thing she could talk about.
He kept quiet after they placed the order for their food. As soon as the food was served, they started to dig in.
On the other hand, when Leah didn’t receive Cindy’s reply, she could already guess that she had been ignored by Cindy and cursed in anger as she sat on her bed.
Sally and Simon were also standing quietly next to Leah. It seemed like Sally was in a daze while Simon had an impatient look.
Maybe it was because Leah had pulled her lips when she cursed because her facial muscles were in pain when she took a cold breath. Then, she gently pressed her face.
She initially thought that she could easily subdue Aurora if they fought, so she didn’t worry much and went alone.
However, Leah didn’t expect Aurora to be strong and aggressive. An elbow hit from Aurora was enough to knock Leah down to the ground.
She had completely underestimated Aurora and regretted her choice of going alone.
If it weren’t so, she wouldn’t have been beaten up this badly.
Leah had applied makeup when she went out to meet Sean and the others, but her face was numb and she felt really uncomfortable, so she went to the washroom to wash her face and remove her makeup.
After removing her makeup, the unsightly look of her face was revealed.
