"As you've learned I did go after you only because I lost a bet with Harlyn in the first place."
Harlan Wallins answered Aurora Foster’s question.
"But now I want to start over. I want to come after you again. Not because of the bet with your younger brother. Aurora, you are special, I can't help having feeling towards you, and I can't help wanting to be close to you.”
Harlan Wallins’s statement sounds grandiose, but those words burst out of his heart.
At the very beginning, Aurora Foster gave him an impression of being just an ugly, stupid and horny i***t. However, after having associated with her, she did not disgust him anymore, instead, she attracted him to her.
Aurora Foster’s original purpose was only to ask Harlan Wallins for recent information about Harlyn. She wanted to know the reason Harlyn
instigated Wallins to go after her.
She didn’t expect that this guy would make use of the opportunity to repeat his confession of love.
In this moment, Aurora Foster had nothing to answer.
"On such a beautiful morning, can’t you say something more reasonable?”
Now the time for their first class was coming up. The school was getting crowded. It seemed Harlan Wallind would not explain Harlyn’s motivation to her.
Maybe he didn’t even know himself.
Aurora sighed and stood up, ready to return to her classroom.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she stood up, the teenage boy grabbed her arm.
"Aurora Foster, I know it's morning, I know I haven’t expressed myself reasonably!"
It was the rush hour of a school day, and there was a crowd walking by. If anyone saw their interaction, there would be plenty of gossip. She threw his hand off of her in haste.
“Harlan Wallins, I don’t mind claiming the same thing again: I‘ve been engaged to someone, I’ve got a fiancé, we’re impossible, don’t you understand?”
Aurora Foster dropped this line and turned around to walk away. Nevertheless, she was stopped by another person unexpectedly.
"Aurora Foster, how dare you tell everybody about your fiancé? You are so shameless. Keep this in mind! Your engagement with Felix Lien has already been cancelled long ago! Now, his fiancée is here!”
It was a seventeen-year-old girl who stopped Aurora. Her face was taken up by angry and contempt.
The girl was no other than the bastard daughter bred by Foster’s father and his mistress.
Angela Foster.
She absolutely hated Angela Foster and her shameless Mother.
Angela Foster stole away her father and her fiancé, and her mother stole away the husband of her mother’s!
These two people had no other skill than stealing.
"Angela, do you regard Lien as my fiancé when I speak of a fiancé? Don’t be silly, he is only a w***e I’ve cast away. He’s cheap. I won’t take the trouble to fight with you for him. You do not need to be so oversensitive.”
Aurora Foster replied easily, but her cold eyes glittered with disgust.
"You... What is this bullshit are you speaking of? How dare you regard my darling Felix as your w***e?”
"Aurora Foster, your mother is a w***e, she had been taken for rides before she married my father. When Foster’s clan asked for her hand, she had taken pregnancy. That bastard child was you! You and your mother, you are the most shameless people in the world. You’ve insulted our Foster clan!"
The arrogance of Angela Foster and her malevolent words insulted not only Aurora herself but her mother as well.
One thing that Aurora hated most was someone speaking evil of her mother. At Angela’s words, Aurora’s fists clenched tightly.
She didn't think about anything. She just punched her fist in no ti and hit Angela Foster in the face.
She punched right in the bridge of Angela’s nose. Angela Foster looked stunned for a long time. Later, she was so angry that she just wanted to fight back. Nonetheless, Aurora held her arm tightly.
"Before you set out to argue with me, you’d better find a mirror and take a look yourself, then, you will realize how ugly you are!”
