Chapter 79 You Must Fight For Sion’s Heritage

Chapter 79 You Must Fight for Sion's Heritage

Aurora returned to her office desk and sorted out the old designs again. She thought out of the box and made the best of everything she still could use. It looked totally different. Stars scattered round the sky, sparkling, and the designs looked noble and classic! She reviewed the new designs over and over and didn't stop to take a breath until she found nothing wrong.

It was almost time to clock out. Aurora logged in her Facebook and texted Ariana, "Dear Ariana, I'm gonna get some beef to make beef soup for father. Will be home a little late."

She switched off the computer, grabbed her handbag and went to the supermarket nearby. When she came out after shopping, she was scared by someone standing in her way, "Maisy? What are you doing here?"

Maisy glanced at her reluctantly, forced a smile and said, "What do you think? Of course I'm here waiting for you!"

Aurora had a bad hunch that something awful was gonna happen. She had fooled Maisy last time and escaped to Bailey and Ariana's wedding. Normally, Maisy would come and get even with her, but so far, she hadn't done anything yet. It had been some time, and Maisy suddenly showed up. Apparently, she had heard Aurora and Sion had moved back to Carroll Manor. So, she wondered if Maisy was gonna get even with her at one time!

"Maisy, how about talking outside?" Aurora said bitterly.

"Why? Can't we just talk here?" Maisy snorted.

She stepped aside a little and tried not to stand in the middle of the way. Seemingly, Aurora was gonna be embarrassed in public. Aurora could tell that they were gonna have a fight and partied unhappily again. Never mind. It happened before.

"Maisy, what do you want from me?" she took a deep breath and said.

"Listen to you! Can't I just talk to you?"

Indeed, that was who she was. That was the way of talking she couldn't be more familiar with.

"Sure." Aurora heaved a sigh.

Maisy glimpsed at her, looked away and said kinda sentimentally, "I know Bailey has cancer."

Aurora was a little surprised to see her with that sad face. But it made sense because she used to love Bailey, and she must be very upset to hear he was seriously ill. But Aurora had no idea what to say to comfort Maisy, who she wasn't close to.

"I know he likes you." Maisy pulled herself together soon and became as realistic as usual, "Did he tell you anything?"

"About what?" Aurora looked at her confusingly.

"Gee!" Maisy was always unhappy with her tactlessness, "For God's sake, the will! He's dying and he must have made a will. Do you know what he's gonna do with his properties?"

It turned out that she mentioned Bailey's health situation only to bring about the will.

"Not a clue. Father didn't tell me anything on it." she said without looking at Maisy.

"Aurora." Maisy called her name tenderly for the first time, "You know you're still married to Sion, and you're on the same boat. You can't have a happy life unless he does. You got it?" "Yeah, of course. I've always hoped the best for him."

"Talk is cheap! Do something!" Maisy frowned and said in a calm voice, "Bailey likes you and you should tell him to give a second thought when he makes a will."

Aurora was stunned and felt kinda breathless, "Sorry, Maisy. I don't think I can do anything with it. Father has his own plan."

"How so? Of course you can do something!"

Maisy looked a little disappointed and desperate, "He's dying and he has lost his mind. Make sure he won't give many of the properties to Ariana. All his stock rights in the company are Sion's."

"If you help Sion win more properties, he'll treat you fairly even if you're gonna divorce him."

By then, Aurora was too shocked to say anything else. Maisy knew Bailey was seriously ill but she didn't care at all. All she wanted was his properties. Not surprisingly, Maisy was always a snob. But Aurora still felt it was very selfish and heartless of her to ask something like that.

"Maisy..." Aurora was choked with words, then she cleared her throat and went on speaking, "I'm afraid I can't help with it."

"How come?" Maisy found it hard to believe and said, "Bailey likes you, and I believe he listens to you! Right?"

Aurora didn't feel like talking with her any more and said firmly, "Enough, Maisy. I won't do that."

"Father will be fine. And, we don't need that stupid will. Sorry. I must go home now. Bye."

Seeing that, Maisy grabbed her by the arm, "We haven't finished. You're not leaving!"

"Maisy! Let go of me!" Aurora's arm hurt a lot and she wanted Maisy to let go of her. However, Maisy suddenly lost her balance and fell down on the floor.

"Oh God! Are you OK?"

When Aurora was about to help her get up, Maisy, lying on the floor, suddenly burst out crying and attracted people's attention.

"Help! My daughter-in-law has hit me! Poor me! Oh Lord!"

"Oh Jesus! I just wanted to talk to her but she pushed me and hit me. What an ungrateful bastard! What have I done to deserve this!"

"Oh Lord! Let me be with you!"

Very soon, Maisy had drawn lots of attention with her very sharp and loud voice and exaggerated acting. More and more people stopped to watch and criticize Aurora. The crowd began discussing loudly and condemning Aurora for being such an ungrateful girl.

"How could she do that to her mother-in-law?"

"Holy shit! Her mother-in-law even can't stand up! Call 911! Call the police and send her to jail!"

Some of them even wanted to shoot videos with their phones, and claimed that they were going to expose her on the internet.

Aurora listened to the noises and felt dizzy. She gritted her teeth, stepped forward to help Maisy get up and whispered at her ear, "Do you really want to be on the news in this way and let them replace out the hidden marriage between Sion and me?"

Hearing that, Maisy was frozen! It had totally slipped her mind! Unbelievably, Aurora had the balls to act against her! Maisy was angry and anxious, but had no other choice but to drop the act though she hated to be manipulated by Aurora. She stood up with the help of Aurora and acted like they were pretty close.

"Sorry! Please don't shoot! It's only a misunderstanding!" Saying it, she simply ignored Aurora and ran away quickly towards the opposite direction.
