He looked down at Aurora Cooper, reminding her, "Mia has been through too many changes; I think it’s best not to rush things."
Aurora: "..."
Is it possible not to hurry?
She was already extrely anxious.
Seeing his serious expression, Aurora had no choice but to compromise, "I understand."
Just as she finished speaking, she suddenly added, "Zuri Ginger is still at my house. After what she did to Mia, I certainly can’t tolerate it. I’ll have her leave once I return. If convenient, could you have soone pick her up?"
"Mm." Aiden Jiang nodded, "Let’s keep it that way for now."
With those words, he turned and opened the room door, stepping out.
"Chairman?"
Amy glanced at Aurora, who stood up dazedly, and asked with concern.
"I’m fine." Aurora waved her hand, looking perplexed, then stepped back to sit on the sofa.
She had left Cloud Capital twenty years ago and remained single ever since.
Of course, she had dated two boyfriends, but both relationships ended due to her career commitnts.
She no longer had any interest in n.
This is why she had a strong desire to find her biological daughter.
But who would have thought—
When she found the child, the child’s father was found alongside her.
Aiden Jiang looked young, seemingly not even fifty, exuding calmness and warmth in every gesture, speaking and acting with subtlety. Yet, just a few words from him could leave her speechless. This feeling of oppression from a man was sothing she hadn’t experienced in a long ti.
"So this is truly you, quite similar to what I imagined."
As these words suddenly resurfaced in her mind, Aurora put on her coat, maintained a stern face, and walked out the door.
——
It was eight o’clock in the evening.
She and Amy returned to Cloudy Capital.
As soon as they entered the living room, they saw Zuri Ginger sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Because the results of the second test were not yet available, Zuri had been staying here these past few days.
Looking at her side profile, Aurora was filled with anger.
Perhaps her gaze was too sharp, for Zuri quickly turned around, and upon seeing her, stood up with a smile, "Mom, you’re back."
Aurora quickly took two steps to stand in front of her, pointed sideways towards the door, and coldly said, "You have ten minutes to pack your things and leave my house."
"Mom!"
"I’m not your mom!"
Aurora’s usual elegance vanished as she sternly said, "I have absolutely nothing to do with you. You are not my daughter, and I am not your mom..."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Zuri’s bewildered face, took a deep breath, pushed the hair away from her face to behind her ear, and straightforwardly said, "You are not my daughter; Mia is my daughter. You were switched with her at the hospital back then. Most likely, you are Charlotte Chester’s biological daughter! I am fully aware of how you and your mother have treated my child. Do you plan to wait for to kick you out before you leave?"
"Charlotte Chester?" Zuri looked at her in disbelief, "How could I be Charlotte Chester’s daughter?"
"Hmph."
Aurora snorted unkindly, then turned around and said, "Old King, throw her out for ."
"Understood." The middle-aged man responded, grabbed Zuri’s wrist, and pulled her towards the door.
Zuri was so shocked.
She allowed herself to be dragged outside.
As she ca to her senses, Amy even threw her suitcase out.
Zuri stared blankly at it, gave a self-mocking smile, did not pick up the suitcase, and turned to leave.
She’s Charlotte Chester’s daughter?
She’s Charlotte Chester’s daughter!
Haha, she’s actually Charlotte Chester’s daughter!
How could it be?
How could she be Charlotte Chester’s daughter?
What kind of mother would watch her biological daughter be humiliated and do nothing about it?
Even if she had no parents, she didn’t want to beco Charlotte Chester’s daughter.
Zuri walked around disoriented, nearly losing it.
She didn’t know how long she had walked, but sohow, she ended up leaving Cloudy Capital and found herself on the highway, hailing a taxi.
"Miss, where to?"
The young taxi driver quickly glanced at her slightly protruding belly and casually asked.
Zuri didn’t lift her head and provided an address.
She suddenly missed Rowanda Peterson.
In this world, if there was one person still connected to her, it had to be Rowanda.
He had truly loved her; he was the father of the child in her belly.
She wanted to see him, not knowing why she wanted to see him or what she wanted to say if she did see him. In any case, at this mont, she wanted to see Rowanda Peterson.
One hour later—
The taxi arrived at the bottom of the residential building where Rowanda lived.
Zuri got out of the car and, from a distance, saw the light on in the bedroom window and took the elevator up.
Upon exiting the elevator at the door, just as she wanted to knock, she reached out and realized the security door wasn’t locked and opened with a push.
A pair of won’s boots were lying by the shoe rack.
Zuri stopped in her tracks.
"Rowanda..."
Was it... Grassy?
Suddenly, Zuri’s mind went blank; she stepped into the bedroom doorway, forgetting herself entirely, and the two of them hadn’t even noticed her presence.
"Rowanda?" Zuri stood at the door, called out with a cold smile.
