“You!” Melanie exclaimed, rising to her feet in anger.
How had she not noticed before that Aurelia was so eloquent?

Originally, Luna was pretending to be sick, but her face still had some rosy color. However, after hearing Aurelia’s words, her complexion turned rather unsightly.
“Enough! Such unfilial behavior! Do you even know what you’re saying?” Gideon rebuked angrily.
“Mother was ill, and not only did you show no concern, but you even spoke so harshly. Who on earth taught you to behave like this?” Benjamin asked in

Aurelia’s gaze swept over the Leedon family’s men before finally resting on Luna. Her eyes were cold, devoid of any emotion. “I thought you called me b and decided to let me inherit the family fortune.”
Also, the Leedon family was suppressed by Quigley Group. Wouldn’t it be long before the size of their company would gradually diminish?
She really didn’t value such a small amount of property.
Luna was so eager to speak that before she could utter a single word, she choked on her own saliva due to her haste, leading to a fit of coughing.
“Mother.” Melanie hurriedly went to pat Luna’s back gently.
“You have no right to covet the Leedon family’s fortune,” Spencer said through gritted teeth.
Their family fortune, a portion of which belonged to Melanie, none was allocated to Aurelia.
Although Gideon was quite upset, he still managed to keep his composure. “Spencer, stop talking.”
Aurelia slowly lifted the corners of her lips, looking at the people before her. She no longer harbored any feelings for that family. They were simply not wo

“I am your second brother. I have the right to know who you associate with,” Benjamin asserted with an elder brother’s authority.
If that had happened at the company, whenever Benjamin lost his temper, the employees would

However, Aurelia raised an eyebrow, “When the Leedon family was busy trying to ruin me by buying trending searches a few days ago, where were you?
Benjamin’s face turned ashen. “Do you even understand what you’re saying? If you had just apologized sincerely today, we could have put all your past to please us when you just returned home. Do you now want to throw all your previous efforts away?”
“Enough, Benjamin. You should also hold your tongue. After reprimanding Benjamin, Gideon said to Aurelia, “There were misunderstandings between us
Since the hard approach didn’t work, he was planning to try the soft one.
“Auri, come here. Let me take a look at you. You’ve only been away from home for just over a month. How have you lost so much weight? Are you havin
If it had been in the past, Aurelia would have believed it.
In the past, in order to make her endure the discomfort and go to the hospital for a blood draw, the pretense Luna put on in front of her was even more g Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Aurelia stood motionlessly in front of the door as a WhatsApp message from Gordon popped up on her phone.
Gordon had taken photos of a few items his parents had collected at home, hoping she could help take a
look.
As she examined the photo, she casually remarked, “No need for games or tricks in front of me. I’ve seen them all, and they’re almost all the same. Just tell me what you want to do.”
Indeed, the items that Gordon had helped his parents with were all good things.
It was their Zeller family’s heirloom.
Gordon: My mother told me to wear this bracelet, claiming it would help her hold her grandchild sooner. Isn’t that belief a bit mystical? I’m waiting for you
A lengthy message came from Gordon. It was evident that Gordon was often pressured to marry for
various reasons.
Aurelia was amused and laughed. Then she magnified a bracelet to take a closer look.
It was a bracelet that the ancestors of the Zeller family had blessed. Indeed, wearing it was believed to bring about abundant blessingy and offspring.
She tapped on the screen of her phone. It’s not superstitious. It could indeed help your mother to get a grandchild sooner. There are no other issues. Co

Matthew merely glanced at the phone handed over by Gordon.
In the chat interface between Aurelia and Gordon, she responded to Gordon more frequently than he did

He looked intently at Gordon. “Do you often chat with her privately?”
“Not often. We only chatted a few times.” Gordon was preoccupied with the thought of whether the bracelet could bless him with many children. He thoug

Originally, he was lost in thought, but inadvertently, a voice message popped out.
After responding to Gordon, Aurelia lifted her head to look at Gideon, who wore a face of disappointment.

With tears in her eyes, Luna said, “I am your mother. You are the child I
