“I’ve just worked with Aurora for a long time. We know each other well. Do you have to control even this?”
Leonard showed no sign of backing down.
The two of them were at each other’s throats, sharp against sharp.
Caught in the middle, Aurora couldn’t help but feel a headache coming on. “Alright, we came here to eat
and relax. No need to be so tense.”
Megan placed a piece of fish onto Leonard’s plate. “You should eat some meat instead. Don’t overthink things, just get more nutrition.”
Seeing that, Aurora also picked up some greens and placed them on Lucas‘ plate. “Eat some vegetables
and cool your temper. We just need to live our life well. Why get hung up on so much?”
Lucas nodded in understanding.
But staring at the pile of green vegetables on his plate, he couldn’t help but find it ridiculous.
This fool–did she even realize what that gesture meant?
Truly reckless.
The rest of the meal turned out more pleasant.
Aurora and Megan never stopped chatting.
Aurora was full of ideas, already with a clear plan for her future.
She turned to Megan. “Why don’t you join me, come open the studio with me?”
“Of course, no problem.” Megan chuckled awkwardly, scratching her head. “As long as you don’t think I’ll
hold you back.”
“How could that be?”
Aurora looped her arm through Megan’s with a look of reliance. “We’ve known each other so long. I know
exactly what role suits you. Don’t worry, I’ll take charge of the direction and planning.”
Hearing that, Megan finally let out a breath of relief.
“That’s good. I’m the worst at planning tasks like that. I’m more of a ‘sailor‘ type–you point, and I’ll go.”
She patted her chest proudly,
She knew herself very well. She didn’t have many skills, but she excelled in being obedient.

Aurora knew this too, which was exactly why she chose Megan.
Lucas also voiced his quiet support. “Aurora, whatever you want to do, go ahead and do it without worry. I’ll always be here to support you.”
Aurora had already made up her mind, but hearing Lucas‘ words made her feel even more at ease.
“Alright, don’t worry. I’ll definitely take good care of myself.” Aurora patted his shoulder, reassuring him.
Leonard watched the small gestures between them, his gaze darkening.
Under the table, his fingers tightened slightly.
Compared to before, he could now face their closeness with more composure.
The next day, Walton Corporation held a shareholders‘ meeting.
Aurora arrived in formal attire.
She came this time for one reason–to resign.
Her resignation letter was already written, in duplicate.
She carried one copy, while the other had been placed on Grace’s desk early in the morning.
The other shareholders glanced at Aurora in her seat, whispering among themselves.
Didn’t she say yesterday she was going to resign?
After making such a scene at the banquet, why was she still showing up here now?
Aurora paid no attention to the stares around her.
She came today precisely to cut herself off from all this, to no longer take part in it.
Now, it was time to put an end to everything.
She sat tall and straight, her bearing naturally commanding.
The purpose of this shareholders‘ meeting was clear to everyone.
But as the major shareholders looked at Aurora’s calm and distant demeanor, the excuses they had prepared suddenly stuck in their throats.
