Chapter 301
She had no intention of staying with this kind of trash.
“You don’t even see me as your brother–in–law anymore?”
Sometimes, Julian found himself strange too.
He wanted her to respect him, yet he also wanted to be with her.
This contradiction tormented him at times.
But right now, his goal was crystal clear–he wanted Aurora to be with him.
Aurora let out a laugh. “Don’t you think what you’re saying is hilarious?”
“You claim you like me, yet want me to treat you like my brother–in–law?”
What kind of absurd logic was that?
Even Julian realized how contradictory he sounded.
But the words were already out, taking them back now would only make him look ridiculous.
“Whatever it is, my feelings for you are real.”
His eyes darkened as he looked at her, hoping she would agree to be with him.
“This is pathetic.”

Now that Aurora understood what he was really after, she felt there was no point in wasting another second here.
She’d rather go talk with John York about the details of their projects.
Staying here was pointless.
She had no intention of lingering another moment.
“Enough, I’m leaving. Don’t waste my time.”
Aurora deeply regretted agreeing to have this meal with Julian in the first place.
What had she been thinking? This was a personal embarrassment she’d rather erase.
Above all, it had been a complete waste of time.
As she stood, Julian panicked. “Aurora, where are you going?”
“None of your business.”
Without another word, Aurora opened the door and walked straight out.
Aurora stormed off with long, swift strides, clearly unwilling to waste even a second more in that place.
Staying any longer would’ve made her look downright foolish.
Julian clenched his fists, frustration simmering in his chest.
He’d gone through so much just to get Aurora to agree to this dinner.
How could he let her walk away so easily?
And after this fiasco, there was no way she’d ever agree to meet him again.
He couldn’t afford to let this chance slip away.
He rushed after her, calling out, “Aurora, wait!”
But the sound of his voice only made her walk faster, her steps sharp and determined.
Julian’s gaze darkened, and he picked up his pace.

Julian’s gaze darkened, and he picked up his pace.
In no time, they found themselves in the middle of the restaurant’s main hall.
Naturally, with the advantage of a man’s stride, Julian soon caught up to her.
“Aurora, can’t you just give me a chance?”
There was a note of pleading in his voice. “I really do like you. I don’t want to lose you. I asked you here today because I hoped you’d say yes to being with me.”
“I’m married. You should know that.”
Aurora’s patience was running dangerously thin.
Julian, however, smiled as if that detail meant nothing. “So what? What can that pretty boy even offer you? Whatever it is, I can give you ten times more!
“The Hayes family might not be as big as the Waltons, but at least I’m better than him. And I’ll treat you right–no one would dare hurt you if you’re with me.”
As his emotions surged, Julian stepped closer, reaching out to grab her wrist in what he clearly thought would be a romantic gesture.
But all Aurora felt was disgust.
A wave of discomfort rippled through her chest.
Strangely, when Julian insulted Lucas, it left a bitter taste in her heart.
Just as she was about to take a step back, a sharp female voice, edged with fury, cut through the air.
“What do you think you’re doing?”
