The True Heiress is the Reserved Fiancé's Exclusive Memory-Chapter 696 - 715 Young Master Ward’s Fury (6)

On this issue, he was a bit petty.

But——

Could he not be petty?

Just thinking about their interactions made him uncomfortable.

Principles can’t be compromised.

That girl has to figure it out on her own.

Koa Jackson didn’t call either, just put his phone on the bedside table, turned off the lights, and went to sleep.

——

The two of them were in a cold war.

The silence lasted for two whole days, with no contact.

Soon, it was Wednesday afternoon.

Aurora Cooper and Aiden Jiang were hosting guests at Evergreen Manor in the suburbs.

At around seven in the evening, Mia Ginger arrived. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Aiden Jiang was remarrying, but it was Aurora Cooper’s first marriage, so, given the circumstances, Aiden Jiang didn’t want to wrong Aurora, and he informed all the friends he needed to.

The moment Mia Ginger appeared, she naturally drew a lot of attention.

After all——

Bob Ginger had grown up in such a circle and was a boy, so the ladies barely gossiped about him.

Mia Ginger was a girl, lost and then found again.

Now, in less than a year, she had a stepmother; how they would get along naturally made people curious.

Lydia Williams was talking with Aurora Cooper and a few ladies from the circle.

Aiden Jiang, working on post-disaster reconstruction in Peace, would probably return in three to five years and would be expected to get a promotion.

His reputation and prestige were well-known, and people used to give Charlotte Chester some face even though she came from humble beginnings.

But now——

Aurora Cooper was entirely different.

She was the head of the Amanda Fashion Empire, and now that she was back in the country, she was one of the top businesswomen, working in luxury goods and having a very particular style, good personality, and generous demeanor, naturally making her a favored friend among women.

In fact——

Many people thought Aiden Jiang was incredibly fortunate to marry her after Charlotte Chester.

Aurora Cooper was younger and prettier than Charlotte Chester, with a more prominent family background, especially since Amanda Company was already at its peak in wealth.

In this situation, she would undoubtedly have a position in the household.

So, Mia Ginger’s status was quite awkward.

Lydia Williams watched as Mia was led over by the driver, and couldn’t help but smile and say to Aurora, "It’s quite surprising that Mia came."

She also knew about Mia and Koa Jackson getting registered, and it irritated her, so seeing Mia made her uncomfortable. Yet, in front of several ladies, she restrained herself and spoke warmly, mentioning Mia as if she was talking about the weather.

The others weren’t as informed about Mia and Koa Jackson’s situation, and smiled gently, looking at Aurora Cooper.

Aurora Cooper wasn’t fond of the Jacksons, but she still had to be courteous and smiled, "This girl is quite likable, sensible, and ambitious."

Lydia Williams gave her a smiling glance.

She knew about Mia’s car accident and had heard from Zane Jackson about Aurora Cooper’s care for Mia.

It was quite unexpected too.

Seeing Aurora Cooper acting like this depressed her further.

It’s normal for a stepmother to try to please the child of the previous wife.

But——

She was Aurora Cooper, how could she lower herself so much?

While Lydia was contemplating this, Mia approached them, and seeing Aurora, she pursed her lips and called out, "Mom."
