StarNovelChapter 584 Aurelia strolled into the diner with her son, William, trailing behind, eager for a hearty lunch.
Megan sauntered over and slid into the booth across from her, a smirk playing at the corner of her mouth.
"Joining us for a bite?" she quipped, her voice dripping with faux sweetness.
“Wouldn't you want to?” Megan shot back, her gaze lingering over Aurelia, scanning for clues.

A flash of rage sparked in Megan's eyes, and she abruptly stood up to seize the scarf swiftly and yanked it away to reveal a vivid love bite.
Aurelia grabbed her wrist, and Yuna, who had been sitting quietly, also rose to her feet, gripping Megan's wrist tightly. "Let go, or you'll regret it” Yuna warned, her voice calm but laced with a dangerous undertone.
Megan released her grip, her eyes fixated on the mark on Aurelia’s neck. Seems like you had an enjoyable evening, she insinuated with a tone reeking of envy.
Aurelia laughed coldly. "A mosquito bite is all it is. Why the fuss? And even if | did have a man over, what's it to you?" Megan's anger surged. "If you were sneaking around with my husband, it's my business." Aurelia motioned for Yuna to take William to another table. Some conversations werent for young ears.
"Megan, aren't you the pot calling the kettle black? If I recall correctly, you stole your man from me." Megan's face turned pale, then rapidly filled with rippling anger. "It was fair game. You wouldn't have stood a chance if | hadn't stepped out. I'm merely taking back what's mine. He never loved you. It's me who he's always wanted. If he didn't have feelings for me, | wouldn't have won him back no matter how hard I tried." The words struck Aurelia like a knife, hitting her right where it hurt most.
Yes, if Leopold had no feelings for her, their old flame could never have reignited.
Whenever she thought of that, it was like a thorn piercing her heart, unable to remove it without causing agonizing pain.
“If he loves you, then why worry?" Aurelia retorted.
Megan clenched her teeth. “I'm pregnant and can't sleep with him much. | have to guard against home wreckers." Aurelia's laugh was bitter. "Isn't that your signature move? That's how you became Mrs. Stirling, isn't it?" A murderous glint passed through Megan's eyes. “| won't let anyone steal my husband. If someone tries, they'll pay dearly." Aurelia met her gaze unflinchingly, her eyes full of warning. “Don’t threaten me. I'm well aware of your ties with the AK Group.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe police are on to you. Do you think you'll get away with it if I report you to the police anonymously?" Megan's mouth twitched as if stung. "Do you have evidence?" "How do you know | don't?" Aurelia shrugged nonchalantly, recalling the recorded conversation she had with Kerry.
“If something happens to me, the evidence goes straight to the cops. We'll both go down, and neither will come out unscathed.” Megan's forehead veins pulsed with tension.
She wanted to strangle Aurelia right there. If Aurelia were out of the picture, her position as the matriarch of the Stirling family would be secure.
“I was forced into it. I'm not one of the AK Group's people. They made me do everything." Aurelia leaned in, her voice a low threat. "If anything happens to me, no one will believe your excuses." Megan's fists tightened. She had never imagined being threatened by Aurelia or having her fate in someone else's hands.
She could have snuffed Aurelia out at any moment, yet her life was inexplicably tied to Aurelia. The thought drove her to the brink of madness. If only there were a perfect solution, a way to eliminate Aurelia and keep herself out of harm.
