Chapter 1866

That person chuckled. "Just wait for my good news."

Word by word, the insults reached her ears. Aurora, who was always arrogant and domineering, fled upon hearing those gossip about her in the private room that day.

She no longer attended those social gatherings or afternoon tears where socialites would flaunt their wealth. Instead, she spent time with Cordelia, listening every day to stories of Keegan's childhood. People could be strange sometimes. They could hate each other to the bones when arguing, but once things calmed down, all the feelings would subside. When she heard about those stories about Keegan, she could not help but think to herself. 'How did I and Keegan end up like this?

'Is it purely because of Stella?'

She still remembered the day when Keegan got her locked up. She scolded Keegan for being blind and bewitched by Stella, who enticed him to turn his back on her.

At that time, Keegan looked at her with an extremely disappointed look and asked her, "You used to feel sorry for even a beggar on the street. Why have you become like this? Aurora Kane, what happened to you?"

His words felt like a dagger, stabbing right through her heart. However, she was too stubborn to admit her mistake. She believed that Keegan would one day see through Stella's true colors. When that happened, Keegan would regret the decision to kick Dahlia out of the family.

However, Keegan never regretted anything. When Stella jumped right into the river without any hesitation to save Keegan, she suddenly realized that she had been wrong all this while.

That was also the day when she and Aldor stopped picking on each other.

After what happened to Keegan, Aldor led the team and dealt with Chandler. She watched everyone bustling about and felt useless for not being able to do anything to help.

Aurora's arrogance had slowly diminished, replaced by introspection and growth. She started taking her tasks seriously, realizing the value in Aldor's harsh feedback. It was only then she understood why Keegan had Aldor supervise her.

As the heiress of the Kane family, she was always treated with deference, her mistakes often overlooked. But Aldor was different - he answered only to Keegan, and from him, she learned practical, valuable lessons.

Her animosity toward Aldor had faded. Her question to Sylvia had been out of genuine curiosity, not malice.

Growing up in affluent circles, she was used to seeing well-preserved, elegant women in their fifties and sixties. Sylvia, with her visible aging, seemed much older to Aurora. Her straightforward nature often led her to ask questions without much thought, unaware of their potential hurtfulness.

Aldor's pointed response took Aurora by surprise. Once she realized the sarcasm, her expression soured.

Sylvia, worried about Aldor offending his boss, slapped him, chastising, "Aurora was just curious. It's normal to think I look older with so much gray hair at fifty."
