With Hayden now on the hook, Aurora continued, "Actually, a lot happened that night, and as a result, I was unable to stay in Clothville. At that time, what you did left me with no one to rely on, so I had no choice but to go to the United States."


    "Aurora, I know I wronged you. What exactly happened that night?" Hayden was eager to know the truth.


    "I can''t exin it all in a short time. Anyway, I didn''t tell anyone about my return this time. I dare not reveal my tracks. Otherwise, Genevieve wille after me. Can you keep it a secret for me? Don''t tell anyone!"


    If Aurora had been a fairy of the night just before, at this moment, she had turned into


    a pitiful little bunny. Hayden couldn''t resist her allure, nor her pitiful and aggrieved appearance.


    "I knew someone was behind all this. Aurora, don''t be afraid. I will protect you from now on. If your father doesn''t care for you, I will," Hayden dered as he embraced her.


    If he had said such things to himself in the past, Aurora would have felt her life wasplete. But at her most miserable time, he had been with Susan. The woman in his arms now smirked coldly.


    "Thank you, Hayden..." With just that word, Hayden felt his body soften. This woman seemed to possess some magic, her hand resting on his waist. Knowing she had juste back, he should have made up for his past mistakes and left a good impression. Yet, his heart mored for her.


    He rolled over on top of her. "Aurora, you have suffered these years." His hand caressed her fair cheek. Aurora seemed moved too, her fingers slowly moving to his suit jacket. Her action spurred Hayden on without a thought.


    His Adam''s apple bobbed. "May I?" He looked at her earnestly. However, as she saw his expression, Aurora''s mind suddenly shed with Julian''s domineering face. Damn it. Why did she think of him now?


    Her fingers moved towards his shirt buttons. His suit and shirt were soon tossed to the floor. As Hayden''s trembling hands were about to touch her skin, the sound of high heels echoed from outside. Aurora smirked, pulling Hayden down.


    "Hayden, you''re really here!" Susan rushed in, and upon entering, she saw a pair of figures embraced under the canopy, the woman''s fair long legs and high heels prominent. Hayden hovered above Aurora, with shirts and suits scattered around on the floor. Seeing this romantic scene, who wouldn''t think otherwise?


    "Hayden, don''t let her know it''s me," Aurora whispered in Hayden''s arms, her pitiful appearance very endearing. Hayden recalled her earlier words and guessed that she had severe conflicts with the Montgomery family. She was now hiding from her family members. If Susan knew she was back, she would definitely leak this news to the Montgomery family.


    "Don''t worry," Hayden assured her as he wrapped the nket around her. After doing all this, he stood up, methodically picked up the shirt from the floor, and got dressed, saying indifferently, "What are you doing here?"


    His expression, aside from disgust, showed no guilt, perhaps because his current affair was with Aurora, a woman he truly loved. Given what Susan had done to him in the past, he had felt some disgust. Now that Aurora was back, she was the real woman in his heart, so he faced Susan without a shred of guilt.


    Susan, seeing that he even refused to offer an exnation, eximed, "What am I doing here? Hayden, I''m your fiancée! Who is she?"


    She pointed at the woman on the bed, and Hayden actually covered her body to protect her. If he were justcking a woman for fun, she would not have been so angry. She knew that these businessmen only sought novelty, and when it wore off, they would eventuallye home. What really scared her was that Hayden would be smitten with the object for his amusement. And it was precisely when they were about to get engaged. What would happen if the media caught him again? She would definitely be aughingstock!


    Over these three years, whenever she had the chance, Susan would seize the opportunity to show off her happiness. She wanted everyone to witness her joy. But now, she was truly panicked. She feared Hayden had fallen for someone else, as he had been acting weirdtely.


    "You don''t need to know who she is. If there''s nothing else, you can leave." Hayden thought only of Aurora''s pitiful state. She must be in pain right now. She used to be his legitimate girlfriend. But now, she had to hide under the duvet, being treated as the other woman. Aurora must be heartbroken.


    "I want to see who this bitch is. How dare she seduce my fiance! I won''t leave today without breaking her legs." Susan was on the brink of exploding. She rushed towards Aurora, wanting to pull back the nket to see her face.


    Hayden stood in front of her, blocking her movement. "Have you had enough, Susan? You know I never loved you. Getting engaged to you was just to make up for what happened back then. Don''t actually think I liked you."


    He wouldn''t let her near Aurora. He remembered that three years ago, because of Susan, he had lost Aurora once. This time, he didn''t want to lose her again.


    "Hayden, how can you treat me this way? I am your fiancée!" Susan''s eyes reddened as she questioned him. This was the man she had loved for three years, but his words were heartbreaking to anyone who heard them.

    Over these three years, Susan had given so much for him, painstakingly managing their rtionship for three years! For his sake, she deliberately changed her preferences to match his. She always considered him, but in the end, he said such hurtful things to her.


    "Yes! You''re only my fiancée, and we aren''t married. I won''t be your husband, and you will never be my wife," said Hayden with cold indifference.


    Aurora, deep under the nket, heard Hayden''s icy words, and she wasn''t at all pleased. She now knew that he was also a heartless man, his words sharp as des. If he could treat Susan this way, he might do the same to her in the future. So why should she mock Susan now?


    After all, love-struck women are pitiful. She silently admonished herself, vowing never to fall in love so easily again!


    "You are about to be engaged to me. I will soon be Mrs. Alvarez. Hayden, nothing is going to change, okay?" Susan wiped her tears, took Hayden''s hand, and pleaded in a low voice, "Come home with me. I''ll pretend today never happened. You''re still my beloved fiance. Let''s put this behind us. I can''t live without you."


    Hayden looked at this emotionally unstable woman, remembering how three years ago, she had also yed the victim to soften his heart, which had made him take responsibility for that night, causing him to lose Aurora for three years.


    Now, there was not a hint of pity in his eyes as he shook off her hand. "Let go. I''m noting back tonight. You go back by yourself." That night three years ago, he had given up Aurora, leading to their separation for three years. Tonight, he absolutely would not give her up!
