Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 1646

Aurora almost laughed at that.

“Why bring Lucas into this? Isn’t this between you and me?”

Why did she have to drag him into every conversation? It was obvious she was using his name as a shield.

Aurora saw right through her.

Before Yvonne could speak again, Aurora cut in, her voice calm but sharp. “If you’re so concerned about his feelings, why not talk to him directly? Why come to me in private?”

She tilted her head slightly. “Let me guess, it must be because he’s already warned you, hasn’t he?”

Yvonne froze, instinctively taking a step back.

The faint, knowing smile in Aurora’s eyes made her chest tighten. For the first time, she realized just how dangerous this woman really was.

She’d always thought she was the one in control. After all, her family, background, and years of working alongside Lucas were nothing Aurora could ever match.

She’d always assumed she was the one who truly understood him and the one who mattered.

To her, Aurora was just another pretty face—someone men showed off, not someone who could hold her own next to a man like Lucas.

That was why she’d never taken her seriously.

But now, standing here, Yvonne saw how wrong she’d been.

Aurora wasn’t simple at all.

But her eyes darted, betraying her guilt.

Aurora let out a low, amused laugh.

“You really think people are that stupid, don’t you?”

“You—”

Aurora took a slow step forward, her confidence radiating with every movement. She knew exactly where she stood.

Lucas was on her side and that certainty gave her all the strength she needed.

After all, having someone like him behind her meant she had nothing to fear.
