?Chapter 1045:


    Aurora panicked, turning to Joelle for help. “Mom!”


    Joelle said sternly, “Adrian,e with me for a second.”


    With his wife stepping in, Adrian had no choice but to follow, whether he wanted to discuss it or not.


    As her parents left the room, Aurora lowered her head in guilt. “It’s all my fault. I made them argue.”


    Molly scoffed. “Oh, Aurora, don’t overthink it. If you’re going to me someone, me Dunn. Why did he have to fall for you of all people?”


    With her phone confiscated, Aurora hadn’t spoken to Dunn in days. Just hearing his name made her heart ache. She used to think Lynda was being dramatic with all her crying and fighting over love. Now, she wasn’t any different.


    Wanting to go back to school wasn’t just about Dunn—it was about keeping herself busy, so she wouldn’t think about him all the time.


    At that moment, Rnd came downstairs.


    “Where have you been?” Molly asked.


    “It’s none of your business.”


    “How is it not my business? If you go and cause trouble again, Mom will be the one cleaning up after you!”


    Rnd leaned back in his chair, every bit the carefree teenager. “Are you jealous?”


    Molly scoffed and rolled her eyes. She and Rnd never got along. If they weren’t rted, they’d probably want to kill each other.


    Rnd crooked a finger at her. “Come closer. I’ll tell you something.”


    “I don’t want to! You must be up to no good.”


    “Stop talking nonsense. Come here.”


    Molly narrowed her eyes, wary but unable to resist the challenge. She stepped closer, arms crossed.

    Rnd leaned in and whispered in her ear, “I was just video calling with Lucas, and there was a really beautiful woman next to him. Her body is amazing.”


    Molly nearly lost her bnce. “Why are you telling me?”


    “No reason. Just thought I’d share.”


    Molly straightened, suddenly feeling restless. Without a word, she spun around and hurried to her room.


    Aurora shook off the lingering mncholy. “Hey, what’s Molly up to?”


    “Don’t ask me,” Rnd replied. “She’s always got something brewing.”


    “Okay.” Aurora turned to him. “Rnd, how are you holding up? Is everything going smoothly at thepany?”


    Rnd was currently working at Miller Group, starting from the bottom. He was required to gain firsthand experience in every department within thepany over the next three years—a grueling regimen designed to give him a deep, practical understanding of each position’s intricacies.


    Though Adrian didn’t like him, Joelle treated him as her own son. Adrian had no choice but to fulfill her wishes and train him.
