Dumping My Ex to Flash Marry the Untouchable CEO novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278

One of the executives discreetly mentioned to Aurora that if this project was executed well, their boss might consider further

collaboration down the line.

Aurora’s eyes lit up. “Mr. Warden, are you serious?”

He nodded confidently, clearly impressed by her. “Absolutely. Opportunities go to those who are prepared. If it were anyone else, I wouldn’t be saying this.”

Aurora instantly understood what he was getting at this project wasn’t just important; it was a potential game–changer.

She nodded. “Got it. I’ll make sure to keep this one firmly in my hands.”

Everyone there had full confidence in Aurora’s abilities, so there was no need to say more.

Her career was blazing forward.

Meanwhile, Tessa had been watching everything unfold from the shadows.

Seeing Aurora thrive like this, how could she possibly stay content?

Her thoughts drifted to Joseph, who had stopped her at the company’s entrance not long ago.

That man could very well be her way in.

Tessa’s red lips curled into a sly smile. “Aurora, I wonder if your dear ex–boyfriend would come looking for you again if he found

out how well you’re doing.

“Hm… After all, the two of you used to be so in love. I’m just helping you rekindle things. No need to thank me.”

She muttered to herself, then pulled up Joseph’s contact

Without a second thought, she dialed his number.

At that moment, Joseph had been stuck at home under Melvin’s watch.

Ever since the incident that got him into the police station and tanked Hunt Enterprises‘ stock, Melvin had grounded him completely, locking him up to reflect on his actions.

As for Judy, she was still staying at Joseph’s apartment. The two had only been communicating by phone.

Melvin had never approved of Judy.

In his eyes, what benefit could a woman with no family background no value possibly bring to Hunt Enterprises?

Judy was never good enough for Joseph.

Judy knew all of this, but there was nothing she could do.

While whispering sweet nothings to Joseph, pretending she couldn’t bear to be apart from him, she was already scouting for her next wealthy target.

So, when Tessa’s call came through, Joseph was still stuck at home, under his mother’s watchful eye, forbidden from stepping

OUL.

Seeing Tessa’s name flash across the screen, he was a little surprised.

After a moment’s hesitation, he picked up.

“Hello? What do you want?” Joseph’s tone was curt.

If it hadn’t been for that embarrassing scene at the Walton Corporation’s front desk, where he mistaken Tessa for Aurora, none of that mess would’ve happened.

Still, Tessa was the eldest heiress of the Walton family–not someone he could afford to offend.

Right now, Joseph was stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Hearing his tone, Tessa instantly understood where his irritation came from.

But she didn’t get angry.

Instead, her voice was calm and light. “Come on, Joseph, why so fired up?”

“We’ve met before, haven’t we? That makes us acquaintances, and who’s to say a chance encounter isn’t just fate in disguise?”

She spoke slowly, almost coaxing, her tone gentle, but her eyes were full of disdain.

If not for the goal of making Aurora look bad, she’d never bother contacting a man like Joseph.

After all the ridiculous drama he’d caused, he was practically a joke in all of Ravenshore.

Joseph listened to her smooth, sweet words and immediately understood that this woman clearly wanted something.

Over the past few days, he’d seen through her type: she wouldn’t lift a finger unless there was something in it for her.

“Go on then, what do you want from me?”
