Chapter 52: He's Not My Type

Aurora genuinely didn't know whether to laugh at Gemma for overthinking or mock

her for acting so childishly. She wasn't here today out of kindness to offer advice, but rather to show off, wasn't she? If Aurora actually liked Ian, Gemma's words would have genuinely hurt her. But the young lady seemed to underestimate Aurora's resilience.

After all the experiences she had been through over the years, Gemma really wasn't much of an opponent. Aurora couldn't help but smile as she watched the two of them. "I agree with some of what you just said, Gemma, but not all of it. It's true that Ian is excellent."

Setting aside his academic performance, his character alone was better than many. He remained polite and caring even when others mocked Aurora. This alone spoke volumes about his character. Ian was honest and kind-hearted. When he heard Aurora praising him, Ian suddenly became a bit shy, while Gemma waited to see how Aurora would respond.

"But there is one thing..." Aurora added.

"What thing?" Gemma was already caught in Aurora's trap.

"His eyes." She glanced at Ian, who was wearing glasses.

"Yes, his vision isn't great, but that doesn't affect his excellence," Gemma, who had never complimented Ian before, said this for the first time. However, instead of being pleased, Ian felt disgusted. These were not words from her heart. She was merely using them to strike at Aurora.

Previously, Ian only knew of her vanity and her willingness to sell herself for money, even wondering if she had some compelling family financial need. But he later realized he was wrong. Gemma wasn't acting out of family necessity. It was just vanity and a love for comparison.

But today, he realized that beyond her vanity, she was a woman of a nasty, sharp- tongued character. He could never imagine Gemma treating Aurora so poorly. He knew well about yesterday's incident. Aurora had intentionally fallen into his arms, not because she liked him, but more like she was avoiding something else.

However," she slowed her speech, looking at them both with a cold smile before continuing, "I truly think you're not good enough for Ian, and that's straight from the heart. If you mind that, there's nothing I can do about it. In closing, let me clarify one thing. From the beginning to the end, I have never liked Ian. I don't now, and I definitely won't
