Aurelia received a call from Hadrian Turner, telling her about Clara Philips and her daughter’s fate.
She was surprised, but it was within expectations.
After everything that blew up at the engagent party, no man could tolerate his own wife doing sothing like that.
Besides, she was sure Jovana Shaw wouldn’t be able to hide her vicious nature after marriage.
The drugs were just a catalyst.
She just hadn’t expected Leo Campbell to do it this ruthlessly.
He had soone film a sex video of Jovana Shaw committing adultery, started a live-stread press conference, played the video in the livestream, and publicly announced he was filing for divorce.
Afterwards, a large amount of evidence of Jovana Shaw’s drug use was leaked online, and the next day, Jovana Shaw was taken away by the police.
First he destroyed what’s most important to a woman—her chastity; then he destroyed her reputation.
Jovana Shaw was completely finished.
This move of Leo Campbell’s was utterly rciless, and vicious enough.
She really hadn’t expected it—Leo Campbell looked so gentle and refined, yet he could act this ruthlessly. She had thought the Campbell Family wouldn’t treat Jovana Shaw kindly, just hadn’t thought they’d go this far.
"But..." Hadrian Turner paused, then his voice ca through again, "after the divorce between the Campbell Family and Jovana Shaw, Jovana and Clara Philips both disappeared. No one knows whether they were secretly dealt with by the Campbell Family or what."
When Hadrian Turner was talking about this, his tone was flat, like he’d long gotten used to this kind of thing.
Aurelia didn’t say much, only replied, "Don’t bother with them anymore. After the Campbell Family stirred things up like this, there’s nowhere Jovana Shaw can find a place to stay."
Clara Philips cared so much about that daughter of hers. Now, watching Jovana Shaw ruined by her own sches, she must be feeling awful inside, right?
"Aurelia..." Hadrian Turner’s voice ca again, cautious, "are you doing well in M Nation?"
The sharpness between Aurelia’s brows faded. Right now she was lying on the lounge chair on the balcony, sunlight covering her whole body, starlight seeming to dance on her eyelashes, her red lips curving into a relaxed, contented smile. "Mm, not bad."
"Th-then... that’s good. I-I... after a while, if I have ti, I-I’ll... I’ll go to M Nation to see you."
Aurelia chuckled teasingly, "Since when did you start stuttering?"
Hadrian Turner pressed his lips together, his face flushing bright red.
"I didn’t..." He opened his mouth, then shut it again.
Aurelia laughed out loud once, and seeing he was embarrassed, she stopped teasing him. "Okay, you can co whenever you want. When you do, I’ll definitely treat you properly, great benefactor."
Hadrian Turner’s face turned red again.
Sothing occurred to him. "Oh right, I heard Young Master Night went to M Nation."
Aurelia froze, doubt stirring in her heart. Mason Nightshade’s movents were supposed to be confidential—how did Hadrian Turner know?
Aurelia didn’t dwell on it. She barely knew Hadrian Turner that well to begin with. Everyone having their own secrets was normal, and these secrets didn’t affect how she got along with him.
It was just that...
Mason Nightshade had co to M Nation too.
For so reason, Aurelia’s heart in her chest suddenly started pounding fast.
Should she ask Mason Nightshade clearly about what happened back then?
She realized there really were too many things she didn’t know.
How did Mason Nightshade die? She had never even asked. She’d just sentenced him to death on her own, and because she was afraid, she ran away here. Wasn’t that way too unfair to Mason Nightshade? Had what she done hurt him badly?
Thinking back to Mason Nightshade’s expression at the airport, Aurelia’s heart clenched.
She picked up her phone and sent a WeChat ssage to Gustavo Yates: "Mason Nightshade ca to M Nation?"
After a while, her phone chid with a "ding."
Aurelia lowered her head to look at the reply, and the corner of her mouth twitched.
