This is good. This is good.

After Mabel was done letting her imagination run wild, she looked at them and said, "Evelyn has had dinner sent over. If you two don't mind the simple fare, you're welcome to join."
"Okay," Aurelia agreed immediately.
Matthew simply gave a slight nod.
When there was no need to speak, he generally remained silent.
Mabel looked at Matthew and snorted. "You may not talk much to me because of our generation gap, but drop the act when you're alone with Auri." I won't forgive him if he were to scare Auri away.
Matthew was rendered speechless.
He distinctly felt that is grandmother was even more disdainful of him that day. I did nothing wrong since I entered the ward, right?
By the time the two of them left the hospital, an hour had already passed.
It was precisely seven in the evening.
As dusk gently fell, the streetlights along the road all lit up.
After glancing at Xavier's message on her phone, Aurelia responded by informing him that she would be home soon. Then, she turned to Matthew at her side. "Mr. Quigley, I won't be returning to Starry Sea Mansion just yet. I need to drop by my mom's place first."
The look in Matthew's eyes was profound as he watched Aurelia, who was calm and composed. Even when she kept Mabel company earlier, Aurelia showed no sign of distress or panic from being wronged or slandered, as if nothing had happened.
He slightly pursed his thin lips.
"Have you seen the trending topics online?" he asked.
Aurelia paused for a moment, figuring Matthew had likely found out about that matter. Therefore, she nodded. "Yes, I've seen them, and I know what the Leedon family is planning to do to me. I'll find a way to resolve it.
Just as Matthew was about to say something else, Aurelia's phone rang
Aurelia glanced at her phone. Before answering the call, she bid farewell to Matthew. Then, while continuing the phone conversation, she headed toward the parking lot. "Charlie, I just left the hospital. The hospital isn't far from home, so I'll be home soon. Yes, don't worry."
Matthew's gaze was profoundly deep as he watched Aurelia's figure gradually recede into the distance.
Gordon approached from a distance, followed by a gentleman in his mid-thirties, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes.
Chapter 33 Not Treating You Well
The distinguished gentleman also spoke up, saying, "Mr. Quigley."
Matthew's expression was cold and stern. "She just left."
Is
"What?" Gordon exclaimed in surprise. A storm of controversy has virtually swept across the internet. The Leedon family has scarcely considered whether Ms. Shaw would end up being forced into hiding due to the scandal. Our public relations are watertight, but would Ms. Shaw be thoroughly upset by the Leedon family's actions?
"In that case, I must hurry to find Ms. Shaw to ensure she doesn't do anything foolish!" Gordon quickly pulled out his phone to search for Aurelia's number. There are too many haters online nowadays, and many people were either driven to take their own lives or fell into depression because of these haters. I need to console Ms. Shaw
"She won't do anything foolish," said Matthew in a deep voice.
Then, he turned to Zayne Luther, who was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. "How quickly can you resolve this matter?"
"As long as Mr. Quigley gives the go-ahead, I can resolve this matter within an hour. I've already coordinated with the PR team, and Susan has started preparing the press release," Zayne said.
Zayne's tone might sound somewhat arrogant, but for those who knew him, they wouldn't be surprised.
Zayne was the legal consultant hired by Quigley Group. He was also the head of the largest law firm in Jacaster, with not a single case lost under his watch.
Matthew glanced in the direction where Aurelia had left with his eyes narrowed. "Await my message at any
time.
"Huh? Aren't we taking action now? The Leedon family has done too many things. They have members involved in the entertainment industry and have a lot of tricks up their sleeves." Gordon was surprised. Mr. Quigley must've planned to help Ms. Shaw upon learning this matter. Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked me to seek Zayne out. Why has he lost his urgency now?
Matthew cast a glance at Gordon.
Startled, Gordon quickly said, "We'll do it your way, Mr. Quigley!"
Zayne looked at Gordon with an amused expression. "It's only been a few days since we last saw each. other, so how come your courage has shrunk? Don't tell me that after experiencing a car accident, it scared you out of your wits despite you suffering no injuries?"
"Shut up!" The corner of Gordon's mouth twitched.
If Gordon were to choose who he despised the most in Jacaster, it would undoubtedly be Zayne, who was standing right in front of him. Zayne, with his insincere smile, is the kind of person who could stab another person in the back
at any moment!
Matthew had grown accustomed to their bickering. He pulled out a cigarette and slowly began to smoke.
He intended to help Aurelia that day to prevent the matter from affecting his grandmother. Unfortunately, Aurelia didn't ask for his help. Let's wait and see. Around seven o'clock, the roads of Jacaster were still somewhat congested. What should have been a half-hour journey ended up taking Aurelia forty-five
minutes.
Chapter 33 Not Treating You Well
When she entered the house, she saw three people sitting on the living room
couch waiting for her.
"Auri!" The trio almost simultaneously spoke up and stood up.
After having dinner just a while ago, the three of them sat on the couch, each engrossed in their own. phones.
Seeing that many people online were discussing matters about Auri and uttering all sorts of unpleasant words about her, they were so infuriated that they wished they could reach out through their phones to confront those nonsense spreaders. What do they know? What right do they have to berate Auri? Where's the conscience of the Leedon family? How could they harm Auri without any guilt? Don't they realize they've gone too far?
The Leedon family might not have cared for Auri, but they did. They felt her pain as if it were their own.
Aurelia watched them, a warm feeling spreading in her heart and a lump formed
in her throat. She knew they would always stand by her side to face anything.
"Mom, Xavier, Charlie."
"Auri, I know everything now. Alas. That Curtis will not end well. How could he treat you like this?" Phyllis wiped her tears.
Just moments ago, she had resolved not to shed a tear. However, the thought of her daughter being wronged by others caused a sharp pang in her heart. Aurelia walked over and embraced Phyllis. "Mom, don't cry. I've known about
these things for a long time. It's not worth shedding tears over a sc*mbag. I've long learned to let go. These things can't harm me in the slightest." Hearing those words, both Xavier and Charlie, who were standing by the side, felt a bitter taste in their hearts.
They couldn't shake off the feeling that Auri had been harboring some secrets lately, seemingly afraid that they would worry.

However, they couldn't even begin to imagine how Aurelia had suffered at the Leedon residence.

Then, she showed them the video footage obtained from the mall's surveillance
camera.
The video was very clear.
The moment Xavier and Charlie saw the video, their previously grave
expressions cased considerably.
"The Leedon family members are truly-" Charlie initially wanted to curse but
quickly caught himself.
