Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 693

It was nothing like Tessa’s perfectly braided pigtails.

Grace had always been good with her hands, and with little girls already being naturally cute, those braids looked especially lovely on Tessa’s delicate face.

That was exactly why Aurora had come up with the idea of cooking meal for Grace and William.

Maybe then they’d like her more.

She pressed her tiny lips together and climbed up onto the chair.

As expected, she ended up getting splashed by hot oil.

She let out a sharp scream, but it wasn’t until a while later that Grace and Tessa wandered in.

Grace’s voice carried an edge of impatience. “You little rascal, what are you doing in here? This is a kitchen. Who said you could come in here?”

Before she could finish, her eyes landed on Aurora curled up on the floor, clutching her arm in pain, her face twisted in agony.

Grace’s heart wavered for a moment.

Watching from outside the scene, Aurora felt a pang shoot through her chest.

So that was how she got the scar on her right arm.

No wonder Grace never spoke about it.

And whenever Aurora brought it up, she always responded with irritation.

“I told you–that’s just a scar from when you were being naughty as a kid. Why won’t you believe me?”

That had been Grace’s tone, even back then.

She brushed it off lightly, almost as if the scar really had been Aurora’s fault.

If she hadn’t been so mischievous, trying to cook on her own, how would all that trouble have followed?

Grace saw it all clearly.

It wasn’t until she stepped into the kitchen that she seemed to remember she had another daughter.

And when she finally saw Aurora’s injury, there was a flicker of distress in her expression.

After all, this was still her child.

How could she not feel even a little pain?

Seeing how much pain the little girl was in, she did feel a trace of sympathy, but like always, it vanished in an instant.

Watching from outside the memory, Aurora was already sobbing silently.
