Chapter 430

Melissa was fuming, wishing her piercing gaze could literally strike down Aurelia on the spot..

She had finally managed to push Aurelia out of the Stirling family, only to find her latching onto Elvis,

The nerve of this gold—-digger!

As soon as Aurelia, Elvis, and Jelena sat down, Melissa stormed over, seething with anger.

"Elvis, are you seriously messing with this gold-digger?”

Elvis felt a headache coming on. “Watch your mouth.”

Melissa scoffed, “You're not exactly Mr. Clean yourself. You're actually picking up my brothers’ ex— lover, a gold—digger I kicked to the curb. Have you lost your mind?”

Aurelia remained calm, refusing to get angry despite Melissa's insults.

Jelena, however, was not so patient. She slammed her hand on the table, standing up, “Jealousy does make one ugly, and you're proof of that. You're just upset that Mr. Cooper isn't interested in you. Do you really need to throw such a tantrum? You claim to be so refined, yet here you are, hurling insults like a fishwife. You're really tarnishing your high-society image.”

Melissa's mouth twisted in anger, “I'm just stating the facts. She's a junk, and only a fool would clean up after her.”

No amount of dirt she could throw at Aurelia would be enough to satisfy her. She'd love to disfigure Aurelia's seductive face to see how she could lure men any more.

Elvis was raised in open mind and would not let such things bother him. Melissa's outbursts were nothing new to him.

He could tolerate Melissa's rude behaviors to him, but he would not allow her to insult the woman he loved.

"Melissa, have you heard of the saying “The rose among the thorns“? Aurelia is the rose, and you're just a thorn. If your brothers truly decided to move on, I would be relieved.”

Melissa looked about ready to explode, “You're blind, and you'll regret this. You'll regret it so much.”

If he thought he could marry anyone else, he was mistaken. Whoever he chose to marry, she'd ensure they met a nasty end

Every time a rumor about Elvis surfaced, she'd storm over to the Coopers in a rage.

The Coopers were also keen on a marriage alliance with the Stirlings to get more help. But their son did not fancy Melissa, leaving the elders helpless

Elvis’ mother, having a open mindset, would not interfere in his marital affairs. To her, him marrying a divorced woman with a child was not a big deal. What mattered was their love for each other.

Elvis’ father had his own thoughts. Aurelia might come from humble beginnings and had been married before, but her ex-husband was Leopold, and his son was the legitimate heir to the Stirling family. In a way, this was an indirect alliance with the Stirlings.

Moreover, Aurelia was competent and a capable. Marrying her would surely help Ethereal Gems outshine Astral Enterprises eventually.

Thus, Elvis’ parents let him be, leaving him to handle his affairs

This attitude infuriated Melissa.

In her mind, Aurelia was just a parasite, sucking the life out of these wealthy families. She was driven out of the Stirling family only to latch onto the Coopers. Even if she were to divorce again, she'd still walk away with a significant share of their wealth.

Aurelia, however, cared little for such wealth. As one of the hottest jewelry designers in the industry, she earned a handsome salary.

She wanted the money to increase her power, to protect her children better. After all, this was a world driven by material desires, where money could move mountains.

As soon as Melissa left, the air seemed fresher.

Elvis looked at Aurelia, comforting, “Don’t mind Melissa, she’s just a lunatic. Ignore whatever she says.”

Aurelia smiled faintly, “I don’t care. No matter how much she yells, she's not getting the upper hand.”

Jelena snorted, “I'm just worried she won't stop at words. She might resort to dirty tricks to harm you. She's hell-bent on clinging to Mr. Cooper. I bet she’s targeted every single one of his girlfriends. If we can't shake her off, she’s going to be a constant pain.”
