Chapter 32
Chapter 32 “Aurelia, it seems to me that you're good at eating spicy food,” Seth giggled. The soup was so spicy that it gave Aurelia a sore throat. She couldn’t even speak.
She couldn't care more about deference and stood up. After grabbing the cashmere scarf from the couch, she took the fruit and left the Martinez house.
Since Rosa didn’t like it, she took it back to give it to her mother.
She only forgave Seth when he caught up with her and apologized over and over again. She made him promise to live separately with his parents after they got married.
Seth agreed and promised her at that time. But later on, he started scheming for her house behind her back and wanted her to live together with his parents.
His family had never respected her.
Now, Aurelia was amused by the humble Rosa standing in front of her. She had to say that Seth got his acting skills from his mother.
She shook off Rosa’s hand and replied coldly, “Mrs. Martinez, Seth and | had broken up. He’s well aware of the reason for the breakup. | think there’s no need to bring that up here.”
Aurelia didn’t want to go too far and be too straightforward. She gave Rosa a leeway and hoped that she could understand it. But Rosa began to sob more profusely. She took a bank card out of her bag and gave it to Aurelia.
“There’s 100 thousand dollars in it. | know this money is the reason why you argued with Seth. | sold the house in my hometown to scratch together the 100 thousand dollars. | only hope to see that you two can live well together. We will help as much as we can. Aurelia, please forgive Seth and agree to marry him.”
Aurelia looked at the bank card she was holding. She was confused. Could it be that Rosa and Seth had changed their attitude? While she was still thinking, her colleagues around her were already stirred up. Most especially Kimberly.
Kimberly walked up to Aurelia in her expensive high heels, and admonished bitchily, “Aurelia, don’t you still think about Seth? Now, even his mom has come to apologize to you. Just forgive him and agree to marry him. After that, you can live a cozy life. All you have to do is take good care of your family.”
Aurelia didn’t miss out on the mockery in Kimberly’s eyes. So this was what Kimberly meant when she said Aurelia couldn’t get over Seth in public.
Aurelia assumed that Kimberly must have had something to do with Rosa’s sudden a appearance.
Aurelia opened her mouth and tried to explain. But, she was interrupted by all the persuasions around her.
“Aurelia, don’t be so fussy. It’s not easy for this old lady either. She even sold her house for you and Seth. You're going too far if you're still angry.”
“Money is more important than love in this corrupt society. | feel really bad for Seth.”
“Aurelia, you’re a grown-up now. You're not in your early twenties, so you can’t be that picky anymore. You have to be realistic and think about your own conditions as well.”
Everybody shared their opinion. They sounded as if they were trying to persuade Aurelia to get back with Seth. But in fact, they were rubberneckers. If Aurelia refused to marry Seth, that would be the reality of materialism. When Rosa saw the scene, she raised her hand to wipe her tears. But, there was a smirk on the corner of her mouth.
Ayoung lady without a strong psychological defense mechanism would be wavered by those words. She might even think that since the Martinez family had given her the money, it meant. that they had shown their stance and apologized. Everyone would think she was too fussy if she continued to get angry. In the end, she would agree to marry Seth muddle-headedly.
However, Aurelia had seen through Seth and the Martinez family. She would never believe that Rosa, who used to turn her nose up at her, would sell her house to scratch together the money.
She took a deep breath and looked at her colleagues. “Since you all believe her so badly, you can all be her witnesses. Don’t think that I’m bullying an old lady.”
As she finished, she handed the bank card to Millie who stood beside her. “Millie, there’s an ATM at the corner of the lobby. | think the password is Seth’s birthday, which is 960522. Can you go and check the balance of the card?” NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
