Devil's Prisoner of Love by Prefer

Chapter 353: She Just Wants to Pamper Her

Lunch was served, and it was impossible for Julian and Aurora to shield Hayden and Susan from the toasts. Besides, Julian was worried that Aurora might be hungry, so he took her straight to the family and friends table. Although it was under Aurora's influence that Joaquin had not dined with his son for a long time.

"Julian, isn't it a bit too much to do this on their wedding day?"

Aurora thought of Susan's tear-streaked face she had seen earlier. After all, Susan was a celebrity, and her unflattering photos from today had already been taken, likely soon to hit the headlines.

As for the grudge from three years ago, Aurora felt that Hayden not loving Susan was the best punishment for her.

"Naive Aurora, you don't know what she has done. She arranged everything last night. When I see the wounds on your hand, I think of her. Have you forgotten how she pushed you into the sea last time?"

"That's true."

Aurora felt that the longer she stayed with Julian, the more he spoiled her, to the point where she lost her sense of direction and her past resentment had faded.

"Have some soup first."

Julian immediately served her a bowl of chicken soup.

Joaquin, observing them, frowned deeply.

"Can't she do anything herself? Why must everything be handed to her?"

"What does it matter to you how I pamper my own wife?"

Julian retorted, glaring back at Joaquin, who bristled with anger.

Hearing the word "wife," Aurora blushed. Initially, she resisted Julian's affections, but over time, she had grown accustomed to his kindness. She had even started ignoring how he always picked out her favorite dishes during meals, so much so that she seldom reached for the dishes herself.
