Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 778

Chapter 778

“Now that I’m awake, why do you look anything but happy for me clear sister?”

Tessa didn’t even know how to respond.

“1… I have something to take care of.”

She thought of Julian and quickly grabbed the excuse.

“You saw it yourself–he was taken away by your man, wasn’t he? No matter what he did wrong, he’s still my fiancé.”

She gave a half–hearted chuckle. “I should go check on him.”

Aurora cut in, her voice calm but sharp. “So, you’re admitting then that whatever Julian did has something to do with you too, right?”

Tessa froze in place.

She met Aurora’s eyes, and the mocking smile on her face made her grind her teeth.

This was exactly the kind of person Aurora was, always appearing soft and gentle on the outside.

But with that same face, she could grind someone into the dirt so thoroughly they’d never get up again.

And it was that prideful air that Tessa hated the most.

That was why she’d always wanted to rip off Aurora’s fake mask and stomp it into the ground.

Only then would people finally see through that holier–than–thou act.

Instead of being fooled by it like they were now.

Aurora had clearly baited her, and with so many people still in the room, there was no way Tessa could walk away clean.

Her face darkened, and she was forced to admit it.

“Yeah, that’s what I meant. But I…”

Before she could finish, Aurora interrupted.

“It’s fine. As long as everyone gets the message, that’s enough.‘

Aurora smiled. “I just hope you won’t regret what you said later.”

Seeing her like that made Tessa feel a heavy weight pressing down on her chest.

There was a vague sense of unease she couldn’t quite place.

But now that Aurora was awake, all she could do was take things one step at a

time.

What came next was out of her hands and certainly beyond her control.

On top of that, she never could read Aurora, let alone predict what she might do.

So, her best bet for now was to stay still and ride out the storm.

Tessa swallowed hard and asked awkwardly, “So what exactly do you mean by that?”

“Nothing much.”

Aurora smiled and turned to Lucas. “Alright, Lukey, take my dear sister to the testing center too.”

Tessa’s eyes widened in shock.
