Chapter 1456 

Tessa pretended to think for a moment. “She’s still my sister after all. We share the same mother. You just need to teach her a small lesson. 

“I heard she’s going to appear on a reality show soon. Maybe make the audience see her differently. That should be enough.” 

She said it with a soft hum, as if it had slipped out casually. 

Aaron raised his brows, a little surprised. He hadn’t expected Tessa to think that way. 

Until now, he’d always seen her as a harmless, delicate woman. But clearly, she wasn’t as simple as he’d imagined. 

Thinking about it again, he found that he liked it. People who were too innocent were easily bullied. 

Only by growing sharper and stronger could one survive and stand firm in this world. Being easily manipulated was never a good thing. 

Aaron smiled. “Tessa, sometimes I think you can be quite wicked.” 

Her heart skipped a beat. 

Had her words been too obvious? Did he already see through her? That wasn’t good–she hadn’t used him enough yet. It was too soon for him to see her true side. She needed more time to make full use of him. 

“Are you misunderstanding me?” she said awkwardly, forcing a shy tone. “I only meant for you to teach my sister a lesson, that’s all.” 

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she learns one,” Aaron murmured, leaning close to her ear. “But right now, what I want is for you to focus all your attention on me.” 

“Of course, that’s no problem at all,” Tessa replied with a faint smile, her heart filling with satisfaction. 

She began to please him with even more effort, and Aaron was completely satisfied–both body and mind. 

Tessa wasn’t just beautiful; her every move seemed to fit perfectly with what he liked. A woman like her had to be kept firmly in his grasp. 

Dealing with a naïve little girl like her sister was nothing. 

All it would take was manipulating public opinion–let the viewers turn against her on that show, and she’d be disgraced online. 

The thought made him scoff. 

Honestly, Tessa could have given him something more challenging. This kind of small stunt was easy for him. As a member of the Carter family’s extended branch, he had enough influence to handle such things effortlessly. 

Of course, Tessa knew exactly what he was capable of–that was why she went to such lengths to please him. 

The next morning, Aurora received notice that she would be joining the show’s recording later that week. 

At the same time, the director announced the lineup publicly, releasing an official poster online. The show was mainly an educational program. 

His goal in inviting Aurora was to help the audience appreciate the beauty of architecture. 

Too many people overlooked its importance, and this show aimed to raise awareness. 

More than that, it sought to inspire children to take part in design themselves, helping them realize that architecture was a vital and creative field.
