Luna was taken aback.

Melanie enjoyed the show.

Aaron furrowed his brows tightly.

Gideon nodded. “Once what’s done cannot be undone, we will force him to marry you. Then, you can set the terms for the marriage. This matter will naturally fall into place. Auri, your father has seen all the sacrifices you’ve made for this family. I promise you won’t be treated unfairly in the future. Once everything is settled. I’ll give you five hundred thousand first.”

With a mocking look in her eyes, Aurelia stared at Gideon. “Just a moment ago, you said the Leedon family couldn’t tolerate anyone playing the role of a mistress within the household. How is it that in the blink of an eye, you’ve contradicted yourselves?”

“This is different. We will do everything in our power to ensure Mr. Zeller marries you,” Gideon said, somewhat embarrassed.

“You’re not some innocent maiden. You’ve been with Curtis for seven or eight years, and you’ve long since been intimate with him. Why pretend to be pure?” Spencer completely lost his patience.

Melanie’s eyes flickered. She remembered Curtis telling her that he had never touched Aurelia because Aurelia had always insisted on waiting until marriage.

‘Spencer, shut up!” Luna hastily silenced Spencer. What kind of brother talks about their younger sister like that? Even if Auri is rebellious at the moment, refusing to follow our arrangements, it is because Auri has misunderstood us. Actually, that Mr. Zeller was really quite good.

“Auri, Mr. Zeller is a man worthy of lifelong trust. We are all considering your best interests.” Luna gently looked at Aurelia.

Aurelia looked at Luna, whose smile was as chilling as arsenic to her. “If I were you, I’d be bolder. Perhaps letting me get onto Matthew’s bed would make things easier.”

Gideon furrowed his brows. “Don’t be too greedy. Matthew is not someone you can aspire to. He didn’t even fancy Mel. How could he possibly be interested in you?”

If it weren’t for the knowledge that he couldn’t lay a hand on Matthew, he genuinely wanted to use some tactics to get Melanie into Matthew’s bed.

“Could it be that you’re getting close to Mr. Zeller for Matthew? I advise you to abandon such thoughts. You’re not worthy of Matthew. If he replaces out about any inappropriate actions you’ve taken, our Leedon family will be implicated because of you.” Benjamin exclaimed in a stern voice.

“All right, let’s leave it at that for now. Auri, you should move back in today,” Gideon said before deciding to head to the office.

The company was in a complete mess.

Benjamin nodded. “Dad, I’ll drive. Let’s go together.”

When the two of them were about to leave the bedroom, with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, Aurelia

She wished nothing more than the downfall of the Leedon family.

Since being reborn, she had been preoccupied with numerous matters and hadn’t found the time to settle scores with them.

Upon her return, she agreed to divorce Matthew, terminating their agreement ahead of schedule. She didn’t want any money. All she asked was for Matthew to suppress the Leedon family. Otherwise, she would feel she had let them down for all the plans they had made for her.

“What?” Gideon thought he had misheard.

“Stop messing around! Aren’t you satisfied with the half a million your father gave you? I can give you another half a million.” Benjamin felt that Aurelia was too greedy.

Melanie rolled her eyes secretly. “Aurelia, a million is not a small amount.”

Just then, Aaron caught sight of Melanie rolling her eyes. He had hardly ever seen Melanie’s sarcastic side, but her sarcasm was crystal clear at that moment.

“Give me a billion, and I might consider getting into Matthew’s bed to persuade him to collaborate with the Leedon family.” Aurelia put forth that proposition, extending her index finger to present them with a choice.

After all, she was different from them.

They were ruthless, but she had, to some extent, thrown them a bone to gnaw on.

“You’ve lost your mind!” Melanie abruptly stood up, her eyes nearly bursting with rage. As soon as she opened her mouth, she demanded a hundred million. She’s trying to bankrupt the Leedon family!

Gideon’s face turned ashen. “Do you even know what you’re talking about?”

“A hundred million? You really have the nerve to ask for that. Even if you were given a hundred million, could you get Matthew to spare you a glance?” Spencer was seething with anger. How did I end up with such an ignorant and naive little sister? Instead of taking the right path, she insisted on daydreaming!

“How would I know if I don’t give it a try? Transfer a hundred million to me now, and perhaps by this time tomorrow, I’ll show you a marriage certificate,” Aurelia said with a laugh.

“Stop this nonsense,” Benjamin said, taking a deep breath to maintain his patience. “If your words get out, people will think our Leedon family’s daughters are ignorant and arrogant. If one million isn’t enough, I can give you two million, but that’s all I can offer. Don’t push your luck.”

Had it not been for the unprecedented crisis the Leedon family was facing, he wouldn’t have given Aurelia even two hundred, let alone two million.

In his view, she was more adept at causing trouble than accomplishing tasks, and moreover, she was quite audacious, daring to make any demand. Knowing Gordon wasn’t enough to make him like her, she had the audacity to claim she was marrying Matthew. How shameless!

“Aurelia, Matthew is not Curtis. Just because you say you like him doesn’t mean he will like you back,” Melanie said, not bothering to hide her disdain. Aurelia must have had a hard time while she was away, right? Otherwise, how could she daydream in broad daylight? If daydreaming was of any use, I would be Mrs. Quigley by

“Liking someone and marrying them are two different things. His lack of affection for me doesn’t prevent him from marrying me,” Aurelia stated matter–of–factly.

No one believed when the truth was spoken.

Everyone in the bedroom had quieted downL

Luna initially felt a pang of guilt in her heart, but at that moment, she felt disappointed. “Stop dreaming. Our Leedon family is not in the league of Matthew.”

“Even if you could truly offer him a hundred million, Matthew would never be interested in you. Stop harboring such unwarranted hopes,” Benjamin said coldly.

“How would I know without giving it a try? One hundred million, no room for negotiation.” Aurelia lifted her eyelids, her expression unreadable.

“Impossible!” Spencer shouted in anger.

Gideon said, “Take sorge time to calm down at home.”

Benjamin said, “Spencer, you stay here and watch her. Make sure she doesn’t wander off. Let her think things through tonight.”

“Dad, Gideon, you guys go to the company first. I’ll try to persuade her,” Melanie said.

Luna also put on a stern face. “It’s just as well that you’re staying home to take care of me. My neck has been feeling a bit uncomfortable. The massage you gave me before was quite helpful. Now, how about giving me another massage?”

In fact, there were admirable aspects about Aurelia.

Previously, she had been good to her mother.

At that moment, Aaron, with somewhat reddened eyes, asked Aurelia, “Do you despise us? Is that why you don’t want to help us?”

Aurelia chuckled lightly. “Only just noticed, have you?”

Was there anything that their family had done that she could not resent?

Aaron was taken aback.

Luna was taken aback.

Luna and Benjamin furrowed their brows.

Spencer sneered, “If anyone should bear resentment, it should be us toward you. Your presence has brought disgrace upon our Leedon family. Now, we’re giving you a chance to redeem yourself by doing something for the Leedon family. Then, we might acknowledge you. Are you rejecting this opportunity?”

“A chance to stabilize the Leedon family with a hundred million. Are you sure you don’t want it?” Aurelia asked indifferently.

“F*ck you!” Spencer cursed.

Aurelia’s eyes, dark and inscrutable, shimmered with amusement. She spoke slowly and deliberately. “I’m waiting to see you regret.”

She turned and walked away.

Just a few steps out, Gideon roared in anger, “Stop her! She can’t go anywhere today. Only when she has thought things through clearly can she leavel”
