“Besides, she’s your mother and my mother–in–law. Even if I say a few things, that’s only natural.
“Since we chose to be husband and wife, we face every challenge together, not one of us dodging while the other shoulders it alone.”
Hearing those words, Aurora was deeply moved.
She realized her thinking had been too narrow before.
Marriage meant she wasn’t alone anymore. She had someone she could lean on.
Sometimes she could let herself hand over her burdens to the one she trusted, instead of carrying them all on
her own.
“Then just pretend I never said anything.” Aurora gave him a playful wink.
Lucas responded with a knowing smile.
Seeing her so lively and natural warmed his heart.
He hoped he could always protect that smile rather than watch her return to the shadowed, icy look she wore in front of Grace.
Aurora wasn’t shaken by the confrontation. Instead, she returned to work as usual.
Daniel’s project was no small task. In the early stages, they even had to go on–site to gather real data.
While Aurora was buried under deadlines, news spread through the business world that she had secured Daniel’s project.
Everyone knew how difficult he was to deal with.
Polished though he might be in social settings, his way of doing business was fixed–if he didn’t like something, no one could force his hand.
And with the powerful backing behind him, few dared to try.
So, when Aurora’s small, newly opened studio managed to land his project so quickly, it stirred no small amount of curiosity.
Many also saw an opportunity–partnering with Aurora might mean gaining a link to Daniel.
And with him, there was no shortage of projects to go around.
After all, even the scraps Daniel let slip through his fingers could keep people busy for a year or more.
His tastes might have been unusual, but his reputation in the industry was beyond dispute.
Even his eccentricities were something most chose to turn a blind eye to.

After all, they were his business, not theirs.

What truly caught people’s attention was Aurora. Daniel had worked with countless partners, but never someone so young who managed to seal a deal with him so quickly. She was the first.
That was why the business world was buzzing with curiosity about her.
One architecture program, Ground Level Spaces, reached out to invite Aurora onto the show.
Their reasoning was solid–it would boost her studio’s visibility.
And since the program was focused on architecture, with major designers and even celebrities often appearing, it was a perfect stage.
After weighing the exposure it would bring, Aurora decided to accept.
When Megan heard the news, she was over the moon, clapping and spinning in excitement.
“Aurora, I can’t believe a production team actually invited us! This is happening so fast–I’m not even ready!”
It might have been Aurora appearing on the show, but Megan looked as if she had just won the lottery, twirling around in delight.
Aurora couldn’t help laughing. “I’m the one going on the program. Why are you the one so excited?”
