Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 188: The Ruse

Genevieve noticed that Magnus looked somewhat angry and quickly explained: "It's nothing serious, they can just retake the exam next semester."

"If they can't even get their diplomas, you really disgrace the Montgomery family name! They are your so-called well-raised sons and daughters!" Magnus grew angrier as he thought about the two.

Aurora felt pity for her father, who had been deceived for so many years, raising troublesome children that weren't his own.

"It's just a diploma, they'll definitely be fine. You all sit down, and Aurora, why don't you join me in the kitchen to peel some fruit?" Genevieve quickly led the troublemaker away, fearing what she might say if she stayed.

Aurora happily agreed, "Sure, I'll help you."

Once they had left, Paul spoke up: "Cousin, you still haven't answered me why Aurora hasn't revealed her identity?"

"It was her grandfather's instruction; he wants Aurora to gain experience. If everyone knew who she was, she wouldn't learn anything."

"Her grandfather is thoughtful indeed. I remember Aurora and Ivy are about the same age, and she hasn't graduated yet either, but she's already been made a manager. I wonder if she can handle it."

"No need to worry, her grandfather knows what he's doing, and I believe in Aurora's capabilities," Magnus spoke highly of Aurora.

Aurora followed Genevieve into the kitchen, where Genevieve coldly asked her, "What exactly are you trying to do?"

"What do you mean? I clearly haven't done anything," Aurora responded innocently, not understanding Genevieve's implication.

"You specifically told your dad about them failing, didn't you want to block them from joining the company so no one would compete with you for it? You're so young, how can you be so cruel, even though they are your siblings?"

"Cruel? Hah..." Aurora found it amusing to hear that word from Genevieve's mouth.

Anyone might call her cruel, but Genevieve certainly had no right. She maintained her smile: "Genevieve, you seem to have misunderstood something."
