Lahat ng Kabanata ng Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO: Kabanata 431 - Kabanata 440

"Got it, Mom. I’ll head back now. If anything comes up, just give me a call."Grace flashed her a quick "OK" gesture, then quietly watched the two of them leave the room.Only after they’d completely disappeared from sight did she turn back to stare blankly at the bowl in front of her.She hadn’t missed the awkwardness on Aurora’s face earlier—truth be told, she just didn’t want to confront it.But she genuinely didn’t want her two daughters turning against each other. And at this point, she didn’t even know how to fix it.The thought alone gave her a headache.Both daughters were really reflections of herself.They were stubborn and proud.Neither of them was willing to back down. Otherwise, this whole situation could’ve been resolved so easily.All it would take was for one of them to lower her head and admit fault, and the rest would fall into place.Grace sighed heavily.When her assistant walked in, he caught the sound of that sigh and immediately picked up on her mood.As her ex

"I heard everything, you know," Lucas said with a grin. "You said being with me makes you feel content."Aurora rolled her eyes. "So, you heard that, huh?"Lucas smiled and slipped an arm around her. "Not only did I hear it, but you can be sure I’ll live up to it."We’re not just spending a day or two together—we’re spending a lifetime. So, if I mess up along the way, I hope you will be generous enough to forgive me."Aurora let out a soft laugh. "Got it, Mr. Carter."The two of them looked like a couple freshly in love—warmth and sweetness surrounded them, creating a bubble no one else could step into.As they stepped inside, a savory aroma hit them.Aurora turned to Lucas, her expression puzzled, silently asking what was going on.Lucas shook his head, just as confused."Don’t look at me. I didn’t ask anyone to cook."They walked into the kitchen and found dishes neatly arranged on the table, along with a folded note.Aurora picked it up and read it. The handwriting was neat and gra

"You'd better not come to me for anything ever again. Don't worry, I won't give a damn whether you live or die."Kenneth stared at the shattered pieces of his phone on the floor, his chest heaving with frustration. He couldn’t understand it. Wendy hadn’t been like this before. Why did it feel like she’d grown bolder ever since returning to Ravenshore?He composed himself before letting his assistant in to deliver a new phone."Clean up that mess too," he ordered.The assistant glanced at the scattered fragments, not daring to say a word. He knew all too well what kind of temper his boss had.Outsiders thought Kenneth was easygoing—a gentleman with a smile. In truth, he was far from it. His temper was notoriously bad. He often slammed tables, kicked doors and smashing phones.That was practically routine.This was the fourth phone the assistant had cleaned up this month. And it was only the fifth day.Meanwhile in Ravenshore, Wendy finally exhaled in relief when her phone stopped

“I’m not going over there alone, not with your sister around.”Aurora glanced at the message and simply replied with an “OK” gesture, saying nothing more.She understood and knew exactly what kind of person Tessa was. Tessa and Megan had never gotten along, probably because Megan had always been especially close to her.Aurora still remembered it vividly. When they were little, Megan used to come over to her house to play. The two of them would lie by the pool, sunbathing, and it was well known to both families how close the girls were.But Tessa had always kept her distance. She never joined in, and whenever she looked at Megan, there was visible disdain on her face.One time, while Aurora and Megan were sunbathing by the pool, Tessa suddenly approached them with a warm smile, saying she wanted to join. Megan, still young, wasn’t too keen, but out of respect for Aurora, she nodded and let her join in.The three of them sat poolside, but as they jostled for the middle spot, Tessa

She tiptoed to the doorway of Aurora and Lucas’ bedroom. The sound of running water drifted out, and a smile slowly stretched across her face.Perfect. That meant Aurora was in the shower, which also meant Lucas was in the kitchen alone.At that thought, Wendy couldn’t hold back her grin. Sure enough, when she stepped into the kitchen, her guess was spot on. Lucas stood there by himself, tidying up.Wendy clenched her fists.That wretched woman, Aurora.After eating and drinking her fill, she had Lucas working like a servant while she lounged in the bathroom, doing absolutely nothing.The injustice of it all made Wendy bristle.If she were the one with Lucas, she’d never let him lift a finger, let alone do chores. She’d never let him be treated this way.Those hands of his were meant for signing multi-million-dollar deals, not scrubbing plates.With a man like Lucas, she wouldn’t need to lift a single finger for the rest of her life; she’d be wrapped in luxury.Her gaze shifted to
