Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been overthinking it like this.
Lucas couldn’t help but laugh and pulled Aurora into his arms.

He lowered his voice beside her ear and said, “Aurora, you don’t need to think so much. To me, you’re already the best. I love everything about you, not just the parts you show me.
“Whether it’s the good or the bad–I love it all. As long as it’s you, that’s enough.”
Aurora froze at his words.
She hadn’t expected that someone would actually care about her worries.
That someone would notice her subtle emotions and accept and understand all of her.
She stepped forward and threw herself into Lucas arms.
Leaning against his chest, she felt completely safe and at ease.
She whispered, “Thank you, Lucas.
“Thank you for understanding and accepting me. I’ll stay by your side from now on. As long as you don’t leave, I won’t either.”
Aurora truly cherished everything she had now and was grateful that fate hadn’t let her down
After all the detours, everyone by her side was exactly who she needed.
No one had left her.
At this moment, she felt fulfilled in life.
But she also knew she had to work even harder to keep it all.
Otherwise, Joseph would be the perfect warning.
If she couldn’t even protect her company, how could she protect the person she loved?
Lucas rested his chin lightly on top of her head as the two of them held each other tightly.
In that moment, happiness belonged to them.
As the saying goes, “Peace and quiet don’t come without a price–someone else is always carrying the burden so you don’t have to.”
Meanwhile, Desmond still had to send someone to the hospital, take care of the restaurant’s security footage,
And negotiate damages for the broken private room.

Although Lucas‘ businesses spanned many regions, unfortunately, this restaurant wasn’t one of them.
So, Desmond still had to speak with the manager assess the damages, and arrange for compensation.
As for Joseph, the moment he regained consciousness in the hospital, he started making a
scene.
Everything that happened before he passed out came flooding back.
It was the greatest humiliation he had ever experienced.
He was the heir of Hunt Enterprises, the only heir in the family–when had he ever been treated like this?
Joseph was unwilling to accept it.
A whole month’s worth of effort now seemed completely wasted.
Aurora really wasn’t easy to deal with.
But still, he couldn’t just swallow this and walk away.
What she did this time was even worse than sending him to prison.
At least that hadn’t been a personal attack.
But now, this was far beyond the line.
The nurse heard the commotion and quickly ran in. “Sir, please don’t get too worked up.
“You’ve just been put on an IV. Agitation might cause backflow and interfere with your healing.”
Joseph quieted down immediately.
Aurora had hit him hard in the head–he didn’t even know how bad it was.
He quickly asked, “Miss, is my head okay?”
The nurse looked at him, hesitating for a moment, clearly unsure how to say it.
Joseph grew impatient and shouted, “What’s going on? Just say it!”
“A mild concussion. So, I suggest you take care of yourself and stop stressing.
“The body only recovers gradually, day by day.”
The nurse tried to advise him kindly, but Joseph had already stopped listening.
