Chapter 224 Become a Target
Slade spit out a rette butt and said, “Of course! Once we deal with her, we can get a lot from Mr. Gates. “Let’s go.
Get in the car.” Several men got into two cars, following Terry’s car. Terry drove home and did not notice that they
were followed on the way. “Mr. Waltoǹ, Ms. Bennet.” Connor welcomed them at the gate.
This was the first time Aurora felt such respect after the Bennet family went bankrupt. She followed Terry quietly.
On the way, all the servants were respectful to her.
Ms. Bennet, please have a seat.” Connor was unusually nice.
“Aurora, you’re finally here. I’ve been expecting you!” Kate came out with a smile, followed by several rich ladies.
When those rich women saw Aurora walk in, they felt offended.
“Mrs. Walton, is she the honorable guest you’ve been waiting for?” one of those ladies asked.
“Yes, do you have a problem with it?” Kate raised her eyebrows, grabbed Aurora’s hand, and added, “This is the girl
my son has taken a fancy to. Sooner or later, she will be a member of our family. Please show her more respect.”
“Congratulations! We’ll leave you to enjoy your family reunion.”
Those women exchanged looks. They dared not to argue with Kate, so they chose to leave with fake smiles.
“Don’t take them to heart. They listened to the rumors and don’t know you,” Kate explained.
“It’s nothing,” said Aurora as she forced a smile.
She thought, if I let the opinions of these people bother me, I would have long been depressed.
I’m more curious about the attitudes of the Walton family. They are unusually nice to me.
Is it all in my head?
Terry, your dad is in the study. Go get him. And you may serve the dishes,” Kate ordered the servants after she
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgave Terry the instruction.
“Yes, Madam.”
Aurora was flattered by Kate’s kindness.
“Take this place as your home. And even if you refuse Terry, I won’t blame you.’
As Kate spoke, she patted Aurora’s hand,
“Frankly speaking, ever since Terry’s accident, I have experienced a lot and thus got to know the true nature of
some people. I saw what happened between you and the Jarret family. You are a good girl.”
Aurora looked down and remained silent.
Kate was still talking while Bob and
Terry got downstairs together.
Kate, stop. said with a smile. are scaring her.” Bob
The Walton family took good care of
Aurora at the dinner table.
It was as if Aurora was their daughter-in-law. Aurora didn’t believe
After all, the Walton Group was rich and powerful, Bob did not need to carry favor with her for no reason.
“Aurora, no, should I call you Ms. Bennet now?”
Finally, the moment for true words!
Aurora put down the knife and fork in her hand and raised her head with a smile, “Mr. Walton, you don’t have to
beat around the bushes.”
Terry, who was sitting opposite her, suddenly frowned, but Káte calmed him down. !’Your dad wants to know her
more. Stay silent.”
Terry’s eyes darkened as he looked at Aurora.
Aurora knew what Terry was thinking about and gently shook her head.
Only then did Terry start eating again.
“I heard a few old friends mention that you wanted to revitalize the Bennet
Group and even signed a contract with the Buchanna Group. What a remarkable achievement!”
“Mr. Walton, I always appreciate your honesty. So it would be better if you were more direct. And I am sure I won’t
be able to enjoy the food until you speak the truth.” Aurora liked to make things clear.
Because of Terry, she didn’t want her relationship with the Walton family to worsen.
“Alright then,” Bob continued, “I’ll get to the point. My son has been pursuing you for a long time, but I haven’t
given him my consent for various reasons. Today, I promise you that you’ll get our blessings if you truly love each
other.”
Terry’s eyes lit up.
“Thank you, Dad!”
Aurora made no move or comment.
She knew that Bob had more to say,
Bob looked at Aurora with a smile. “I also know that it is not easy for you to bring the Bennet Group to the old
glories. Because of your relationship with Terry, I will not ignore the plight of your company. I know you have signed
a contract with the Buchanna Group. If you need investment or anything, please do not hesitate to ask.”
Aurora wondered, he sounds so nice… He even paves a road for me.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe wants me to believe that the Walton Group will be mine if I say yes. But things are much more complicated.
Aurora blinked and said, “Mr. Walton, a consensus has been reached between the Buchanna Group and the Bennet
Group.
It’s very kind of you to offer me help, but I need no help right now. Besides, what’s between me and Terry is not
what you think it is.” “Aurora,” Terry got anxious, “My dad just wants to help you.”
“The Bennet Group receives no help now.
I’m afraid that the company will fall into the wrong hands if I accept any help.” Because of what happened between
her and Zac, Aurora became rather cautious. Aurora would not fall for the same trick twice. Hearing those words,
Bob lost his composure. Bob had been in the business world for years and had seen many temperamental young
people, but he seldom saw someone as stubborn as Aurora even though stubbornness would do her no good!
Aurora reminded Bob of someone else. That was Zac!
Bob thought, at a young age, Zac controls the economy of a city, so he can be arrogant. But the Bennet family is
nothing like before. How could Aurora refuse to give me the face?
We already sacrificed a lot by allowing her to be part of the family. And she refused to give us any benefits. More
than that, she’s rude to Terry! The smile on Bob’s face vanished. “Ms. Bennet, as they said, you are hard to
persuade.”
“I can’t take the risk. Mr. Walton, thank you for your hospitality, but I don’t think I deserve your kindness.” As Aurora
spoke, she stood up and walked out. No one dared to stop her.
“Shawn was stubborn, and so is his daughter!” Bob was embarrassed by Aurora, so he mentioned her father’s
name in a fit of anger. Aurora stopped after hearing that. She turned and stared at Bob Terry knew Aurora. Seeing
her dark face, he knew what she was going to say. So he hurriedly said, “Aurora, that’s just a suggestion. My dad
has no intention to take over the Bennet Group.” Bob snorted, “He’s right. Your weak company is worth none of my
attention. If it wasn’t for Zac, I wouldn’t have invited you to dinner!
