She had only encountered Hayden yesterday nearby and thought he might live in the vicinity, but she didn''t expect such a coincidence to ur.
"What? You live here?" Aurora noticed Susan holding a delicate gift box, seemingly fresh from moving in and about to visit the neighboring homes.
Susan had an appointment soon; she had just managed to move into her new home the previous night. Hayden disliked noise, so they didn''t have a housekeeper. Susan also wanted to spend more time with Hayden, enjoying their undisturbed world together to foster their rtionship.
Today, she was visiting their new neighbors as Hayden''s wife, but upon opening the door, she encountered a familiar face. Now that Aurora''s identity was revealed, Susan realized that the woman who had been seen with Hayden from the beginning was only Aurora.
Mrs. Hill had initially described Aurora in such poor terms that Susan had intended to inquire about the true nature of that day''s events from Mrs. Hill. However, Mrs. Hill, known for her temper, mistook Susan''s approach for confrontation andshed out verbally before Susan could understand what was happening.
At that moment, Aurora came downstairs, furious that this woman dared to appear in her world again! "Hayden isn''t here, what are you pretending for! No wonder you were there that day, you must have nned this, didn''t you?" Susan grabbed Aurora by the cor.
Aurora, still groggy from a hangover, frowned as Susan clutched her cor. How could this woman act so shamelessly? Was she about to start pulling hair next?
Although Aurora had schemed against Susan a few times, their meeting that day was idental, and even the location had been chosen by Cameron for her. How could she have known that Susan and Hayden would be there? Her revenge against them had already ended.
From the beginning, Hayden was not with Susan because he felt obligated but used her identity to secure his inheritance. Whatever Hayden''s choices might be in the future, they no longer concerned Aurora. Susan would never have the life she desired, which was perhaps the greatest punishment for her.
Whether Hayden would secure the inheritance was another matter; at least he would never have Aurora again, which was his retribution.
Aurora''s hatred for the couple had faded. She nned to once more drive Genevieve and her daughters out of the Montgomery family, giving them the retribution they deserved, and then her revenge would beplete.
At 21, Aurora was ready to start her own life. She would marry Julian and have several lovely children. She envisioned providing a happy home for her children, leaving her past as nothing more than a dream.
She had nned her future and did not want anyone disrupting it, clearly, Susan was not sopliant. "Susan, I have nothing to do with Hayden, and we ended everything three years ago. Please let go," Aurora stated coldly.

"Since you have no rtion, why were you at his ce in the middle of the night? Aurora, I underestimated you. I thought you were heartbroken and would never appear
in my world again, but now you''ve turned into such a despicable woman."
"Why, you still want to lie? You flirt with Hayden first and then his uncle; you really are despicable!" Unlike Aurora, who dressed casually, Susan was clearly dressed with care, as she had an important event to attend next.
Aurora, seeing Susan in her haute couture, spewed insults like a shrew. Her frown deepened, "Susan, you call me cheap? Who used me to get close to Hayden in high school? I thought of you as my best friend, smiling at me to my face while stabbing me in the back. If you liked Hayden, why notpete fairly? Why resort to such sneaky acts with Genevieve and Ivy to hurt me? You drugged Hayden, then lured me there to witness everything, breaking my heart and setting me up to be drugged and kidnapped. You even had men ready to ruin me, to take scandalous photos for the headlines. You took my boyfriend, and now you want my shares too. Susan, have I ever treated you poorly? Why go to such lengths to leave me with nothing?"
The pain that Susan caused that night years ago hurt Aurora the most. She had thought she was abandoned by her family, but after meeting Susan, she considered her a friend, a family member, only to realize she was the one who hurt her the most.
She had once said, "Aurora, from now on, we''re sisters, and I''ll take good care of you." What a joke. It was the woman who hurt her the most!
"I only want Hayden, I don''t care about your Montgomery family affairs; after all, we just used each other as needed," Susan said when the truth came out.
In the past, she might have pretended to be sorry, but now she wouldn''t even pretend, showing no sign of remorse from start to finish.
"Aurora, you and Hayden were over long ago, why did youe back? Why didn''t you die in America? Why did youe back to take him away from me, you wretch!"
Her emotions escted. She raised her hand to p Aurora, but this time Aurora didn''t dodge because two hands were quicker and stopped Susan''s hand. Hayden and Julian appeared at the same time, both gripping Susan''s hand painfully, "Ah... it hurts, Hayden, why are you here?"
Seeing Hayden behind her turned her pale; back then, Hayden only knew she had drugged him. He didn''t know what Aurora had suffered afterward. Just now, Aurora had revealed the truth, and Hayden''s face turned dark as if he was about to devour someone, frightening Susan.
"Hayden, what did you hear?" Susan asked cautiously.
"What do you hope I didn''t hear?" Hayden countered, his expression suggesting he had heard everything, tightening Susan''s heart.
"Please settle your family matters at home, and keep your woman in check. If she causes a scene again, I won''t just let her go that easily," Julian released Susan''s hand, pulling Aurora into his arms, his protective embrace tight around her.
